The Hteamer City ot Topeka arrived here last night from Jim Can , AlaskM. Among ltd passengers was J. V.Maloncr of Jtineati , who caino out from DawRon City with the Galvln party. In an Interview with the corespondent ot the Associated Press Mr. Matoucy says : "Hunker creek and Gold Bottom creek , It 's ' conceded will equal , It not rival the now famous Bonanza and Eldorado creeks. More especially Is this true of Hunker creek. Lo cation No. 33 on that creek Is among thu richest In the Klondike district. Many ol the claims on this creek will run $2,000 to the Ii3x. On No. 30 , In Eldorado , Alexander McDonald's claim , one' man In a Hhltt und a half ( which Is about twelve IIOUIK ) , shoveled In $220,000. On Skoekum Kiilch , which Centers Bonanza No. 2 above Discovery , on "two locations I saw $30.000 weighed out of two box lengths.

No , 31 , Bonanza , owned by Oscar Ashley and Hilly Lcake , will produce $1,000- 000. Three days after the boat left for down the rlvsr taking the gold , the North American Trading and Transportation com pany had a quiitcr of a million In Us safe at Dawsun. Mr. Maloncy says over $2,000- 000 'will come out ibis fall. "There aie stacks und stacks of gold , " he nald. "Alexander McDonald will produce the largest amount. I hesitate , to give fig ures , but the simple trutn Is that his va rious Interests will yield him from $2,000,000 to $1,000,000 this winter. " TJie statement Is made that Henry Bratno- ble , agent for the Rothschilds , who has been several weeks at the diggings , offered over $1,000.000 for ten claims adjoining on thu .Eldorado , but the oiler was declined. Maloncy offered $80,000 for a one-half In terest In claims number 35 and 3fi on the . Eldorado , which offer waa declined likewise. OlirHca Anderson panned out $700 In three I'ours.

Henry Brat- noble , the mining expert , who Is known throughout thu United States from his con nection with the Exploration Company of London , ! ian returned from the Klondike. His Hussion was to ascertain if an oppor tunity presented Itself for Investment. He ffiys. " 1 found some very good placer mines , but nqt as sensational In their richness us has been reported. lui many cases the claims are comparatively poor , although al most any of them will pay wages. Because" Ono claim Is very rich Is no reason w.hy an ' adjoining one should be equally good. On. the contrary , the near neighbor of a rich claim Is generally poor. There are few summer diggings In the Klon dike , that Is , those which can be worked by the ordinary sluicing process. Most of the b'c'dro'ck Is eighteen or twenty feet below the surface and the ground Is frozen solid , e"vcSp " * that eighteen Inches or two feet thawc.IP . the summer. On the whole the Klondike may be classed us very good dig ging , and I should say there Is a good chance for other discoveries this fall. "As to quartz mining , I consider It Im possible at the prefient tlmo owing to the ( Ufilc'ultles to bo overcome. I do not think < hro ) Is much danger of starvation at Daw- son. " C. W. Matthews , cx-shorlft of Ashland , WIs. , has returned from a trip to the Klon dike , made for the purpose of ascertaining whether sheep and cattle could bo shipped to' the mining districts of Alaska and the northwest territory at a profit , and he is now on his way east to perfect arrangements for sending a flock of 2,000 sheep to Dawson In the early wring. Matthews Is associated In the undertaking with John Roa , ot the firm of Rea Brothers of Chlcaco , extensive shippers ot stock. , Thet Jesuit fathers are preparing to bulk a now ship for the Yukon river to replace the one they formerly had , but which at tin time of the rush a few months ago was gur- chased by miners as a last means of reachIng - Ing thct .gold. , fields.

If nil the whisky distillers who have been asked join it they will represent more than ? 50,000,000 capital. Among those who arc tald to be behind the deal are S.

Meyer & Co. . both of Philadelphia , have also been Instrumental In trying to bring about an ag cement which will make the combination complete.

IJtMlrli-tN of the South. The Omaha health authorities have been laboring under the menace of a case of yel low fever for the lest forty-eight hours. The matter has been kept closely 'under cover for fear of Inciting unnecessary xilarm , and the facts have only been mad public since the ease has developed into an unmistakable at tack of typhoid fever , and the fear of the more dreaded disease has' ' been dispelled. The patient Is one of the traveling men em ployed by the Cudahy Pa'fclflng company. He returned a few days ago -fr'pra a trip through the south , during which lie' was compelled to visit a number of the fover'Strlcken polntts. Ho took all possible precautions to guard against contagion , but his confidence In these went to low water marR 'Immediately ' after his arrival In Omaha \yhen he was taken sick with symptoms that closely resembled those of yellow fever. The disease had fur- nlshetl the principal topicof conversation in Mobile and the other cities he-had just visited and he was quick to recognize the similarity of the symptoms. The municipal health department was no tified of the case Saturday night and Dr. Spaldlng Immediately made an Investigation. For the first twenty-four hours It was diffi cult to diagnose the exaH brand of .fever that the patient had acquired and In view of thn fact that ho had just come from the south , the physicians were not a llttlo alarmed. But now the disease has so _ far developed that It Is announced that there is no possibility that it will tuna out to be anything else than typhoid and their anxiety has been allayed. CITY COUXCIL IS CHITISEI ) . Iloily KallH to IJeitlRiinte Ilulimliirii-N of Kleetloii DlNtrlutH. The failure of the city council to pass the resolution Instructing the city clerk to pub lish the notice of the boundaries of the voting ing precincts of the city and of the location of the booths Is being criticised to some ex tent by those who are Interested In the re sult of the election. The' members of the counc-11 who voted against the resolution ex plained their action by saying that the city had no Interest In the election and that the county should bo compelled to pay the bills. They were assured by City Atto.ney Connell that while this might be true as a matter ot equity the law was unquqstlunably opposed to such a proposition. Nevertheless the reso lution < fallcd to pass. This particular .feature of the election law hss always been a source of contention , In asmuch as it does not specify by whom the notice shall bo issued. It has usually been customary for the mayor to Issue the notice , but at the last election the council decided that the city clerk -was trie propel- official to Uorfo'm the task anil so Instructed him. Opinions differ as to whether a failure to publish the notice would lead to any dispute in regard to the validity of the election , but It Is conceded that the safest plan would be to carry out the provision as required by the statutes.

