AN ARCTIC DISCOVERY.
An Immense and Hitherto Unknown River
Awaiting Exploration.

San Francisco, Oct. 9-Leutenant t:Stoney,
who went up on the last trip of the revenue
cutter Corwin for the purpose of distributing
among the Tchuckchee Indians, of Alaska,
$4,000 worth of presents given them by the
government in recognition of the shelter and
food afforded to the officers and crew of the
steamer Rogers, burned in 1881, reports the
discovery of an immense river hitherto un-
known to geographers. The river had been
vaguely spoken of by the Indians to former
explorers, and Stoncy, being COM
PEELED to await the return trip of the
Corwin, determined to see if there
was anything in it. mpanied by one
attendant and an Interpreter, he proceeded
inland from Hotham inlet in a southeastery
direction and struck what he believed to be
the mysterious rive. He traced it to its
mouth, q distance of fifteen miles, where he
saw such immense pieces of floating timber
as to satisfy him that the stream must be of
immense length. He retrsced his steps, a
distance of fifty miles, where he encountered
natives from whom he learned that to reach
the headwaters of the unknown stream would
take several months. The Indians told
him they came down it a distance
of 1,500 miles to meet the fur
traders, and that the river went up higher
than that. Having no time to go further,
Stoney returned. 1t is his opinion, as stated
by those on the Corwin, from whom this in
formation was obtained, that the discovery
of this river accounts for the larger amount
of floating timber in the Arctic popularly
supposed to come down the Yukon. The
Indians stated that the river, in some places,
was twenty miles wide. 1t is within
the Arctic circle, but in August when
Stoney was there, he found flowers and vege-
tation not hitherto discovered in so high lat
itudes. He has forwarded his report to the
Secretary of the Navy, and hopes he will be
permitted to come back and continue the
explorations
