A general strike of the telegraphers on the lines of the Great Northern and Northern Pacific was ordered by Presi dent Perham of the Order of Railway Telegraphers. The telegraphers had been given the alternative of accept ing the wage schedule of the company or giving up their positions. Freight and passenger service on both lines have been greatly hampered, but an improvement Is noted from day to day. Copies of the Japanese blue book for 1905, prepared by the "department of finance, issued from the govern ment printing office at Tokio, have been received at Washington. The progressive enterprise of the Japanese is exhibited in this publication, which is printed in English. According to the blue book, the empire of Japan, comprising nearly 100 main and near ly 500 adjacent small islands, has about 18,000 miles of sea coast. It has an area of 161,148 square miles. The total population was a little over 33,000,000 in 1872, and has risen to 47,812,702, besides 3,059,235 for For most; ' these being the figures given at the close of the fiscal year 1905. Advices received in Seattle from Nome by the steamer Ohio state that the people of Nome are up in arms aginst the government officials - and their alleged actions in filing upon valuable mining claims. The Nome Nugget charges the officials with us ing illegal methods and taking ad vantage of their position to possess themselves of many valuable claims, which are obtainable by relocating. The Nugget prints comparative tables showing the number of claims held by the government officials and their relatives or assistants, and also the number held by the leading mining and business men of Nome and vicin ity. Officers of the Ohio report that the people are greatly exercised and are talking of taking drastic measures if the authorities at Washington do not investigate the matter.

Italian district into other districts of the city. Everywhere the quarantine is being rigidly enforced against the stricken city, and considerable trouble has arisen between the governors of Louisana and Mississippi as to the respective rights of each state with reference to quarantine enforcement. One launch manned by Mississip pians was seized by the naval militia of Louisana. The United States marine hospital launches were also threatened with seizure. Captain Ross has been ordered to proceed to New Orleans to take charge of the govern ment's health service, and the citi zens of New Orleans have guaranteed $250,000 to aid the government in its effort to stamp out the. dise ,;e and to properly enforce quarantine regulations. Charles F, Pfister, one of the wealthiest and most prominent citi zens of Milwaukee, and who was wide ly known as a politician, was indicted by the grand jury of Milwaukee county, charged with stealing $14,000 belonging to the Wisconsin Rendering company of this city. At the same time indictments were returned against four others, the charge of bribery being alleged in three of the indicements and one of perjury. The indictment of Pfister caused a pro found sensation. He is engaged in many of the biggest enterprises of Milwaukee. He is a director of one of the leading banks, owns a large in terest In a big tannery, is proprietor of a large hotel and owns one of the leading newspapers of the city. He has perhaps done as much or more than any other citizen of Milwaukee in building up the city. Pfister was the first one arrested, after which the others were served with papers. The list of persons for whom capiases were issued and the charges, Is as follows: Charles F. Pfister, capitalist, one In dictment, larceny. John F. Dittmars, ex-supervisor, one indictment, bribery.

District Attorney Jerome of New York received a number of letters from voters saying that they would be glad to sign a petition to nominate him for re-election as district attor ney. Others called on him, pledging their support. Mr. Jerome was pleased with the expressions of good will with which his announcement as an independent candidate was taken. He added to his formal declaration, made Monday, that it is against his prin ciples to accept a nomination from a political machine to which he would be subservient in the administration of his office or to the dictates of any political leader. Jerome took another whack- at the bosses of the political machines. On this point he said: "I myself am a small factor in the sit uation as compared to the principal issue involved. It is a big thing to break down the evil solidarity of the political machines and go over the heads of groups of men, who control these machines or the bosses, di rectly to the people. In my mind this is an appropriate time to make the test. In advocating this prin ciple I hope to create discussion all over the country, especially in local political affairs. What I want to bring out is whether the people are political ly free or subservient to a one man power. "- But whether I am; successful or not it will not shake my faith in the principal. ; However, I think this is an- opportune time, as there - is 1 a feeling- of. "unrest 1 throughout the country."
