BILL JAMES BUYS
OUTFIT FOR NORTH
SEATTLE—Bill James, one of the
discoverers of the Chisana gold fields,
is in Seattle to buy a complete hy
draulic outfit for his property. He
will take the outfit in this winter,
• hauling it over the Russel glacier.
With Mrs. James he will visit the
!
Panama-Pacific exposition before re
turning to the North this winter.
James says that the camp has been
fairly quiet during the past season
because of lack of rains, making the
side creeks dry. There has been a
good head of water in the main creek,
however, and the large workings have
j been operated right through. He re
j con ’y sent out his season’s cleanup
amounting to nearly $100,000.

SEW LINER CALLS
FOR THE FIRST TIME
The steamship Kansas City, Capt.
ills Nord, of the Alaska Steamship
Company, called at Seward this morn
ng for the first time. The Kansas
Zity formerly was a passenger steam
er plying on the Atlantic Coast be
Aveen New York City and Panama
3anal, and more recently in the coast
wise traffic between Portland, Oregon
ind San Francisco. She is a large
steamer, her tonnage about 4,200
100 tons ncavier than the North
western, the largest steamer plying
between this city and Seattle, and
nearly 100 tons heavier than the
Victoria, the largest boat in the Al
aska Steamship service. Her freight
lurrying capacity is very large, be
ing able to handle 3,000 tons of
freight with ease. The Kansas City
makes this one run to carry freight,
accommodating no passengers. She
will be put in the steel yards and dry
dock immediately on her return to
Seattle from this trip for complete
overhauling and revising. At pres
ent her passenger capacity is about
equal to that of the Alameda, Mari
posa and Northwestern, but when
overhauled she will have much more
room to accommodate travelers, and
will enter the local passenger service
next Spring.
Capt. Gus Nord was master of the
Alameda last year for a few trips,
and was Liken off the steamship Jef
ferson, running from Seattle to
Southeastern waters, to make this
trip. Purser Lankin has been with
the Alaska S. S. Co. for many years.
The Kansas City loaded 1,500 tons
of copper concentrates at Latouche
before reaching Seward, thus account
ing for her delay. She arrived in
Seward this morning at 3:30 and
after unloading about 60 tons of
freight for the local merchants she
sailed at 10:15 for Anchorage where
she will unload nearly 1,500 tons of
freight.
The Kansas City carried mail from
Seattle here and mail going to An
chorage.
FORMER YUKONER MAY
GET A BIG ESTATE
Ralph Elliot, well known oh! time
mine operator, who was heavily inter
ested in properties above discovery
on Bonanza creek, may come in for a
big fortune, says the Dawson News.
His wife, from whom he had, seem
ingly, been living apart for some
time, died recently in Buffalo, New
York, and it is reported in a letter
just received, from Eos Angeles,
where he has been living for a num
ber of years, that he may inherit the
whole estate which she left, and
which is said to have aggregated a
quarter of a million dollars. In the
mail which arrived last evening from
Eos Angeles a former Klondike!*,
writing to the News, says that Mr.
Elliot has gone east to look after his
interest in the estate, and that
looks favorable to his getting it all.
