Crowdcd-Mnny Mining Companies
Organized In san Francisco.

San Francisco Cal, July 23.-Among the
arrivals from Alaska on the steamer Bertha
was DR.. G. +, Dickinson of Kodiak Island,
which lies Just at the head OF Cooks inlet.
He says the gold excitement all over the
territory OF Alaska is something uuprece-
dented and that people are flocking TO
Klcndlke In a way that threatens to de-
populate many OF the trading posts and
coast towns.
When left Kodiak two weeks ago."
said Mr.. Dickinson, 1.-THE people were leav
ing that section of the country and flock
ing in the direction OF Klondike. Mines
that are paying handsomely at Cooks inlet
have been deserted. There are just as good
placer digengs 10 be found at Cooks inlet
rs in the Klondike region. There is not
foot Of ground in all that country that does
not contain gold In more or less appreciaole
quantities. Tho great trouble has been
that people have not had either the cour-
age or opportunity, l 6s rot know which
10 thoroughly prospect the country. | think
that in another month the country about
Cooks inlet will be practically deserted
There is room there for thousands of men
and there is certainly no better place in
the world for poor man."
