TONS OF GOLD FROM DAWSON Returned KlondikerS ES- innate the Output at
 $4O,OOO,OOO. Tell of an Increasing Stam- pede to the American Side
 of the Line. Single Nugget Valued at S9ooo Re- gently Found on Fl Dorado
 Creek.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

VANCOUVER. Mar 25.-The steam ship Pakshan, which arrived from Skaguay, Alaska, to-day, ha l among her passengers four men direct from Dawson City. They were J. F. Den ham of San Francisco, B. Lung of Ia coma, D. Lasalle of Leadville and C.. A. Goodwin of Los Angeles.
 They report stampede for the American side below American Creek. This section, they cl m. will beat the Klondike. Pay dirt is more easily di- vided and is shallower. A nine thou sand dollar nugget has been found on Fl Dorado Creek, they say. It is eStl- mated bv them that forty million dol lars in gold W Il be brought out this season. In speaking of the finding of the nine thousand dollar nugget. Good win said:
 ''That sounds like a tall story, l know, but it is fact. The nugget has considerable quartz mixed with 1t and is as big as small pail"
 The owners name. MT. Goodwin said, was being kept dark, as he hoped to get it out intact without paying royalty on it. Other rich strikes have been kept secret for a similar reason.
 The party left Dawson on February 15 In recounting the events of the
 
 500 miles the cold was intense and trav- cling extremely difficult. At the con- huence of the Stewart and Yukon riv- CTS they met the northwest mounted police detachment with TOO pounds Of mail.
 Goodwin says that at very conser- vative estimate at least twenty tons of gold will be brought out in June, when navigation opens, The country around Dawson was black with smoke from fires burning to thaw the frozen ground. Claims were frequently chang ing hands. Quite recently the Healy company had paid "Nigger Jim" $225,- GOO for three claims on Bonanza Creek.
 Claims on Bear and Dominion creeks, on the Indian and Klondike rivers, re- spectively, had been sold as high as $2O. 900. On Hunker Creek $20, 800 had been paid for a half-interest by a man named Elliott. and 900 for a whole claim. "Skiff' Mitchell, owner of No Eldorado, was buying several claims on Hunker at high figure when they left. In Dawson $60 a cord was the price paid for wood.
 Before the party left many reports were coming in of the richness of Clar- ence Berrys claims on the hillside o1 Fl Dorado. Reports were also being received every day of rich finds or American Creek, on the American side Rosebud Creek was drawing much at tention.
 None of the party brought out mucf actual dust, as drafts could be ob. tained at Dawson for gold at $15 50 ar ounce, and very few would pack duS under these circumstances.

Greenback, favorite for the opening race, bled, which accounted for his poor showing.
 Welch, who rode Foremost, was un- der the influence of liquor, and the judges ruled him off for an exhibition of foul and reckless riding.
 Anna Held, the actress, arrived in her special car at the track just as the field in the Derby was going to the post
 Carrier pigeons are again being brought into requisition at Ingleside to convey the results of races run to the poolrooms.
 Tod Sloan, who rode Linstock claimed foul against Thorpe, but nc action was taken by the judges.
 Had Traverser been started as a sep arate entry the ring would have laid 15 to 1 about him. As 1t was, he was : to 1 for the place and 21A to to run third.
 In the sixth event Good Friend equaled the track record for six fur longs of 1:13A, made by Crescendo.
 Fortunate pulled up very lame out of his race.
 Sevens was badly interfered with near the paddock. or the lilly would have been closer up.

"Pa" Bradley's Crack Colt Was in Front From
 Start to Finish.
Tod Sloan on LinStock, the Opening Choice, Was
 Unplaced.
Tho Winner Superbly Ridden bS Lonnie Clayton-FavOrites in
 Winning Form.

