Mcdonald Of Manitoba Has Had Enough,

.~,, ..-.. and Will Not Return.
. WINNIPEG, MAN.-Albert D. McDon-
aid Of Three Rivers has returned from the
Yukon territory and Alaska. He spent
one winter in the far north and says he
does not intend to spend another there.
In an interview he stated that the fall
rush out Of the Yukon is about over. The
freight blockade at White Horse is being
relieved, but there is likelihood that
those on the creeks will be without luxu-
ries this winter, as there are still 1900
tons Of freight that will not get into
Dawson from White Horse.
The White Pass & Yukon railway is
doing all it can to get everything into
Dawson, but the river is falling and it Is
thought it will not hold out long enough
to continue navigation until all freight Is
delivered at the Dawson terminus At
the time Mr.. Dawson left Skaguay> there
was but three and one-half feet of water
in the river above the danger line. Below
this line navigation is impossible. B.
The superintendent of the mission Of the
Greek church reports that the whites are
engaging in illegal practices to secure
furs, and are thereby depriving the ma
t1ves of their source of supplies, both for
food and clothing. The white hunters are
anxious to get the skins without injury
from knife wounds or bullet holes, and to
do this they have scattered poision at the
rookeries where seals congregate and
through the woods that are frequented by
wild game. This is in direct violation of
the law, but there are not enough officers
to enforce the statutes. 70
