American Mail Thrown Ont

San Francisco March 21-The Call is
informed that the frequent failure of let
ters from the United States to reach the
klondike is largely due to the fact that
the contractors who bargained with the
Canadian government to carry the post al
matter from SkagWay to Dawson refuse
to handle any mail which does not bear
the Canadian postage. 1t is alleged that
mail matter from the United States is
thrown aside when it leaves the steamer
and at the present time it is stated that
about 10000 tons Of mail matter bearing
American stamps is piled up in heaps at
SkagWay.
