control of the establishment of the branch
agencies of Dunlap & Co. in the district.
Mr., Cheney is the pioneer representa-
tive of Dunlap & Co in Alaska. having
opened his agency in Skagwav more than
year ago. Since then he has met with
decided success with the Dunlap goods,
and has demonstrated that the high grade
of goods of that firm is appreciated and
desired to a great extent in the far north.
Mr.. Ballard is a great traveller, visiting
annually the agencies of his firm In Amer
lea twice and those Of Europe once.
From travelling so much he has become
largely familiar with customs of the civ>
ilized world, and he expressed himself as
surprised to see how close Alaskans keep
in touch with the metropolitan STYLES
He was greatly pleased with the outlook
for this field.
While in Skagway Mr. and Mrs. Ballard
were the guests of Mr.. and Mrs. A. L.
Cheney, and Mrs. Cheney accompanied

Manufacturing Houses Visits the
City, and Looks Into the Situation
"A. L. Cheney Made Northern
Representative.

George A. Ballard, Of New York City,
the active head of the world wide cele-
brated hat manufacturing firm of Dunlap
& Co., arrived in Skagway YESTERDAY on
the Queen. He was accompanied bv Mrs.
Ballard.
A decided interest in the bonding of Ca
madam goods through the port of Skag-
way was taken bv Mr.. Dunlap, and he
spoke to A. l.. Cheney of this city on the
matter. stating he would exploit the dis
advantages under which Americans labor
under the present state of affairs at this
port, and do what he could to right exist
ing wrongs. AS the virtual head of one of
the largest manufacturing firms of the
world, Mr.. Ballard seemed to appreciate
the situation manufacturers of the United
States are placed in. in bidding for the val
liable trade OF the Klondike. He is &C
quainted with Senator w. E. Mason of
Illinois. who came north as far as Juneau
on the Queen. and said he would take up
the matter and have an earnest talk with
the senator on the question. setting forth
the desirability of having the port closed
to Canadians.
The chief object of the trip of Mr.. Bal
lard to this part of the country was to ar
range for the representation of his house in
the north. In this connection he transacted
the most important business of the trip
FIR his firm with A. L. Cheney, the popu-
Chenev's Haberdashery.
Mr.. Cheney was Yesterday given the
responsible position of representative of
