The tide carried her out in the direction of the straits. As the boats was manned, her sail raised, and after several hours of hard work on the part of the crew she was got ten into Dolomi. The launch O. K. was lying Ut the wharf at Dolomi and was sent to Ketchkan to notify the office of the company that the Alert was in trouble. Immediately upon receipt of the information, the launch Urus was Chartered by the company and sent after the Alert. She was brought back in tow and is now on the beach undergoing repairs. It is hoped she will be ready to resume her regular run tomorrow.
 As the outcome of hrawl night be- fore last on board small gasolene launch that was laying at the Heck man float, William Harris, who has been in trouble with the authorities before, is serving a ten days sentence in the local bastile. Harris and a man named Fred Rappk had entered into a partnership agreement with the in tention of prospecting. While out they picked up gasolene boat adlift 1 belonging to man named Smith in 1 Ketchikan. They returned with the boat and came into possession of a jug of whskey. Rappk had been up town and upon returning to the boat be- came involved in a quarrel with liar ris, who s. ruck him in the face, n,ar- ly knocking him overheard. Rappk then left the boat, returning short time later with the intention of get ting his blankets. In the meantime, Harris had taken his partners gun and upon the return of the latter, pointed the gun at him and threaten
 d to shoot, Rappk grabbed the gun and in short struggle wrested it from Harris hands, at the same time asking oulookers standing cn the dock to call the marshal. When the mar shal arrived, Harris had secured an- other gun and both men were strug- gling for it's possession. In view oI the fact that the trouble grew out O.. df unken row and that no serious damage as contemplated by Harris, the charge was made simple assault and he was sentenced to serve ten lays accordingly.
