AFTER WATER
Mauy KlondikersHave Ditch
Schemes
If but one quarter of the projected
schemes to supply the shortage of water
in the Klondike are successful, that
vrry cece>sarv article to the placer
mines will be available in abundance,
Otto R Brenner Is now heading for
London to interest capieal in a $4,000,
000 water scheme and this ccmpany
hopes to secure 20,000 inches from
the north fork of the Klondike river,
which will be piped to the various
creeks and disposed of to the individual
miner at reasonable rates. Mr. Brenner
was one of the forces in floating the
big company now known as the Can
adian Klondike M.ning Co. The suc
cess of th's company, which operated
last season o e of the largest dredges
in the world, is well known to the gen
eral public.
Associated with Mr. Brenner, Id the
water scheme are such well known
capitalists as, Robert Kelly, wholesale
grocer, of Vancouver; Alfred Hitch
cock, capitalist, London; Alexander
McDonald, Dr. W. T. Barret'; James
McNamee and Russell H. Palmer, all
of Dawson.
Another big scheme is fathered by R.
Auzias-Turreone, French consul *t
Dawson, and M. Falonnav. a French
capitalist, who spent the past season in
the Yukon. M. Turrenne has secured
control of the Fraser Falls water supply
on the Stewart river, and plans to gen
rate a great quantity of electric energy
there by means of the water power,
run the electricity overland from the
falls to the Klondike river near the
Klondike camp, and there operate huge
pumps which will lift enough water to
supply the whole camp through a sys
tem of ditches and flumes. Such an
enterprise will entail the outlay of an
enormous amount of money, but pro
moters feel that advantages to the
miner will warrant the outlay.
It is believed that the report of the
government engineers, appointed early
last spring to gather data as to the most
feasible scheme of putting water on
the creeks at a minimum of cost, will
be ready and submitted to parliament
upon the opening of the housi in Jan
uary next.
