Has an Active Trade
James Wylie, John Rimrner and
<Jhas. Doming, who came in from Su
sitna Station, arriving here Sunday
evening, say that there was line winter
weather at the Station when they left
there early in the month. Ihe rivet
was then frozen and there was com
paratively little snow. The Merritt
partv were preparing to start up the
river for Valdez creek, and were hav
iij,r their horses shot! for that purpose.
The coming on of soft weather may
have caused litem to change their
plans.
Mr. Denting says that parts of the
new trail between Girdwood and In
dian creek have suffered slightly from
the rain and snow slides, but that the
trail is a good one. In coining in they
came around on the other side of tlie
arm, hut if the mild weather continues
they plan to go to Sunrise and cross
the arm in a bout.
A good many miners and prospect
ors are now at the Station preparing
to go over the trail to \ aide/ creek
and other mining camps as ?oon as the
trails are securely frozen.
Coal is being mined at Susitna Sta
tion this winter for home consumption.
About three tons a day are being taken
out which is proving to be an excel
lent fuel.
The Station is quite a lively place
this winter and the Alaska Commer
cial Company is doing a good business.
