.175 PASSENGERS ION RIVER BOATS
 UNACCOUNTED FOR
Three Steamers Missing For 72 Hours-Believed to
 Be Stuck on Bar.
TOTAL LOSS FEARED
Stranded Vessels Will Gc Down in Spring Breakup
 If Frozen In.

SKAGWAY, Alaska, Oct. 19.- Especial to The Empire. With 175 persons aboard including 90 mem- bers of crews, three British Yukon Navigation Ccmpany's steamers have been missing for the past 72 hours. The steamers are the White horse, Casca and Nasutlin enroute from Dawson to Whitehorse on their last trip of the season.
 Leaving Dawson on October 15, they made good time despite low water and ice conditions up river From reports received it is certain that all the boats are stuck on the bar at Kirkman, about 100 miles upstream from Dawson This place is narrow gut in the river and on a deep bend in the river. From there is practically 100 miles over land to the trail that leads to Whitehorse.
 Yukon Closes.
 The Yukon River closed at Daw- son Sunday night and it is very doubtful if the Inarooned steamers can put back into some slough on account of the low water and run hing ice. The only solution of the difficulty seems to be to beach the boats, if possible, and wait until the river freezes. The passengers can then travel over the ice. The great distance to the trail and the nature Of the country lying between the river and trail makes it seem improbable that any attempt will be made to get out that way.
 May Lose Boats.
 There is strong probability that all three boats may be a total loss to the company. If they cannot be gotten eff the bar it seems they must freeze in and go out with the ice at next Springs breakup. This together with the loss of the steamer Selkirk at the mouth of the Stewart River will prove disastrous end ing to a season of heavy passenger and freight revenues.
 Hippodrome Steamboating.
 dSSeIS6IS lGOHl tH0 steamer Washburn, the last boat to arrive in Dawson from the Lower Yukon River, who reached here yesterday tell of hippodrome steamboating at Cliff Creek, nine miles below Forty Mile. It was in this place that the Alaska and Seattle No. were held up for five days last season by heavy ice runs. The Washburn and U. S Government steamer Jacobs reached Cliff Creek together and encountered heavy slush ice tearing through a narrow channel The Washburn had in tow a barge loaded with Liberty motors and supplies from the re- serve store prepared for the New York to Nome flyers. Some of these motors were set up on the end of the barge; the two steamers coupled together; their stern wheels, start ed at the same time; some semi-pro aviators stepped on the gas of the motors and they ploughed their way through This after they had been held up for more than two days.
