FIFTEEN THOUSAND
PERSONS BUY TICKETS
FOR ALASKA PORTS.
SEATTLE, August 3.—Approxi
mately 15,000 persons purchased tick
ets in Seattle for Alaska during the
four month period of April, May,
June and July, according to statistics
compiled by the Railway and Marine
News. The statistics include the
Nome movement. The record is said
to be the greatest for any four
months’ period in the history of the
Northern traffic. The rush to Anchor
age and to Seward and the influx of
pleasure seekers from Eastern and
Central West States proved a mater
ial factor in swelling the figures.
Excluding Nome, St. Michael and
Skagway, which always experience a
! rush in connection with the eai ly
June sailings, the bulk of the traffic
was to Anchorage, Seward, Juneau
and Ketchikan. As an equal number
of passengers will return from the
North in the autumn, a banner record
is predicted for the calendar year.
During the entire year of UHL ap
proximately 30,000 persons were tick
eted for the North. The four month:
period ending July 31, last, according
ly, equalled 50 per cent, of the entire
movement of 1914.
HUGE WOOD PILE BURNS

DAWSON.—A telephone message
received from Bonanza creek stated
that the big pile of wood which the
Yukon Gold company had on claim 4>,
Bonanza, near Hague’s roadhouse,
caught fire, and will be a total los.>.
A high wind was blowing, with pract
ically no means of fighting the tire.

A small house from one of the pump
ing plants was put into commission
but was ineffective.
At the time of going to press the
fire was still under way, but it wa
understood, there was little* that could
be done to save any of the wood.
The wood is understood to aggre
gate about .‘>,500 cords, and to bo
worth fully $45,000.
