SOME POINTS ABOUT ALASKA.
WHITE PASS TRAMWAY ABOUT
COMPLETED.
Interesting Interview With a Man
Recently Returned From
the North.

| Ensley A. Webster Of Portland, Or,
| is visiting the city. Mr.. Webster re-
| turned recently from Alaska, where he
spent part of the summer, having left
Skaguay as late as December Sth. He
had made several trips over the White
Pass to Lake Bennett and was on the
summit on the 9th Of December, two
days before he left Skaguay.
The latter place, said Mr.. Webster,
is becoming very important and -four
| ishing business town. People are pour
ing in there by every vessel that ar
rives and preparing for the grand rush
to the Yukon in the spring. A tram
way with wooden rails is now being
constructed from Skaguay to Lake
Bennett, a distance of thirty-six miles
and covering the hardest part Of the
journey. Light cars drawn by horses
will be used, or possibly propelled by
| light locomotives.
A few months ago it cost as high as
81 a pound to have supplies packed
over the trail to Lake Bennett, but the
| tramway will greatly reduce the cost.
The trail used last fall was a very
narrow one, and at times there were
hundreds Of horses plodding over IT and
passage was at times completely
blocked Horses were worked to death
in the wild rush to get through, and
their carcasses are streWn along the
trail
Mr.. Bennett says there is considerable
grass along the route, but the lnrushmg
miners would not stop to feed their
horses. He saw one horse at the sum-
| NIT, where it had been abandoned, and
the animal had grown fat and so splr-
tied that no one could catch him.
Speaking Of dogs for sled service In
that country in winter, Mr.. webster
said that the common ours are the best,
because the hardest. Big New round
lands and ST. Bernards, he said, had
proven failures there because they
could not stand the cold. He saw one
Indian with four small dogs of kind
called ''skoovies," which are a cross
between the Alaskan and ESqulmaux
breeds, and with them he hauled 2oO
pounds at 80 cents pound over the
| Chilcoot Pass in three days.
Some of the Indian packers. said Mr..
Webster have become rich since the
rush to the mines commenced He
knew several that had saved up from
$1,000 to $1,000 each.
he does not regard IHe HdtiVeS as III
dams, exactly, for he believes they are
but recent offshoots from the japanese
| race. They dress like white people,
and nothing is too high-toned for them
| in the way of wearing apparel. The
women about Skaguay are just as
dainty as their white sisters, and 1t is
amusing to see them raising their pret-
| ty skirts and showing their stylish
shoes when crossing muddy street.
"They are very polite, too" said Mr..
Webster. I'm coming out of store
one day I happened to collide slightly
with one of these finely dressed
squaws. She bowed politely and said,
| in good English, oh, l beg pardon!'
The Alaskan natives are natural
| traders. and no one can get the better
of them. The rush of whites to that
country is going to make them all rich.

Mr.. Webster says the work on the
aerial ropeway over the Chflcoot Pass
is progressing slowly. He does not
think it will be success, as it will be
liable to get out of order easily. The
climate at Dyea is not so pleasant as
at Skaguay, for the wind is sucked up
the big gorge there and it is cold and
bleak.
The day he left Skaguay, December
Sth, the mercury was at seven degrees
above zero, and two days before that,
when he was at the summit of the
White Pass, it was just at the freezing
point, 80 degrees above.
Mr.. Webster is here to see few
friends, and expects to leave Portland
in about week for Skaguay, where
he has business interests

completed their work of invest.
CATION, and have sailed to Key
West. The finding of the inves-
tigating committee has not been
made public, and everything is re-
ported quiet in Cuba; in the mean.
time Uncle Sam is preparing for
any emergency. The ingestiga.
ton shows beyond a doubt that
the battleship Maine was foully
dealt with, and everything indi-
Gates that the plot was the das,
tardly work Of the Spanish gov
eminent, and Uncle Sam has not
hesitated TO place the blame at
their door. If the board of inqui.
ry found evidence sufficient to
substantiate the fact of conspira-
cy on the part of Spain, Spain will
be called upon to indemnify this
government the damages, and a
refusal to do so, will precipitate
war.
