The exciting voyage or the schooner
Louise j. kenney, which finally ended AZ
Dutch harbor on May 8. Is the principal
item OF news brought by the Sunol. The
Kenney sailed from here about month
ago with large Chicago party bound Tor
Hooper bay. at the mouth OF the Yukon.
She managed to get as far north as Cape
Pierce but was driven back by the great
quantity of float Ice and strong north
west gales. She had had bad weather on
almost every day OF her long voyage and
weathered a series OF heavy gales without
damage. II was absolutely impossible TO
get anywhere near Norton sound. The
party owning the Kenney decided to build
their river steamers a. Dutch harbor and
tow them to the Yukon when completed.
The Kenney was unloading when the SUI
mol left She viii return 10 Seattle as soon
as her cargo is ashore.
The bark Harry Morse was like the Ken
ney. unable to get to Hooper bay. Too
much ice was encountered for her captain

back 10 Dutch harhor. She arrived there
on May and was getting out her big cargo
when the Sunol left. She has number or

with the river steamer Gov PIngree In
tow. 1t Is probable that she will discharge
at Dutch harhor and NIL attempt to get
into Norton sound. The Sunoi DID not
sight the Brixham.
Schooner +. w. Jewett had about un-
loaded her cargo at Ufalaska and ex-
pected 10 sail for the Sound on May II.
The brig Courtney Ford was to sal. for
Seattle on May IL. The bark Carrolton ar
rived after n stormy trip on May and
had started discharging cargo al Dutch
harbor.

days from Seattle and had a very stormy
passage All OF the prospective gold seek

but could not distinguish names.
Capt. Dettmen says that everything was
quiet at Dutch harbor and Unaiaska when
he left. Over one thousand men were AT
work on the river boats that were build
