Steamer Activity and Mining Outlook Near Alaska Ports
Reports show the Dora had an unusually calm westward voyage and arrived last week, Bertha brought thirty passengers and cargo to Seldouia, and Excelsior returned to Seattle with a small cargo and fifteen passengers. Santa Clara reached Valdez yesterday and sails today at 6 00 am. A mining man notes 100 dredges would take 100 years to map Fortymile’s limits while the interior secretary withdraws 6,000,000 acres of workable coal lands. Two passes via Yentna and Skwentna routes offer access to the central range. Upper Kuskokwim feeds Seward and provides shorter access from this direction.
