The Ketchikan miner., 1908-11-21

Buhring and Forss have on hand eighteen boxes of ice packed fish, six boxes of halibut and twelve boxes of salmon. They had intended to ship the fish to the Seattle market on the City of Seattle, but the steamer was overloaded when she reched here and could not take any more freight.
 The steamer Yankee left for Scowl Arm and Kasaan this morning. Mir. Baronovich, her owner, intends to take up his residence at kasaan: l The gasoline launch Admiral brought in forty large sized halibut for Buhring and Forss. She has been fishing in the vicinity of Duke Island. The driving of piles on the exten- sion work being done on the dock used by the Ketchikan and Union steam ship Companies boats will be renew ed again tomorrow. A number of | old piles are to be removed and new ones put in to take their place. A shortage of piles has been responsible for the delay in completing the work. The launch Carita last evening brought in a tow of piles.

 She looked surprised and only said:

 Not very large, it's true,
 Still when I urged as-as duty led A slight remonstrance, this she said:

It is pleasant to be assured that the suspension of shelter operations is not likely to be. more than temporary in luration.
