SEWARD EXPECTS SEND 75 HERE
 JULY 4
Steward Gateway)

At a meeting of the Seward Cham Der of Commerce today it was decided to send large delegation to Cordova with the ball team on the Fourth of July. Ten business men have already agreed to go with their families. and including the ball players it is pro- bable that about 75 people will make the journey.
 A committee of the Chamber of Commerce has the arrangements in hand, and has set about to secure special steamship rates for the jun ket, The affair is meeting with great enthusiasm, and it begins to look like there is big time scheduled for about Fourth of July time.
 \ .4abia was sent this morning to the Cordova Chamber Of Commerce as follows:
 "Cordova Chamber of Commerce. Cordova, Alaska. The Seward Cham Der of Commerce at an enthusiastic meeting decided on business mems excursion to Cordova on July Fourth to accompany the Seward ball team"
 The scheduled meeting of those in terested in local baseball affairs took place last night, and it was definitely decided to send our ball team to Cor dova on the Fourth of July, as we are under obligations to return the com pliment with which we were favored by them two years ago. Seward would enjoy having Cordova as its guest on Independence Day, but in view of their previous invitation, and that we owe them call, it would not be becoming of gentlemen and true sportsmen to do otherwise than journey to the Cop per town. It is also very probable that large party of local business men will make the trip and the arrange. ments for this feature will be handled by the Chamber of Commerce.
 A finance committee consisting of Dr. J. H. Romig, E. L. Whittemore and A. H. Mcdonald was appointed last night, and their principal duty will be ito get the money" in order to meet the necessary preliminary expenses at tached to organizing the ball club and putting the grounds in fit condi tion for baseball manoeuvres.

14,295 EL|G|BLE FUR DRAF I IN
 ALASKA

The registration blanks and supplies for the territory of Alaska are now at the governors office, where they are being prepared for mailing to the cit ies and voting precincts Of the terri. tory.
 The letter sent with the supplies es- inmates that 13,943 men between the ages of 21 and 30 are in the territory and subject to registration. This is based on an estimate of the 1917 cen sus, but as the total vote case for dele gate at the election last November was but 14.295, it is felt that the total registration will fall far short of the estimated number.
 The supplies received include regis tratiOn cards, certificates of registra- tion and the printed forms of instruc- tions. As soon as possible they will be mailed to every town, voting pre- cinct, or federal officer in the terri tory, the supplies for the Second and Fourth divisions going out first. Fol lowing them the Third division sup plies will be mailed, and the First di- vision last of all.
 As soon as the supplies for the in terior sections have been mailed the question of the date of registration will be taken up with the governor and the war department by telegraph and the date set from Washington.
