San Francisco. CAL, NJ arch IA
mysterious expedition left to-day for
Alaska. The steam schooner Excelsior
was chartered and so quietly was the
matter carried out that the owners of
the vessel, O. A. Hooper & Co., know
hardly anything of the plans of the
managers.
Last year some wealthy citizens Of
Boston heard rumors of immense gold
bearing deposits at Cook Inlet, and A.
Pennock, an experienced miner. was
sent up to view the country. He made
a thorough search for the shining metal
and, In his opinion, was successful be-
yond all question. Pennock, with a
few friends, at once measured off 10
acres OF land which showed gold from
the grass roots on to bed rock. Water
rights were sold and the prospectors
washed out a few ounces and started
for Boston. The gold is both fine and
coarse and the mint here values it at
SIG per ounce.
The Boston investigators incor-
porated as the Alaska & Boston CO.
and 500, 900 was paid in. Henry h.
Spaulding and G. I. w. Braman, the
latter being at the head of the West
Side electrical roads, came to this city
and at once began preparations for the
expedition.
The destination OF the expedition
has been most carefully guarded, but
it is known that the objective point ia
