NENLCED BY FAMINE
Returning Klondiks Miners Add
- More Words Of Warning.
TIE FOOD SUPPLY INSUFFICIENT,

And From Present Indications 1t win
Be Impossible to Get Enough Pro-
visions to Dawson to Save the Peo-
pie From Starvation.
Otter Point, B. c., Sept. 1.-THE
steamer Cleveland has arrived from st.
Michaels. bringing with her from the
Yukon gold fields a story Of distress
and disaster. The miners she has on
board and officers in charge of the ship
tell the story Of disaster and distress
at Dawson.
The winter has set in at the mining
city Of the frozen north. and the two
great stores Of the place have closed
their doors. for they have nothing to
sell. Those who have been seeking
gold now must seek food or starve.
While there may be tendency to ex-
aggerate the actual condition of af-
fairs, there can be no question that
famine treatens the adventurous men
and women who made their way to the
Klondike.
If fortune favors, four vessels will
be able 10 reach Dawson from st.
Michael's before the Yukon freezes.
They will carry provisions, but 1t is
by no means certain that they will
reach the Klondike. They offer the
only hope, however. for a renewal of
supplies But even the arrival of these
four vessels cannot prevent terrible
famine.
Hundreds Of unruly spirits are flock
ing to Dawson, and threats Of violence
are being made on every side. Indig-
nation meetings, heavy with uttered
threats Of vengeance, are held at St.
Michael's by those who have little
hopes of advancing up the river and
less Of getting back to civilization.
Drunkenness, gambling and disorder
ers predict the most serious conse-
quences.
Shortly before the Cleveland left st.
Michael's two Of the expeditions, those
of the National City and Of the south
coast, held Indignation meetings,
threatening dire vengeance upon those
who had brought them there and were
unable to carry them further. They
had been left stranded at St. Michael's
and cannot possibly reach Dawson be-
fore next spring.
The first signs Of winter are apparent
on the River Yukon which Is beginning
to Freeze and in a few weeks will be
closed. Enormous prices are now be-
ing paid for food at Dawson, and 1t
is impossible that more than four ves-
sells with provisions can reach Dawson
before the river Is a mass Of ice.
The Cleveland brings Go passengers
and about 100000 in gold dust. Thirty
eight of the passengers are from the
gold fields and q are carpenters re-
turning from st. MichaePs, where they
went to construct boats. The story Of
the fabulous wealth Of the klondike,
Bonanza, Ell Dorado and other mines
tributary to the Yukon is reiterated by
the returning miners, but the warning
which has already been given to stay
away from the gold fields this winter
is emphasized by everyone in the band.
They say that hundreds of people must
60 hungry this winter, and that many
will certainly starve, as the food supply
in the country is far below what will
be required to keep alive those already
In Dawson City.

Ocean Springs Suffering From Lack Of
Food and Medicine.
New Orleans, Sept. 1.-THE an
nouncement of IL suspicious cases on
one square in this city, and that three
cases had developed since the death Of
a young lady who had come from Ocean
Springs. created alarm yesterday, but
this was allayed when the facts be-
came known. 1t developed that a man
had died as the result of excessive dis
sipation instead of yellow fever, as
reported, in the very same square In
which the suspicious cases had been
found. At nightfall all reports received
by Dr. Oliphant were SO favorable that
renewed confidence was infused In the
officials of the board.
One hundred and forty persons, white
and black, in Ocean Springs, by actual
count, are in distress, many being in
extreme need Of medicine and provis-
ions. Not a morsel of food or an ounce
of medicine has been given to any one
except by private citizens, who already
have been heavily taxed.
Sisters of Charity have appealed to
the authorities to be allowed to nurse
the sick.
The fever has not spread west be-
yond Biloxi. Biloxi is appealing for
medicine, and the situation in the town
lie apparently growing steadily worse.
