DISTRESS AT CAPE NOME.
DESCRIPTION BY A SAN FRANCISCO MAN
OF PRESENT CONDITIONS ON
THE GOLD COAST

San Francisco, July S0.-R. B. Dixon, a we'll
known San Franciscan went to Nome in June with
two hundred head OF cattle and the same number
Of sheep A letter has just come from him. giving
a terrible picture OF the restitution OF the ten
thousand the beach, who have no money
and can get no work Dixon writes under date OF
July 4
1 have sold all my cattle. and have only thirty
seven sheep left, but have not made as much as
expected. The expenses OF transportation and Nv
ing great man must figure closely TO make
any profit. This camp makes sick 10 see It's
misery. The beach diggings worked out no
get employment, and many have nothing
eat. You can see them lying around in the
morning on the cold ground asleep without blank
cts The streets full OF idle men daV and
night. Just tramping around till they go
longer. Then they drop down TO sleep anywhere.
There be thirty thousand people here and
fully ten thousand have no money TO get home and
nothing TO live They will have to be helped or
they will perish. This is the most overrated place
I ever saw. as nearly all the gold dust seen comes
from Dawson
