JAMES E. KELLY, passenger on the
Laurada, which recently arrived at
Seattle, WASH, estimates that there
are at ST. Michael's between 200 and
500 strange prospectors who do not
know where their next meal is coming
from. The government station on the
island is besieged with appeals for aid,
and steamship companies can obtain
any 1mber of men for any kind of
