The Chitina leader., 1913-08-12
.OF GENERAL . INFORMATION

employed on the railroad for a time. Our former townsman Louis Mar
 guiles, now one of Stewards loyal
 boosters, is here with two good
 horses and with a partner he is pur-
 chasing an ample supply of provi-
 sions and tools to allow them to stay
 in the Sushanna country for several weeks. After that time he will send
 out for more supplies if the camp
 continues to look good and is likely to be permanent. In that event he may go into some business.
 Captain Morris came over from Valdez this morning on the launch
 Flirt. He also brought the 3M. The latter he will place on the ways at Eyak and build an extension of 12
 feet. It is now 45 feet long and it will be enlarged to 57 feet. A
 double engine will also be built and
 the speed capacity increased to g
 knots per hour. This work will be
 completed in six weeks and after
 that time the 3M. may be placed on
 run from Cordova.
