The steamer Yukon arrived in
port at an early hour this morning
on the second voyage of the season
from the upper Yukon, having sailed
from Dawson on July 7. The
steamer brought a considerable num
ber of passengers, mostly tourists,
and had two barges in tow to Xe
nana. The steamer arrived about
eight o’clock and sailed for Fair
banks shortly before noon.
It was reported from Fairbanks
I yesterday that the Yukon might not
! attempt the voyage up river, beyond
iXenana, but upon arrival here it
Iwas found that a large part of the
j freight was consigned to the upper
I town—sufficient to warrant the ad
ditional voyage, especially in view
I of the fact that there is ample
j water in Chena slough at present
;to enable steamers to reach the
i upper town without difficulty.
; A number of the tourists on
(board the Yukon, it is understood,
'will leave the steamer at Fairbanks
and return to the coast by way of
the Richardson trail.

For Xenana: E. R. Albertson, Hel
