hns been averted. A general strike,
which has been threatened for several
weeks in the event of the dismissal of

An ele.'tioQ for the third dourna has
been oriTered to take piace next
September.
It is thought that former Premier
Stol.vpiu who was forced to resign last
week, will be restored to royal favor.
His discovery ot the plot to a.-sassiuate
the ez.tr and make a republic of the
nation will probably cause the feeling

The ('asca will be put in the water j
at vVhitchorse and sent out for Dawson
