Sammy Maxwell, who went so gamely against Curly Carr at the Monte Carlo on Tuesday night and fought him to draw, has been matched to meet Joe Gregg at the standard on July i. Both men will weigh iu at ljo pounds, and their respective tackers have the stoutest kind of faith in their men. Curly Carr, it is said, is waiting to challenge the winner.
 "Dutch' and the "Scurvy Kid" both well known Ill sporting ell cleS, will meet in a 2O-rUuuu contest aJ the hinnte Carlo on the evening of July ,. Scurvy is not what his sobriquet implies, and Dutch is not a bit slow, ana an inter- esling bout may be expected.

Steamship Portland was sighted by the steam whaler Alexander on June IS almost 70 or 30 miles from the Dio- medcs. The Portland was under steam and was apparently doing her best to get out of the ice pack in the straits.
 This news was brought to Nome this morning by Capt. Triton, of the steam whaler Alexander, which reached here at clock, direct from the DlOmedes.
 Capt Tilton also sis hted the Jean,e on June 6. She wa, also in the straits ice pack, and was drifting nUrthward. The Alexander subsequently made a trip along the eastern Siberian shore, northward distance of loo miles. The ice pack became so heavy that the Alexander could proceed no further, and the vessel was forced to return.
 Three days ago the Thetis left Cape Prince of Na.eS, and Capt. HeaIy intended going into the Arctic lnmedi- ately.
 The Alexander has catch of four whales, the biggest take oi the season.

Manager Solner, of this bank, predicts a prosperous mining season, notwithstanding the extremely dry weather now prevailing.

 Scarcity of Labor.

James McFadden came down over- land from the Kougarok Wednesday morning. He reports travelling very fair, having made 55 lRileS afOot during the last day. Mir. MeFadden reports good times for those who are at present in tbat section. He says that consider able siuicing is going on now on the kuugaroll river and it's tributaries: bot h creek and bench claims are showing up better than ever before.
 The "California boys made some good clean-ups where they are working below the mouth of Arctic creek. The run of gold there is generally quite coarse; one $50 nugget was found and and number of smaller pieces running from Sl .U0 to Sl.j0.
 There is scarcity of men in this sec- tion as we'll as in the Bluestone and Agiapuk. The outlook is very bright, Mr. McFadden says that he is sure the kougarok will, this year, regain it's lost prestige. He returns Saturday. A. J. Glass has opened up boarding house on the upper kougarok.
