gKAGWAY, March JO.—A battle of bul
lets. lo which a victim of the three-shell
|a«ii' engaged seven of the gamblers who
toad gotten hi* money, took plsce out on
the trad yesterday morning. A. though
two or thr*> dost'-n shots were fired, only
two m<n are known to hive been hit.
ahd they were rot seriously wounded.
The battle, however, was one of the live
liest afcooiiag ftcrupea which has taken
place in Aiaska, and it is miraculous
that there wt r- no futilities. Due indig
nant and abused man, who had run up
•gainst the t? itm" and had lost his money,
was Jeered by tbe cappers and dealer#
when ho turiK d to go. He could atand the
loss of his money, but the Jeering was
too much for htm; be turned and knocked
one of tt,. m down. Another gambler en
gaged him awl met with the a-une fate.
,A third wa* ai*«ut to go down under the
doughty fiat of the victim when the
gambler pulled a revolver and flourished
It at tbe man. Thus challenged, the vic
tim himrte'.f drew a small gun and, step
ping badk a few step#, opened up on the
of garablert, and did not atop fir
ing /until he bad emptied his weapon
three times At the Mine time the gam
blers were firing as fa*t as they could
at .the man, who stood out boldly and
Wa a good target. Fifty or more men,
lacking on the trail, witnessed the bat
tle, very unwillingly, for the bullets were
flying In ail dire, flons and maJe U very
to he in the vicinity. As it
was, an lniu> ent packer, sitting an lua
ai'-U up the tra.l, was the oniy man hit
by a bullet, with the exception possibly.
Of one of the gamblers, who la suld to
j- lusve been hit in the hand.
Th(« shooting is graphically described
by Mr. Clem llush<e, who wai on the

I tbofcjrr.t I was all right, but some one

I made a run for the tree*, which I raw

The man in the blue ault. after emptying
hi* revolver orct, reloaded it coolly and
shot another round at the gambler*. This
he did three- rim**. I think thai between
forty and fifty shots must have been ex
changed altogether.
"When the firing ceased, we came out
from our haling and the gamblers. quickly
retreated down the canyon. Tin re were
many in the crowd of spectator* who
w«-re Just on the point of taking a hand
In the battle and helping the lone man
out. If one man on the outside had
opened up with hia revolver, there would
have been no stopping until the entire
le ven men had been wiped out. It was a
very narrow escape for them, I can tell
you. The svmrMthy of the crowd wai
with the lone man, whose bravery wis
wonderful.
"As soon as 1? tai all over there was
talk of lynching the gamblers, and after
aome delay the men resolved to go down
ajid string the fellows up. They got a
rope and started down the canyon, but
when they got to the foot of the canyon,
the gamblers were nowhere to be seen.
They hud made good the»r escape."

The bottom has fatten out of the remark
able stampede to Walsh creek. In- the Big
Salmon district, which commenced four
weeks ago from I«ike Dennett tind Skag
way. Th « slampedc-rs are returning, many
without having reached the alleged |Told (
creek". The latest report* from the In
terior are to the effect that Walsh and
I,ak« creeks arc practically valueieaa and
that the great gold stories were started by
two men In po»:tlon to make money out
of a stampede. Such is the news tiiat
%?s brought down from Skagway yester
day on the steamer Navarro.
The two men who are accused of hav
ing started the stampede by sending out
met* with bags of gold said to have come
from the creek* in question are. according
to Associated Press advices. Cana
dian surveyors. They wer»* on the ground
with th & lr Instruments and mad« a hand
some sum surveying the claims which
havp been staked out for miles on both
sides of Walsh creek. One of them col
bvted a large sum for recording claims,
but it is salt! that he will be complied by
th" higher Canadian officials to return the
money.
The trail from T.ake I>barge to T.ak »
Jtenttett Is said to be thick with stani
peders returning to the caches which they
left in such a hurry that they might get
t!i»'ir stakes on Walsh creek. They claim
that only a few <*olors to the pan (viuld
be secured on discovery claim and that
{hare is no indication that gold will be
found In quantities on any of the other
claims. Many *»f those *ao srakt-d claim*
have moved on without going to the cx

