According to a Petersburg report,
Krause was at Petersburg before
the arrival of the Admiral Evans,
cm whico he had said that he wont
there, and it is further alleged
that the story; that he bad got
down without paying far© would in
dicate mat he was trying to avoid
the circumstance that his name was
not on the passenger list.
Juneau, Dec. 6 — The United
States attorney's office tentatively
agreed Saturday with. Kazla Kraue
zunas, of counsel for Edward
Krause, that a preliminary hearing
will be accorded Krause tomorrow
(Tuesday) at an hour not yet desig
nated. it will be before U. S. Com
missioner J. B. Mais.mll.
Mr. Krauczunag will ha>a no lo
cal counsel to assist him, he said
today, at least for the present. If
the case comes to trial his osso
ciate counsel, J. Grattan O'Bryan of
Seattle, will come north.
Personal effects of James O.
Plunkett are said to be in the
hands of the federal authorities
here and it is believed that these
will play a conspicuous part at tie
hearing.
The rowboat which Krause is be
lieved to have taken from Plun
kett's launch Lue, and rowed into
Petersburg, arrived in Juneau yes
terday on the Humboldt and will
be kept in the basement at the

GAMBLING?
AT HAINES
(Special Correspondent)
Haines, Dec. t;—Last Friday ev
ening, Camp Hamee No. 17, of the
Arctic Brotherhood gave an enter
tainment in, their hall, and there
was about one hundred people pres
ent. Tlie entertainment was typical
of a gambling house in a mew min
ing cam*), which, it was intended to
represen', and was a good represen
tation iu every thing euccept the
drinking, intoxicating liquors being
eliminated.
The roulette wheel, Black Jack
and crap tables were la evidence,
besides other minor games, such
as whist, pinocclu and five hun
dred, and all did a thriving busi
ness with the bogus money, which
was furnished free of charge.
About eleven o'clock, when the
games wore all running at their
utmost capacity, four masked nine
bioke into the Lail, one had the
historic Winchester rifle, drawn on
the t'ro»vd, and the order oame,
"throw up your hands," ai.-d the
hands of all preseut went iup all
over the hall. Some even got oa
chairs that they might hold their
hands a little higher, in order to
show Mie bandits, that they were
obeying orders. The hold-up artist
with the Winchester held1 the crowd
while the other three helped them
selves to the money on the gambl
ing tabies. It is estimated that
the robbers had something like fif
ty thousand dollars, (bogus mon
ey), which they stuffed Into a
gr.'p, and then started to make
their getaway. The bandits, how
ever, made a fatal mistake by. not
placing a man oa guard at the door,
and when they attempted to go out
they were met by the deputy mar
shal and his posse, and a desperate
battlt ensued. While the battle
was go.'ng on, a tellow from the
inside of the hall proved himself
an adept by gett'ng away with the
grip containing the money. The
bandits were finally overpowered
by the marshal and his men and
were all placed under arrest. This
ended one of the most notable
hold-ups that ever took placa In
Haines.
At eleven thirty a fine lunch was
served, after which the floor was
cleared for danc'ng, which con
tinued uutil 1:30 o'clock, when the
party broke up, everybody feeling
that they had enjoyed a good even
lug's entertainment. Camp HaInee,
appreciates and thanks I>r. L. 8.
Keller, Past Grand Arctic Chief,
who contributed largely, by help
ing with the music and otherwise
to the pl-easura of the occasion.
Fred Msyer, "who came in the
early days, now has his family With
him In Halnea. He had not Be®11
them after he left his home In t^e
east, In the early 90's, until he
saw them In Haines a short tlma
ago. His children, who were aU
small, when he left home, are now
young men and women. W-0 are
glad to join with Mr. Meyer In wel
coming his family to Haines and
hope their homa here may be all
that they desire.

Councilman Brltt at tho council
meeting Inst evening stated that
the legislature unseed an act that
the mayor, city treasurer, city at

made elective, and that each city of
the first class was to vote on the

It seemed to be the sentiment of
the councllmen that unless the citi

vote to be taken on the question
at the neat regular session, it 'was
not up to the council to take ac
