 h8E X BLIGHT

The Dawson News of March 26, says:
 Recent arrivals from the south ern portion of Yukon Territory bring word that prospectOrs who staked on DonneI creek, the scene of the recent rich discovery of plac- CTS on the British Columbia side, near Atlin. found, after doing ex- tensive development work that the ground Was held by a OCu,ossiou- aire under concession lease Ruff uer obtained the lease years ago. Business men from Whitehorse who recently arrived here brought down the news, and some of the best prospeetorg and miners of Yukon who were headed for the strike heard the news and turned back.
 One of the men hit the trail out from Whitehorse in this di- rection several days ago. When two posts this side of WhitehOrse he met J. W. Staufield, of Dawson, who was stampeding for DOnnel creek Stanficld then learned of the con sessions, and also turned back, and Is in Dawson. He states that he was on streams around Donnell in early days of the Atlin camp, and knew of gold being there in en- couraging quantities, and hence was pleased to return until he found the concession blight still applies in British Columbia. stan field had been up the White to the Chlsana this winter, and OH get ting back to Mouth-O-White hit off double quick for Donnell. After up the Yukon with his dogs on travelling the hundreds of miles on the Journey and hearing the con- cession news, he was so disheart- ened he immediately returned to Dawson, concluding that the mining laws in this tterritory are far ahead of those in British Columbia.

THEY MUST USE
 THE WIDE TREAD

The Dawson Daily News of March 24th says:
 "The Yukon council yesterday heard interested parties on the ordinance to amend the highways law, and to make it compulsory to use 56-inch runners on the over land trail. The White Pass opposed the measure, and was represented by General Agent Edwards, who brought several teamsters as wit nesses, and presented q petition from other teamsters. They claim ed the wide tread not suitable to fast travel in passenger business, and that they are much harder on horses, especially the light fast horses on passenger stages. Other teamsters were brought by some who contended otherwise. The coun- ell passed the bill at the session this morning without alteration. thus making it compulsory for stage and freight rigs on the overland road to have wide sleighs after this season. Automobiles have the same tread as the 56-inch sleighs, and the wider sleighs will help main- tain a suitable track for autos as we'll as for the sleighs.

Stanfield states that British Col umbia also has other distasteful features in its mining laws, among them one that requires the claim owner to remain on the claim con- stantly unless the recorder be given q reason which in his judgment is satisfactory. The much-hated miners license was the cause of no end of litigation and rebellion against the government in this territory in early days. Long hard fights were necessiitated in kill ing the license and the concessions in Yukon.

W. H. VANCE
 MAY COME BACK

From information imparted to a Daily Alaskan man by a Humboldt passenger this mornng it is learn ed that a rumor is current in Van couver, B. C., and pretty generally believed to be true, that Wm. Vance the well known miner, who was in the employ of Col. J. H. Conrad for a number of years, will reach here in a few days on his way to the Venus mine, in the Bennett Lake district, with plenty of money to go ahead with it's development. We understand that he is backed 0y $2,OOO.OOO of working capital.
 The ore in the Venus mine has already been proven to be of ex- .ceeding richness, and 1t was only because of a stringency in the money market that work upon it was abandoned two or three years ago.
