MAJORITY OF THEM FLY AMERICAN FLAGS Olnrr Ship * Will Me > > rilcil I.ntcr Cn- tii Cnrry 1-1,500 In Hot ISnoiiuli uml TOIIIIIIUC. PORTLAND , Ore. , Jan. 19. ( Special. ) A fleet of forty-three utoamshlps la already en gaged In or reported under engagement for the Alaska trade out of northwestern ports. The total uet tonnage of this big fleet la 41,612 , nnd the estimated carrying capacity at least 14,500 passengers. ( Eighteen of these uteamors , with , a total registered tonnage of 18,041 , and with accommodations for 0,500 passengers , nro under the ( British flag , land the other twenty-five , with a total net ton nage of 22,871 and accommodations for 8,000 passengers , will fly the American flag , Indi cating that , when the number of ports Is con- lacro < l , the Canadians are a llttlo better equipped for business than the Americans. At first glance , It would seem that the , transportation business wns in ! a fair way to bo overdone , but If the Klondike business cornea up to the expectations of even the conservative railroad and steamship men , In- Btead of being too many boats there will not bo enough to 1iandlo > the crowds when the rush Is nt Its height. The number of people ple who are regarded as "booked" for this migration Is variously estimated nt from 100,000 to 300,000 , ami ilf the rush Is proportionately tionately as great as that of the IS 19 gold ex citement , the latter figure Is not far out of the way. Reducing that to 150,000 , wlilch Is the flguro generally estimated by tbo con servatives , and It will bo seen that a.blockade . Is almost Inevitable , unless moro Hteamcrs can bo secured. Seme of the licet enumer- fltcd below are fast and some of them slow , but , taking the average right through the list , and allowing for delays and occasional lay-overs for repairs , and about two round trips per month la the best they will do. This would cnablo them to transport 30,000 passengers per month. SLOW IN GUTTING STARTED.

As It will itax the steamers herowltn mentioned to their limits to move three people by July 15 , It will bo seen that not mc > ro than half of the crowd can icach 'the ' mines as early as they would like to , and iihcro will need Ho bo le.-s ixissengors or moro steamers than is now figured on. or Oregon.

Harvey Wlllla of Perry , la. , was one of the thousands who went to California nearly fifty years ago to scok a , fortune atid found ono by returning to .tho agricultural states of the Mississippi valley. The Perry Chief bis an extended biography of the nun , from which the following Is taken : Hoclo HOTVQV was born nearly G7 years ago , on thu ICth day of April , 1331 , InVajcio county , Indiana , of Quaker turentagc , to which may bo duo the modest rctlccnco and Rolf-depreciation with which ho opcaks of himself. Until his 19th year ho { served an apprenticeship on his father's form , and 1n a woolen mill , very llttlo occurring to m-ir the Inonotcay of the young man's life. At about this period , 1S30 , the gold excitement broke out In California and tMe ringing newu that Sutler n.nd . Mar shall had struck It rich on the north ur American stdo of the Sacramento river ar rested the c.ci.scrvatlve , Industrious , plodding east and farmers left thcli * plows , artisans their tools , lawyers their brleto , doctors their ixitlcnts , preachers their uulplts , all to make a rush for the now Kldorado. Young Wills , then just turning his 19th year , was among the IIret In his section to catch Wo fever , and on tJio 1st day of April , 1S50 , with a single companion , he started for the far away gold fields. The two boys made their vay to Cincinnati , thence by boat to Cairo , 111. , where they i'cshlped to St. Joe , on the Missouri , the trip taking them a week. ' Hero they remained until the 20th of th'e mciith outfitting for the long tr'o ucmis the plains. Forming a copartnership with six others aa adventurous as himself , Undo Harvey Invested the money at his command In six yokes of oxui and two wagons leaded with provisions and s'jrplles. and just as the gram began to look green , with faces toward the setting sun , commenced their -,000-mUo tiamp. ACUOSS THE PLAINS. The 'trip ' across .ho r-'alns ' an 1 mcuutalna was full of hardships and Incidents. Min > \\andorlng bands of Indians were encoun tered , and Undo Harvey tells of many nar row escapes he luid from being scalped. He walked almost the entire distance from St. Joe to Sacramento , and it tlmos ho would wander away from the train live and six miles , and more than once came ncrcc-j Indian camps that ho was compelled to go away from walking backwards. It was along In September when the little baud , footsore and weary , but full cf zeal and hope , halted their oxen In the mining camp of Hangtown on the American river. In a few days wagons and oxen were sold , anil after a short pleasure tramp down Sacra mento \\ay , about 100 miles nouth. Undo llarvo returned to Hangtown and commenced placer mining In company with a capitalist who had taken a fancy to him. Undo Harvo was to look after the camp and do the cooklnt ; as his share of the work aiJ receive u third Interest. At the expiration of eleven months ho was taken 111 , the re sult of exposure , and was told by a doctor that ho must get out of the mountains or ho would ille. In 'tho ' settlement ho re ceived about ? 