London, May 31. Fifteen thousand Klondykers, including many women, are encamped between Lakes Landernaan and Tagish.
Reports from Dawson City state that the spring washings-up have yielded satisfactory results.
San Francisco, June 2.
The schooner Lady Jane' Grey, bound from Seattle to Kotzebuc Sound, foundered. Thirty-four persons on their way to Klondyke were drowned.
It is feared by his relatives (says the Tapamii Courier) that Mr William M'Cormnck was one of the victims of the avalanche that fell in the White Pass on the route to the Klondjke goldfield lately. No letters have been received from him since that disaster, and he intended crossing about the time of the accident.
