SEATTLE, WASH, July l2.-Several
vessels are now due from st. Micdaels

their arrival for the reason that late ad-
vices from Dawson by way Of the Up

bring large amount Of gold dust. The
total amount is estimated all the way
from two to FIVE millions. In addition
to the gold, it is expected that they will
bring definite and detailed information

there was an extra charge OF two cents and
