 They predict much travel between Valdez and Fairbanks this winter, as it was reported when they left Fair banks that several of the steamers which left there with passengerf for the outside had been caught in the ice, and that the passengers would have to return to Fairbanks and come out this way.
 They also report the steamers Mar tha Glow and Luella, bound for the Iditarod country with passengers and supplies, to be caught in the ice just below Cinema, with little chance of their being released before spring.

REMOVAL
OPPOSED IN SENATE
Sentiment in Committee on Naval Affairs Distinctly OPP
posed to Presidents Order, and Recommendation
to Abrogate 1t Is Almost Certain

believe that the efficiency of both the
Navy and the Marine Corps viii be
materially increased by restricting the
marines TO the very important and
necessary duties laid down in Executive
Order No. g6g.
Il regard it as a matter of very great
Importance for the Navy Department 10
have under orders ready for immediate
use at any time an eEpedtuondry force
OF sufficient size 20 assist the fleet In
capturing and holding an advanced base,
Inc Marine Corps supplies this force.
II there had been 5.O0e marines under my
nave surrendered on May I, 1888, ana

Reduce Friction.
Other naval officers pointed out IN
support Of the Presidents plan that the
efficiency Of the blue jackets would be
materially increased by removing the
marines from shipboard in that il would
reduce friction and would remove what
has been termed the police espionage
OF the Marine Corps.
The burden of the testimony offered
against removal, and which doubtless
will now have considerable weight with
the Senate Committee is the denial OF
any friction: the assertions that the
marines are trained and valuable SOL
their removal can accomplish no good
While possibly being the cause of the
disruption of the service.
Rear Admiral Schley summed Up the
opposition as follows:
Il oppose removing the guards from
the ships because / have never vet been
in any community where the tone was
such as to Justify the abolition of tho
police force over It. again. the marines
on number Of occasions have ex-
hlDited not only a marked efficiency in
organization. but they have been a
most important auxiliary to the success
or expeditions with which they have
operated
Part of Navy.
Regardless OF tie opinion Of the re-
spectiVe witnessesl, however, IT was de-
veloped that all naval officers would
regard disfavOrab'y the placing Of the
marines under the army and would in
sist that they be retained as an integral
part Of the naval system.
OF the approximate 10000 marines in
the service, 2,70O were on battleships and
cruisers prior to the Presidents order
Of removal Since that time about 500
have been withdrawn ashore, and others
are following as rapidly as the
eXigences of the demands at sea will
permit.
