8 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1897. N0 FRESH MEAT FOR DAWSONITES The Bark Colorado Ex- pedition Ready to Turn Back. CATTLE DIE ON THE VESSEL. Compelled to Put Into Port, the Leaders Become Discouraged. PROBABLE COLLAPSE OF THEIR PROJECT. Had Intended to Give Klondlkers a H gh-Priced Christmas Dinner. Special Dispatch 1o THE CaLL. PORT TOWNS D, Oct. 30.—The barg Colorado Expedition, which put into Port Townsend harbor last night in distress, is still here and there is serious talk among those on board of abandoning the voyage until spring. This is the most important and expensive exredition that has yet art*d for the Kiondike, and rerresents an expenditure of about $10),0(0. The vrincipal backer of the expedition is Pierre Humbert Jr. of Boston. The outfit con- sists of 340 horses, ninety head of cattle, 125 to of ground feed, twenty-five tons of hay, 125 tons of food and provisions, ninety dogs, sled s and pack saddles for all the horses. Bixty men are on board to care for the animals. The intention was to tow the bark to ‘Wrangel where the stock and outfits would be started for the Klondike over the Daiton trail, its backers hoping to get to Dawson by Christmas. The horses were not ex- pected to live through the entire trip, but it was boped that thecattleand dog-trains would lana the 125 tons of provisions Dawson all right, and the promoters of the expedition believed they would make a tortune from the sale of suppiies to starving miners on the Upper Y ukon. Shortly after leaving Seatile yesterday morning in tow of the tug Pioneer it was found that the cattle in tne lower hold aft of the bark were without proper ventila- tion, and when 1he vessel put in here last night the temperature was 120 degrees in that part of ihe ship, where nearly 150 animals were packed. Four of them had smothered to deatn, and it was decided to proceed no further until different arrance- ments could be made about transporting the stock. This morning the Colorado docked at the wharf Lere, and the animals were taken a-hore. Three more had aied, ana all the others had lost weight during the night. Those in charge of the expedition are to-day very much discouraged over the ook, and sowe of ihem are ready to ackuowledge that it is already a failure. The fate of the Thorp party, which made a failure of the at'empt to get through the §10W over the Dalton trail a few weeks azo and lost $30,000 on the trip, is begin- ning to impress itself on ihe minds of the P.erre Humbert leaders, and they are now ready to turn bac - FOR DAWSON, FPHOFVISIONS Siz Hundred Zons to Ke Transported by Dog Sleds.
