DISASTKIl AT LiAKU MANAWA. _ _
The Steamer Manawa Sluka Intotha
Lake.
During the storm last nlpht Lake Man-
nwa was the scene of a steamboat dis
aster. During the evening the shores of
the laku wore lined with excursionists ,
but a storm muldcnly ' arising nbout
half past eight , the crowds rushed
panic-stricken on board the steamboats.
Ilio scene was indeed one to strike terror
to the hearts of the timid. The docp
darkness of the nlcht was lit by the occa
sional lightning Hush only to blio\v the
usually placid lake lashed Into a foaming
fury , Meanwhile the rain poured in tor
rents. All the excursionists jrot safely
ou board thu steamboats , and tbo
boats started to cross the lake
to the north slilo where tlio hotel Is situ-
ntiid. All the boats crossed safely except
the steamer "Maimwa. " While thn pas
sengers wore gcttinc on board this bout
on the south side of the lake , it
wns dashed against the landing and a
hole was crushed in her sldo into which
the water rushuil. The effect of the acci-
dnnt was not noticed until the boat was
about tbo miildlo of the lake when
it was suddenly discovered sho.
was sinking I Taldng Into consider
ation the rough condition of the lake and
tbo peril of these on board , there was
naturally niuclv confusion. The scene is
easier Imagined than described. The
cries of distress from the wrecked boat
were heard by the people on shore , who
lent a ready help , and all but four were
resound from the wreck. These 4four ,
dcspitu all ullbrls to save them , sank to
thd bottom of the lake. At least it was so
reported at 1 o'clock this morning. Ono
ol the persons reported lost is Isaac Newman -
man ot this city. No blame was attached
lo anyone for the terrible accident. The
sudden storm , the darkness of night , and
the hurry to cross the lake , are the trio of
circumstances that favored the disaster.
Later Reports from Matiawa at 3
o'clock mdicato there were neither
of the four persons drowned who were on
the Hlfatod steamer , but nil saved.
IT I'OUUED.
Ln-U NIcht'H Itefrcshlnir fall of Rnln.
Yesterday was only a decree less in
heat than was the previous day. Every
body pulled , perspired and growled to
hi.s neighbor about the hunt , mopped the
perspiration from his faeo und prayed for
a zephyr from the north polo. It came
leastwise if it wasn't a zephyr from the
north polo it was the equivalent thereof.
1'eoplo didn't stop long to enquire whore
it came from. It was too welcome to
question , and it was drank down in dnep
draughts as a nectar from the gods. Dark
clouds began to moye toward the city
from the wcstwrrd in thu early evening.
Shortly after 8 o'clock the clouds spread
out o'er the city and wore soon followed
by a heavy fall of rain. It rained with a
vengeance and as if it meant to wet
things. It did. It wasn't long until the
gutters were miniature rivers and over
flowing the street crossings. Pedestrians
sought shelter in doorways , and the street
cars were crowded with wayfarers anx
ious to tret in doors. At 10 o'clock it wits
stilj raining , and there was a cool and
delightful breeze which refreshed parched
humanity and promised a pleasant night
for sleep.
Irish-American Club.
The Irish-American club is a now or
ganization in this city. Such clubs have
boon in existence in New York , Chicago
and other places for many years. The

csts of Irishmen and their friends gener
ally , but especially in the political Hold.
Tim Omaha club started out last night
with a membership of ninety-four , with
many applications for mombcfship not
disposed of. Every ward in ths city is
represented. The club will give a bail in
Exposition hall September 0 , which ,
being the first annual , promises to bo a
success. For the present the workings
of the club are secret , but Homo of the
best people in the city belong to it , and
many others are anxious to join.
U. P. Chanties.
There was some talk on the streets las
evening about the possible resignation of
several of the most prominent of the
Union Pacific oflicials , m the move of re
trouchruent now being made by Mr. Pot
tor. From the manner in which Mr. Pot
ter lias been decreasing his force lately
It is possible for almost any person to
prognosticate the most radical of dis
missals and still bo not far away from
what may later take place.
With respect to the sensational rumor ,
however , it may bo said that it was faked
upon an imaginative article which ap
pcarcd in the Chicago Times ol ycstor
day. Mr. Potter was out of town last
night , and his secretary know nothing
about the matter except such as ho had
learned from the Chicago paper in quej-
tion.

Annual Kzpositlon.
Robert W. Furnas , secretary of the
state board of agriculture , announces
that the twenty-first annual exposition
of lliu Nebraska board of agriculture
will bo hold at Lincoln on September Ute
to 1C inclusive. The previous expositions
warrant the assertion that the one this
year will be all that the character of the
management assures. When il Is under
stood that the state has so wonderfully
improved in the last year and that these
who have charge of the exposition are
fully up to the timn , it can bo safely said
that the twenty-first will uxcoll all other
expositions that have gone boforo.

