THE KLONDIKE TRADE.
Merchants of San Francisco Are
Alive to the Importance of
the Traffic,
iaps and Folders for Distribution in
the East— Success in Raising
Money for the Work.
The Alaskan trade committee at a ses- i
Bion yesterday afternoon transacted some ;
important business. Steps were taken j
immediately to print 500,000 envelopes |
and 100,000 folders. The idea of a map j
showing the route from San Francisco to |
the Klondike was acceptable for use on
the official envelope of the committee.
The sixteen-page folder will be an at
tractive advertisement. The title page
contains this reading; matter displayed:]
'Are you going to the Klondike or
AlasKan goldh'elds? San Francisco is the
best place to start from. For information
how to go, when to go, what to take,
where to get it, what it will cost, address \
Alaska trade committee, composed of rep- :
resentatives of the Merchants Associa
tion, Board of Trade, and Chamber of
Commerce of San Frapcisco." The folders
will be widely distr.b'jied in the Ea-t by
railroad companies JrienJly to San Fran
cisco.
The committee received many valuable
suggestions from Will am Bunker, alto
from the chairman, II 11. Sh rwood,
Hugh Craig, president of t c Chamber of
Commerce; H. Sherwood of the Sperry
Flour Company, M. Lipbman, George
Lie be s, Mr. Holland, Mr. En;:e]berg, Mr.
Buckley and others who were present.
.Members of the finance committee have
already secured a. handsome sum of money
Irom the merchants inseres ed in the
enterprise, and more cash will soon be
available. PPPJ
It was deckled at the session yesterday
that the committee would not lend official
indorsement 10 private advertisins
scheme- or publication". There was some
talk of engaging ex Governor Shnkely of
Alaska to deliver lee ures in the East. He
fis familiar with the YiiKon country, and
■i i-alsoa stanch advocate of San Fran
j cisco as an outlittms.' point.

Joe Kennedy, the pugilist who is
I matched to box Lansing ten rounds to- |
morrow evening, met with a stir;.
when he located at Mons. Terrier's train- j
ing quarters at Sausalito, where he in- i
tended to train for his contest.
Kennedy is very fastidious, and if there
is anything in the culinary art that tie is
madly fond of it is cranb rry pie. Per- j
rier, in relating his experience with Ken- i
nedy, stated that he found it utterly mi- j
posMDle for him to supply the pugilist
with a sufficient number of pies to ap- ]
pease bis appetite, and tha he was finally
compelled to ask Fighter Kennedy to look j
Ut) new training quarters.
"I uev r saw such a pie-eater in my
life.'' remarked the old wrestler Perrier, |
iis he ran his fingers through his hair i
■while his mind wandered bade to the days [

A big fleet of vessels baa been barbound
at various points along the coast for the !
Jast month or six weeks. In consequence ,
the supply of lumber has been limned and j
the arrivals of coasters few and far be- j
tween. Grays Harbor had up to yester- j
day a larpe gathering of barbound vessels
in its waters. A sodden break in the
weather came, however, and ten of them |
got oat and are now speeding toward San j
, Francisco. They are the schooners Twi- j

The Evidence Failed to Show That
George Riley Shot and Killed
William Hennessey.
George Riley. who was accused of having
shot and kil.ed William Hennessey in the
St. Davids Hou-e several months ago,
was acquitted yesterday by a jury in
Judge Wallace's court. The evidence
against Riley was purely circumstantial
and bec:ui-e of having the day before
quarreied with Hennessey he was accused
of having shot him when Hennessey was
found wounded nnd 'tying in the house in
wliich they both room I'd,
The theory of the defense was that Hen
nessey had shot him.-elf, but after hearing
ihe testimony for the prosecution Judge
Wallace instructed the jury to acquit, ns
there was no evidence to connect Riley
with the altered murder.
BLOOD DID IT FLOW.
Serious Trouble Averted on
the Yosemite Reser
vation.
James McOanley Held Glacier Point
for Days With a Loaded
Shotgun.
There has recently been a hot lime in
| the Yosemite Valley, but with the ap
proach of winter the temperature has
\ cooled down, and according to the latest
reports from the guardian, Miles Wallace,
! peace reigns over the grandest scenery of
California. The trouble was on account
(■ of the determination of James McCiUiey
to hold i oss sston of Glacier Point with
j a shotgun. McCauley is a Merced rancher
j and for thirty years he has held a sort of
I se.f-constituied right over the real estate
| in question.
In early days he located or took posses-
I sion of the point and built a trail up ironi
] the floor of the valley. Tourists going
I ever this trail were charged a fee or toll,
which netted the farmer a considerable
sum in the course of time. At last the
State of California asserted its right to
I the land and purchased the trail of Mc
: Cauley for the sum of $500, and he wes
given a lease of the property for ten years
jon condition that he would expend at
; least $3500 in improvements, a condition
| that It is f-aid he did not live up to. In
1883 tho lease expired, and from that time
on McCauley stayed there on a year-to
year proposition.
At one of the recent meetings of the
Yosemite Com mis ion the lease for the
Glacier Point privilege was let to
John If. Stevens of Fresno for four years,
and he was to enter into possession of the
' premises November ]. McCauley had no
idea of being shifted out so easily, and he
j went to town to get some food in order to
hold the fort during the winter. Guardian
Wallace put Stevens in possession of the
I property, and when McCtiu'ey returned
I he found there evidence of Stevens' pros
j ence, but the latter had gone out lor pro
visions.
Again the pioneer took the place, and
j when Stevens came back h'j found not
I only McCauley but the la tcr's fiinaiy and
j grown-up sons, who sided with their
I father tn his determination to hod tlie
fort. The old man had his trusty ihot
eun loadei and he threaten- d to spill
blood all over the lop of Glacier Point if
any attempt was maJe to oust him.
Guardian Wallace was not able to tell
' wlmt to do, so he tele^iaphcd to Secretary
]J. H. Shot-ban for instructions. The lat
ter wired back to take the place, even if it
was necessnry to s'orm the noini with a
| po^se of county oflicer.j. fciiill McC.iuley
lit-ld the fort aixl said that he would wipe
out the whole official corps of {lie county
I if necessary, but he wou d not budge.
Asain Guardian Wallace wired for in
structions and he was told to obey the
lorriier instructions, blood or no blood.
For days Secretary Sheehan has been
expecting to hear of a batt c on the point,
but yes'.erdav he received the fo! lon rig
message instead : "McCauiey out: Steven3

