from Juneau, dated August %, says;
Four steamers have brought upwards
of 800 people from the sound ports ano
San Francisco, together with horses,
cattle, etc., during the past few Gays
Those landed at Dyea are getting over
the Chilkoot pass all right, but zone ~
vet have gone over the White Pass ~
Skeguay. Many horses have bee"
ruined by the mire and men know they
cannot get through, so that many have
had their goods carried around 10 DS ca
but it is expensive, and large portion
of the army of travellers have 20 morey
for such purposes. They are now eat
ing supplies which they expected 10
use in The Yukon country. Quite q
lumber have turned back without al
lowing their outfits to be taken OFT IN.
boats which brought them up. The
dark accounts sent out of the condlllon
of affairs at Camp Skaguay are Confirm
ed. Miners are breaking down under
the terrible strain. Failures are nume'-
Gus. Thieving and crime has increased
to such q degree that the executive
committee has promulgated an order
to the effect that the first person
caught stealing would be hanged with
out the formality OF trial or leave to
say his prayers.
