that the party had intended crossing byway of the Chilkat river route, wheret;.ey h*d bs«n I»;d to believe there wasa wagon road. Upon landing their goods,T-% horses and lad head of cattle, theyfound their movements blocked by theentire absence of any trail or routewhatever. They th*n determined toawait the freeing up of the river andproceed, a.s had b«aa tirat intended, usingthe ice as a traiL The unusually largeretinue of helpers ar.d employes wa» re-duced to sixty, and th-se men are divid-ed into two c*mps. one b*-|i.g eight m. -sand the other twenty-two msles up theriver. Beyond the fact that their In-formation aa to a trail was wrong, theyexperienced no disappointment, andfounrt things even better than they }.a dexpected. The entire expedition is ingood phape. ar.d but eight horses hav«b n lost by the u. ua! casuaities and ae-c.d»*nta.
The season Is a very backward on?,and Mr. Smith says th« temperature Isfts mild as in Seattle. The rivers usuallyfreeze in December, but thus far therehas b*en hut one time when thewas frozen enough to permit its use.Then the thermometer fell to degreesl>eiow z«ro. The exp*-dltlon moved a£r* at of its stock and suppii- s upthe river to the place of the secondcamp?twenty-two miles. Between thesecond camp and the summit there arethirteen crossings, all running like millraces Along the edges the ice hasformed in places a foot thick, but theopen space varies from ton to twentyf« er In width, positively unfordable. Mr.Smith. I*r. Crook and Mr. Rus-cil willleave for San Francisco today and re-turn in a woek or ten days. They v. 11then go directly north, expecting that thetour a< ross the snow fit-ids may be tak\u25a0-nup again without interruption. "We rx-f?< t«d to fr»»e«e to d*ath.

It Is very mild th*re. or was wh. nwh n we bft. acd the rivers and stream-were swollen from rains and thaws.There Is nothing farther to say. exceptthat We are waiting for the ice to formin the river."
