TO
INVESTORS

We invite your attention to the prospectus Of
the YUKON TRADING. MINING
EXPLORATION COMPANY, Limited. and.
as purely a business proposition. would ask for
same your careful consideration.
1t is proposed by this company to send out tho
most thoroughly equipped expedition which has
yet left for the Klondike. composed Of none but
experienced miners. accustomed to the hard.
ships Of rough mining camps. These men will
be under the direct control of +. Eugene Glad
win, who has had q large and varied experience
in tho working OF mines and developing mining
properties. and who for the past two years has
had entire charge Of a group Of mines in Kern
Co.. California, in which tho officers Of this cor
poration are largely interested.
These miners go under q contract which pro-
vides that the company shall own f~fty.one per
cent. of all the claims located by them in consid.
GRAFTON for their FREQ transportation and tho
necessary supplies furnished for their existence.
The company will acquire further properties by
purchase, option, location or otherwise, and
with that end In view George NJ. Belden sailed
on the steamer Cleveland on Aug. 9Th for St
Michacls. en- route for Dawson City, where he
will bond q largo number of claims to be taken
over by US as approved by our board Of en-
gineers.
We have secured a large steamer capable OF
carrying $500 tons. dead weight. and it is pro-
posed to take q full cargo Of provisions and
miners supplies. over and above the actual
amount required for our own expedition. With
these, trading posts will be established under
the personal supervision of ". T. Criswell. who
has long been connected with commercial in.
terests in Alaska and on the Pacific coast.
1t is expected that this commercial feature
of our business alone will yield a profit many
times over the cost of our investment, leaving
the profits from our mining ventures as all
clear gain, and we believe for every thousand
dollars invested many thousands will be re-
turned.
The promoters Of this company having faith
