THE KEY
j the promoter told me, and it is de
l \ outly to be hoped that they will lo
cate what they are looking for. f'm
the sake of old Nome.
“There was a large trade osud
lished last summer with Siberia, an
it kept the merchants hustling to
get goods to supply the demands. A
lot of fur also came over.
Charles Kennedy. Ciunnnr Kans
an and E. R. Jordan, United State.,
marshal, have a lease on the Bear
Cub, the property that Captain Ca?*1 •
son made his money on. It was
thought that the property had neon
worked out, but the lessees reached
bedrock yesterday and discovered »
Christmas present in the foim of dirt
that pans from $2 to $5. The pay
dirt ranges in depth from six in
to a foot, just above bedrock.
“Coal is $40 a ton this winter ard
oil $10 a drum— too high for mininr.
In fact, the cost of provisions and
fuel has practically put the minin;
game on the blink and, as a conse-'
nuance there is very little work doing
tins winter. Tilings are exceedingly
fpiiot, with very little doing in a so
cial or business way. Many of the
business interests have either com
binod or sold out entirely.”
