Fail to Reach Yukon Reports on Trails to Alaska
Discouraging reports from the Alaska overland routes as about 60 hopefuls abandon the attempt from Dyea and Skaguay to the Yukon. Fewer than 1,000 of 7,000 would-be migrants succeeded, with hostile conditions and rising costs. A New York pressbacker aids efforts to improve the trail while warning the Skaguay route may never be practical. A Copper River expedition sails from Port Townsend to reach the gold fields, with a two year partnership and armed miners for protection.
