Show KLONDIKE COLD. Another Treasure Ship Arrlres at Seattle From Alaska. Seattle, June 25. The second big lot of returning Klondikers since navigation naviga-tion opened, reached here on the steamer Humboldt. There were about 250 of them, and a few of them brought considerable gold dust. Others were reported to have drafts for large amounts, while others came home without riches. No accurate estimate of the amount of gold dust can be made, for the reason rea-son that the figures given by the deferent de-ferent passengers vary widely, ranging all the way from $250,000 to 5500,000. Still more diverging are the cot-jec-tures as to the amount of drafts. Including In-cluding dr.-wfts and dust, the estimates range from 8500,000 to SI .250,000, Purser Pur-ser Carroll claims that he had in his custody 8280,000 in dust, and estimates that there was about S.'iOO.OOO more in the different staterooms not turned over t him. |
