FAMINE ON THE KLoNDIKE.
A Special Correspondent Paints Drear!
 Prospect for Gold Seekers.

San Francisco, Aug. 29.--W. A. Ryan, one of the special correspondents of the Associated Press en route to the Yukon gold field, writes from St. Michaels un- der date of August 15 to the effect that there is grave danger of a famine on the Klondike this winter. According to all reports received from the upper country, it will be impossible to land sufficient food at Dawson City to sup port the population already dependent upon that base of supplies. R. T. Long, local agent of the Alaskan Commercial company at St. Michaels, declares that there are already over two hundred idle men in Dawson City, and new par ties are arriving every day, while the total amount of freight landed there this year will not exceed four thousand tons, of which not more than three- fourths is provisions. Miners return ing from Klondike who left there in July report that the food was running very low then, and it was disposed of as fast as discharged from the steam CTS. Old-timers realize the situation. and predict distress and death as a re- suit of the Klondke craze.
 William Oglivie, Dominion land sur veyor, who has been making topograph- ical surveys of British possessions along the Klondike, has been recalled by the government for consultation in regard to important matters concern ing the gold fields. He will make re- port embodying suggestions for new mining laws, governing the sale of liq- uor and taking wood for fuel, etc. He made a census of the production of the new fields and finds that twenty-three claims produced sS26, ,OO0, and says that seventy millions is no exaggerated es- timate of the amount that will be pro- duced by one hundred and eighty claims on Bonanza, Hunk river and FL dorado in three years.

 Referring to the meeting of the min CTS leaders and the railroad labor un- lon representa- lives in St. Louis to-day, MT, Mcintosh added:
 Tn Pennsylvania they are simply awaiting the result of that conference before they open their mines. The of hcials of the labor organizations have put their heads together, and just what their programme is not even the min CTS themselves know. I think that but little will be accomplished at that con- ference, so that I really fear the men will have to go back to work at the old scale of wages, and, indeed, the poor fellows will be only too glad to go back"
