of the democratic national commltoo ; Gov

Major Carter II. Harrison of Chicago. The
purpono of thl * conference was to consider
the brsl method ! ot managing the local
campaigns till * jcar , for tlio Interests ot
the democratic party n B whole. The re-
putctl result of the conference Is that Wil

turned down lth his free silver theories ,
and that unit-monopoly Is to be tliu watch
word of HIP democrats till something bettor
nnd more certain to unlto the party puts In

It has been Riven nut that the assembling
of tlicuo democratic leaders In this city atone
ono ami the same tlmo was puii'ly nn acci
dent , but that they did tnlto advantage of
the presence of all at the sumo time to
confrr Is not denied. That the position of

committi < . nnd Governor Stone and Gov-

Tlio result Is , In a few words , that Mr.

Mr liruin is tit present In Iowa teaching
his ppitihar doL'trlnrs , nnd nn cfToit will be
made tn take him out of that state , but with
what re-nit Is not now known. The feeling

would stand a better chance for winning In
the HawKiyo st lie If the ex-democratic candi
date WPIC prevented fiom stirring up feel
ing among the members of the democratic
party thrrn.
The ultimate rcwilt of this Irnpr 'mptu con-
fuicure In this elty will be to eventually take
the nIKer question out of the politics of
tbo diMWirifltlc party. The leaders of the
partv. who HIT not so much wrapped up in
the rjiiPBtion as their late presidential cnn-
dldate see that sliver Is a dead Issue , and
want to g. " rid of It In the moat graceful
manner pns Iblc ,
The vis .lug democrats left town last even

scene of Monday night's triple tragedy , report -
port ft very grave state of affair * . It is
fearrd that further trouble will result on
account of the bad feeling cngendrcd among
the different fartlons. The sheriffs from
Flint and Going Stake districts and several
United States marshals are on the ground
endeavoring to make nrrosts mid If possible
prevent further bloodshed. There Is a bitter
enmity of long standing between the while
adopted citizens and the full blood Indians
and extra precautions have been taken to
guard against an open rupture and loss ot
life on both sides. Some of the white
citizens who have been notified to leava
have done so. but most of them , men of
nerve , say they will remain and fight
It out If necessary to protect their Jives nnd
those of their families.
A largo amount of ammunition has been
sold hero to full bloods , who went In the
direction of Ssllno court house. They rnado
no threats , however , and nobody knows
heir Intentions. They were closely followed
jy United States marshals armed with rifles
and six shooters.
A report has just reached here ot another