NEW YORK , Oct. 12. E. Ellcry Andcr- aon of the Unl5n Pacific receivers made , the following statement today : "The Oregon Short Line people have wired us that the agreement relating to the Inter change ot traffic between the two companies , as submitted by the Union Pacific receivers to the Oregon Short Line olficlals , has been accepted , signed and- mailed to us. As far as that agreement goes the differences be tween the two companies have been ad- Justed. "Tho resumption of through passenger trains from Chicago to Portland will require the co-operation ot the Oregon Hallway and Navigation company , and we have every rea son to believe that this will be glvon'at an early date. " The statement given out by Mr , Anderson was received with considerable rejoicing nt Union Pacific headquarters In this ilty , and a telegram corroborating the dispatch was later received by General Manager Dickin son. son.The announcement created no surprise , as I * , had' been foreshadowed by a statement given out by President Carr of the Oregon Short Line and Gcnctal Manager Dickinson of the Union Pacific. If the co-operation of the Oregon Hallway and Navigation company can be secured through cars will again be run from here to Portland via the former branch Hues of the Union Pacific. The effect of the settlement with the Oregon Short Line restores the traffic situation as itas pre vious to October 1 , when all through tariffs were pulled out. Mil. CAHH GAVE HOPE. The announcement by President Carr of the Oregon Short Line that the amendments suggested by the Union Pacific management In the agreement under conetderatlon be tween the officials of the two belligerent railroads would probably be accepted , gave a ray ot hope to those who have been wait ing patiently for the end of demoralization in western rates. The passenger situation , at least , mow gives promise of being speedily cleared up , but so much can not bo said of the freight situation. During the last three months western , pas senger rates have been In the most unsettled condition they have been for several years. There have been several causes for the de moralization. The two most prominent fac tors contributing toward the general demor alization have been the opening of "the Midland " the announcement land Route" and consequent ment of large commissions paid for travel via that line , and the break between the Union Pacific and the Oregon Short Line , with the result that the former road diverted Its business to Portland via Sacramento. HERE IS AN INSTANCE. An instance of the demoralization caused by the Union Pacific's emphasizing "the Shasta route" to Northern Pacific points occurred Monday , and for awhile greatly disturbed local passenger circles. One of ithe operators In the employ of the Local Passenger association purchased a ticket from here to Portland , via Sacramento over the counter of the city ticket office of the Union Pacific for $3G , whereas ? 40 Is the published tariff rate. The operator made an affidavit that he purchased this ticket from City Passenger Agent Abbott for $4 loss than regular rates , but the ticket seller denies that there Is any truth In the affidavit. At any rate , the ticket was redeemed at full price at the headquarters of the road later that day. The matter was considered at Monday's meeting of the Local Passenger association , but nothing further than forc ing the redemption of the ticket could be accomplished , as the Union Pacific holds Itself aloof from the Weste'n Passenger association and Its local branch. ONLY ONE OF MANY. The Incident that happened Monday Is eald by local railroaders to be one o the many that has occurred during the last few months to help along the general demoraliza tion In rates between the Missouri river aud the Pacific coast. With one route offering $5 commission and the other quoting rates $1 below 'tariff there does not appear a very general desire to maintain rates , the solemn pledges recently 'ven ' at the Chicago meetIng - Ing of general passenger agents to the con trary notwithstanding. It Is little wonder , therufnre , that the announcement the Union Pacific end the Oregon Short Line would come together again and that the Union Pacific will again have the advantage of the shortest route between here and Port land Is received with great relish by the railroad men who would prefer to see tariff rates maintained ana by the travelers who are net able to get in on the surreptitiously cheapened rates. WiMle all the Indications are favorable for an abatement of the causes leading up to demoralization In western patsenger rates , the prospect Is not so bright for a cessation of the hostilities between the freight traffic departments of the Union Pacific and the Oregon Short Line. The former Is still send ing all Its traffic to Portland and ether northern Pacific coast points via Sacramento. The express freight trains are making the run from Council Bluffs to Ogdcn on re markably fist time , from th'lrty-thrce ' to thirty-six ! hours , but It is said that even the large amount of business being handled enthuse thuso express freight trains does not begin to pay for the Increased cost of running such fast 'trains over the longer route.

