The eeyser-Marion Shipment

The serni-montG1Iy shipment of Gey-
ser-Marion cyanides was sampled at
the Salt Lake branch of the Con. Z. G.
Smelling G Refining company yester-
day.
The run for the two weeks amounted
to IS, 400. and the product was very
rich, running from SIS TO s26 in the vel
low metal TO the ton, the shipment car
ryfng S,616 ounces in the precious metal

one of his short voyages on the lake.
His boat was running close to the Pro-
montory shore when 1t glided into
water that had an unusually smooth
and CLASSY surface. Mr. Payne made
an examination. and satisfied himself
that he had discovered petroleum He
then searched for the source from
which the oil came, and found a natu-
raj spring among the rocks beneath the
waters of the lake. He failed to make
q location Of his valuable find then, but
came home and told some friends of his
good luck.
1t is said that some of these friends
beat him back to the Promontory, and
when he went to stake out his claim
they had already made locations near
by. Mr.. Payne, together with William
Ogden and James Simpson of this
place, have since had locations re-
corded, however. and they are hopeful
of realizing handsomely from the dis
coYery.

Lake Linderman. n. W. T., Aug. Z.
On Lakes Linderman and Bennett
are nearly 500 people actively making
preparations and building boats for the
descent to the KIondyke. The Skagu-
way trail is open, and the first con-
tingent reached the Agish lake on
Thursday last, numbering 200 people.
The trail is nearly 80 miles long, and
horses are able 10 pack 25O pounds from
Salt Water to Tagish- Nearly 1000 peo-
pie are in camp at Siaguway, and it is
expected that they will reach the lakes
in ten days. That route viii take nearly
all of the travel from the DYea route,
except during the winter and spring
months.
The opening of the Skaguway road
is sure to cause travel to continue as
late as Sept. 10. At present, the Dyea
trail is blocked with freight and pas

There is good reason, moreover, for

privilege SO long enjoyed by the Cana
dian railroads at the expense Of their
American rivals. Such a decision will
