FOR ALASKA r. r.
Dog Sleds to Garry News over Snow and
Ice-Action to Save Assets
on Attachment.

Jerome d. Gedney, of East Orange,
was today appointed receiver of the
Council City and Solomon River Rail-
road Company, a New Jersey corpo-
ration owning and operating a railroad
from Council City to Solomon City,
Alaska. Application for the receiver
was made to Vice-Chancellor Howell
by Sherrerd Depue, counsel represent
ing Philip V. r. Van Wyck, of Nor
ristown, and the board of directors
of the railroad. The application was
exparte, Ind as set forth In the bill,
the action taken by the compliments
is intended to preserve the assets Of
the railroad from an attachment for
5000 brought by a former division SUI
pe~rintendent of construction, which, If
unresisted, would hopelessly involve
the company.
According to the papers in the case
the railroad is hundreds of miles from
the nearest centre of civilization, and
service of the notice of the receiver
ship appointment from the nearest tel
egraph station will have to be made
by dog sleds over hundreds ofNmiles of
snow and ic~e-covered mountains and
barren wastes.
Inc Dill says that the
Trust Company. of New York, issued
$3.50, 900 mortgage bonds for construc-
ton purposes May 1. 1905, which were
sold for $347, 900. All thiss money has
been put into construction work. The
railroad holds a mail carrying contract
with the government, and to fulfil this
contract and pay other necessary ex-
penses for guarding the railroad prop
erty during the long winter season,
October Is to June l, Mr.. Depue asked
for a rule directing creditors to show
cause October Is why the receiver
should not be empowered to issue $780,
900 receivers certificates.

ISOLATION, so that the board could find
out who are unworthy to wear the
badge. Beck also requested the board
to have the color of the special police
mems uniforms changed from gray to
blue. The board, however, decided that
the present color was the more suit
able, as the board two years ago
changed the color Of the uniform from
blue to the present gray, the argument
then being that the special policemen
were often taken for regulars.
The board awarded the Gamewell Fire
Alarm and Signal Box Construction
Company the order to put in the new
signal desk in the new First Precinct
station. The bid was 81, 800, with 5000
discount for the signal desk now in
use. This was accepted.
