Letters From -Four YakimanS In Alaska
Contain Many Items Of Interest.

Quarantine Against Oregon sheep
A sad Death.

A letter dated at Sksguay, Sept. oath,
and addressed to Mr.. A. B. Wyckoff is at
hand from Peter Norby and contains
many items of interest. He states that
all of their goods are within four days OF
the lake and says that only four parties
that went up on their steamer are ahead
OF them. Besides Norby, there are in
the party, McDaniels, Jungst, Krober,
and Miller. Two Of these are about to
begin the con struction of boats while the
others finish packing, and the plan is to
separate into two parties at the lake and
90 down in two boats. They are still in
hopes Of getting through this fall though
they may conclude to stop on Stewart
river. Pete's trip down to Sksgusy,
where the letter was written, was for the
purpose Of getting oats, which cost him
$40 for two and half sacks. They have
fed two tons Of grain and have lost Z
out of Is horses. There are 1900 dead
horses on the trail.
Miss Pearl Bounds is in receipt Of a
letter from her brother Will, who is at
Dawson City, dated August 9Th, wherein
he states that he 10 working for $40 per
dav and board. He has a standing offer
of 5000 for his claim but is confident of
getting a better figure before he gets
ready to come out which will be next fall
when he expects to bring down SIS, 1000.
He incidentally asked his sister to send
him a watermelon, a beefsteak, some
straw berries and cream and bicycle.
Fred Jungst to Mr.. Gets from Skaguay
under date of Sept Is, and stated that on
the next day camp was to be moved from
the ford, where they had made head
quarters for some time, to the second
meadows, which is IS miles from Skag-
uay and on the east side OF the summit.
They are moving very slowly but as fsst
as anybody else. The weather had been
very bad, there having been only four
clear days since they arrived and the
moon having been visible only one night.
The trail is covered with mud knee deep
and they are wet all the time. The
poor horses give out and have to be re-
newed. His party has lost seven and the
Simmons party has lost the same num-
Der. Fred expressed some doubts about
being able to 90 down the river before
winter sets in, brt he 10 in good health
and determined to make the best of
whatever comes.
Mrs. Simmons received a letter from
Dan this week that is full OF interesting
matter and we regret that lack of space
prevents our giving it in full. When he
wrote, his outfit was within three days of
Lake Bennett and he was somewhat of
the opinion that the party wouli do some
prospecting on Stewart river before start
ing down for Klondike, and expressed a
possibility of remaining at Stewart river
for the winter. Oats were SIS per sack
st his camp and hard to get at that. He
reported the capture Of six grouse by one
OF the party and closed the letter to give
his attention to delicious grouse stew.
