 That the greatness Of Alaska, with its future. and its problems of trans po-tauon impressed him, cannot be denied. but he only spoke of those problems in a general way, and of, 6ered no remedies.
 Mir Fisher said that he was sads- fled that Mir. Dickeson would work out the problems here to the best interests of the people and at the same time protect the stockholders interests on a basis that would be satisfactory to both.
 The coal question was gone over at length, but while he admitted that it was a question which should receive immediate attention, sdn he did not state what would be his plan nor did he even tell what would be- his recommendation. other than to say that should the leasing system be. adopted. he would be in favor of but one system. and that whereby the surplus should go back to the devel- opmeut Of Alaska.
 He impressed it upon his audience and Alaska as whole. that in the future they should tell Congress what should be done. setting forth plans in detail. and not tell Washington, what not so do,

 Umowu woman. She arrived in the city the day before the fire and was employed as a chambermaid in the hotel She Is described as tall and wore glasses, was very quiet of demeanor. She was seen to reach a window but rather than jump ont she plunged back Into the flames which surrounded her.
 A number of miraculous escapes were made. More than a dozen per sons made their escape by Jumping from the burning building to one six feet away. and then going down the fire escape.
 Night Clerk J. z KimberHn fought his way through the flames to the third floor where his wife was sleep ing. and dragged her down to safety Both were badly burned and are in the hospital.
 Mir. KimberHn says that when the stlnd pipe which reaches to the sec opd floor was manned and an attempt made to fight the fire from the in- side there was no water
 Almost without exception those who escaped with their lives were perfectly nude. their night clothes be ing burned from their bodies in mak- Ing their escape through the flames.
 It is believed that many more lives were lost. but as the day clerk Is dead, and the hotel regitser burned, there is no way Of checking up the list Of guests who were at the hotel at the time Of the fire
 Everyone in the hotel at the time lost their baggage.
 The fire guttcd the whole block as far ID as Behreuds' bank, and today special policemen are patrolling the district and the firemen are search ing for more bodies which are believ- ed Co be in the ruins.

NhE ahAasonaA aNNNsa Aa-H-a JUNEAU. Sept 5-At a few min utes after midnight Sunday night. an alarm of fire was turned in by one Of the firemeu on the steamer Geor- gia. and within an incredibly short time flames were seen issuing from the lower windows of the Ju- neau hotel. a frame structure of three stories without fire escapes of any kind.
 Although the fire department re- sponded with great promptness and twenty lines of high pressure hose, the fire gained headway and was so hot that the men were unable to go within the building.
 The building was full of guests at the time the fire broke out and but a few moments demonstrated that there was to be great loss of life. That this proved to be a fact is dem onstrated by the seven blackened bodies which are today lying in the morgue. charred almost beyond rec oguiuon. and the continual digging in the ruins for others, supposed to have been caught in the fiery furnace
 The hotel was hemmed in by other buildings. and with its narrow halls, and lack of fire escapes and other fire fighting apparatus made Of |, a veritable fird trap.
 The list of those dead, and identt Eed are as follows:
 William Arthur Southworth, a ma chinist. born at Lansing, Mich, died at the hospital last night from burns He leaves a mother. sister and two brothers living in Lansing.
 Alma s. Godberg, Born at Hammar- socken. Sweden. Her identification was made possible by the finding of her Bible in the bed-clothes beside her with her name in t. She arrived in this town with her sister on June .lS.
 Dennis Harrington Was born in Cork County Ireland. Has brothers at valdez: Bisbee. Arizona and san Francisco. He was employed al the Ebuer mine as a miner.
 Nick Boce, born in Austria and was employed as a cook in the hotel
 Walter Davenport, a painter by trade He was a member Of the Ia coma Lodge of Moose.
 William Morrison. a member of the Nasons and the local lodge of Elks, was killed by jumping from the third story of the burning building He made an attempt to jump to the next building as several of the inmates

Although unable to confirm the re- port. it is believed that Miss Emily Colwen. who resided in this city for a number Of months and was employ ed at the Royal Steam laundry, jump ed from the third story Of the burn ing building and was supposed to be dead. She was taken to the hospital and there upon examination it was found that both her arms and one of her limbs were broken. and that she
 sustained other injuries. It is be Heyed that she will recover.