He Freely Expresses Him

Matters.

dered.
Declares That at Times He Feels Very
Mnch Like Resigning From
the Bench.
Judge Coffey is growing weary of the
I duties imposed on him in ttie trial of pro
bate matters. He so expressed himself
yesterday afternoon, to the great surprise
of the spectators, who were in the court
room when he gave vent to his pent-up
feelings.
The occasion of the outburst was the
<t>resenta;ion of an order by an attorney,
asking to be allowpd a fee entirely too
large, considering the value of the estate
and his services.
"I am sic* and tired of thii place,"
said the Judge, rather heatedly, "and
if I had $2 50 above my just
debts and liabilities I would not hesi
tate a momoDt before resigning. I have
mo peace. lam compelled to continually
I lay detective and watch out for the inter
ests of people who have cases before me.
I I cannot eat my meals in peace. lam
I stopped in tv» corridors of the hall while
on my way to the court and importuned
oy men who want me to appoint them ap
praisers on estate-.
"In many cases the application is made j
before the body of the dpcedent is cold. It '
has gone so far that I can't take a bath
without being disturbed. No matter i
where I go or what I attempt to do, there
is always some one after me, plea ling to
be appointed uppraiser or attorney in
seme estate. Ii has grown so tiresome
ihai lam weary of the wliole matter. It I
is not more than ten days ago that I was
called a liar, and, in fact, a worse name
than that, because 1 would not accede to
the wishes of one who importuned me to
be given tin appraisement.
"The conduct ol many who call on me
is positively indecent. A few days ago

Judge Coffey did not wait to conclude
his remarks. An attorney armed with an
order asking to be a/1 .wed to look after
the absent heirs in an estate stepped into
t h<» courtroom at that paint and the Judge
fled to his chambers.

TO HAVE A NEW FRONT.
One or the Old-Time HlHtorJc Build
ings of This City Is Undergoing
Alterations.
Yesterday morning a force of men com
menced work on the front of the old
gi anile and brick building, 2LI and 213
Sacramento street, which is on the soutn
side between Davis and Drumm. The
front is to be removed, a new one put in,
and the interior la to be remodeled to
bring it with the line of modern accom
modations
This building is th« eastern third of the
structure which has become historic by
reason that it was in the days of '50 ttie
headquarters of the Vigilance Committee,
and was known in tho time that the citi
zens rose in their might to purge the city
of the lawless element that for some time
prior to the organization of the committee
was in power as "Fort Gunny bigs.' 1 It
received that name from the Jact that in
front of the building to a height of about
ten feet there had been erected on the
line of the center of Sacramento street
and at eecn end from that line to the
building a rampart of grain sacks filled
with, sand with portholes through each of
which peeped a 6- pounder. On the roof
there were a pair of such guns and the
great L>e>l that summoned the members
in case of need.
It was from this building that James P.
Casey, the slayer of James Kins of Wil
liam, editor of the Bulletin, and Charles
Cora, the slayer of United States Marshal
Richardson, were hanged In tne month of
May. The portion that i-i being re
modeled was in the days of terror set
apart for the detention of those suspects
who were under investigation and were
afterward notiiied to leave the city for the
city's good.
HIS LICENSE SUSPENDED.
Captain Aiifladonn Blamed for the Lost
of the Steamer Caspar.
The United States Inspectors of Steam
Vessels gave a decision yesterday in the
matter of the 10-<s of tiie steamer Caspar.
Tne inspectors, after reviewing the wreck
of the vessel and the loss of thirteen of
ber crew on Saunders reef, off the Mendo
cino coast, said :
After careful consideration of the testimony,
w>' are of the opinion (hat had Captain An
findsen steered the mngnetic course he s«ys
he did the Caspar Wuul'l have Cleared the reef
Bix miles. It does not stem to us possible
that the vessel could have been 'set inshore
by the sea. It is a.60 uur opinion that had
CaDtaiu Aniitidsen used the ship's lead he
would have known his s. earner was too close
to the land, and thereby have saved her and
the lives of all on board.
Therefore, for reasous of such negligence
and unskilifulness on ttie part ol Captain Oie
Anfiudseii we have this date, under (minority
ol Section 4450. United Maies Revised Stat
utes, suspended ins licence as master and pilot
of steam vessels for the period ot one year.
The Caspar was valued at $30,000.

