Report is Wrong
About Dorflingel

Reports that Clarence Dorflinger
had been lost on his way to the
Tolovana camp We're corrected late
yesterday afternoon by B. S. Ken
needy, who stated that Mr.. Dorflinger
and Jim Sherrard mad QUILTED at
his store to 30 on prospecting
trip to new creek.
The explanation was made after
a part of this paper had gone to
press. and il was too late to correct
a statement appearing on another
page TO the effect that Mr.. Dorfling-
er had been missing for several
days. 1t seems that the two men
started on d quiet stampede and
that they kept their friends in
ignorance in regard to their destin-
alton.

LIKE DAYS Of
OLD At THE
Loo Jam NOW
CONDITION AT LOG JAM
ON TOLOVANA RIVER.

Returning Saturday evening with
the launch Elmer c.. in which he
with others Transporting the freight
OF Paul Riueseth to the new dig
eings in the Tolovana. George Com
stock told of conditions at the log
jam on the Tolovana river. Con
corning reports of new discoveries,
Comstock knows nothing, merely
stating that he heard that Harry
Patterson and partners were making
cleanup on the day he left TO
come back to town. and that they
expect to bring out a poke of gold
within the next few days.
LIKE oLDEN DAYS.
Mr. Comstocks description of
conditions at the log jam brings
back old packing days to the minds
OF the old timers. When the Fair
banksan first arrived at the log
Jam no less than so men were en-
gagged in portasing freight on their
backs Some of them were carry
ing their own freight around the
jam. while others hired out as
packers. carrying all kinds of
freight for three-quarters of cent
pound
a SEVEN CENT RATE.
Mr. Comstock is of the opinion,
based on all of the data he was able
to collect. that Fairbanks freight
can be landed at the forks of the
Tolovana river. 90 miles above the
log jam by water. and eight miles
from discovery on Liyengood creek,
for seven cents a pound. even with
he present means of transporting
it across the portage. Polling boats
and launches can be used above
the jam, although it is slow work.
When Mr.. Comstock left the jam,
the DOMAIN, with shipment of
freight OH board. had reached a
point about 80 miles above the
portage. The Wigger scow and two
other gasoline boats besides the
DOMAIN are also engaged in trans
porting freight. while one polling
boat with three men left the log
jam with a 6,500-pound load.
OTHER BOATS THERE.
Mr. Comstock reports that J. E.
Moodys launch and sawmill outfit
arrived at the log jam in good
shape Mr.. Moody expecting to con
tinue on to Fork City Immediately
The Tolovana No. l, owned by Frank
Manton, Robert Smith and others
/ had also reached the lam as had
the Tolovana No. ,. owned and
managed by William Ahlmark.
FISHERS TRAIN.
Mr.. Comstock exhibits some very
good pictures made at the log jam
which tend to show conditions there
Among other things shown is the
method being used by Walter Fish
ct in transporting his sawmill out
! fit across the portage. He placed
| all of his paraphernalia on skids
with the boiler and engine in the
| lead, and then tied it to tree
with a cable, pulling the entire load
| inch by inch with the cable, and
| tying to a new tree when necessary
is GOING AGAIN.
Mr. Comstock expects to leave
! for the Tolovana on another trip
with the Elmer G. within the next
few days. He will take in rails
and other supplies for the tramway
at the log jam.

There is much business activity
