that this will result in encouraging j
those who are trying to develop the j
ucner&l properties in the Skagway
valley and the territory adjacent to
it. The different claim owners have
had hundreds of assay reports show- 1
mg good values, but thus far have i
not succeeded in interesting capital !
of sufficient extent to develop one ;

QUARANTINE
SITUATION
(By Alaska News Bureau.)
WASHINGTON, P. C.. June 26?
( lovcrnor Walter K. Clark has appeal
ed to the federal government for aid
in preventing the epidemic of small
pox. which Is prevalent in Dawson,
from spreading into American terri
tory. He asks that health officers be
appointed for the purpose of estab
lishing quarantines at Skagway and
at Ragle.
The above dispatch is from the as
sociated press reports as received
through the Alaska News Bureau.
The Dfcily Alaskan doubting the
accuracy of the report, cabled to Ju
neau for confirmation and has re
ceived the following interview with
Oovernor Chirk by return cable:
Juneau. Alaska. June 26
l>aily Alaskan, Skagway.
Clover nor Clark authorired the fol
lowing statement today. "No quar
antine against Dawson has been es
tablished at Skagway so far as 1 am
aware, but the matter of affording
adequate protection against the spread
of smallpox into American territory
south of Dawson is a question to be
determined. The United States army
surgeon at Fort Kgbert has been ap
pointed under the public health and
marine hospital service to maintain
a strict quarantine at Eagle, but the
information which reaches this office
is that this quarantine does not af
fect through passengers going down
the Yukon provided they are trans
! Terra! from ste?mer to steamer at
a point in the river well removed
i from the town of Dawson."
