The Steamer Queen Bring« Word From Viotoira, Aug. 19.—The steamer Queen arrived late tonight from the north. According to Purser Carroll, very few of the 1,500 men now camped at Skaguay and Dyea will get over the pass this winter. Men started to build a new trail, but found that it would take 300 men three weeks, and abandoned the idea. Prob ably 300 men will get across in time to start down the river. A committee of 25 has been appointed to keep order at Skaguay, J. McKinney, of Seattle, lieing elected chairman, and W. J. Sapparatas, of New York, secre tary. Everything is orderly, and men in good health. On August 7, the high tide drove many campers back from the beach. There is a good road five miles from the bay, and goods can b« hauled in by wagon that distance. After that the trail is bad. Men are locating lota at Skaguay,fone lieing sold for $590. Most of the men are preparing to winter at Skaguay. A packer from Portland lost eight horses and packs. They fell down a cliff 70 feet, the packer narrowly es caping. The report that the steamer Danube, from this port, was seized at Dyea is denied by the officers of the Qimen. Men who arrived from the North to night state that, although the Chilkoot trail is the best one, miners are cen tering at Skaguay. Goods can be hauled over a large part of the Chil koot trail in wagons, and most of the rest of the way on pack-horses. About two miles over the summit men have to carry their goods. The White pass trail is very bad and horses have to be killed daily. About two miles of the trail is corduroyed, hut still a large portion of it is boggy. A few men are getting through, but very slowly, horses being scarce, com pared with the number of men there. HAVE !
