OVER ICE AND SNOW.
Ex-Mayor Wood Returns From His Trip
TO the Frozen North.

Seattle. April l-Ex-Mayor w. ID.
Wood arrived here to-day from the lower
Yukon. having made a trip of more than
1890 miles over ice and snow with a dog
team with the thermometer ranging from
10 TO 90 degrees below zero. Nov IL Mr..
Wood and II. W. Carr started up the
Yukon from the mouth of the Tanana
river. They stopped at Fort Yukon ana
Circle City several days and arrived at
Dawson Feb. ~. on Feb. "a they started
from Dawson to this city.
Two days out from Dawson they met
the Canadian mounte police with a large
amount of mail. which has been eagerly
expected at Dawson all winter.
Everything was quiet at Dawson. Mr..
Wood says that from investigation made
by him he this springs clean
up i'm the Klondike district will run be-
tween ten and fifteen million dollars. The
greatest sensation OF the winter at Daw-
son has been the discovery of coarse gold
on the hillsides between Bonanza and Ell
dorado and between the Big and Little
Skookum gulches. The largest nugge so
far found. $3.50. was found on this ground.
Miners seem at a loss to account for this
deposit on ground that is from 20 to 800
feet above the bedrock of adjacent creeks.
II IL not yet known whether such depos-
its are general or merely local in this in
stance.

the one that occurred Feb. 16 to Swede
creek. six miles above Dawson. In the
rush four men. whose names could not
be learned. persisted from the cold.
While en- route from Tanana river TO
Dawson Mr.. Wood paid particular atten-
ton to the mineral district on the Ameri-
can side of the line. and his observations
have made him enthusiastic over its pros
poets. There has been a great deal of
prospecting along all the creeks from the
Tanana to Forty Mile creek his winter
and the results obtained are very encour-
aging. There seems to be a general
movement of prospectors to this section
The Lower Rampant and the Kotukuk
are especially promising. There is a re-
vival in interest around Circle City.
Before MIR. Wood left Dawson Jach
Carr, the well-known mail carrier. had
arrived there. bringing mail from st. Mi
chael and lower Yukon points. This Is
the hrst word to be received this winter
from st. Michael. IL should reach thu
coast I'm a few days.
Particular interest attaches to the ar
rival of Mr.. Wood, owing 10 the fact tina
he was the organizer of the expedition
which left here last August for Dawson
City. but. owing to the lateness of ths
season. only reached a point about loo
miles above st. Michael. where IL wen
into winter quarters. IL was reported sew
eral times that Mayor Wood was I'm dan
ger of personal violence from his disap
pointed followers. He says there was no
the least foundation for such reports.
