Ts a Fortland-Juneau Enterprise Will Be Able to Carry the Outfits ot 80,000 Miners a Month. Portland. Or., Oct. 4.V-Ample fa cilities for the transportation of freight and passengers over Chilkoot pass will V.a TnrrtviHarl Tiv ft 5 Pnrtlflnd-JnnAau are MOIiey-back, -company, in time for the rush to the - Yrjknn next season. ' Artioles incorporating the Dyea-Klon- dike Transportation Company were filed here. The objects of the corpora tion are announced as follows: ., "... "To conduct a general transportation business from the headwaters of Lynn canal, Alaska, too all points in Alaska, and in British North America, and to oarry freight and passengers. , To acquire, build, locate and oper ate tramways, , bridges, wagon roads, sawmills, etc.; to navigate the Yukon river' and its tributaries from St. Mi- ohaels to Dawson City, and to purchase,' build and operate all manner of vessels between Portland, Seattle, Tacoma, Ju neau, Dyea, Skaguay and St. Michaels. Capital stock, $250,000." . ' ' Although the announcement 01 od- jects is made to cover a wide field, the company's present attention is directed solely to providing means for the trans fer of Klondikers and their outnts over the most difficult portion of their jour ney, which is from the steamer at Dyea, over the pass to Lake Linde mann, Construction is already begun, , a wharf being well under way at Dyea, and the work of putting up a 5,000-foot cable tramway at the pass itself being started. The company announces that it will be, ready for business by Feb ruary 1, by which 'time it will be in shape to handle, if necessary, tne out fits of 20,000 people a month, doing the work at a reasonable figure. Members of the company make the following statement: The trip from Dyea to Lake Jjinae- mann has been made by a man with an ordinary outfit, amply provided, with packers. We do not propose to lessen this .time very much, but, we do pro pose to take over a very much larger tonnage than could ; otherwise be taken in the same time.' When finished,' our cable tramway; which- will be quite similar to those used at some of the big mines on mountain sides, will ex tend from Slieep Camp to the summit, cutting off a distance of four miles as at present traveled. "Our immediate attention, however, will be directed to the most diffioult part of the ascent, a stretch of about 5,000 feet, over which we shall be ready to operate by Feb rnary 1. ' We shall use the water fall of the Dyea river' to convey electrio power to our plant. '. '. ' , , ' "Though the short period that is al lowed .our company for preparation gives us .time only to .overcome the worst difficulty of the trip, yet we have, ample means to do more as maybe justified.; by the progress of business. When this route is open it will be pos sible for any number of people to go from here to Dawson with their outfits at less than half the cost of the trip via St. Michaels, without an outfit, at the same time saving 20 days. ....' VFrom Portland to Dawson via Chil koot Pass the distance is only 1,700 miles; via St. Michaels it is 3,700 miles. It takes five weeks at least to make the trip via - St Michaels, and not. over 15 days is required by the pass when the lakes and rivers are open. Another important saving pf time is in the fact that one can get over the Chilkoot and land supplies at Dawson two months before the first steamer gets up the Yukon from St. Michaels.which is usually not before the , middle of July. The St. Michaels route is open but four months of the year, while the Chilkoot will practioally be open all the year around when our line is com pleted. We do not advise the trip be ing made before February, however. ', "One of the delays heretofore encoun tered in the overland trip is the neces sity of building boats at the lake. : Ten days 'is -usually required for this, though it was much longer this year, owing to the rush, and the price was prohibitive to a great flumber of travel ers. v This company will be Uble either to furnish boats, or lumber for them, or it will transport to .the,, summit any 'knocked-down? boats included in, the miners' outfits. ' It' has' never been pos sible heretofore to take a boat over the pass, except by piecemeal, which don't pay. "A most important part of the work we are doing is ..the, construction of a wharf at DveaV It will' have 200 feet Downing, Hopkins St Company's Review of Trade. . We have had something of a slump in wheat since we wrote you last, due to several causes, chief among which being the yellow fever scare, a decided slackening of speculation, and increased receipts from both winter and spring wheat sections." News, however, could not in any manner be construed as bearish, and had not the bulls taken fright so easily and dumped their hold ings on a narrow market, we should have seen an advance instead of a de cline. Foreigners have been good buyers again on the decline, and , could our people get rid of the idea that wheat is high, and inaugurate a buying movement, we should see a sharp and rapid adavnee. . ; Exports have been large, amounting to 5,623,000 bushels for the week. ... The world's shipments amounted to 9,600,000 bushels, while our visible supply increased 2,403,000 bushels. The English visible also in creased 126,000 for the week. Our vis ible supply is now 19,000,000 bushels, against nearly 50,000,000 a year ago, while our exports are nearly 2,0000,000 bushels month. Take these facts into consideration, and note also that France will have to import at least 80,000,000 bushels, Russia's exportable surplus on, the present crop is estimated at only 60,000,000 bushels, or less than half of last vear. , : i We have had a rather featureless market in corn, and values have ruled rather dull and lifeless within a narrow range of price. Receipts of corn are large, with a good demand. Ex'ports continue to be heavy, the clearances for the past week aggregating 5,623,000 bushels, the low- price proving to be quite attractive to foreign importers. The visible increaseed 1,860,000 bush els for the week. ' Provisions have not escaped the gen eral dullness that has prevailed and the market is very quiet, but has a firm undertone that needs only a fair buying movement to develop into a bull mar ket. Receipts of hogs are somewhat larger than estimated and of good qual ity. There is a good demand from abroad for cured meats and lard, and this will probably increase . heavily as soon as cold weather sets in. Inroads of German Trade. France imnorted $6,000,000 worth of jewelry from Germany last year; This fact has caused consternation among the large jewelry manufacturers in the former country. The German articles are nearly all of a cheap variety, and a large proportion of the jewels wnicn thpv contain are imitation. It is rath er striking to see the Germans cutting into a branch of trade in wnicn me French have always been easily first. French exports of jewelry and watches continue to be very important, in me Far East, China and India the French have almost entire control of the watch and jewelry trade. the bikes.
