Special to The Herald
VICTORIA, 13. C, March 15.—Matters nt
Skaguay are rapidly approaching a crisis.
This does not apply to health conditions,
tor the epidemic of spinal meningitis ap
pears to be exciting much less alarm—but
to the administration of the town. On
one side are the respectable citizens, sup
ported by recently arrived federal soldiers;
on other, the organized subjects nnd sup
porters of "Soapy" Smith. The latter
have lately been setting all law and order
at defiance; cases of robbery, shooting,
and less serious crimes being of dally oc
currence.
Sunday night, the Cth inst., Alex McLean,
a prominent resident, was sandbagged Just
outside of his home. The following morn
ing twelve highway robberies were re
ported, while from a short distance up the
trail, Just beyond the military encamp
ment, word was received of a cold-blooded
murder, the victim being H. Bet n, an in
bound miner. He had been shot at vert
close range, his assassin evidently having
sprung upon him from ambush und thrust
the weapon In his face, which was torn
and powder-burned. As the body was
not robbed, the motive for the crime can
only be guessed.
It was chiefly these Incidents that de
cided the respectable element that the time
for action had come. Citizens, accordingly,
conferred with the Infantry officers, and
a week ago this morning posted conspicu
ous notices, warning all concerned that
all gambling rooms, "flimsy" and sure
thing games must be closed, and that al'
objectionable characters must leave by 1
o'clock the same day.
At the appointed hour two companies of
infantry appeared on the scene, and, pay
ing no attention to the threats of the
tough element, closed all the objectionable
places. The round-up was accomplished
with rifles ready, and "Soapy" Smith's
party contented themselves, perforce, with
muttered promises of future vengeance.
A second conference of officers and citi
zens- was held soon after, 101 persons being
present, at which It was decided to issue
the following proclamation:
"Warning! A Word to the Wise Should
be Sufficient! AU confidence, bunko and
sure-thing men and all other objectionable
characters are notified to leave Skaguay
and White Pass road Immediately, and to
rcnwlnjaway. Failure to comply with this
warainpSwJl'-bir foilcjpv Qflprompt ao
■tion/ BttWaßd CASLX %»9 m -"
This notice was productive of a meeting
of the opposition faction the same night, at
which dire revenge was threatened, and
the following counter proclamation, draft
ed by "Soapy" Smith himself, adopted:
"Warning! The body of men styling
themselves "101" are hereby notified that
any overt act oemmitted by them will
promptly be met by the law-abiding citi
zens of Skaguay, and each member and his
property will be held responsible for any
unlawful act on their part, and the Law
and Order society, consisting of 817 citi
zens, will see that Justice is dealt out to
Its fullest extent, as no blackmailers or
vigilantes will be tolerated.
"(Signed) THE COMMITTEE."
The "101" have the military behind them,
however, and their leader, Major J. A.
Strong, does not anticipate even that ex
treme measures will be necessary fn rid
ding the town of Its undesirable popula
tion. This they are determined to do.
Gambling houses were still closed when
the Islander sailed. No gambling houses
were running anywhere, and the sentries
paced the street, assuring protection to
life and property.
THE SALMON SEASON
SAN FRANCISCO, March 16.-(By As
sociated Press.) The bark Electra, the
first of the Alaska Packers' association's
fleet, sailed today for the Alaskan can
neries, taking with her a large crowd of
fishermen. Among the number were sixty
seven Italians, and about 200 Chinese. The
Alaska Packers' association will send
about twenty more vessels to Kodlak and
other fishing points this season. The fleet
has been secured already, and will take a
great many people away from San Fran
cisco, Including sailors, workmen for the
canneries and Chinamen.
NEW DIGGINGS FOUND
PORTLAND, Ore., March 15.-Albert J.
Paul, who today returned from Southeast
ern Alaska, states 'that Just before he left
Haines mission a report of a remarkably
rich strike on Long Shorty creek, which
flows into Yukutat bay, was brought down.
The discovery became known through the
disagreement of a party that had gone over
to locale all the best claims. The discov
erer arranged with ten men to go with him
and locate claims where he should desig
nate on condition that they should sell out
to him for $10,000. One of the men who
had mane the agreement refused to stand
by It and through him the strike became
known. The new strike is in American ter
ritory and Paul states a large number left

OTTAWA, Ont., March 15.—The house of
commons rushed the Yukon railway bill
through tho committee in less than half
an hour today. A clause In the bill pro
vides that a majority of the directors of the
road must be British subjects. The bill

