FEDERAL OFFICERS AFTER
ALASKA STEAMER CAPTAIN
A dispatch f 10m Seattle says there j
are three sets of Federal officials on
the trail of Captain Fred Warner, a
well-known Alaskan navigator and
master of the steamship Victoria, who
is alleged to have stopped his vessel
off the port of Victoria on his north
bound trip in June, and taken on board
four barrels and twenty-six cases of
whiskey for delivery to the >k:#UHirn
port.
investigation has implicated one of
Nome's nationally known operators
as an accessory in the law violations.
.
The departments conducting a rig- ;
id investigation of Captain Warner’s
alleged irregularities are the Treas
ury department, the steamship in- j
specters and government prohibition
enforcement men. if the charges are
proven it will result in a heavy' fine
being placed against the vessel for
taking on cargo from ports not men
tioned in her clearance papers, and
the probable loss of the captain’s pa
pers.
Captain Warner is well known in
all the coast towns of Alaska, he hav
ing been master of one of the local
i
liners up to the beginning of the war
4
when he was transferred to a freight
ship on an East coast run, later be
ing given command of the Victoria.

AMBASSADOR’S FATHER
LOST CARGO OF FLOUR
| IN ‘FRISCO GOLD RUSH ;
| SAN FRANCISCO, Sept., 2— The J
fact that barrels ’ of flour floated ,
j
around in San Francisco bay in the
!
year 1850 could hardly be expected to j
interest a present day ambassador 1
fr4m Chile to the United States, said i
I
Beltran Mathieu, the Chilian Ambas- j
sador at Washington, but this case j
it was a matter of family history.
Mr. Mathieu said that his father, a
young Chilean merchant, conceived
the idea when the California gold
rush spread to South America that
flour would be much in demand in |
San Francisco. So a ship was char- \
tered, loaded with flour and the sails j
set for the noi-th.
i
Unfortunately for Mr. Mathieu’s
(father, many other people had decid
ed that similar ventures in flour would
be profitable, and when his ship sailed
into the Golden Gate flour could hard

ly be given away, there was such a
supply there. The elder Mathieu took
his cargo of flour and dumped it over
board into the bay, sold his ship for
what little he could get for it and de-^
cided to make San Francisco his fu
ture home.
For several years he ran a store in
San Francisco, but finally sold out and
returned to Chile, where he remained.

His task is one to test the adminis
trative ability of any man. Jerusalem
i4 a city of disunions, where, whatever
may come of the future, for the mo
j ment Zionists and Arabs are passion
ately divided and to steer a just path
between them and induce them to Join
! him on that path is thankless work.
It is to that task however, that he
; chiefly devotes himself. Twice a week
he has meetings of his favorite pro
Jerusalem society, where French, Ital
ian, British, Americans, rabbis, Zion
ists, leaders, commercial men of stand
ing and others who are in any way
i
prominent in the life of the city are
brought together and in the course of
debate, led to see that they have in
common a single citizenship. His mot
to as governor is “unify* and be
friends.”
Colonel Storrs was one of the prime
movers in the establishment of an in
dependent Arab kingdom. He is 38
yeai-s old.
