HIGH OFFICIAL
 NOW ACCUSED
SAYS BARUCH GAVE OUT SEC. REFS THAT CAUSED STOCK
 EXCHANGE FURRY.

WASHINGTON, Jan. "A lively tilt took place in the House today when Congressman Wood attempted to push through his resolution to in- vestigate the charges of Lawson that a leak occurred from administration circles that caused the recent furry in the Stock Excange. Wood persist ed in his resolution after Congress- man Henry had announced that the Lawson charges were nothing more than a mirage. The resolution was finally referred to the committee on resolutions to report. A ten days sensation was caused when Congress- man Bennett of New York asserted that a rumor is prevalent to the ef- feet that Bernard Baruch, member of The Council of National Defense, was the informant who gave out about the Wilson note. Bennett also declared that Baruch sold short on Steel and this fact seems to strength en the suspicion.

RAILROADS MAY BE IN

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-Adamson conferred with President Wilson to- day and announced later that he will immediately introduce bills to prevent railroad strikes without sixty days notice. One of the bills will empower the President to place all the rail roads of the country under military control should the occasion ever arise when such an extreme step would be deemed necessary to prevent the ty- ing up of traffic. Some labor leaders declare that such laws will never be tolerated by the workers and that their passage would be the most Seri- ous curtaiment of liberty in this country since the Declaration of ln- dependence.

ALASKA SALMON PACK
 TOTALS 4,SOO,O0O CASES

The 1916 pack of Alaska salmon was the largest on record, according to a circular letter issued by the Griffith Durney company, of San Francisco. The firm, the letter says, has just completed its statistics which show the years pack to be close to 4,SOOOOO cases. This is an in crease of more than 100000 cases ever 1915, the previous high record year.
 The warm weather in June, July and August of this year was re- sponsible for a heavy demand for pink salmon, the only variety of the 1915 pack that was offering in large quantities at that time This demand not only cleaned out stocks in hands of packers, but it reduced jobber's stocks to a very small compass. As a result, there was an unprecedented demand when 1916 opening prices were named, which made heavy in- roads on the pack and the market was quick to respond with an advance.
 The English market has kept pace with the domestic situation, Alaska Reds having advanced over six shill- ings a case since opening prices were named. This is equal to about 37 1-2 cents a dozen. Pink salmon advanc- ed to about the same extent.-Ex.

IMMENSE AMOUNT OF
 SEWARD INSURANCE

Two companies alone which are represented here by Mcssrs. Enuis X Campbell, stand to lose $llSA5O if which heaven forbid, both sides Of Fourth avenue were burned down. This statement is mad" by Frank Ennis and is given here to show how insurance matters stand in the town. These two companies are only two of twelve whose business is handled in Seward by the same agency. The loss, Of course, would not be entirely that much as the premiums paid would have to be subtracted, and the amount of premiums paid is not now known. In speaking again on this subject it may be permissible to point out again that if a cooperative in- surance system were established here it would be so provided that no one could lose anything, the fire sufferers getting back the money they paid in. At least this was the suggestion.

ASK FOR ASYLUM
 IN TERRITORY
SOUTHWESTERN MEDICAL AS SOCIATION WANTS TO KEEP
 INSANE AT HOME.

The Southwestern Alaska Medical Association is now preparing a pc tition to the territorial legislature asking that the territorial funds be used in part to establish somewhere in the territory an asylum where pa tients may be treated instead of send ing them outside. The Seward doct- OTIS. members of the Association, are taking a leading part in the move ment and are now engaged in the work of drawing up the petition They point out that some patients who are sent outside are only tenn porarily affected and could be cured in a very short time without going to the tremendous expense of sending them out. One case which happened in Seward is mentioned. It occurred recently and the patient got well in a, few days. Another man who was found naked in church is already on the road to recovery and it is report ed that he is being treated in hos pital in Seattle with perfect success. The doctors believe that if the terri tory took it upon itself to establish 'the asylum here the federal govern ment would agree to have the patti ents, or some of the milder ones at least, treated therein.
