According to Mr Wheeler, the Kou
garok mail carrier, there is a most
marked difference in the snow condi
tions on each side of the Nome divide.
On tlie hither side the snmv is rapidly
disappearing and all the streams are
running, while on tlie north side there
i.s absolutely no sign of t lie breakup.
This condition prevails clear up to the
Kongorok. At the time the last mail
left Shelton, water, in considerable
volume, was running in (he Kuzltrin.
Air. Wheeler says that the traveling is
generally bad.

Mr. J. A. Cooper has received two
letters from men of unquestioned ver
acity, who are prospecting in the
Koyuk district in the vicinity of the
new strike on Dime creek, both of
which hardly support the previous
stories emanating from that section
as to the extent and value of the pay
streak. Doth writers are unanimous
in stating that the strike is greatly
overrated. One of the writers under
date of May 10, says: "I have panned
four pans on Ryan's dump which was
supposed to average from four to five
cents but the best I could get was
about a cent The most encouraging
ground was that of Wall. No. fi above,
one hole showing eighteen inches of
gravel carrying values of from ten to

ping sharply, indicating that the pay
is on the rim and there is a possibility
of a channel below the present hole.
The writer states that some friend had
seen two pans taken from Porter’s
claim, one of which went ten cents
and one fifteen but aside from these
two there was little else which could
ho termed more than a prospect. The
Smith ground, the writer says, was
"supposed to have four to five cents to
the pan on the rim" hut it is intimated
that he did not see any of it. The La
Montangue ground has colors “that is
all.” In conclusion the writer says
that after looking the ground over he
"felt like pulling up his stakes." The
second letter, which was written on
April G. also states that La Montan
gue “has colors, no more." The writer
says he is prospecting but has not
reached bedrock. The letter concludes
as follows: “I am afraid the strike
here is most hot air." These men,
whose names are withheld on request,
are practical miners and experienced
men and their opinion is worth listen
ing to.
