THE WAY IT LOOKS

According to a Juneau dispatch received last evening" it looks ike Suzer will get his certltl- cate of election as Delegate to congress. Attor- ney General Grigsby's opinion in the matter may be considered conclusive. The canvassing board having requested an opinion. that official Is not without having looked deeply into the legality ot the points at issue before he gave his ans"ef to the board Now if the board-and the mem bers cannot do otherwise---issue certificate ol election to Suzer and Wickersham takes the mat ter up with congress, Sulzer will take his seat as Delegate from Alaska. Of this there need not be any doubt because congress would no- iNei. act contrary to the opinion rendered by the a.. torney general. He is the duly elected o..e-a. to whom all such questions must be referred Aside from that there is the staring fact tha5 with democratic administration. what chance can a man like Wichersham have to gain point a man who has thrown aside all sorts of polt-ca- affiliation in order to float on the wave of popu- larity?

BURNSIDE FIXES THE BREAK

The cableship Burnside arrived in Cordova bay yesterday afternoon and made repairs to the Valdez-Cordova cable, which has been out of commits sion for nearly week past. A sec ton of the cable nearly two miles in length was taken up and replaced with new, the damage having been ascertained to have been occasioned by the swaying of the cable over the rough. jagged surface of the bottom of the bay. The work was completed about 1:45 this morning and com- munication once more restored.
 The break occurred about 75 miles from Valdez, or about 15 or 20 miles outside of Cordova, it's exact locality being determined through delicate tests made in the Valdez office by Master Signal Electrician Faust, the operator in charge. These tests are extremely complicated, requiring the use of delicate mechanism and great amount of skill and technical train- ing. Through his ability in this line MT. Faust was able to advise the off, cers of the Burnside the location of the break, thus saving much valuable time.

WASHINGTON, D. C.. Feb. 26.- President Markham, of the Illinois Central railroad, in an interview. this morning, fiouted the report that a car shortage was in a large measure responsible for the high prices of foodstuffs.
