ONE WAY our
lelegrams Cm Now Get to
Seattle
The Skagway people can coogratn
late their frieuds io Seattle, or send
them messages of any kind over the
wire at ?M.iio per congratulation or
per message. That is the toll on a 10
word mess <;?e by way of Whitehrose.
Dawson, Kagle and Valdez to Seattle.
This is tb only telegraph route that
is open at the present time. The
Dominion wire is down south of At lib
and the cable between Skagway and
Juueau is still out of commission.
A dispat.'h from Skagway to Seattle j
would have to pass over the White j
Pass wire to Whiteho ?e, thence over
the Dominion wire through Dawson to
fioundarv. near Eagle, thence over the
military land wires to Valdez, thence
to Seaitle by the long ocean cable.
It is cot necessary to say that very
fow messages are being sent from
Skagway

of the ro.. ?? this morning. I: oa-sed