A party of four well-known Skaswsy
ottif iM returned the evening Ik fore the
Navarro left after cha« ng for ten day«

and shot himself dead.
McGreal wa.« an energetic young man
and of ab£ut 2.J years of age He estab

Skagwray and Dyea and was doing so well
that he had saved several hundred <iol

got about s:i# ahead anil then lost as much
of his own money. Finally h* put up $l3O
which belonged to one of his customers
and lost that. His watch and chain fol
lowed.
Crazed with his loeses and ashamed ta
face his friends, he f took a dose of mor

room in tha Palace hotel an-i wrote a let

The steam .»chooner Navarro, Capt. Itig
glns, which arrived here early yesterday
morning: from Skagway. had aa interest
ing passenger, who left the boat at Fort
Wr angel. lie was John Johnson, a full
blooded Wrangel Indian, wlio had just
returned from Dawson with a quantity
of gold dust and several drafts for large
amounts. Johnson is a thoroughly Amer
icanized Indian, having graduated from
tile Carlisle Indian school, and lived for
four years in Philadelphia. He stopped
off at Wrangel to visit relatives. The
Navarro also brings the n«-ws of a reporad
gold discovery on the Dye a river near
Canyon City. The tind is said to b<;
causing considerable excitement, and al
ready all of the cretk has been staked off
ir. claims.
The Navarro's Indian Klondiker left
Dawson early in March and made a
quick trip to Dyea, coming up the river
alone with a single team of dogs. John
son talked some with Purser Ketchum.
who had charge of his gold dust between
Skagway and Wrangel. The Indian
claimed to have one clam of his own and
an interest In three others in the Klon
dike region. He had only been in the
interior a year, having come out frona
the East to go lo Alaska. Ketchum says
that Johnson is well educated and writes
and :alks English as fluently as an edit
on ted white man. He has almost forgot
ten his own languagee, not having lived
at Wrangel Tor elf \en years. Johnson
told Ketchum that there were a num
ber of Indian and half-breed claim own
ers in the Klondike. lie said that most
of them liked liquor too well to save any
money, and that their claims were rap
idly passing out of their hands, because
they disliked to work.
According to reports brought by the
Navarro from l>y<a. the gold strike near
the head of the Dyea river promises to
b- of cansid* table importance. It is re
ported that as hish as ft) cents to the
pan has been taken out a few feet be
low the surface. Bedrock has not been
retched yet. Th ( .strike is near Canyon
t'ity, and evfry foot of ground that seems
ar all lik» ly to bear gold has b< n staked
out.
The postoffioo service at Sk.igw.iy and
I»y>.i is still the cause of considerable
complaint. After a steamer arriv s with
a H? liatc h of mail it is usually two days
h<-:'o:.> it in distributed in the offi-•», Then
it t ike? two days more to hand it out to
t!i • inejn ul o line up In front of the deliv
er\ w'mlow. Several outride parties have
established delivery routes. They charge,
tt is said. 25 cents a week for the service.
f*v .■•rtße HTansjenient with the post office
off:. N th-y get their mail before any
on'' else, and the subs»ophers derive the
benefit. Small boys at Siting way are mak
ing wm- money out of the inability ni the
postoffire to handle the m&ils. They get
in I me. and a.s soon as they get rear the
window offer to sell out fnr 15 or 25 cents.
The Fnited States troops have been call
ed on .«■•*■« ral times to
distributing mall, but without experience
they ;irc aJ-!e to help but little. Skagway
p. ( >|i look f r better service when Spe
e:.»i Inspect jr Clum makes his report.
A number of the steamers or. the Alas
kan run h.ive . l*»en cutting rates from
Skaway to Seattle. Secund-eiass fares are
as low as JlO on some boats, and tirst-ohss
passage I* given fnr S2O. The larger com
panics have not yet begun to cut. The
Nivsrro brought down eighty-five pas
sengers, most of whom are coming out for
a short visit or more supplies. S»%eral of
the passengers wore sick and have given
up llm attempt to reach the interior.' The