2.000 for his ahiro , with which amount ho went down to San Francisco , In tending to remain until ho got well and then return to the mines , whoie his Interests would pay him at least $18 psr day. But finding expenses so high down on the "Golo > n Gate , " after a stay of ton wccls ho determined to como back home. So alone the latter part of August , 1S51. he took passage on board the steamship Oregon for Panama , paying $300 ( or the ticket. The trip Uncle Harvo describes a * the loncsomest ot hla life , firai San 1-rnn o to Acupulej , Mexico. Leaving the O. < .an. hero came a tramp of ipo miles down the Isthmus to a Spanish town and across to Chagros or Aj > - plnwall. ON THE ISTHMUS. The walk acrccas the Isthmus was a momentous one , the trail led through tropi cal underbrush required three dajo , dur ing which time the only perscna met were natives , very few of whom could speak any ITngllhs. At Ctagres , Uncle Harvo witnessed hs ! first prize fight , eeelng Chris Lilly , the recognized champion of that fray , soundly drubbed by a green swwky Ohio river boat- msn named Taylor , who was returning home from the rnlnca. Hero he took a mall steamer for New York City , the passage costIng - Ing him $150 , and requiring two weeks time. He landed with $1,200 , but ho didn't leave the great city with that much , for despite the experience lie had undergone , Uncle Harve waa stllll young not only In years but In the wajB of the world , and just after landing fell Into the hands of the human horplei which even In that early day Infested the docks amd lay In wait for the return Ins miner , and was buncoed out of about $ GOO of his hard earned dollaw. His money waa all la gold dust , and as his beat lauded on Sunday , the tanks were all closed. Wish- tag to take a boat up the Hudson enroute homo at once , and fearful that ho would not be able to exchange his dust for anoney should ho wait till ho reached homo , ho In stituted an Inquiry as to where he could sell. Ho was directed to a place In a dirty dingy basement , where he fouad two men who offered him $2 more per ounce- than the market price , end of course ho determined to sell. Ho unbuckled the belt In which ho carried his wealth , from about his waist , and emptied the contents Into the scales they provided ; they gave the weight to pen nyweight , and while Uncle Harvo was figur ing the total , ono of them emptied the scales Into a largo vessel In which there was a quantity of dust , and when ho discovered that they had only given him weight for cue- half of what ho had actually had It wa too 'Mo. He had no witnesses to the tran saction and so waa forced to take ? COO for a good $1,200 worth of dust , COMNG TO IOWA. . Leaving Now York , ho returned to hla homo In AVayuo county , Indiana , where ho remained only a short ttmo before removing to Lal'orto county , 'where ' he manled Miss Kllza J. Webster. In 185'J , w.tli hla wife and three children , he' came overland to Dallas county , locating within a mile and a half of .tho . site of this city. When thla trip was made tin ro were no railroads west of the Mississippi , and the journey was made ovcrlaiU In wagons , taking three weeks. In 1S62 Undo Harvo 'bought " 40 acres adjacent to Ills homo farm , paying ? 1,800 for the land on which Is built the city of Perry. The first thirteen years of his residence In Dal las was Hfjont In a log cabin 16x20 foot , built by 'himself ' , Ho has 'been prominently Identified with the work of progress since casting lilo lot with the early settlers In this locality , and It 'was through his earnest untiring effort that the line of .tho old Des Molnes Valley railroad was located through this section. Ho tells with a great deal pf , humor his Unit acquaintance with thp chlQf engineer of the surveyor's corpa. Uncle Harvo was out In Ills buggy one morning looking for cattle , whan near Pearce's point , he noticed a crowd at men -with flags ate * , < and rode up to see what -they were doing,1 and was told that they were surveying- Iliio , Us direction was away from hla farm , but AH interview with the chief , a well \v6rde' Invitation to encnd tbo. ulxht with him , and the judicious presentation the next morning of a splendid horse , baddle and brCdle , won the heart of the blurt old KnglUh surveyor , and Uncle Harve had secured the railroad , , Just two years later end the shrill whistle of the locomotive awoke the echoes along Coon rjver , and the town of Perry win Uorn , being named for Colonel C.
