Still Not Water Enough
The P. C. SS City of Seattle landed
203 passengers In this already crowded
town this morning and the train over
the hill took away just 55. The inter
est therefore increases. Every re
source for caring for the congestion is
being employed. There aro several
gangs of men going in together? men
in the employ of the Guggenhelms are
here about 300 in numb?r, who are
being housed in various ways whereby
they nre made comfortable and they
are apparently enjoying the visit to the
town. Monte Snow has the contract
for providing for these in the matter of
meals wnich he is doing at quarters on
Fourth avenue. There are also several
other parties. Some 20 are going in
with Superintendent Fairbanks, of the
N. C. company to work in various
capacitin. Then there are the signal
corps men going la to install various
wireless stations. There sre many
women and a bevy of children in the
throng of sojourners.
The town It) crowded to be sure, but
the hotels sod restaurants are, for the
most part, taking good care of the aur
plus, so that there is no complaint or
reason for it. Furthermore thare has
been no instance of the crowd being1
taken advantage of In the matter of
prlcea. The hotel rates of a month ago
are the hotel rates of today and restau
rants and merchanta 'are maintaining
regulation prices in all things. This
fact has been the subject of pleased
comment by many sojourners.
Mr. Fairbanks, speaking of the likeli
hood of the crowd being released in a
few days, stated that he had the record
of the river since the beginning of
operations of the old A. C. company
and so far as be remembered thla record
showed no later date for the opening of
navigation than June 13th. He expect
ed to see the boats running next Mon
day. The river ahows 11 inchea at
Whltehorse above low water, and 24
inches aro necessary' The Whitehorse
