My parents did not Jeave their photographs with me. There was no street where I livea, the houses being scattered in our village. I have lived in but the one house since I went to China. It will be seen thatall these statements | are d vergent, and in addition to this fact, | the members of the society bave proof | positiva that neither the man nor the | woman claiming to be the father and mother of the girl are related to her. They | say they can also prove that thegirl is to | by placed in a house of evil repute shortly after she is landed.

The Pertha Slips to the North With a Small List of Passengers. MORE LOCAL VESSELS ARE CHARTERED. Five Important Steamers Were En- gaged Yesterday for the Great Yukon Crusade. The brig Willamette backed from Broad- way wharf and began plowing salt water toward Dyea at hali-pasi 6 o’clock lss! evening, and when slie did so one of the remarkable expeditions of the long his- tory of gold-seeking was successfully un- der way. She carried less than ninety Alaska- bound passengers from here—but wait until she gets to Seattle, the great asylum for Klondomania! She will load up to nearly the thousand mark there, where men wait in long lines at ticket offices for a chance to pay their passage money. On Wednesday the collier ceme in with 8000 tons of coal, which: was jerked out of ner in a night. On Thursday morning she was seized by all sorts of workmen, and yesterday she sailed, transformed into a completely supplied troopship, with bunks for nearly a thousand men, with all the facilities for life on shipboard, with tons of food supplies for tne trip, with a Iot of horses, mules and burros, great piles of beggage and 600 tons of freipht. The fitting up and supplying of the steamer cost about $10,000, but then the s coffers will take in ,000 in freizhts and between $40,000 and fares for the one trip. A big crowd watched her preparations all day yesterday and the scene was lively and picturesque, thongh it dia not hold the spirit or the romance or the interest of the Excelsior’s sailing, the other day, when more than 10,000 people cheered that smaller departing craft. The carpen- ters and other journeymen aboard kept busy all day yesterday. On the dock lay about 400 tons of freight, left there by the overcrowded City of Puebla when she sailed the other day. This freigat con- sisted mainly of merchandise for store- keevers of the cities on the sourd and at Juneau, but most of it went to supply the Klondyke rushers, one way or another, and it was an item of San Francisco’s ks f A IS o L - £y~ = Pa R A \J SH B e v AN BT ANSI P § B 5 p-Ny SO 2 16 S 8 BAR D FWANE o ATIO ) - B DR RSN R ‘28 RS = N2 D N: SAN FRANCISCO, 7th Month, 1st Date (July 28, 1897).

By the middle of the day express wag- o ns began bringing baggage for the squad of rushers booked for passage. It doesn't take much experience to spot Klondyke baggage on a wharf, though it is doue up in so many ways, It has a sort of going- out-roughing-it style. They don’t take trunks to Dawson by the Juneau routc. Many carry valises, but the majority take their effects in bags and bunales. Those { who know what they are doing favor long | eylindrical sacks of canvas or stout oil- cloth, eighteen inches in diameter and | four feet long, with stout puckering | sirings -at one end. These may be made practically water proof, and they are ca- pacious and easily packed. An apparent improvement on them appeared yesterday in the shape of big canvas mail bags, with tops thac closed fiat like a mail sack. The bags, bundles of blankets and valises accumulated in piles on the wharf, and then on the decks. A greal many are taking rifles in leather cases. At noon the first squad of donkeys for the steamer arrived. There was a bunch of nine of them—;iunny little beasts—and each was tagged for “‘F. R. Cook, Dyea,” wrilten on the backs of old eiection cards proclaiming the candidacy of T. A. Rot- tanzi and Frank J. Murasky. A few hours later the twenty or so mules and burros that accumulated afforded the one sensa- tion of the duy. Four of these burros carae from the park, where the band hes been muitiplying besyond the needs of the chii¢ren’s play ground, and the little fel- lows will soon be packing 200 or 300-pound loads over the passes beyond Dyea in- stead of packing fond babies around the | lower beds. | There was no difficulty in getting Fed- | eral permission for the Willamette to ru 43 a passenger vessel, as the requiremeunts | | were compliea with, though the 100 cubic feet of air to which each passenger is en- litled was largely in the hatchways and above deck and not wholly about the bunks. Six big boats, four life rafts and -everal hundred life-preservers were husgled on deck during the afterncon. The “cabin” yassengerson the Wilamette have rough, La«tily constructed bunks, which fill the big vacant spaces of the first lower deck in closely set raws and entirely open. There are no staterooms or parti- tions, Three small bunks rise one above another, supported by four posts atthe corners. A hasty coat of red paint covers the rough woodwork, but on each one of the 400 *‘cabin’’ berths isa comfortable | mattress and ciean white !inen and cover- lLide. The open cabin bunks are built around the smokestack, along both sides of the butcher’s long table, and the fellow that has bunk 233 can reach out his hand and start a donkey engine at his side. The steerage passengers have rougher quarters fartber below, in the capacious hold, but no Klondyker is goinz to kick at roughing it a littie in the steamer. Tons of beef in quariers and loads of vegetables and other provisions went aboard with a force of cooks and waiters, and four French ranges wera made fast amidship. And amid and at all this a small army crowded and worked. One of the cooks went to cutting up a quarter of beef on one end of a table that a carpenter was finishing at the other end and men with bedclothes met and jawed rushing cooks with loads in narrow passageways, while carpenters waited for them to get by, By the middie of the afternoon two or three thousand people had gathered to see the departure, whieh was set for4 ». 3. A large force of .police kept the biz coverel wharf pretty clear and there wasa poor chance for .mmu-J. Butat 47 M the reight was not all aboard and 1t was two and a half hours before the vessel got away. About 5 . 3. fun began with the getting abourd of the fifteen donkeys, half dozen mules and the few horses and cayuses that were being taken along by individ- ua's and parties for packing over the passes by men whko saw money in the packing business up there. Each animal bad to be got into a high narrow box with a gate 2t one end, which was hoisted high in the air by a donkey-engine, swunz over the forward and lowered to where the animals were to ride. Not a solitary mule proposed to go into that box, and it took a dozen longshoremen to get each struggling mule in with ropes and clabs, while the crowd cheered each success and donkeys brayed frightfully. Most of the gold-seekers had friends to bid goed-by and the adieus came with oc- casional tears and flowers with the end of the loading operation. Finally at 6:30 p. M., everything was aboard though in dis- order on every deck and the ship was cleared of visitors. There were a few hasty kisses, much shouting of badinage and adieus, the ganeplank was heaved ashore and Captain Holmes gave a whis- tle blast. The big vessel moved out into the bay and rounded with increasing spced toward the Golden Gate cheered again and again by the several hundred on the wharf while the departing crowa cheered in'return. As the Willamette sailed away she had accommodations ready for all on board, but there was a great deal to be done to make ready for the vastly bizgercrowd waiting for her at Seattle, and a force of workmen went along to work away on buanks, etc., during the three days of the journcy to Seattle.

