A SOAROITY OF PROVISIONS. A Government Official Deprecates the Senseless Hurry to Alaska, Which, by the Way, He Declares, Con- ceals Quantities of Gold. Seattle, Wash, Sept. 24.——Burton F. Bennett, who was sent north by Presi— dent Cleveland to fill the office of Unit- ed States district attorney for Alaska, arrived from the north on the steamer Queen. “From what I can learn,’s’ he said, “there is not and will not be enough food at Dawson City this winter. With favorable weather the trading compa- nies may get- more up the river than was anticipated, but it is not likely. “It will be impossible, under the most favorable circumstances, to get suffi- cient in to supply all those who are there. I feel sure of that after careful inquiry and from letters I have re- ceived from Dawson City. “But, as I say, if Dawson City suffers, The world may not realize it, but there are men up north who are walking right into death. , “The snow is probably flying on White pass, and if not soon will be. Many but from what I can learn hundreds do not propose to stop there, nor will they re- turn to civilization. They have the gold fever as no other body of men ever had it. “Every time they hear of a strike in the Yukon country they get crazier than ever. They will not stop for snow. They will not stop for storms. They will keep pushing over White pass all winter. “I am satisfied that whilethe snow is coming down in all its fury on the pass and the wind is blowing awful gales this winter, you will see men on White pass. It is a frightful thing to think of, but it is true, and these men should be stopped. “I would not be surprised to learn of many deaths up there this winter. It is the most damnable rush I ever heard or read of. - “These men do not know anything about the horrors of White pass in the winter time, yet they keep on; and just about the time that winter is at its worst some of them will be caught on White pass. They will never escape. Safe at Skagguay. “I am satisfied that those. who remain at Skagguay this winter will be all right. Spring will soon be with them, and they can start for the north. “Once there, they will all come back rich if they are willing to stay and work for a few years. There is gold in every body of water, big or little, in our country. “Why, the people of the States, with all the newspaper talk, do not know what the rush will become in the com- ing spring. “From the received letters I have .‘from the States there will be 10,000 peo- ple in Alaska six weeks after the spring rush has commenced. “One thing is certain, and that is that the United States government will have to take steps at once to give Alaska new government. At present it is one judicial district. “I favor three, one for southeast Alaska, one for western Alaska and one for the Yukon. In that way the coun— try would be much better g verned. “If a murder is commi ted in the Yukon country in the winter time, the murderer could not be brought to the south coast until spring. I have given the matter serious consideration, and I think that there should be a commission appointed by our government to map out a code of laws for the country. , “At present we depend upon the 'Re- vised Statutes of the United States, and when we cannot find what we want in them we turn to the laws which gov- erned Oregon up to 1884. “The land laws should be extended. At present one cannot get title to land in Alaska. The point is very important in advancing the claim for new legis- lation for the country.” Connecticut's Expenses. New Haven, Sept. 24.—The committee appointed at the latest legislative ses- sion to inquire into the expenses of the state and ascertain whether the increase is necessary has issued a preliminary statement and made a. request for in- formation bearing on the subject. It is shown in the statement, comparing the four years ended in 1882 with the four ended in 1896, that the average annual expenses have increased nearly 60 per cent. ' Killed His Father-in-law.

She says: "I had kidney and urinary trouble for years. Severe headaches and scantiness of kidney se- cretions. I got a box of Dorn’s Kidney Pills at Glendening’s drug store.

A Claim Made That They Are Interfer- ing W'ith the Witnesses For the De- .fense—The Judge’s “’arning and the Squelching of Deneen. Chicago, Sept. 24.-—The Luetgert trial opened today with a sensational inti- mation by ex-Judge Vincent that the police were intimidating the witnesses ,for the defense. Ex—Judge Vincent, soon after court opened, asked that the jury be excluded while he made a state- ment to the court. After~the jury had retired ex-Judge Vincent, with indigna- tion in his tones and force in his decla- ration, said: “If the court please, there is strong reason to believe that the po- lice are interfering with witnesses for the defense and trying to intimidate them. I do not say absolutely that this is true, but the indications point almost directly to that conclusion. I desire an order of court prohibiting such action on the part of the police or the prosecu— tion.” “Why not make the injunction cover both sides ?” suggested State’s Attorney Deneen. - “The court does not require instruc- tions from any of the attorneys en- gaged,” sharply responded Judge Tut- llill. , Judge Tuthlli’s Menace. “I will make the charge that witness- cs'for the defense have been interfered with and harassed by the police,” said Attorney Phelen of the defense. “If that is true, there should be an in- both sides?" suggested State’s Attorney ney Deneen. “If any witness for the defense has. been intimidated,it has been done with—V out the knowledge of the state, and we do not approve of it.” “I will say now for the benefit of the police,” said Judge Tuthill, with sever- ity in his tones, “that if I hear of any interference with any of the witnesses on either side of the case I will deal with the offender, and my dealing will not be gentle. This defendant has rights here, and they will be protected.” “Why not order an queried State’s Attorney Deneen. “Mr. Deneen, this court will malar- the order it deems proper. That will do.” When the jury was recalled. Rosa Gleich was placed on the witness stand for cross examination. This witness was called yesterday to impeach the evidence of Emma Schimpke, given on the direct examina- tion, by the prosecution. She stated that she was with Emma Schimpke on the night of May 1 until 11 o’clock and remained with the Schimpke girl until the latter entered her home. She denied emphatically that either of them had seen Luetgert and his wife leave the latter's residence and go to the sausage factory as described. She denied also that Gottlieba Schimpke, who testified that she also saw Luetgert and his wife, was with Emma and herself that night. Furthe‘u more, the witness said that Emma Schimpke, since she had testified in the case, had admitted to the witness in the presence of others that she had lied. According to the witness, Emma Schimpke said she lied because Gott~ lieba. her weak minded sister, had got her into the Luetgert case, and she would not testify on Luetgert’s side. The witness also stated that Emma Schimpke tried to get her to tell the same story Emma had told to save the latter’s reputation. Severe Cross Questioning. State Attorney Deneen went at this witness with one of the most remarka- ble cross examinations ever heard in the criminal court. His questions were fired at her with the rapidity of a re- peating rifle worked to the limit of its speed. The witness was quick witted and replied promptly for awhile, but she was not as resourceful as the law- yer, and after half an hour she became confused, and her face blazed with ex- citement. Then she began to contra- dict herself as to important particulars and made corrections which weakened her evidence. The crowd at the courthouse today was larger than usual, and the struggle to secure admission to the courtroom partook of the nature of a riot. Hun- dreds were turned away, and the offi— cers on duty at the door had several en- counters with unruly visitors. Harry Fiedler corroborated Rosa Gleich’s story and asserted that the mother of the Schimpke girl compelled the latter to tell the story she did. .ieorge Sholey, a bartender at the Ma- ple House in Kenosha, Wis, testified that he saw Mrs. Luetgert on the night of May 3. He said she came into his sa- loon weary and with bedragged skirts. as if she had walked far. She inquired the direction to the house of a farmer named hiueller. The following day, Sho- ley said. he saw the woman again at Spring Bluff, a. suburb of Kenosha. Sholey was not acquainted with Mrs. Luetgert, but.from the‘description of her he was positive she was the woman he saw. Bank Note Companies Combine. Albany, Sept. 24.-—-A certificate was filed with the secretary of state today of the consolidation of the Franklin Bank Note company and the Homer Lee Bank Note company.
