[Special Dispatch to Daily Alaskan.]
Chicago, Oct 16? Officials of the Chi

They say the former denial was made
because the announcement was prema
ture and that to have permitted it to
st&Dd would have done harm. Bonds to
the amount of 825,000,000 have been
issued and there is no longer any good
purpose to be served by keeping the in

ICE IS RIMING IN IfftR
mm river
Harbinger of Winter Appears At Ogilvie
Selwin and Pelly Riyer? River May
Not Close For Many Days
For the first time this season ice isj
running' in the Yukon river above
Dawson. The reports from down the
stream this morning brine the news
that this harbioger of the end of river ,
navigation has made its appearance at j
Ogilvie and Selwyn and that it was also j
flowing freely from the Pelly river i
While floating ice is an indication
that winter is drawing near.it is not by
any means certain that the river will
close for 10 days or two weeks, and it
might last longer than that. There is
little doubt but that all the steamers
that are out on the river will reach
their destinations.