Two Nuns and Four Gamblers Secure Douptful ‘Passage to Dawson. The Alaska Commercial Company’s small bit stanch steamer Bertba sailed irom Howard-street wharf at 8:30 p. M., following the Excelsior to St.°Michaeis. The Berthia was sent up as a freight boat with a late lot of merchandise, whiek will be got up the river 1f possible, and 1t was announced that she would oarry no pas- sengers. Probebly 200 were refused pas- saze at the company’s office, though as little as possible was said about her sail- ing to avoid this annoyance. She took an odd lot of passengers as matters of special favors, however. There were just thirteen of them and among them were two runs and four professional gamblers with full gambling outfits. The two nuns are of the order of Sisters of St. Anne and are from Beaupre, Canada. They are going to Dawson with tbeir blessed minisirations and they intended going on the Excelsior, but Jid not reach here 1u time. . As fellow-passengers they have Billy Kennedy, Dave Argyle, Jim Warner and John Gulliardo, who are going to Dawson with taro layouts, roulette wheels, cards by the yreat gross and a fine outfit gen- erally. Tyey have been associates and em- ployes of Joe Harvey, the well-known and successful proprietor of such enterprises, and it is said that the quartet have been mainly staked and stocked by him. Other passengers for Dawson were Charles Wall and C. O. Bruce, the la:ter being one of Sausalito’s Trustees and a well-known yachtsman. George Luke, Mrs. Mary Thomas, Mrs. Kote M. Fromm and & Mr. White took passage for Unga, and Mrs. W. H. Davis goesto Unalaska. The chances are somewhat against the passengers and freight of the B:rtha get- ting to Dawson this year, but good luck is hoped for, and every effort will be made 1o get through. GRABBING AT ANY CRAFT Many Vessels From This Port Being Pressed Into Service. Steamers Humboldt and Farallon Among Those Chartered Yesterday. With the regular and special sieamers of the Pacific Coast Steamship Company to Juneau and Dyea overwhelmed, and with no further room on the reguiar boats to St. Michaels and up the river, the spe- cial expeditions by both routes are flock- ing to the front daily., Vessels oi all kinds are being chartered at Seattle and Portiand, but more are obtainable here, and these enterprises are most numerous here. In spite of the tremendous risks and slim chances of success several expedi- tions by the Yukon River route are rap- idly developiog. Herriman and Mills planned such an enterprise several days ago, but it was not until vesterday that a vessel was se- cured in the steam schooner National City, which was chartered and taken to the Folsom-street wharf. Sixty people are already booked for the trip, each pay- ing $225 for passage to Dawson, with the priviiege ot 2000 pounds of freight. Steam engines are being put in the launch Heutie B, which will be taken along on deck, An ark of 19 inches draught and 56x16 feet in size is to be taken along in secuons, ready to be put together on the river. The launch will starc up the river with this ark, and if they get stuck and frozen up in the river they will bave the ark and pleaty of pro- visions for the winter. It is planned to leave August 7. The big steamer Progreso is reported to have been finally chartered yesterday for a similar attempt to get a party up the Yukon River this season. will have ready accommodations for 500 steerage and 400 “‘cabin” passengers alto- gether, and these are already sold. Itis reported that-when thedefinite announce- ment of the Willamette's special trip was made in Seattle the crowd that rushed to the ticket office wag so great that it formed in four lines each nearly haif a block long. About 400 tickets were sold as fast as clerks coutd rake in the money and make out the «li and then the agent stopped the sale to find out by wire from here just how many tickeis he could seil. He soon found out, and the list was early closed. Besides the hundreds of passengers to be taken on at Seattle there are over 200 pack animals and much freight to go from there. The Willamette will reach Seattle on Tuesday, and on Wednesday will start on the three days’ trip to Juneau, and thence on to Dyea, to where’ most all of the passengersare bound. Passengersand their ontfits will be lightered ashore, and then they will face the rohghing it over the long ‘and hard journey of 700 miles over the range and on big boats which each man or pariy will bave to build on the lakes, Itis possible that the Willamette wiil make another tripon herreturn (o Seattle. If so it will be Irom that port, and it will depend on the demand for transporta- tion two weeks hence.

The steamer will leave here on the 9ih inst. for St. Michaels via Seattle, and it is planned to take along a stern-wheel steamer in sectious for use on tne river. Max Kalisn, the agent anc part owner of the vessel, will go with her to St. Mi- chaels. A limit of 200 is set for passen- gers.