It will go to the senate.
THEY LEFT
SEATTLE, Wash., March 15.—The
steamer Rosalie arrived at midnight from
Skaguay. Among her passengers were
about half a dozen gamblers, who had
heeded tho warning of the committee of
101 and left Skaguay. A number of others
stopped at Juneau and Fort Wrangel.
J. A. Costello, a well known citizen of
Seattle was also among the passengers.
He reports everything quiet at Skaguay.
According to Costello, Colonel Anderson
took no part In closing the gambling games
at Skaguay. It was done by' Deputy

far no action has been taken by the mili
tary.

be made as fast as the steel can be rolled.
Letters on Fire
The department responded to an alarm
from box 32. at the corner of Los Angeles
and First streets, at 2 oclock this morning,
the cause being a small blaze In N. W.
Montague & Co.'s store at 122 North Los
Angeles street. In some manner the letter
flies against the wall caught fire and were
blazing when first seen. The chemical ex
tinguished the fire. The exact damage
it not known, as the articles burned were
various papers and letters relating to the
firm's business. Sufficient alarms were
turned in to warrant the belief that the
whole town was on fire.
STATE NOTES
Company C of the Fifth infantry, N. G.
C, at Petaluma, is making an effort to In
crease its strength to the full limit. At a
special meeting last night thirty applica
tions for membership were received.
Mrs. Amelia Clark of Berkeley at
tempted to cross the railroad track ahead
of a Sap Francisco train, yesterday. She
was knocked down, her skull fractured
and three ribs broken. Her recovery Is
doubtful.
W. T. McCoy, Indicted by the United
States grand jury at San Francisco some
time ago for unlawful cutting of timber
on government land, has been arrested at
Atkins Mills, Shasta county. He has been
released on bail.
Thomas E. Clark, assistant district at
torney, was arrested at Visalia yesterday
on a charge of threatening to fill William
Kcttner, an Insurance and real estate
agent, with buckshot. The trouble orig
inated over a water ditch.
The trial of Albert Hoff for the murder
of Mrs. Mary Clute began at San Fran
cisco yesterday. The day's proceedings de
veloped no new evidence. As the witnesses
gave their testimony the prisoner showed
that he was laboring under a very great
mental strain.
John E. Kirk died at Grldley last even
ing aged 48. He was born near Richmond,
Ray county, Mo. In 1876 he organized a
harvester company and became wealthy
from this and other business enterprises.
His brother Is superintendent of schools of
Fresno county.
A telegram received at Alameda states
that Dr. Guide- F. Verbeck, a pioneer mis
sionary, who had labored In Japan thirty
eight years, died at Tokio last Wednesday.
He spoke the Japanese language fluently
and had occupied positions of trust under
the Japanese government. His family re
sides tn that city.
The grocery store of Wollncr & Ruffner
at Stockton was entered by burglars last
night and between $60 and $70 taken from
its hiding place in the cellar. It had been
the custom of the proprietors to secrete ln
the basement each evening what money
came in after banking hours. This makes
the fourth time the store has been robbed.
The pioneer fruit firm of Luke G. Sreso
vlch & Co. of San Francisco, one of the
most extensive and oldest houses in that
line on the coast, finds itself in financial
difficulties and has been obliged to sus
pend, owing to Its inability to meet its
obligations, amounting to abouLs3o,tX)o. The
Bank of California is among the heaviest
creditors.
Edna Wallace Hopper has brought suit
at San Francisco for a divorce from De
Wolf Hopper, the well known operatic star.
She has also begun similar proceedings ln
New York. Her attorneys at San Francisco
refuse to make public any more facts re
garding the case than are contained in the
complaint, which gives as cause* of action
wilful desertion and failure to provide.
Suit was commenced yesterday on two
heavy claims against the estate of the late
George D. McLean, a Nevada county cap
italist, who died on November 4th last.
The claimants are Dr. Henry B. Welch and
Dr. J. Perault. The claim of Dr. Welch is

