 TANANA TERM NAILS
Alaska Central Agent Locates Grounds Near Mouth of
 Nenana River

Terminal grounds on the Panama river have been selected by the Alas ka Central Railroad The papers, showing the intention of the road, were filed with the recorder yesterday.
 The place comprises forty acres, six miles south of the Nenana, where the Nenana river empties into the Panama river. George E. Baldwin is named in the papers as the agent for the road.
 Mir. Baldwin has also filed notice of a homestead of 32O acres which em- braces the forty acres, thus making the railroads title doubly secure. By an act of congress approved May IA, 1898, and amended later, a railroad is the right to file upon Q certain of acres for terminal purposes.
 Mir. Baldwin is the engineer in charge of the survey work on this side of the range. His party is now at the head of the Nenana river in Broad Pass, ready to join the party from the Susitna side soon.-Fairbanks News.

PORTLAND BRINGS
 PROMINENT MEN
Vessel Sails Westward Same Day With Freight for Various
 Inlet Ports.

Steamer Portland arrived in Seward Thursday morning and sailed for Seldovia in the afternoon. Her westward freight cargo included goods for the Alaska Commercial Company'S Inlet stores, a stock for O. c. Herning which will be taken to Knik, and sup plies for James GirdwoOd and $. w. Wible. prominent mining operators at Turnagain Arm, who went through on the steamer. Small stocks for Turn again Arm merchants, amounting to twenty tons, were taken on here.
 Among the Portland's passengers was General Manager aud Chief Engi- neer W. B. Poland of the Alaska Gen. :ral, who has been absent from Seward since early in February, spending con- siderable time in Washington, D. c.
 James E. Pharo, general manager of the Alaska Coast Company, which has succeeded the Alaska Commercial Company in the steamer traffic of Southern Alaska, taking over the Bertha and Portland from the latter company, was also a Portland pasSen- ger. Mir. Pharo recently left the Pacific Coast Steamship Company to become manager of the Alaska Coast Company and is making a trip along the Southern Alaska coast to acquaint himself with local conditions by per sonal inspection. He went west on ihe steamer.
 Messrs. Girdwood and Wible have been operating on the Inlet for several years. Mir. Girdwood has hydraulic property on upper Crow creek, juit above the claims of the Crow Creek Mining Company which were recently transferred to a San Francisco Syndi- cate. He has an expensive hydraulic equipment there and has already talk en out a large amount of gold. Oper- atiOns will be conducted on a larger scale than ever this year. He is a New York man.
 MT. Wible is a Californian, living at Bakersfield He has been operating hydraulic property on Canyon creek, near Sunrise, on the south side of Turnagain Arm, for several years with good results.
 Capt. Fl. N. Humphrey is now mas ter of the Portland. The old steamer has been fixed up until she looks as though nothing had happened to her since her last visit to Seward.

TEREDOS BALK
 AT COTTONWOOD
Insects Dislike Flavor of Fiber of That Tree and Avoid Piles
 Made of 1t.

The engineering department Of the Alaska Central has found kind Of wood that teredos will not eat. This is Alaska cottonwood At least the salt water pests whose vocation is the de- struction of wharf piling will not eat cottonwood when any other brand Of breakfast food is handy. Whether they would eat cottonwood in ground hog case has not been determined. Certain it is that several cottonwood piles which were driven under one of the local docks year and 8 half ago stand unmarred by the corrosive energy of the industrious testacean.
 Wherefore the engineers are rust ling all the cottonwood piles they can find Cottonwood trees are not very numerous in this part of Alaska and only small proportion of those are suitable for wharf piles. Not enough have been secured to support both docks, and enough of other kinds Of wood are going in to keep the toredoS from starving and to prevent an eX- pertinent with the problem whether or not the ravenous mollusk will feed on cottonwood in default of other timber
 Inasmuch as the teredo is not cred tied with a mental capacity which would enable it to make an epicurean selection among different tbers Of wood, selecting that which appeals most strongly to the tastidious taste Of the insect, the theory has been adopted that the flavor of cottonwood is un' savory to the teredo palate and that the critter will not eat cottonwood un- der any circumstances. This supposed discovery that the teredo, which was believed to have the voracity of goat and the digestion of an ostrich, possesses relish in gustation which rejects the taste of cottonwood, is most welcome to wharf builders.
 Ultimately creosoted piles will be driven under the entire wharf. A consignment of these is expected soon and they will be placed under the docks from time to time until they furnish the whole support of the structures. The pile-driver is now steadily engaged in replacing the piles which have been cut off in the bloom of promising career of useful ness by the terebration of the rapac- ious submarine borer.

