A store is reported to have been looted and burned, the storekeeper killed and another fatally wounded. The Little Salmon Indians are said to be over the outbreak of the hostile tribe, and are sending their squaws and children to the police detachment of Tantalus, near the Yukon crossing, for protection. It is stated that from 200 to 250 Indians .are in the hostile party, headed by two well known chiefs. At last accounts they were holding a war dance and working themselves into a murderous frenzy. Trouble with the Indians In the region between the Little Salmon and the Pelly has been expected for a long time. Many of them are known to be of a treacherous, revengeful nature. A motive for the outbreak is furnished by the hanging of three of their number In 1899 for the murder of a prospector on the Little Salmon. The execution took place in Dawson at the local barracks. panic-stricke- UTAH STATE NEWS. It stated that President will visit Utah some time Ug now rjmg May. L. H.

The proposal of President Castro to the allied powers for a peaceful settlement was Mr. by suggested Bowen, and It came to the state de partment through his hands. It has been forwarded to London and Berlin through the embassies at Washington, and as both Great Britain and Germany have heretofore professed a desire to settle the issues peaceably, it is hoped that they will avail themselves of this opportunity. The proposal did not mention the method of arbitration nor the limitations and points of doubt which may prevent the acceptance of the scheme, which are believed to be Castros unwillingness to bind himself in advance to the recognition of the principle of liability; be would leave the arbitrators to determine whether or not he Is liable at all. MRS. GRANT DEAD. Wife of Former Fresldent Succumb to an Attack of Ueart Failure. Mrs. Ulysses S. Grant died at her residence in Washington, D. C., at 11:17 oclock Sunday night. Death was due to heart failure, Mrs. Grant having suffered for years from valvular disease of the heart, which was aggravated by a severe attack of bronchitis. Her age prevented her rallying from the attacks. Her daughter, Nellie Grant Sartoris, was the only one of her children with her at the time of her death, her three sons, who had been summoned here, all being out of the city. There was also present at the bedside when the end came Mrs. Rose Mary Sartoris, a granddaughter; Dr. Bishop, one of the attending physicians, and two trained nurses. Death came peacefully, the sufferer retaining consciousness practically to the end. Word has come from Jesse and U. S. Grant, Jr., two of the sons. In California, that they have started on their way to Washington. The other son, General Fred Grant, is in Texas, and he will hasten there as soon as he receives a message telling him of his mothers death. The remains of Mrs. Grant will be at Riverside deposited park, New York, where those of her husband now repose. Suffering with what the doctors believe to be hydrophobia, caused by a scratch on the wrist by a pet Maltese cat, Thomas Rogers, an engineer In one of the big down-tow- n buildings, is dying in Bellevue hospital, New York. About three weeks ago he was scratched by his pet cat. He thought nothing of the wound, but a week ago be was suddenly seized with convulsions and began to froth at the mouth. The paroxyism was over and Rogers felt better a moment later. A physician was called, but was unable to diagnose the trouble until he heard of the scratch on the wrist. Then he suggested Rogers might have hydrophobia. Rogers became worse and was taken to Bellevue hospital and put in the Insane pavilion. There he became violent and went from one spasm into another until exhausted. The, physicians are still inclined to that it is a case of hydrophobia, and say the patient will probably die. be-,'le- Italy Also Has a BUI Against Venezuela.

With these words Lucille Gage, the daughter of H. T. Gage, governor of California, on Sunday cable, chrlstewd the trans-Pacifi- c and, breaking a bottle of champagne over the shore end, inaugurated a new era In the commercial development of the Pacific coast. The landing and splicing of the shore end, which is to connect the mainland with Honolulu was accomplished without hitch of any kind, and was witnessed by 30,-0- 0 or 40,000 people. The total of the cable from San Francisco to Manila will be 6,871 miles, plus 10 per cent allowed for slack to follow the contour of the uneven sea bottom, or 8 miles In all. This will be the longest single cable line in the world. The link between San Francisco and Honolulu will measure 2,178 surface miles. The next link between Honolulu and .Midway will measure 1,140 surface miles. The third link between Midway and Guam will be the longest of all, 2,293 surface miles. The last link between Guam and Manila will be 1,360 miles. It will reach the island of Luzon at its northern extremity. It is estimated that. the entire cost of the completed cable from San Francisco to Manila will be in the neighborhood of $12,000,000, including the various cable stations and regular expenses of installation and such exigencies as experience snows must be met. Inasmuch as the cable company has filed with the postmaster general its acceptance of the act of congress of July 24, 1866, relating to telegraphs it is under moral obligations to sell its cable and property to the government at any time at its appraised value. The postmaster general has the right annually to fix the rate to be charged lor the government messages that will be transmitted over the cable, and governmental messages will enjoy precedence in transmission over all other messages.
