FARAlLON SAILS SOUTHWARK
Returns from Westward in Three
 Days and Leaves Again

Steamer Farallon returned from the westward Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock and sailed for the southward at II. She was ready to go at , but on account of the thickening weather Capt. McGregor decided to lie at the wharf until an hour which would take him to the straits of Prince William Sound after daylight this morning. The Farallon will take on ore at La touche.
 Nothing is known of the Dora at the ports touched by the Farallon. The last heard of the little westward boat was when she left Kodiak December 24 for Dutch Harbor and way ports. It is assumed that she has been tied up by the unusually rough weather which has prevailed all along the coast as far as Southern California during Decem- Der and Jannary. The Farallon had passable weather except that she was held twelve hours at the entrance to Cook inlet brfore she could get inside to go to Seldovia and Homer. From there she went to Kodiak and straight back to Seward. She was gone only three days and six hours, almost a re- cord trip for this time of year.
 It is reported to be the intention Of 7he Northwestern Steamship Company to send boat to the westward soon on the Dora's run to look up the missing steamer and to take freight and mail to the ports on that run, which have had none for two months, and some of them perhaps not for three months.
 It had been thought here that the Excelsior would go westward from Seward but she went back to Valdez without receiving the order. Freight Clerk Lockhart of the Oregon, who is temporarily acting as agent for the company in Seward, thinks the Excel sior went back to Seattle because otherwise the company would have no boat to sail by the inside passage Feb ruary Is, and the mail contract im- peratively requires that a steamer should sail on that date from Seattle. The Santa Ana is to make an extra trip, sailing February 6, and she may possibly be sent westward.