MAY CLOSE TWO
HOSPITAL WARDS
The Step to Reduce Ex-j
penses at the City
and County.
Board of Health Considering; j
the Closing of Import
ant Departments.
Internes Object, and It Is Rumored
That Many of Them Will
Kesign.
The Board of Health is considering the
advisability of making sweeping changes
at the City and County Hospital to cut
down exjiensei, aii'i the probabilities are
that within a few weeks wards O (poly
clinic) and E (maternity) will be closed
and tiie needy patients wiio apply for ad
mittance to these wards will Lave to be
turned away.
The ordor for the closing of the hospital
will be made by sending instructions to the
hospital to refuse admittance to people
wno would have to be treated in them.
The internes at the hospital are becom
ing disgusted, and it is rumored that
within a few days many of them will re-
siun.
This is not their only grievance, but they
are now obiieed to sleep two and three in
one small room. Dr. Sas3dorf, beine the
chief executive, has the ri^ht to take all
ihe rooms if he wishes, but it is a little bit
hard on the internes. They are also com
plaining about the milk given the patients,
and one if the resident physicians sug
gested thai Dockery might visit the hos
pital and use his little lactometer.
One of the doctors, speaking about the
condition of the hospital, said :
"If they discharged some of these 'hobos'
working around here it would be better
for the hospital. There are about fifty of
them work .ng here for $5 a month. They
are continual y stealing from the hospital
ami bringing in liquor and selling it to
the patients.
"The hospital should be looked after
and improvement aimed nt, rattier than
that the expenses shouul be cut down
continually."
An Old Petty Thief.
Augustus Orr, an old man and confirmed
petty larceny thief, whs arrested rnrly yester
day morning by Policeman McXamara for
burelary. He broki a window in a >hoestore
at 1302'Markei street and stole three pairs ot
shoes. On October 5 he broke a window In
the same store and sio;e a pair of shoes. He
got out of the County Jatl last Saturday as
J age Dunne dismissed the case, saying Orr
was ocly lit for the Almshmise.
Verdict for the Defendant.
The jury in the suit oi Mrs. Emilie Ullman,
who soueht to secure $20,000 damages from
Mary A. Mugge, because of alleged malicious
prosecution, returned to court last evening
with a verdict in fnvor of the (iefe"dan •■.
raw to-day:
catMStsestomace
A Pleasant, Simple, but Safe and Ef-
fectual Cure for It.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to incurable.
The usual symptoms are a full or bloating
sensation after eating, accompanied some-
times with sour or watery risings, a forma-
tion of gases, causing pressure on the
heart and lungs and difficult breathing,
headaches, fickle appetite, nervousness
and a general played out, languid feeling.
There is clten a foul taste in the mouth,
coated tongue, and if the interior of the
stomach could be seen it would show a
slimy, inflamed condition.
The cure for this common and obstinate
trouble is found in a treatment which
couses the fc.od to be readily thoroughly
digested before it has time to ferment and
irritate the delicate mucous surfaces of
the stomach. To secure a prompt and
healthy digestion is the one necessary
thing to do, and when normal digestion is
secured the catarrhal condition wiil have
disappeared.
According to Dr. Harlanson the safest
and best treatment is to use after each

Mr. N. J. Booherof 2710 Dearborn street,
Chicago, 111., writes: "Catarrh is a local
condition resulting from a neglected cold
in the head, whoreby the lining membrane
of the nose becomes inflamed ana the poi-
-Bonousdisct>arge therefrom passing back-
ward into the throat reaches trie stomach,
thus producing catarrh of the stomach.
Medical authorities prescribed for me for
three years forcatarrh of stomach without
cure, hut to-day I am the happiest of men
after using only one box of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets. I cannot find appropriate
words to express my good leeling. I have
found flesh, appetite and sound rest from
their use"
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the safest
preparation as well as the simplest and
most convenient remedy for any form of
indigestion, catarrh of stomach, bilious-
ness, sour stomach, heartburn and bloat-
ing after meals.
Send for little book, mailed free, on
stomach troubles, by addressing Stuart
Co., Marshall, M:cb. The tablets can be
found at all drugstores.
