Much to the disappointment Of many
Seattle people who have trends and reia-
lives on board of the Nome steamship
Centennial. Cant Eagles, that vessel IL
stfll unreported- Although several days
overdue the Centennial was not expected
until last Sunday. and while shs has not
put in an appearance there Is no occa-
sion. her Seattle agents say. for uneasi-
ness much less alarm. But for several
days the telephone OF the managing
company has been kept busy by those
anxious for news.
When the steamship Oregon sailed from
Nome November 8. the Centennial had
600 tons II cargo to discharge and there
was a shortage Of lighters. owing to the
fact that many small boats had been
wrecked In recent storms. Ord narily.
with the means II hand. the Centennial
should have been able to discharge within
three or -four days but the Oregon had
scarcely left the harbor OF Nome when
storm OF great violence set In 1t pre-
vailed for three days and a reasonable
conclusion Is that during that psriod the
Centennial was unable TO unload any OF
her freight
The superstition is that It was Nc
vember IL before she got the last OF her
Nome freight ashore Then on her re-
turn voyage she had agreed TO tow the
disabled steamer Santa Ana to Dutch
harbos. This. J. n. Trenholm Seattle
manager for the Centennial people. stat id
yesterday took at least six days. so
the Centennial did not reach Dutch harber
until November IS Allowing two days
for coaiing she sailed from Dutch hafbcr
November %, and in the ordinary course
81 events she should reach port today.
She can easily make the run frGm that
port In seven days.
The Centennial will doubtless have a
large number Of passengers Her 1fAc ,rs
agreed to take the seventy-five pats Myers
left by th@ Oregon. also such messengers
as the Santa ANA had booked Shs
should have nj least so and possibly
more persons aboard.
Besides the Centennial. the United st stes
revenue cutter McCulioch. and the steam
ers Santa Ana and Portland are also
due. The Santa Ana was 10 be com
voyed from Dutch harbor by the Nc
culiocr. They win make slow time.
owing 10 the Santa Ans's disa bility.
The Instructions OF the Portland's CT
ficcrs were TO remn'r Mt Nome as long m
they considered IL safe to do 50. She
was probably TIE last vessel TO leave
frorw Nome before the close OF navtga-
ton. II would not be surprising should
she not reach port befora December

Several Of the larger Nome liners. no.
tably the steamships Oregon. Charles -.

charters. There Is rumor to the effect
that the Lane win make voyage 70
South America with a cargo Of rail-
way material to be used IN the CON
struction OF a new railroad from the Pa
cific coast to rich silver mines several
hundred miles toward the interior.
A plan Is on foot to charter the Oregon

San Francisco shipping men have been
negotiating for the Roanoke with n view
to placing her on. what Is known as the
Southern California run for the winter.
As all three vessels viii be in the Nome

present plans Of the operating companies.
no one OF them probably can BE- char

four months.

1t is not doubted by any
one that the government pays
the railroads for carrying
many more pounds of mail
than are actually carried and
yet the postal system is al
most self.sustaining. If the
government owned the rail
railroads in conjunction with
the postal system there
would be a big surplus at
present postal rates.
