THE QUEEN SAILS.
PORT TOWNSEND, Sept. S.-The
steamer Queen sailed for Alaska at a
late hour tonight, and notwithstand-
ing the fact that on her return from
the north only four days ago, she
brought thirty-f1ve disguised men from
Skaguay, she carried North ITO bound
for the Klondike via Dyea. They all
expressed themselves as confident of
their ability to cross the pass and reach
Dawson City this fall.
Stories of the miserable condition Of
the pass appear to have no influence
with the people in their mad rush for
the gold fields.
While at her dock here this afternoon
the Queen was subjected to a rigorous
search by the customs officers in quest
Of contraband intoxicants Nothing
aside from a small amount of private
stock was found, as a result of the fact
that a regular saloon outfit was seized
on the steamer Al XII yesterday. All
the ships now bound for Alaska will be
subjected to a careful search before
sailing from this port. Collector of
Customs Hustis has issued orders TO
search every boat closely, bound for
Alaska.
THE EUGENE AT PORT TOWN
SEND.
PORT TOWNSEND, Sept. S.-Not a
little surprise was created here this
evening when, without previous an
nouncement. the stern-wheel steamer
Eugene steamed into port. The cause
of the surprise was that only two days
ago the Eugene was reported TO have
been deserted in Alert Bay, where she
was said to be going to pieces. The
old craft is in a bad condition. but is
far from being wreck
When she started from Comox to ST.
Micnaeis, in tow of the steamer Bris-
toll, it was hoped that good wea Their
would prevail but the first nieht ont
a rough sea was encountered, and the
Eugene having a fiat bottom began
to pound the sea heavily. Shelter was
found in Alert Bay. AS the Eugene
had entered and left British Column
bia for st. Michaels without going
through the forms required by the GUS
toms authorities, an effort was made
to seize her While she was in British
waters, and she was chased :0rty
miles by the tug Hope, which was sent
out from Victoria with customs off,
GERS aboard, but Captain Lewis says
he would have burned all the bacon
aboard before the Eugene should have
been overhauled by her majestys Off
GERS. There is a chance that the craft
will he seized by customs officers, as
she was not cleared when leaving her Q
for the north ten days ago. Her case
Will be acted on tomorrow morning.
