sum of $900 for services rendered.
After listening to the testimony, Judge
Crawley allowed the lady the full
amount of her claim.
Tho Kegonyah Kozga. the most

Tho schooner Bellndu, of which Fred
Larsen, the Teller mall contractor, is
now master returned from Teller with
a total of eighteen passengers from
the northern metropolis and including J
practically all of the operators from
the York and Teller section with the I
exception of the dredge crews from
York, who are still employed. Tho
schooner Ram also brought down a
considerable number of passengers,
including A. Wittenberg and the crew
of the wrecked schooner Sea Wolf.
Among the arrivals on the two vessels
were tho following well known people:
Capt. Ernest Miller and E. W. Dawson,
both of whom are from Herschel Island
having reached the Port Clarence
metropolis some days ago on the
whaler Herman, Harry Dobson and
wife. Max Hirschberg, Billy McCurdy,
B. 8. Roberts, Tom Dunkin and Henry .
Webber, master of the ill fated Sen
Wolf.
A. Wittenberg reports having re
ceived a letter from Ills son Loo, who j
is in charge of the trading schooner |
Challenge, which Is probably by this 1
time at its destination. Victoria Land, j
unless untoward ice conditions have
prevented. The letter was written at
Herschel Island, Sept. 2nd and states
that the expedition was in line shape
and everything going smoothly. No
ice was encountered between Point
Barrow and the island and the coast •
appeared clear to the eastward. Leo ;
says that he expected to have no dif
ficulty in reaching Victoria Land before i
the rail lee closed the Northern son for
the winter. The only incident of note
related is that the Canadians at Hor
se-in II Island taxed the expedition a
goodly sum by way of customs duty
on the goods and supplies carried, but
Leo expected to make a pretty fair
profit on his cargo at that.
A. Wittenberg reports that, after
laboring long and industriously, it was
found impossible to float the schooner
Sea Wplf, owing to the vessel having
developed numerous leaks as a result
of its experience in being tossed up
on the sandy shores of the Schismareff
coast while coming to Nome some
weeks ago, with a cargo of coal from
the Lisbourne mines.
Mr. Wittenberg states that the ves
l ^-;—
ho I is little damaged. One plank was
knocked out and the calking In a num
ber of the seams was loosened but
otherwise the stout little craft Is In
good shape and will be launched on
tho ice next spring. Mr. Wittenberg
says that the wrecking crew and him
self hkd an experience that would
form a good theme for the novelist who
deals in the cast-away-on-a-desert
tslo type of yarn as the crew were not
only cut off from tho mainland by high
water for a time but also run short of
provisions and came very close to
having to subsist on sea gulls and fish
■n the genuine novolesque fashion I
Having ta.tcn provisions for only five'
inen for a period of thirty days he
found that the grub was getting de
cidedly short before the wrecking
operations could bo concluded, as he j
employed a number of natives after his 1
arrival in the hope of getting the ves
sel off somewhat sooner. This extra ,
Industrial development would have
been all right, as there was plenty of
reindeer and other supplies to be ob
tained on the mainland, were it not :
that high water cut off all communlca- j
lion between the shore and the sand
bar on which the vessel was cast. Mr.
Wittenberg and a native finally start
ed out with a frail and decidedly un
seaworthy small craft to obtain pro
visions and after a thrilling experience
managed to reach Capo Prince of
Wales. He says that tho life of the
hardy frontiersman is all right but he
much prefers the comforts of home
and civilization.

Ben Bernard, manager of the Am
erican Dredge Building nnd Construc
tion Co., returned on the schooner
Belinda from an extended visit to tho
York and Teller district yesterday.
He reports that he lias a drill crew
working on Swanson and Orleans
creeks and the results of their pros
pecting to date have been so gratify
ing that he has proceeded to disman
tle and move one of the Anacovlk
dredges of the company to Swanson
creek where it will be placed in readi
ness for operation during the coming
summer.
Mr. Bernard also contemplates doing
extensive prospecting during the win
ter for both tin and gold. During his
stay he bonded several properties and
is now in Nome for the purpose of
securing supplies and equipment to be
used during the winter. He also ex
amined a number of properties for
other companies and individuals who
conteniplato installing dredges. Mr.
Bernard reports that both of the tin
dredges at York have had a success
ful year in a mining way but exper
ienced considerable difficulty in load
ing their product for shipment to tho
outside owing to the frequent and
long continued storms. He says that
there is approximately 100 tons of tin
concentrates at York awaiting trans
portation at ttie present time. While
the steamer Valdez was off York, tho
I’ghter employed in handling the cargo
to and from that vessel was lost and
•esultod in a serious handicap to tho
'"ghterage of tin but Mr. Bernard
managed to load about forty tons of
tin nnd also 100 oil drums on the ves
sel In means of natives and skin boats
before the storms suspended opera
tions. Mr. Bernard says that he had
quite an exciting time in the boating
line since leaving Nome, having made |
finite a number of trips by small boat.
On one occassion, accompanied by a
native and in a skin boat lie made the
trip from York to Teller. The weather
was none of the best and the trip was
anything but a pleasure Journey, Judg
ing from Mr.Bernard’s reference there
