NEAR SKISMAREFF
Clutched iu the grip of the great
gale that raged across Bel ing sea dur

schooner Sea W olf, of Nome, was cast
ashore on the desolate northeastern
coast of the peninsula, about twenty
miles from Schisinareft, while return

coal from the Lasburne mines. The
reports indicate, however, that the

Silv er Wave.
According to the story reaching '

reported that they passed a launch
some miles north of Teller in which
were at least a portion of the crew. As
the Silver Wave had departed for
Kotzebue at the time the report was
delivered to the Nugget, it w;cs im
possible to secure additional details.
The- Sea Wolf departed for the coal
mines near Cape Lusburne on th< 14th
in charge of Henr> Webber, mi ex

waters, and a crew of three men, con

Apparently all went well with the ves

by the t'nited States coast guard cut

west of Cape l.isburne. A day or two
after her arrival at the coal mines, the
Sea Wolf was joined by the Ikiwak,
the small schooner piloted by Tony
Nicholas, which arrived here yester
day. After loading up with something
like thirty tons of coal the Sea Wolf
departed on or about the 5th for Nome.
The Nicholas boat was still at the

MAINE REPUBLICAN VOTE
SHOWS 35% GAIN
International News Service.
AUGUSTA, Sept. 13.— Complete re
turns show that the republicans have
swept the state, capturing all of the
leading offices by substantial majori
ties while the progressives returned
the field.
The republicans elected the governor,
one state auditor, two senators and
four representatives to congress and
— ■
took away the control of the state
house from the democrats.
The republican gain represents an
increase of thirty five per cent while
the democrat gain is only slight above
seven per cent, disclosing that the im
pression created by the national ad
ministration has not seriously changed
the political inclinations of the voters
of this section.

NEW YORK, Kept. 13.—The strike
situation is growing steadily worse and
there is now every indication that it
will eventually become necessary to
call out the militia to prevent the riot
ing which is fast becoming more dif
ficult to handle.
It has been discovered that the
strikers are now plotting to destroy
the property of the companies by the
use of explosives.
I'ndeniable evidence of this inclin
ation was discovered by the police
today in the shape of a bomb filled
with blasting powder which was plac
ed on the tracks of the subway within
five hundred feet of the down town
station in such manner that the wheels
of the passing trains would explode
the charge. Severe rioting has taken
place during the morning hours and a
total of fourteen arrests have been
