THERE IS NO -TRAIL.
It is a Crime to Tempt Men
to Start to Klondike... v
Seattle, Wash., Sept. T2.
The steamer Georp-e Starr ar
rived today from Skaguay
bay. She brought back men
who could not stand the trail
of White Pass. They gave
up and have come south to
winter and will return home.
Capt. Struve ol this city
spent thirty days trying to get
over the summit and failed.
He went from here with one
of the best equipped parties
that has p-cme north. After
thirty days hard work and the
expenditure of a large amount
of money they succeeded in
getting their outfit to the ford
of the river just below the
summit. They th2n gave it up
and sold their outfit. Capt.
Struve says: "It is a crime to
tempt men to try to go over
the Skaguay trail. There is
no trail there. It can not be
described. You can not paint
it black enough. I stored my
provisions and will try it again
next February."
TWENTY-FOUR KILLED.
A Curiosity to See a Blast Go
Off Proved Fatal.
City of Mexico, Sept 12.
Twenty-four persons, mairly
spectators of the great blast at
Panuela's quariy on the Vera
Cruz railway, were instantly
killed yesterday. The blast
went off and the people rush
ed forward to see its' effect,
when a shower of rocks fell on
them. Two cavalrymen were
on p-uard and were killed with
horses. Many more people
were wounded. The quarry
supplies rock for tlie Vera
Cruz harbor improvements.
COUNTERFEIT DOLLARS,
Galveston, Texas, Septem
ber 11. A clever counterfeit
silver dollar has made its ap
pearance in Galveston and has
gotten into pretty general cir
culation. So far nobody ap
pears to know wrhere there dol
lars come from, but dozens of
them are being thrown out by
the banks every day.
They are supposed to be of
the mintage of 1896, and bear
the mark of the New Orleans
mint. They are perfect in size
and the dies are excellent.
But the milling on the edges
is not good and the coin is
Iio;ht weip-ht. Neither does it
have the true ring of the gen
uine article. But they are good
enough to pass under ordinary
circumstances as is evidenced
by the fact that stones are tak
ingithem only to have them
thrown out at the banks.

SE.YEN CASES OF
YELLOW FEYBR.
Six of the Twelve Suspicions
Cases and One "Other Case
Stamped.
New Orleans, La., Sept. 12.
Shortly before noon to day
the hoard of health officially
declared six of the suspicions
cases of fever on St. Claude
street to be yellow fever. A
couple of hours subsequently
the board announced another
pronounced case of yellow fev
er at Miro and Esplanade
streetSj in the lower part of the
city, but a mile or more away
from the infected square. The
announcement of the first six
cases as yellow fever were not
unexpected, although it was
hoped from the delay on the
part of the experts that these
cases were simply of bilious
malaria. No general alarm has
resulted, although the news
rapidly spread through the
city. The authorities do not
believe thai the situation is
materially worse than it was
four or five days ago, and they
are still confident of their abi
lity with modern sanitary ap
pliances to successfully quar
antine the infected diatricts.
The official bulletin of the
board of experts declaring the
St. Clande street cases to be
yellow fever was received by
President OHiphant soon after
11 o'clock. Dr OHiphant itn
mediately sent for members of
the press and gave out the re
port, which was signed by Drs.
Lemonnier, Touatre, Bickham
Petit and Paham of the board
of experts, and Dr. Deveron,
the atteuding physicinn.
EFFECT OF SILVER'S
FALL ON MEXICO.
Manufacturers Believe They
Can Export Many Things
to Gold Standard Conn
tries at a Profit.
City of Mexico, September
12. It is not believed that the
president will in his message
announce any radical change
in the currency policy. The
manufacturing and agricultu
ral interests are nuanimoua for
the retention of the silver
standard.
r It is belieTed that at the
present price of wheat here,
wheat flour can be shipped to
the United States at a profit,
a3 the grain is grown aud flour
made on the silver basis.
Wheat in some parts of the
country is selling at prices
equal to 50 to 60 cents gold per
American standard buahel.
Various kinds, of manufac
tures can be exported to the
United States. It is believed
'that a method of tanning
'leather has been discovered
equal to the best American
process and If thisx proves cor
rect will work a, revolution in
modern shoe manufacture.
Manufacturers are looking into

TINDER MARTIAL LAW.
Hazleton, Pa., Is the
3amp
Ground of Soldiers. Riot
Probable.
Hazleton, Pa., September 12
The siluation here tonight is
graver than it has been at any
time since the bloody affray of
j?naay aiternoon. mere is
strong reason to fear a conflict
between the strikers and the
military tomorrow and there is
an indication that from five to
seven thousand more miners
will join the malcontents. Feel
ing continues high against
Sheriff Martin and his deputies
and the intensity of the situa
tion is such that a sudden turn
of the head or a word spoken
above the ordinary tone brings
a running crowd The soldiers
are watchful and ready for any
emergency and the people of
the town are in a state which
may easily become a panic.
An incident of ugly omen oc
curred during the funeral of
three of the victims this after
noon. While services were be
ing held in St. Joseph's church
about 2000 of the foreigners
were congregated about the
doors. A number of them rais
ed their voices and if. is declar
ed by eye-witnesses that a
policeman -stationed near the
door became nnduly officious.
Instantly an ominous mutter
ing followed, mingled with
scowling looks and clenched
fists. Word was immediately
carried indoors to Rev. Father
Aust. He hurried out to the
door and buudled the men who
seemed most quarrel-some into
the church. A few words of
counsel to them prevented
further demonstrations.
Trouble is iu the air and if
it is to come the time will be
tomorrow morning. This is clear
from the words used tonight by
General Gobin of the Third
brigade. The striking miners
have made elaborate prepara
tions for a demonstration at
the funeral of ten of the victims,
which is fixed for half past 1
o'clock in the morning. The
military authorities are deter
mined that nothing of the kind
shall ba permitted, and declare
from this time there shall be no
marching of any kind whether
during funerals or otherwise.
This resolution is not generally
known and the miners are go
ing on with their arrangements.
A STORYETTE.
Once when Gen. Butler was
in jfortiand a great reception!
bad been arranged in his honor
and the largest hall in the town
was engaged to hold it in. The
place was lavishly decorated
and one white muslin banner
especially attracted the gen
pral's attention. On it was paint
ed in large black letters: "Gen.
Benjamin F. Buttier, the hero
of Five Forks." And beneath
the big letters somebody had
written: "And goodness only
knows how many spoons."

MEXICAN MISCELLANY.
No Change In the Monterey
Standard Is Likely To Be
Recommended.
City of Mexico, Sept. 12.
It is not believed that the
President will in his message
announce any radical change
in
the currency policy. The
matiiifacturinp; and apricultural
interests, are unanimous for the
retention of. the silver stand
ard. It is believed - that at the
present price .of wheat herd
wheat flour can be shipped to
the United States at a profit,
as the p-rain is grown and
flour made on the. silver basis.
Wheat in some parts of the
country is selling at .prices
equal to 50 to 60 cents gold
per American standerd bushel
Various lines of manufactures
can be exported to the United
States, among them some
grades of hats and leather
work. It is believed that a
method of tanninp; leather has
been discovered equal to the
best American process and if
this proves correct Mexican
leather can be manufactured
in modern shoe factories and
the product exported at a good
profit. Manufacturers are look
ing into this matter of exporta
tion to gold using countries.
