ii. MOSES TALKS
 ABOUT HOONAH

"Hoonah," said Henry Moses, the ohter day, "is getting to be quite a busy burg. Situated as it is right in the center of the halibut banks and in close proximity to good salmon fishing 1t is bound to grow into place of some importance. Already there
 is quite fishing fleet making Hoo nah the home port and there is much talk now of cold storage plant being erected there for the halibut business, which is constantly growing.
 At present most of the halibut is shipped to Juneau and from Juneau to the States. With cold storage plant in Hoonah much of the business that passes through Juneau woulG cease. Many of the Juneau fisher. men will undoubtedly move from Ju' ncau to Hoonah in event that cold storage plant is erected there first"
 Incidentally Mir. Moses thinks there should be a wireless telegraph station in Hoonah. "The traffic is growing to be some importance, said he, "and warrants the installation of more rap it means of communication with the outside world and with neighboring towns. Then too, it would be a re- source in time of distress or trouble.
 The fisherman recently lost from the Waif might have been saved if there had been such a station in exist ence."
 Frank Partridge is preparing to build a big sawmnl to replace the small one now being operated. He expects to have it running next sum- mer
 Will Dodge and Frank Shotter were greatly disappointed in having their plans for opening a combined moving picture show and skating rink They had rented the building from the In- dian owner but alas, the owner was in debt and his creditors (other h. dians) holding a first lien on the prop arty took possession of the same. The natives down there as elsewhere are real sporty when it comes to picture shows and roller rinks, so Mir. Dodge and Mir. Shotter will erect a new build ing that they may have a chance 10 nnioy themselves.

NEW YORK, Jan. 9,-Claimants for damages arising out of the loss of the Titanic are waiting with good deal Of anxiety for the decision of two cases pending, one in the Federal and the other in the State courts. In the former A. l.. Brougham, who is attor- pev for Mrs Charles Natsch in g $75,- ooo suit for damages against the White Star Line in the State court is appealing to the Circuit Court of Appeals against the order of Judge Hough holding him guilty Of con tempt of court. in the other the White Star Line is asking Justice Amend to dismiss Mrs Natch's ac- ton.
 On the decision of these cases, par ticularly the first, depends the chances of claims against the White Star Line, amounting to $S,OOO,OOO the fate of which is obscured by a cloud of law. Under the Federal Ad. miralty law the White Star Line was entitled to apply to the Federal courts for the limitation of damages recov- erable against it to the value of the wreckage from the Titanic and the passage money. As the only things recovered from the steamship were the life boats brought to this port by the Carpathia the company has claimed that it is not liable for more than $96,OOO.
 When this claim for limitation of damages was brought before the Fed eral court Judge Hough granted the motion and issued an injunction against the starting of any damage suits arising from the disaster until the limitation proceedings were com pleted At the same time he issued monition to all claimants to file their claims with Commissioner Gilcmist by Jan. 14.
 But Mrs. Natsch was advised that while Judge Houghs actions were cor rect under the Federal law, there was doubt if the State law might not ap- pIv in circumstances such as these the Britishs law known as Lord Camp bells act provides that all claims for loss at sea must be filed in court with in one year of the disaster. It was held that as soon as the limitation of damage proceedings were taken up by the District Court the extent and variety of the evidence to be of, fered would result in a long delay.
 The court would have to take tes' timony as to the liability of the com pany for the negligence of its ser wants. If it could be successfully

Rosenthal, according to Colonel Jo-

of cells near Becker in the death

THE insistence which character

not know the gun men and that his

DUKE TO HAVE MAT
BATTLE OF LIFE
THURSDAY EVE

Thursday afternoon at o'clock at
Simpson, Kas., Frank Du Cray will
have what will probably be the hard
est match of his career. He will go
against the unbeaten Adolph Ernst,
who trained Hackenschmidt for the
Gotch match. Ernst weighs 1856
pounds. and is considered the supe-
rior of any man of his weight in the
world. Du Cray is the short ender
in the betting, but writes The Senti-
mel that he will give the big man the
best workout of his career.
Duke writes that he has series
of dates booked that will keep him
for several months, unless something
good shows up in Grand Junction. He
will go from Nebraska and Kansas
to Minnesota, and possibly in Kansas.
This evening he is wrestling in
Miller. Neb., and Thursday in Simp-
sons, Kas. Friday he will be in Con-
cordia, and Saturday at Janssen.
He says that business conditions
are excellent in those states, and
that. real November weather reigns.
However, that was written on jan
uary A and the temperature records
have undergone revision since then.

League Opens at Y. N. c. A.
Gym This Afternoon.

The first volley ball game of the
new Business Mems League will be
played at the Y. NJ. c. A. this even
ing beginning at 5:15.
The volley ball committee of the
physical department has had its fl
nal meeting and completed all the de-
tails of the league formation. Ply
sieal Director Wallace has had SINH
lar leagues in the east, and they
have always proven among the most
interesting OF sports.
There are four teams in the league
and the games will be played Tues
day and Thursday afternoons, and
the season beginning Tuesday after
neon will close March 6, providing
there are no postponed games. Each
team will thus play three times with
each other team. The winner each
afternoon will be determined on the
basis of two best out of three games
played, and the league standing will
be kept and percentages figured as
the National League in baseball. The
public is invited to all the games,
and there will be no admission fee
charged, Many of the ladies of the
city have already become very much
interested in the game, and it is
probable that there will be much en-
thusiasm over the league before it is
even well started,
The teams have chosen the names
of eastern cities for their names, and