VICTORIA , n. C. , Sept. 25. The steamer
City of Seattle arrived from Skigtvay at noon
bringing the following special to the Asso
ciated press :
KINNIQAN'S TOINT. on Chllkoot Trail ,
Sept. 2. Sheep Camp , nlno miles above
here , was nearly wiped off the face of the
earth yesterday morning by a section of a
Inclar breaking loose from the main body ,
which came crashing down the canyon for
two and a half miles , carrying death and
destruction In Its wake. The first report
wrought down last night by men who had
Jruvcd perils of flood and precipice to get out
was that not lees than seven men had been
dlled and dozens maimed and hurt. Liter
eports , confirmed by a hundred witnesses ,
brought the certain death loss down to
one , a man named Choynskl of San Fran
cisco , said to bo a cousin of the pugilist of
the same name. Several were hurt some
what , but none fatally. There may bo other
Icaths , hut so far no other bodies can bo
found. The loss of supplies will reach $25-
)00. ) Many have lost all their supplies , after
.oiling many days to get them that far on
ho way , und many professional pickers that
lad been working for months ns men never
worked before lost tholr earnings In the
twinkling of an eye.
The glacier from which the slide started
Is just u little above nnd west of the "stone
: iouao , " two and one-half miles above Sheep
amp. The warm weather and heavy rains
formed a lake on the glacier and the wind
liad been blowing for twenty-four hours from
the north and had finally broken off a sec
tion a half aero In oxtcnt. which , with the
water behind It , started on Us fatal Journey.
The persons who wore cnnped at "stone
tiouso" say It looked like a volcano turned
loose over 100 feet In height nnd twenty-live
In width. When It started It raado a nolsa
as of a thousand cannon and the startled In
mates ot the tents sprang to their feet In
all stages of undress ( It wns raining a tor
rent at the time , and for that reason many
were yet In bed ) and rushed outside to see
what was the matter. Ono glance up the
canyon was enough ; some rushed Into their
tents to got thu most valuable things they
could lay hinds on , while others took to the
foothills without anything , over boulders and
largo rocks that nt any other tlmo they
could not have got over at all.
CHOYNSKI'S FATE.
Choynskl was camped with some compan
ions at this place and did not get out of his
tent until the flood of water had struck It.
Ho grabbed n tent rope and was carried by
the flood to the length of his reps and the
water threshed him up and down until flnilly
he was torn Icose and dashed along by the
raging torrent and beaten against rocks and
boulders until life was almost extinct. Some
one finally caught his body and brought It
to shore. Rough but tender bands held him
until life was extinct , tie was only able
to mumble his name before he died.
From "stono house" to Sheep Camp , about
two miles , former slides have left channels
which have piled rocks Indiscriminately on
all sides , hence the name. But the general
course Is quite different to Sheep Camp , where
the most of those w.ho are packing make one
stage of tbolr Journey and there are at all
times from 500 to 1,000 people camped there.
There were fully 1,000 there yesterday. The
first person there to see the avalanche was
about to overwhelm them was Captain F. F.
C. Haatz , a saloon , keeper , who had a saloon
and gambling house In a largo tent diicctly
In the course of the torrent. Ho had Just
got up , and , hearing a nolso like thunder ,
looked up the canyon and taking In the sit
uation at a glance , he rushed Into the aaloon ,
grabbed up alt his money and told a dozen
or more men who were sleeping under the
gambling tables. Ho yelled to them that an
avalanche was on them and started on a
run down the trail , yelling at the top of his
volco for all to got up. lAs It was they
escaped with tholr lives. Few made any
effort to save any of their effects.
George C. Marks of San Franrisco , who
came to Sheep Camp a few days ago to buy !
outfits of those who were dlscouiaged or
broken , bad $4,000 in a. belt under bis bed
and at the first alarm ran out with nothing
but his underclothes on to sco what the mat
ter was and then tried to get his money ,
but the water was on him and he could not
get It. He had hold of a rope and was
thrashed around by the angry waters until
his hold was broken , when ho was carried
Into an eddy and rescued by those on the
bank. He came down today with the crowd
and does not show any signs of the struggle
for life ho has gone through.
PROPERTY LOSSES.
Tents , goods aud provisions of all kinds
are burled In an Indescribable manner for
nearly a mlle from the head of Sheep Camp
down the canyon. Forty tents , occupied by
probably over 100 persons are burled In thu
ruins. All Is confusion. Many discouraged ,
disheartened pilgrims have come down tou.ij
Intending to take the first steamer for
home. So mo of them have not a dollar to
their names , still the most of them saved
their money. One man lost $400 , which was
found by digging whcro his tent had gone
down. Four saloons out of six were wiped
out of existence , but the log houses which
had been built higher up the slope ucro left
standing. The toll brldgo was washed out ,
as well as several feet along the trail , but
Healy and Wilson have et a force of men
-t work repairing the bridge and trail so that
It will bo passable for horses again In a few
days , Men hive felled trees across several
places and It Is again poeslble to get along
on foot. Tnero are hundreds or ulscouragcu
men tonight at Sheep Camp. They know not
what to do. Professional packers who have
been at work for some time are sick from
exposure and overwork. The course of the
avalanche was not over 200 feet In any place
snd only those who had not selected ordinary
precautions for camping wore Injured , but
many who were camping only temporarily
loU their all. At Flnnegan'a Point the river
rose nearly a foot In two hours , but has gone
down again to almost Its former love ! and
these camped here are beginning to inovo
their stuff ahead again.
