When we left Victoria there were 104 passen gers on board, 25 of whom were from the steamers Eugene and Bristol. Reach ing Fort Wrangle some of the passengers left the steamer to take the Stickeen route ; others left at Juneau for the Takn route, and there are only five besides myself who are still on the s'eamer bound for Skaguay, of the Bristol crowd and some 50 others from all parts of the United Statei, bound for Yukon over the Chilcoot and White passes. "While stopping at Juneau this morn ing we had two hours to spare and in looking over the town we met R. G. Case and Mr. Campbell, formerly of Oregon City. They are doing well and Alaska's climate seems to agree with then." Mr. Schuabauer and myself are feeling well and will not be the last ones over the pass if there is any posiible chance of getting over this fall. Kind regards to all my friends.
