CAUSES WORRY
Shipping Men Fear Expert
ence Of Last Year Has
Been Repeated to Portland
OREGON HAS RETURNED
Vessel Brings Half a Mil
lion Dollars in Bullion
From GOldfieldS of Nome
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SEATTLE, June 22.-After bucking
heavy ice foes in Bering Sea that for a
time threatened to drive the vessel back
to Dutch Harbor, the steamer Oregon
reached port early this morning from
Nome, establishing a record for being
the first vessel back from the gold
fields this season and making a quick
round trip. The Oregon brought four
passengers and $500, 900 in bullion.
The steamer Corwin which sailed
from Seattle May II, was the first yes
sci to reach Nome. The evening of
June the Corwin arrived in sight of
that place.
Fears are felt for the Alaska Com
mercial Company's steamship Port
land. 1t was the general opinion at
Nome when the Oregon sailed that the
vessel had been caught in the ice and
carried far into the Arctic Ocean. Last
season the Portland was imprisoned in
the ice for fourteen days. The vessel
was one of the first to reach Dutch
Harbor, and should have been in Nome
ahead of the Corwin.
Nothing was seen of the Northern
Commercial Companys steamship Sa-
die. The Roanoke was reported as hav-
ing reached St. Michael. The steam
ship Tacoma reached Nome the morn
ing of June IS, and the steamships Vic
toria and Senator followed the same
afternoon.
The steamships Garonne and Olympia
were not sighted. Conservative esti-
mates place the winter cleanup at
Nome and vicinity at 1000, 900. James
Wood is reported as having taken out
more than $150,0O0, which will be
shipped to Seattle 'on one of the next
boats out. The steamship Roanoke,
due to sail from Nome for Seattle
about June %, will have another large
gold shipment, and it is thought that
the steamers Senator and Victoria will
also have gold cargoes. Marshall Rich
ards has twelve prisoners for McNeils
Island. The men were to be sent out
on the Oregon. but were delayed.
Residents of Nome reported to the
officers of the Oregon that the winter
had been extremely mild, with very
little snow. The place was remarkably
free from sickness Notwithstanding
that heretofore Nome has not been
classified as a winter digging district
Major Strong, of the Nome Nugget,
is authority for the statement that the
dumps taken out last winter have to
date produced a sum in excess of
81, 100000, and the work now remains
incomplete on account of a shortage
of water.

paratus and ID days time, these gases
are made part of the liquid product.
The result is product that does
what oxygen does; and oxygen is the
very source of vitality, the most essen
tial element of life. The effects of
Liquozone are exhilarating, vitalizing,
purifying. Yet it is a germicide so GER
tain that we publish on every bottle an
offer of 81 900 for a disease germ that
it cannot kill. The reason is that
germs are vegetables; and Liquozone
like an excess OF oxygen-is deadly
to vegetable matter. That is why
Liquozone kills every disease germ,
and with product which to the human
body is life.

the germs, and such results are indi-
