The practical results tint will come from cheap transportation in the de. yelopment Of AlaEtn by the govern. mens or Alaska by the government railroad wore outlined by Thomas Riggs, Jrs of the Alaska Railway Commission. He and ". C. Edes, chairman Of the commission, both oi whom arrived from the North recent. ly
 Even single trunk line Co tne interior without the other trunk lines that we hope to build, is going tc de- volop tue whole of Alaska, he said. Hundreds of prospectors will come over this road with their outfits and develop new mining companies. Farm ing win come along to support the population of Alaska. I am not ono of those who expects to see Alaska an exporting country for many years but do believe that Alaska is going Go take care Of her own population, and farming will be Q result Of min. ing.

 When the Alaska interior is with in easy reach of Seattle the country win be oyerrun with mining experts looking for some place to invest capi- tai. Let us sec how transportation is going to affect prices. The mer- chant now has to take in supplies during tho summer to last him for nine months, which makes a large primary outlay. He bases his figures so that he may sell at Q profit and must take into consideration the freight transportation, the marine in- surance, warehouse insurance, inter- est on the money invested, deteriora- ton and stock unsold in the spring. These things bring the cost of sup. plies in the interior up to high mark. When the railroad is built the merchant win be able to send a wire to Seattle and in six or. seven days can have his goods In Che ware house at Fairbanks, with the articles ordered ready for the buyer.
 ''AIen Of affairs are not able now to Investigate mining propositions in AL .assa because it takes too long for prac- tical men to yisi. mining properties. Mining engineers have now merely touched the edges of the big mining propositions that will bring big re- turns when the railroad is built One Of these is the Broad Pass dis. trict.
 Alaska Needo Transportation.
 "What the people oe Alaska want is not cheaper transportation, but trans poration. That is what we want to give them"
 The commission examined numer- ous routes( the Seward route. the Val dez route. the Copper river route, and several minor ones. Mr. Riggs said lhat weather conditions in Alaska last summer were bad because Of the many rains.
 Chairman Edes will leave Seattle for Washington as soon as possible. Lieut.. Frederick Mears. the third mem Der Of Che commission, is at Ship Creek, but expects to sail for the South early next month, and will ex- anime railroad construction in Cana da before returning to Seattle. EngIn- eers arc busy at the commissions headquarters in the Alaska building preparing data. and it is expected that the commission win have its report ready before the next session of Con Seattle Times.)

TUG BURNED.
Little Round Top Quilted at Wharf In
Union River Monday.

I
| The tug Little Round Top was destroyed
by fire early Monday morning, at her
wharf in the Union river. The fire is sup
posed to have originated from an over
heated exhaust, and must have smouldered
| in the after part of the tug many hours
before it broke out.
Saturday night the tug towed a raft OF
| logs from Frenchman's bay to the Bayside
mill Of Whitcomb, Haynes & Co., and tied
up there early Sunday morning after a
| continuous run OF several hours. Sunday
| afternoon she came up the river to her
wharf, run Of little over half an hour,
| tying up here at about o'clock. The fire
| did not break out until o'clock Monday
| morning, nearly twenty-four hours after
| the tugs hard run. 1t does not seem
possible that the short run Sunday could
have heated the exhaust sufficiently to
| cause the fire, and it is believed it must
have smouldered in the after part of the
tug tor twenty-four hours or more. The
place where the fire apparently started,
and the fact that the exhaust had before
given trouble by heating, leave little
doubt that this was the cause of the fire.
The fire gutted the house and hull of the
tug and ruined the engine. While it
would be possible to repair her, the age OF
the tug will hardly warrant the outlay,
| and it is probable that the fire marks the
passing of the Little Round Top, after
| over forty years Of useful existence on
| Union river.
The tug was owned by Whitcomb,
| Haynes & Co. She was not insured.
The Little Reand Top was built by Ed
| ward James lHodgkins at the Paul Curtis
yard in Ellsworth, in 1871, for H. M. & B.
Hall. The Halls owned one-half of her,
the late s. K. Whiting, 1st, one-quarter,
and Capt. A. z. Holt, e-quarter. These
were the only owners until the tug was
bought by Whitcomb, Haynes & Co. about
fifteen years ago. Capt. Holt commanded
her until 1890, since which time she has
been commanded by his brother, Capt.
Henry Holt. Walter j. Clark has been
agent of the tug nearly thirty years.
The tug was rebuilt and heightened
thirty years ago. Five years ago she was
| fitted with gasolene engine at the Ellis
worth Foundry & Machine Works yard.