HARRY A SMITH
 KILLS HIMSELF
Former Alaska Commercial Agent at Sunrise Commits Suicide
 in Seattle.
nv cnbl. ,o The Daily aassway.

Seattle, April 27-Hsrry A. Smith, former sheriff at Astoria, Oregon, and deputy U. s. marsha, there, committed suicide in Madison park in this city last night by shooting himself through She head.
 Mrs. Smith is in Seward and it was understood that her husband was going there on the next boat. He left a sealed letter for his wife which he re- quested might be delivered to her un- opened. It was mailed this morning.
 Harry Smith was for several years agent of the Alaska Commercial Com pany at Sunrise, and prior to that at Ksrluk. He was well known around Cook inlet and had many friends. He left Sunrise three years ago. Several intimate acQuaintances are living in Seward, including Judge Hildreth, John BrowuSlow and Jack Smith. The latter is not 8 relative but the two families were intimate. Mir. Browns tow knew Harry Smith and his wife in Astoria.
 Judge Hildreth reluctantly carried the news of her husbands tragic end to Mrs. Smith after all other friends refused to undertake the ordeal Mrs. Smith reached Seward only yesterday on the Portland. She came here with Mrs. McCourt of San Francisco to open s millinery store.
 Mrs. Smith says her husband re- mained behind her in Seattle because he had several business projects in view and had not determined which to undertake She can conceive or no reason for his sudden resolution to .ake his own life.

AGAINST
 VALDEZ ROAD
Seattle Opinion Says Line from OrCa Knocks Out Adia.
 cent Projects.

Seattle, April 4-Correspondence of the Gateway fates appear to be against Valdez as a railway terminal. Just as there appeared to be a bright prospect for the building of the Cop Der River & Northwestern from Val dez by the RoSene interests, after numerous disappointments with other railroad projects, news comes of the selection of Orca as the ocean terminal of a brand new railroad enterprise backed by the White Pass X Yukon capitalists, to tap the Copper river dis trict by ascending the Copper river canyon from Orca instead of crossing the range from the head of Valdez bay.
 President Graves of the White Pass x Yukon, and NJ. J. Heney, the con tractor who built that pioneer road, are directly at the head of the Orca- Copper river venture, but their money will come principally from the Close Brothers of London. The Close Brothers are commonly reputed to own a majority of the stock and bonds of the White Pass x Yukon railroad.
 Sets Valdez Back
 The chief significance of this new move is the difficulty, if not impossi- bility, it places in the way of inanc- ing any railroad project from Valdez. Notwithstanding Mir. Rosene's claims, it is generally believed here, and posi- lively asserted by the Graves-Heney crowd, that he has not financed the Copper River & Northwestern. J. r. Morgan & Co.,, whom Mir. RoSene claims to have back of him, have eX- plicitly denied that they were in any way interested in his railroad venture. The coming of the Graves crowd into the Copper river field, with all the re- sources of the Close Brothers, inter- fered seriously with Rosene'S financial negotiations. It is now thought in re- liable quarters that Rosene will be un- able to raise money sufficient to build the Copper River & Northwestern.
 The selection of Orca instead of Val dez by the Graves interests was to avoid the destructive floods that sweep down from the Valdez glacier, and to avoid the crossing of the high noun tain range back of Valdez, where building would be excessive and the cost of operation in winter very heavy on account of the deep snowfall at Thompson Pass. Then, too, the termi- nal facilities at Orca are better adapt ed to the needs of a railroad and the growth of a town.
 Says lie Will Build
 John Rosene, however, asserts that the Orca project will not interfere with his plans in the least, He claims to have money guaranteed to build to the copper properties in the Copper river valley.
 Both the Graves and the Rosene pro- jects contemplate building only to the copper deposits of the Mount Wrangel district, l5O miles or so from the coast. Either would be purely an ore hauling road. The success of the Alaska Central and it's certain con- struction to the head of navigation on the Panama river has at last put stop to all talk of railroad from Valdez to Eagle City. That dream, which orig mated during the Klondike rush out of desire to get an All-American route to the KlOndike, has disappeared with the gradual working out of the Klon- dike district and the shifting of de- velopments to Central Alaska, in the