A. Little Dill of 905,000,000 ,
Senator Stanford brings in n bill
against the government for $05,000,000 ,
which , bo declares to the Pacific com
mission , should bo applied to canceling
the debt of the Centra ! Pacific road to the
pcoplo. IIo makes $20,000,000 of this out
by charging the government with the
discount at which the bonds were placed
owing to the gold premium , with the In
terest on this discount added. Much of
the rest is composed of allowances for
transportation which Iho govorrimcnt
nollher contracted for nor gotbut , which
Mr. Slandfont claims it ought lo pay for
because the company had counted on ll.
Ho wauls dumngo for Iho sinking fund
law also ,
Mr. Stanford assorts that in aiding in
the construction of thu Northern Pacific
and certain other roads the government
wronged the Central Pacific by diverting
traffic from it. Tins Is a curious pica to
juil in by ono of the builders of Ilio
Soiilhuru Pacific , which injures Ilio Cen
tral Pacific more than any other road.
Just why Iho governmoiil should bo
made responsible lo Iho company lor Iho
premium on uold and for chanties in Ihu
rale of mlurest when il is simply a guar
antor for the bond , does not ar-pcur.
But waiving Ilio ridiculous character of
Senator Stanford's bill , how docs it dis
pose of Iho charges of corruplion ? And
if Hie properly has boon so perserulcd
by Iho government , where do StanfordX
Ihintlugton's and Crocker's hundreds of
millions come from ?

situation is Iho fact thai President Stan

THE FISHERIES OF ALASKA.
An Unlimited Supply of Kxccltcnt
Jiinonu ( Alitskn ) Free Press : The
waters ot Alnskn , both fresh nml suit ,
tnom with lish valuable as fooil , oil pro
ducers anil fertilizers. The fresh water
streams are , from Juno until September ,
crowded with salmon of excellent quality
and trout ; of thu former live , uiul of Iho
latter us iniuiy species , baltuon. too ,
throng the buys and inlets on uvury bank
in Buliring sea , tlio gulf ot Alaska , and
throughout the inland waters codfish or
halibut , according to the nature of the
bottom , are abundant , and in their
seasons immense schools of herring ,
smelt , capulin , lancetisli and dogfish Visit
the bays.
' 1 hero art ) now about twenty vessels
engaged in codlishing. The principal
fishing arounds uro oil' Fox and Shuina-
gin islands. In this vicinity there arc a
number of productive banks with water
varying in depth from thirty to sixty
fathoms. There is a bank in the eastern
part of Helmut : sea which has an area of
over 18,000 square miles , on which fifty
fathoms m the deepest water that has
beeo found , and eon every portion of
which codfish are abundant.
In 1879 thu schooner Alfred Adams
made three round trips from San Fran
cisco in forty-throo , forty-live and forty
days , bringinc on each occasion 50,000
pounds of lish. Bait is abundant and
easily obtainable near the Shtimagms.
The resources in salmon are inexhaust
ible. Every stream from the great
Yukon , emptying into the southern port
of Norton sound and navigable for 1,800
miles trom its mouth , to little brooks
flowing from melting glaciers and snow
banks is in its season crowded with
salmon ascending for purposes of repro
duction and during thcso seasons the
adjacent seas and bays arc alive with the
salmon.
The salmon of Alaska have not boon
scientifically classified , but there nro at
least live distinct varieties making their
appearance at different periods. Early
in June a very line salmon , the quinnat ,
called by the missian.-i chowchou , begins
to run , the kikoll' succeeds , and is fol
lowed in July by the crcssunti robia [ red-
lleshod ) , and in August thu garbosha
[ humpbacked ] , begins to run , and lasts
about live weeks , during which time the
kisclnitcli , or black-mouth have their
OHSOIl.
The salmon of Alaska caught in the
salt water of the ocean arc. superior to
these obtained at the fisheries on the
Columbia and other rlvors where they
are taken in brackish water.
But little endeavor to develop the ball-
but lisherics of Alaska has been made ,
but it is an established fact that thesu
lish are so very abundant and of .such an
excellent quality that in time they w'll
rate high among the resources of the
country. In this neighborhood they can
be caught in from live to twenty fathoms
of water , weighing from forty to
500 pounds , ami they form
an important portion of thu food of
the Indians , who dry and smoku thu
tlesh The Indians sell them to us at Iho
rate of about half a cnnl nor pound , and
the sailors find no difficulty in catching
largo numbers.
The halibut and cod fisheries of Alaska
aru much easier of access and more free
from those on thi eastern coast , and thu
labor and expense involved much loss
Fearly nil of the fUliing banks arc near
safe harbors , wheru the schooners can lie
ami send out the dories but a short dis-
tunoo on the grounds.
Alaska has indeed a great future in her
fisheries , and it is a wonder to us that
congress spends so much lime quibbling
with England over those on t lie oust when
she controls far superior ones on the
west.