Seott'H Court IK I'lihelil. A fine of $200 and costs for which he waste to stand committed until paid wns the prize that Police Commissioner Hcrdman drew In Judge Scott's court room yesterday after noon for contempt of court in refusing to vote for the rcaoltit'lon rescinding the action by whl&h Detective Cox > was discharged. As a partial mitigation of the sentcnse its exe cution was suspended until December 1. The arguments In the case occupied the cntlro afternoon. They were substantially a repetition of the points raised during the hearing last week , and the presentation of authorities by the attorneys for Mr. Herd- man , most of which the court declined to hca , ' , as he stated that he- was already fully Informed. The only new feature was a declaration made by Judge Scott during the COUIEU ot the argument , which , If It stands , means that the Board of Fire- and Police Commissioners will not be allowed to dis charge a nmn from the force , no matter whether there Is any money In the fund with which to pay him or not. It came up when Mr. llerdman's attorney was making n reference to the charter provision which provides that no department of the city can Incur obligations or make expenditures in ex cess of the funds provided for by the council. Judge Scott declared that -this - referred only to the appointment of additional officers , and that It was not a violation ot the provision to keep all the men who had been previously appointed. Judge Scott occupied nearly an hour In his finding and In this time he reviewed the entire history of the case. He emphasized the statement that the attitude of Commis sioner Herdman throughout the proceedings had been one of open defiance * to the court , and referred to a statement In a Lincoln newspaper that Herdman had made an ar rangement with Judge Norval of the supreme court by which Judge Norval was to remain at the other end of a telephone in order to prevent Herdman from going to Jail. He -theu-fctaUd-Uiat be proposed to show that he was perfectly fair , and therefore would Im pose the1 same sentence which ho had made in the case of garbagemastcr In a sim ilar proceeding , which was that stated above.

At yesterday's meeting of the Omaha Commercial club's executive committee , the matter of providing adequate hotel facilities for 1898'was again under consideration. . The preliminary report of the committee showed that the present facilities wcro not nearly sufficient to care for the crowds that are anticipated. It was said that the number of drumn'crs that wnuld tc sent hero by out side business houses would be sufficient to take up all the spare room in the present hotels. The committee was continued with Instructions to present a flr.al report , with a definite estimate at the meeting next week of how many people could be accommodated In the hotels here. Homer Moore waa present and explained his scheme for handling the music of the exposition. The committee passed a resolu tion requesting the exposition management to secure a musician of national reputation as musical director of the exposition and ex pressed a desire that an Omahan should bo BolccteU. Commissioner Utt reported that the club would soon send out a card showing the com mercial advantages of Omaha. A communica tion from Dudley Smith , recommended th.it the club assist Colonel C. J.

His honor's teeth chattered as lui Issued thu order. So did those of Officer Boyle as ho went below utter his men. The Kephyro foretelling Iho coming of winter blew through the doors and winnows of the bleak court room ami the few spectators who huddled on the benches outride the railing , bunched them selves In order to keep warm. This condition of affairs was duo to the fact that no steam had been turned on , and unless the fight bclwccn the owners , of the liulldlng whcrelii Is located the police head quarters and the city council Is se-tllcd , matters are likely to g'ow worse. When Captain Mostyn requested Landlord Izard to turn on the steam yesterday , lib was Informed that Izird was under no obl'ga. tlon to the city to furnish Btoami also that If the city wanted heat to keep Its officers from freezing It had better pay for It. The cm ) ot the argument was that the tempera ture of the underground portions ot the Jail and the court room continued at a low point nil day. while the prisoners and officers took exercise In order to keep winn. Landlord Izard slated that ho was under orders from tha local agents ot the Philadel phia Mortgage and Trust company , Brennan , Love & Co. , to retime to furnish steam unlit the city had entered Into a now lease with them. Ho stated , moreover , that the bolters were out of repair and that they had not be-cn submitted for Inspection yet. Ho thought the prospects for the frequenters ot the police court this winter were about even for freezing or being blown up. Mr. Hrennan stated yesterday that the city was at present paying but J200 per month for Its police headquarters. This amount the eastern company thought much teD small , and ho had been directed by them upon several occasions to raise the rent to $300 , or start suit of ejectment against the city. This , however , has not been done. Mr. Brennan also stated that under the old five-year lease which was made with Peter Gooa , the original owner of the property , not only steam was to bo furnished , but also the power for operating a fan for venti lating the Jail portion ot the building. The rent paid was ? 300 per month. This agree ment wns carried out during the life ot this lease and also during the year when the prop erty was In the possession of J. E. Izard. The property then went into a receiver's hands and last summer the rent was re duced to $200. The eastern company took pcsscfislon by foreclosure In May last. The company now figures that It Is not receiving the proper amount of rent from the premises and unless the city will agree to pay the old amount the company will refuse to furnish heat and will also start suit In ejectment.
