The Call has received, via steamer Cit!
Of Seattle, a letter from it's correspondent
Sam. Wall, who succeeded in reachin
Dawson City on September 18th, after
perilous trip in a small boat from For
Yukon.
He was the first to give the news e
the people of Dawson of the failure o
the relief ships TO get up the river. tn
god-seekers, he says. are confronted
with famine, and there will undoubtedi!
be intense suffering during the wintel

The Dominion police have announce
their intention Of Selling all superAuou'

gamblers and the disreputable element
and dividing them pro rata among th'
furnishing citizens. Everything possible
will be done to alleviate the distress.

transportation business i'm the Yukon
basin. His teams now run all winter

mouth Of Pelly river. His last trip to
Juneau was by boat as far as Lake Ben
nett
Chamberlain says that II there IS dan
ger of famine, he believes Mckay has
teams and facilities enough 10 haul the
supplies stored at Fort Yukon to Daw-
son as fast as will be needed. The most
alarming Of tho reports sent out about
the prospective famine admits there is
food enough on hand for all for four
months, and that If 1000 of those now at
Dawson go TO Fort Yukon, $50 miles
away all will have plenty. These re-
ports are dated about october. Mr.. Nc
Kay would therefore have three months
in which TO get up supplies from the port
before there would be any actual want
While there are probably but two or
three boat-loads of provisions at Fort
Yukon. it is likely that plenty of sup
plies can be transported from Lake Lin
derman by the Chicoot aerial tramway,
which, IT is said, will be in operation by
January 18th.
