WITHOUT A SINGLE STEAMER

Will They See Service ON the "Ca-

The famous StIckeen route TO the In
terror Of Alaska, famous because OF Its
failure To prove anything like a suitable

single line OF steamers. The Canadian
Development Company has just Withdrawn
three OF IT'S four big steamers and has
started them under their own steam to
ST. Michael. where they will ply on the
Yukon river.
The Canadian Development Company
was backed by New York and British CO.
Iumbia capitalists. who invested a consid-
cradle amount Of money In building feet
of fine river boats FOR service on the
Stickeen. As travel kept getting lighter
and the experiences OF hundreds OF miners
proved the trail 20 be a complete failure
the company began to figure how they
could get ont at the least cost.
Their feet consisted 81 three fine new
boats. the Victorian. Columbian and Ar

and Argyle were built At Vancouver es-
peciaiy for the service ana cost tho de-
velopmeni company $1,000 each. The
Monte CfiSto was purchased from Seattle
parties. hAt proved 10 ne 4 bery good IN
