STR NORTHWESTERN HITS ROCK
BUT IS NOT DAMAGED
The steamer Northwestern, which left Juneau at 7 o’clock
yesterday morning, struck a rock off Panock Island, near
Skagway, and for nine hours the vessel was hig and' dry. On
account of the cable being out of commission it is impossible to
get the details of the accident, but information has been re
ceived to the effect that the steamer finally got off the rock
and proceed on its way. The extent of the damage, if any re
sulted, is not known._
Agent Tallent received a wireless message from Skagway
this afternoon announcing that the Northwestern would reach
Cordova Sunday afternoon at 3 o’clock. She has a large cargoi
aboard for here, consisting of 75 tons of freight for local mer
chants and 375 tons for the railroad, including 100,(XK) feet of
lumber. .Just how many passengers are booked for Cordova
is not known, as the list was not telegraphed from Seattle when I
I tin* vessel sailed from there.

PHOENIX, Oct. 9—Dynamite was
found today in the lot adjoining the
home of business manager Dulbage of
the Phoenix Gazette. It is thought by
the police authorities that the dyna
mite was intended to injure Dulmage.
as he has been the chief exponent of
the operator’s side in the present
strike in the copper mines, and has
thereby incurred the resentment of the
strikers.

, Falcon Jaslin, president of the
Tanana Valley railroad, arrived in Cor
'dova last night from Fairbanks. He
i made the trip overland to rhitlna in
'one of Thomas Gibson's Ford machines
| and he was six days on the trail, the
roads being in an almost impassable
^condition in places. From Rapids to'
Yost's there was from one to two feet!
of snow and from Paxson's to Gul-!
kana the mud was almost knee deep. '
The only decent piece of trail was
i from Gulkana to Chitina, this dis
| tance of seventy-five miles being cov
ered in less than five hours.
Mr. Joslin is very optomistic asj
to the future of Tolovana and says it;
is only a question as to how large a |
j camp it will be. He reports thr.tj
j plenty of good pay has been found on j
; Livingood creek, aid there is somej
j promosing ground on Hess creek:
i there is a large watershed with big,
streams and good gold prospects.
| Thusf far but one hole has been sunk,
| but a dozen outfits intend working
: there this winter and the next three
j months should demonstrate the value
! of the ground.
Since leaving Fairbanks Mr. Joslin
j received word that Gug Peterson ar
: rived there with a poke of $6,500 in
J gold dust, representing his clean-up,
; and Kinney and Franklin uncovered
a nugget at Tolovana, weighing 66
ounces. It is estimated that the sea
son’s output at the new camp will be.
$60,000.

Germans Still Fighting to Capture Dvinsk.
LONDON, Oct. 9—Advices received from Petrograd state
hat Hindenberg is making renewed efforts to capture Dvinsk.
Flic Germans made some slight gains in front of the city yester
Tay but the stubborness of the Russian resistance has not been
ireken, and Hindenberg still lias a gigantic task before him,
before he can compel the armies of the Czar to evacuate the
rity.
"BERLIN, Oct. 8—The war office announced officially that
die advance of Hindenberg against Dvinzk was proceeding
satisfactorily. The Germans had' captured some of the im
portant Russian positions, and yesterday made a further ad
vance by taking a series of the Russian trenches three miles in
