MORGAN AND GlJGGENHEIR

The Seattle Times says 1t has reliable information to the effect that J. P. Morgan & Co. have secured cOntroll- ing interest, not only in the Copper River & Northwestern railroad, but also in the GGggenhelm, copper proper ties in the Copper River district This information goes on to say that "little If anything will be done this year upon the construction of the Copper River & Northwestern, save tho extension of 8 branch between Cordova, the terminal of the road, aud Katalla, where the coal deposits bought by the Guggenheims are located" The Guggenheims are said to stand in the position of being unable to handle all their tremendous interests and must allow the control of affairs to go from themselves to Morgan & Go. However, much of this may be true the interest that attaches in Alaska Is the effect t may have on rail- road building and development work. The people of Southeastern Alaska have been left in very doubtful mood con- corning both these houses-MOrgan and GuEEenheim. Valdez, Kstalla and Cor dova have all been juggled with until they have little faith in any maniiesta- tion of the big concern. To these who know the situation the lightsome talk about nothing being done "this year" save extension of a branch from cordova to Katalla," 1t is the laugh. If that branch is completed in any one year, including as it does an expensive and difficult, bridge over the Copper river, 1t will be feat in railroad build ing,
 The question of importance Is, are they really going to build railroad.

NEW TERRITORIAL BILL

Delegate Gale and Congressman William sulzer, are said to have worked out a new home rule bill for Alaska that will be substituted for the measure Gale introduced early in the session. The first Cals bill will be abandoned and the new home rule fight win be made on the new one.
 In the original bill it was provided that legislature of twenty-five mem- bers should be elected. This represen- ta,ion has been found to be too large and the scope of the bill which extend ed Alaska powers in keeping with the big legislative assembly, are greater, it Is now realized, than congress will con- ceds.
 The new Cale-Sultzer territorial bill will be modelled ou the theory that the fourth division will be created at once,
 Iu effect the principal work of the territorial council will be power to recommend Legislation to congress. With 8 united council and the govern ment officials of Alaska favorable to the new Legislation, 1t is believed congress would act promptly on territorial council recommendation.
 The bill takes away the authority of the federal judges to name court com missiouers and gives that power to the governor. The territorial legislature is granted authority to pass ordinances for government in minor matters.
 This bill is certainly great advSGee over nothing at all. It provides safe guide for congress. Something where

OUR ABOHIHABLE STEAMER SERVICE

So long as the people consent by to the treatment accorded them by the steamship companies in the matter of mail and other service, the companlea will suit themselves about is, even to running on schedules that raise the question In the minds of the patrons here as to the ability of the managers to think. There is no question h the minds of these patrons as to the con tempt which these managers have for the rights oI the people. Whether these managers can think or not may be open to question, but that they DON'T THINK, or that they DON'T CARE is certain.
 The people of the north are long suffering aud patient, but they have is in their power to change this order of things. If they went down to Wash ington with so much as q schedule of the sailing dates of these steamers for the last two winters a provision could easily be inserted lu the next contract whereby the mail would be carried exclusively by that ONE of the three companies that would lay It down here every four days during the winter.

Berlin. Nov. 5.-The viewpoint of
Germany on the Casa Blanca incident
was explained officially by the foreign
Office this morning. with the express
desire that it be cabled to the United

doubts.
'.All we demand" said an official
of the foreign office, lis simple eX-
preston of regret from France for
the violence employed against the
German consular office at Casa Blan-
ca. an expression such as would be
demanded by any nation whose ofli-
cials had been subject to attack. un-
less this is forthcoming, there would
be no objection to continuing further
negotiations.
I'VE cannot permit this point to
be submitted to arbitration, for we
regard it as a point of national hon
or that such regret should be ex-
pressed. The other point of differ
snce we are prepared to arbitrate." :"
