Neil M’Nab, wearing a mosquito
net as protection against the pests
of the North, was an arrival on the
Nokatak from Dime creek. He has
been sojourning there quite a while
but has not made up hi3 mind
whether or not to return. There i„
very little work now in Dime
creek. A small crew is being era
ployed by Olson in ditch construe
tion and that is about all. Carl
Rylander lias finished up his drift- '
ing and hoisting. It was reported
that he had run out of pay,, for
there as elsewhere the creek i,
spotted There was little doing
cutting wood as the mosquitoes
barred any from doing much among j
the timber. There would be re- r
newed activity later on and mean- j
time the summer work would be
abandoned for winter hoisting.
The wood shortage had by no
means in any way been relieved.
For the first time in many j
years there has been absolutely no
trading with the Siberian natives
this year Not one boat has been
outfitted to start on such a trip.
The merchants and others appear
to be uneasy lest the unsettled state
of thing anticipated over there
might r suit in the confiscation of
the ship and its trading cargo as
happened to the Diamond L some
time agi There ih hardly any such
danger and it was stated here on
authorit> that any person who got
a licens' from the Russian revenue
cutter there could trade to his
heart's content along the Siberian
coast. There is one outfit here
which arrived from the outside and
which made inquiries looking to
wards sc. tiring a schooner or other
boat to take three men and pros
pecting equipment over to Siberia.
This expedition was being equipped
and financed by a Californian fin
ancier but whether he made con
nections with a shipping man will
ing to take over the party is not
known. As far as can be known
he did not. Moreover it is not
known by what right any American
can go to Anadir and prospect or
whether the older system which was
in vogue under the empire still pre
vails under the republic. There is
very considerable wealth in the tri
butanes of Anadir, a short distance
tip this great navigable stream is
a bountiful supply of coal and
many of the creeks have already
been pro\ed to be rich, quite a
large quantity having actually been
taken out of there, it would thus
seem that all that is needed is for
the Siberian authorities to give the
word and there will be brand new
town springing up in Anadir Hay
where Knglish will be the predo
minant language and \meri-ans the
principle race of peoph who will
settle there. If tile Chamber of
Commerce only knew it. by secur
ing from Petrograd the proper
forms for staking and settling on
ground in Siberia they could start
old Nome booming this fall as the
supply point of a stampede such
as lias never been before in all its
history. As it is, it is understood
quite it number atv now seeking
information for then.selves on this
hea d.