liam Clarkaon on the charge of embezzling
bullion of the value of 170 from the United
States mint in that elty on the 28d day of
February last. It is said that the amount
of bullion stolen by Clarkson was much
greater than that specified In th* Indict
ment, but the charge I* confined to the
■pacific offense which th* government may
i b* able to prove.
MUSIC NOTES
The work of the Los Angeles Symphony
orchestra continues to m< et with very
gratifying appreciation; indeed, the audi
ence at the- fifth concert yesterday after
noon, in point of both numbers and enthu
siasm, was all that could be desired. The
program was perhaps* a little top-heavy
for popular taste, the two big number*
coming together, while It certainly proved
too iong—of over two hours' duration. Yet
there were some irrepressible people who
are such slaves to the encore habit that
they were inconsiderate enough 10 ask Mr.
Wilde to return to the piano after his
thoroughly exhausting effort in Rubin
stein's concerto.
Tho weakest part of the orchestra Is un
doubtedly Its brass; the cornets are vety
fair, though they cannot always supply
the place of trumpets, which are badly
needed; the horns are uneven, though a
very improved tone was produced in the
andante of the Rubinstein Concerto, ln
which accompaniment these Instruments
have for a time quite a prominent
part; one t.ombone is well and the other
is sick. Another assertive fiaw In the in
struments was an apparently loose string
in the bass, which was frequently annoy
ing.
The aeouiiition of Mr. ,T. Bond Francisco
to tho first violin's desk is a matter for
congratulation. There was already a
marked Improvement from the "ragged"
bowing of his colleagues, which will be>
still greater if the dependence oil the con
cert master Is religiously observed. Mr.
Hamilton conducted with control, vigor
and intelligence. In the "Rubinstein Con
certo" he paid rather more attention to
conducting his orchestra than to accom
panying Mr. Wilde, which once or twice
somewhat disconcerted the pianist, who
was further handicapped by not having
the confidence to essay the task without
the score In front of him. Furthermore,
this concerto Is a masterpiece, and re
quires the temperament and touch of a
master. Whatever Mr. Wilde's ambition,
and whatever his earnest work, he
has not yet attained the ability
to please a critical audience with
such an effort. His endeavor, his
practice and much of his technlcque, were
entirely laudable, but his enterprise in this
instance was mistaken, and the manage
ment erred in encouraging It. Mr. Wilde
is evidently an earnest worker, but he only
succeeded in maintaining a monotonous
tone, barren of relief and expression. The
accompaniment was really more Interest
ing than the solo, and) developed some ex
cellent work on the part of the orchestra.
The program opened with the "Corona
tion March," from Meyerbeer's "Prophet."
The splendid swing of the music was some
what missed, and at the finale the drum
came In with a belated jog trot about half a
beat behind the conductor. Despite the
recorded criticism that Cherubini's over
ture to Anacreon is "enchanting and
incomparable," its rendering yesterday
did not reveal these qualities.
The delightful melodies and skillful
elaborations Haydn's "Surprise Sym
phony" afforded a very pleasant relief af
ter the labored concerto, and was
fairly Interpreted by the orchestra
throughout, but the most satisfactory and
faultless number on the program was the
"Overture to Wilhelm Tell," doubtless due
to thorough familiarity on the part of the
orchestra-
Candid criticism of such an organization
as the Symphony orchestra, of which every
music-loving Angeleno is properly proud,
should surely not be the cause of any of
fense. These concerts are of very dis
tinct educational value, and If a critic, In
a humble sort of way, attempts, without
claiming infallibility, to point out defects,
he should not be pounced upon as ingrate
or mischievous. The orchestra Is com
posed of earnest professional musicians,
who have broad enough temperaments to
discriminate between fulsome praise and
Just judgment.
A very pleasing feature of the concert
was the appearance of Miss Annie B.
Shepard, who is the soprano of the First
Congregational church. Miss Shepherd's
clear, sympathetic and true voice was
heard to advantage in the great aria from
Mendelssohn's Elijah, "Hear Te, O
Israel." Recalled, (he soprano gave, in
very pleasing style, Schubert's "Serenade,"
which was very well accompanied by the
full orchestra.
000
A delightful piano and song recital was
given at the Blanchard-Fltzgerald hall last
evening by Mrs. Justin Kay Toles and Mr.
and Mrs. T. E. Rowan, Jr. Mrs. Toles is
one of our very best pianists, and (he good
voices of Mr. and Mrs. T. E. Rowan, Jr..
have for some years been highly valued
in Los Angeles. Unfortunately Tor ua.
Mr. and Mrs. Rowan have decided to re
move to San Diego, and the recital last
night was In the nature of a farewell per
formance. The program was skillfully
conceived, preserving a very attractive
balance. Mr. Rowan opened with a group
of three songs by Smith, Nevln and Tostl,
respectively, and sang In excellent voice,
and with much expression. Mrs. Rowan's
first number was Spohr's "Romanes," but
the latent power of her clear and sympa
thetic voice was better developed In her
second selection, Liszt's "King of Thule."
Mrs. Toles Is gifted with beautiful hands,
and true musical expression to guide them;
she is an Ideal accompanist, but her com
plete domination if her instrument was
admirably Illustrated tn selections from
Schumann, Schubert, Schutt and Chopin.
Especially in the latter's ballade, op. 1.7,
Mrs. Toles showed her power of technicque
and expression. Mr. and Mrs. Rowan's
voices blend together delightfully, and
the little program was very happily con
cluded with three "Tuscan Folk Songs"
of Caracciolo. Tha Rowans are young
and earnest musicians, who deserve suc
cess, which everyone will wish them in
their new home.
