ANOTHER
 FIRE ENGINE No Action Has Been Taken To-. ward Securing Additional
 Fire Protection.

The need of additional fire protection
 will be urged upon the attention of the
 city council, notwithstanding the ap- parent indifference of some of the mem- bers. The merits of different pumping machines have been discussed. E. Mo- ses offered a Silsby fire engine for s22j0, the machine to be accepted only after a thorough test. The engine has been tested in a thorough manner, it is said, but no action taken toward it's purchase. It was tested last Sunday and again on Tuesday. After lifting water from Snake river distance of Is feet, two streams were thrown over the Pioneer Mining Co.'S building on First avenue. and competent judges pronounced the test complete success.
 Still there is hitch and it is hinted that there isa ''nigger in the woodpile, '' who will probably have 10 be smoked out before any definite action is taken.

Every Second Sailing Nome Yes seI Left Freight Behind
 in Seattle.

';' Steamship Senator Capt. Patterson, of the Pacific Coast Steamship Com pauy, reached Nome Wednesday even ing al l0:l5 from Seattle, which place she left on the evening ot July 6. The Senator brought lS4 passengers and a tuii freight cargo. The Seattle Post Int. lligencer of July 6 says:
 'fhe third of the second sailings for Nome of the season of 1905 is scheduled for tonight with the departure of the Pacific Coast company's steamship Sen ator, Capt. Jas. B. Patterson. Though the Oregon took 3S6 and the Ohio 2I5, the senator will leave this port with 200 passengers, and aS many more, the indications are. will depart for the Nome gold fields on the North Amer ican Transportation X Trading com pany's steamship Roanoke, posted to leave Thursday. The Senator's going will leave but one vessel, the Roanoke, DOW ip port, announced for second Nome sailing.
 "The Senator begins her second voy- age with a new wheel, which the man agement says will materially increase the speed of the vessel. It is racing rather than towing propeller The new wheel has pitch of fourteen-six instead of one of fifteen-two.
 .'Euery second sailing Nome vessel is leaving freight behind. The Senator has had third more cargo offered than she can carry, and the same is true of the Roanoke. More than full cargoes are awaiting the Northwestern Commercial company's freight steam ships Aztec and Eureka. Indeed, the outlook now is that the vessels remain ing in the traffic will not be able to transport all the freight offered this season for Nome shipment.
 Every one of the larger mining con- cerns is laying in winter supplies. They all expect to prosecute winter develop ment work on greater scale than ever before. This is particularly true of the Wild Goose Mining company, the Mio- cene Ditch company, the Hot Air Min ing company, the Pioneer Mining com pany and the De Soto Mining company. ''As with the Oregon and Ohio, the Senator's crowd includes large num- Der of miners and skilled laborers, also the wives of many men now in the dis trict. Capt. Patterson, master of the ' ship, whose sickness on the first voy- age of the vessel caused his friends un- easiness, is now fully recovered and will go north again in command of the Senator, which position he never re- linquished, notwithstanding his phy- sical condition.'
