 THE RAILROAD.

DAWSON, Sept 22. Special to al days freight traffic between Skag- way and Whitehorse has been seri- .ously delayed owing to recent floods in the Skagway river. The floods washed out number of bridges near .Skagway and the trains were unable to cross Running from a point four miles this side of Skagway, trans have succeeded in bringing mail. passengers and express thru but un- able to handle any freight.
 The first train to cross the wash out with freight since the flood will leave Skagway tomorrow and will probably catch the steamer Yukon for the lower river; the boat being due to sail this week for Fairbanks Every effort is being made by the railroad company to get the freight thru so that none of it will miss the last boat and be held here or at Whitehorse.
 Nine passengers for the lower riv- CT leave Whitehorse tonight and it is probable more will come with the same train that brings the freight. All lower river freight at Skagway is being rushed ahead of the Dawson shipments, as the latter can come in after navigation to the interior Alaska towns has ceased
