ne foregoing telegram was received
yesterday bv P. D. Copeland. Skagway
agent for the Klondike Corporation, owner
and operator of the steamers mentioned
The Flora has the honor of being the first
steamer from LaBarge to get through to
Dawson this season. and Copeland IS
jubilant and has decorated the front of his
office with brooms. He had predicted this
triumph for his company and Is bathed in
smile of self-congratulation,
Macdonald Potts, general manager for
the Klondike Corporation, arrived vester-
dav from Victoria on the CITY of Seattle,
and was also highly gratified at the ac>
complishment of the Flora
The Flora has been the first steamer to
get down the river to Dawson for the last
three seasons, ever since there has been a
steam craft plying In those waters, and so
proud Is Mr.. Copeland of the fact that he
has already claimed the honor for 1901.
1t Was reported here Yesterday that the
steamer Cleaner, now at Bennett, will
make an attempt Monday to steam to Carr
ibou. Some say there is too much ice in
the lake, but others think that she may be
able TO follow the narrow oIen strip on the
east side and to cut her wav through.
Should the Cleaner make the start Mon
day she will have the honor of being the
first boat to move on the lake this season.
The other large steamers are still on the
ways.
1.-THE steamer Ora" says Manager Potts
of the Klondike Corporation, f'has been
DELAYED in getting into Dawson bv having
to stop at Tulare for freight. The Flora
Is to start back from DAVIS n for La9arge
or White Horse right awav, and the Ora
will also turn back just as soon as she
makes Dawson and discharges her down
river cargo. A. l.. Lewis, agent for the
Klondike Corporation, was aboard the
Flora on the trip down. He will visit
Dawson and then return up the river and
be stationed at this end of our run this
season.
"Our ste amer Nora, which has been
lying up in Lake Marsh during the win
ter. has been replanked about the hull and
sheathed with steel about that part where
the ice NAV strike her. This will protect
| the hull against the cutting of the ice.
Just as soon as Marsh opens the Nora will
start running"
Mr.. Potts is here en- route to Dawson :.
and returned to Victoria. He predicts
heavy freight traffic this way all the sea-
son and SAYS travel will be heavy in the
fall He predicts the independent lines on
the river and lakes will have all the bust
ness they can handle, and corroborateS the
report that they are to enjoy the same
through rates Of freight from the Sound
and lower British Columbia ports to Daw-
son and Atlin as the White Pass & Yukor
will give in connection with the Canadian
Development Companv's steamers. HI
saws the Independent boats will get ar
even better rate.
81 had an option on several large steam
ers for the Yukon waters" saws Mr.. Potts
"but because of the low water that will BIZ
in the river this season have decided moi
to take up the option.
81 shall spend nearly all the summer be
tween Skagwav and Dawson looking afte
