ately higher to Southwestern Alaska

ately higher to Southwestern Alaska ports.
 It is understood that the South eastern Alaska rates on general mer- chandisc will be raised $3 a ton, and the Southwestern Alaska charges ad- vanced S5 a ton. In the ease of Ketch- ikaa, the advance means that the freight rate will be doubled, effective April |; tse rate to Juneau, Douglas, Petersburg and Wrangell raised from $4 to $7 ton, and the charges to Haines and Skagway advanced from $5 to SS a ton. This will be the big gest advance on freight rates to the Northland ever made at one time.
 Cabin passenger fares from Seattle to all ports in Southeastern and Southwestern Alaska will average ap- proximately S5 higher. It is expect ed that new tariffs will be issued this week.
 Rates in the overseas trade, to South America, to the East coast, in fact, on every route but the Alaskan, have been climbing, and the enormous demand for vessels at eXorbitant prices is soon to affect the Northland.
 There have been offers for either purchase or charter of nearly every large steamer now plying between Seattle and Alaska ports, at prices which have never been cqualed in the history of Seattle as a shipping center.

ALASKA SHOT FOR MOOSE

EAGLE, March 6.-On the arrival here of the last mail from Chicken February 2S word came of the acci- dental shooting of one Indian by an- other at Gold creek, above Chicken. The shooting occurred February 9 It seems from the mcaere information that is at hand that some Of the Ketchumstock Indians were canning and hunting for moose about Gold creek and on the day of the accident Bob Single Eye" and "Old Jim' were out hunting in the same strip of country Bob seeing cold Jim" im- perfectly through the trees mistook Jim for a moose, and drew down on the object with a 3O-3O rifle. The bullet went through Old Jim's right breast. When Bob discovered his mistake he got the injured man back to camp and then hastened to Chicken and Steel creeks to report. When he left camp Jim was still living but no hope is entertained that he is alive by this time as he was an old man and was dangerously wounded.-EX.

The National Live Stock Insurance
Company Of Topeka has gone into the
hands Of receiver. A letter has been
sent to several policy holders by the
president Of the concern advising them
to ask that their policies be cancelled.
The Insurance COMMISSIONS. of this
state, however, advises not to make
such request, az this would mean at
the short term rates, which would be
much higher than il the policy holder
only paid pro rata for the time ne was
insured. The position Of the Commis.
sioner Of this state is that the appoint
ment of the receiver cancels the insur-
ance. Your mites are probably in the
hands Of innocent purchasers, and will
have to be paid in full in that case, but
you should have refund COZ ering your
anearned premium from the date of
the appointment of the receiver. The
Company has 100000 in securities on
deposit with the insurance department
Of Kansas. and the Colorado commisk
ioner says this should be sufficient to
enable the receiver TO pay III. claims
in full.