Derby day attracted large crowd to Ingleside track, but not 8 great one. In point of numbers 1t would not com pare favorably with the vast concourse of people which saw Scarborough take this classic event one year ago, and cheered lustily as Frank Coady landed the despised outsider first. There was no sweltering, hustling, bustling jam of spectators in the betting ring, and the layers of odds were never in 1m- mediate danger of being swept off the block from a flood of coin. But the contest for the rich $50OO prize was a good one nevertheless, and will live for time to come in California turf history, not only on account of the victory achieved by "Pa" Bradiey's chestnut simeon Traverser, but also the grand showing made by the maiden, Borgia, which ran close second and under more favorable circumstances might have been returned the winner.
 The big event of the day was fourth eagerly watched the candidates in their warming-up gallops. Of the original list of entries, seven were carded to start. Linstock, the mount of James Tod Sloan, struck the fancy of the crowd by the way he warmed up, and in the opening betting was chalked up favorite at odds of to 5. Burns & Warehouse started three-Recreation Napamax and Traverser, and they commanded second call with twos quoted against the trio bracketed. At post time the stable had been so heav- fly played that to was the best ob tainable, while Linstock receded to II to 5. Mat Storn liked the chances of his charge, Morellito, with Joe Piggott in the saddle, and he was in demand at threes Borgia was heavily touted, and the books never laid better than 10 to 1 about him. TorSida had but few friends.
 Very little time was consumed at the start, all getting away well with the exception of NapamaX, which became entangled with the barrier and was eased up. AS predicted, Lonnie Clay ton, who had the leg up on Traverser, led the bunch past the stand, with Linstock and the others close up. A mile was covered and still Pa" Brad ley's chestnut showed no signs of back ing up, and the riders on those behind him were growing anxious. Before the stretch was reached. Recreation bump ed Linstock and his goose was cooked. In the run home, Conley went desper- ately at work on Borgia, and though the maiden showed to be made of the right sort of stuff, his ride was trifle l-timed, and Traverser, all out, car ried off the long end of the stake by a length reeling off the mile and a quar- ter in 2:081a. Thorpe, on Recreation, was third, five lengths away. Morellito disappointed her admirers, apparently being out of it before half the distance had been travelled. Lonnie Clayton, on the winner, rode an admirable race, and received about as stirring an ovation
The San Francisco call., 1898-04-03

as 1t is possible to stir up on call fornia race track, where the sampilns spirit alone prevails.
 The other six events passed off with out especial incident or accident. F1rs' choices took four purses.
 Billy Randalls Tammany colt, Green back II. was played down to to fa- voritism to win the opening six-fur- long selling run, but had no speed whatever. Queen BlaZes led to the stretch, where Clayton, on the to l chance, St. Philip, took the lead and won ridden out from Octuruck.
 The fast but faint-hearted R. e. Ban was sent out a slight favorite over Po- tentate and Abina in the six-furlong sprint that followed, and ran third. Abina, with Clawson up, raced Poten- tate to a standstill, and in drive led Daily Racing Form out less than length in 1:15 flat.
 Our Climate was considered a cer- tainty for the mile hurdle event. and coupled with his stable-mate. Fore most, the pair went to the post to 5 race from the start. Pines on Veragua took hold of Our Climate from the start, and after long hard drive got the verdict by over a length in 1:491a, a new track record.
 The mile handicap was gift for the Corrlgan entry, Joe Ullman, the faVor- ite, ridden by Sloan. The chestnut horse overhauled Libertine in the stretch, downing Galen Browns old sprinter under restraint in 1:41 flat. Myth finished in the show.
 Tom Ryan had the fast brown lilly. Good Friend. entered in the sixth event at six furlongs. and was made the me- dium of heavy plunge, her odds be- ing forced down from 4 to g. After Valencienne had chased out in front at terrific clip. Clawsop on Ryan's lilly made his move and overtaking Mo- Light and Valencienne, defeated the former half length in the fast time of 1:13H.
 Willie Sinks colt, Forrnero, added one more to his long string of victories In the last event. The youngster was 1 to choice over the field of two- year-olds, and at the wire led Santello out over length, covering the four furlongs in 4S&. Sevens was a close third.
