ice breaks up about the 20th of June
and forms again about the same time
in September. There are now several
steamers on the river belonging to the
Alaska Commercial Company and the
North American Transportation and
Trading Company, both Of which have
trading posts on the river, with head
quarters at st. Michaels. Both COM
panies are building several new vessels
tor next years traffic.
The outlook for this route next sum-
mer is that the number of steamers ON
the river will be utterly inadequate to
accommodate the persons who will be
landed by thousands at st. Michaels by
steamers and sailing vessels, though
there are numerous projects on foot for
building steamers on the river in the
spring or towing them thither. As
every vessel on the river will probably
run in connection with some regular
ocean line, and as the Probabilities are
that the ocean liners will carry more
passengers and freight than the river
steamers can handle, it would seem as
though the only persons who will stand
any show OF getting through to Dawson
by this route will be those who pur-
chase through passage from the starting
point to their destination for them
selves and supplies. Those who pay
passage only to st. Michaels, or who
reach that point by independent steam
ers Or vessels. will probably b unable

climbing done was greater than by the
Chilkoot pass, where the ascent was
gradual to the foot of the summit di-
vide, when one very steep climb was
necessary. The practical result was
that very much larger percentage Of
those who tried the Chilkoot pass sue
ceeded in reaching the lakes, than Of
those who attempted tn. Skaguay route
Nevertheless, improvements are now
being made on both trails, and both
will be extensively used in the spring,
it Icing much easier to 60 in over the
snow, when the rocks and mud which
made the trails SO difficult last fall are
covered up.
There are projected improvements
for both of those trails, in the nature
of railroads and tramways, but az yet
only Chilkoot pass shows anything tam
gible. A combined railroad and tram
way is under construction and is prom
sed to be completed by the first Of Feb
ruary. for the taking Of freight from
Dyea through to Lake Lindermann. The
probabilities are that this convenience
will be provided BY that time, or
shortly thereafter. The company oper-
ating it purposes to contract to carry
freight from Dyea to the lake at price
much below what it would cost to pack
1t over, and to handle it so promptly
that BY the time the owner can walk
over tho trail his freight will get
through. With this tramway in opera
tion, and nothing similar on the Skag-
nay trail, the Chilkoot pass would ret
III the travel. There are, however,
still other tramways and railroad pro-
jects on both trails, but when they will
be ready for use Is uncertain. At the
present time It would seem = though
