UPPER YUKON
STILL Open

SEATTLE, Oct Although the
Upper Yukon river is still navigable,
the close of navigation is expected to
come within the next few days. Last
year navigation closed October II, in
1905 two days earlier, and in 1904 and
'03 on October IL. The record was
made in 1902, when boats were operat-
ed as late as October II. The steam
boat Dawson, which left White Horse
last Tuesday, will be the last boat of
the season making the round trip. The
White Horse Star, in speaking of river
conditions, says:
while the water is now in very
good shape, the rush of late business,
which was expected, is not materialiZ-
ing. and where 5000 tons of freight
was expected not to exceed 500 to 500
tons are actually coming, and the SUI
perintendent says that the close of nav
igation will not see a pound of freight
on the wharf here unless it be some of
the Guggenheim pipe, which is not
needed al Dawson this year All other
consignments will be forwarded in
