GOV. RIGGS SAYS COST IS

Gov. Riggs said the cost of living and construction in Alaska is be- coming so great that the develop ment of the Territory is being re tarded, and urged that transporta- tion costs are already burdensome. This is particularly so, he said, in the Interior of Alaska. He admitted that transportation companies should be permitted to make a just profit on their investment. but urged that some of the additional costs of op- eration should be put on south bound cargoes, particularly on high grade ore
 H. L. Morris, representing travel ing salesmen, urged that the steam ship companies be required to is sue mileage tickets in Alaska that would be good on all the steamship lines. He was told that while the Shipping Board would not require such a policy that it would approve it as comply with the law If such an arrangement were made provided it were allowed all classes of peo- Dle

ALL THE TRAFFIC WILL BEAR.

Mir. Kent, who is conducting the hearings, said that the Government wants to do what is right by the people of Alaska, but that eXces- sive costs of operating shipping now makes it necessary to charge all the traffic will bear. He said the government lost $500,000 during the time it was operating ships in Alaska, and if communicated by the government it would be neces- sary for the government to pay companies approximately what the ships could make in other trafilc. He said companies operating m Alaska are making less than six per cent. on their investments now and would make less than that with freight rates/under the tariff sched- ule that was tentatively approved and which has been in effect since April 18th.

PRINCE RUPERT THREATENS ALASKA.

Judge Gunnison said the greatest danger to an American fishing in- dustry turks in the conditions at Prince Rupert, where the Canadian fishing interests are centering and Inducements are being held out tC make the fishing industry wholly Canadian. He said American ship owners are now making sacrifices by staying in the Alaska trade when they could sell their ships at pro it and get out of business or enter the off-shore traffic and make more money. He thought the United States should aid them. He said Alaska is suffering from the loss of men through enlistment in the war service, the draft and departures in consequence of the alluring accounts Of high wages in the States, and that there is no idle labor supply in Alaska now.

Speaking of admitting Canadian

Speaking of admitting Canadian ships to the American coastwise traffic for the purpose of carrying fresh fish, MT. Kent said the discus sion was hypothetical because there was nothing to indicate that the Can adian vessels would enter the traf- fife if it were limited to fresh fish.
 J. J. Kennedy, representing the Labor Union, in closing said he still believed that the situation in Alaska could be helped by permitting Can adian vessels to carry fresh fish from Alaska to American ports on Puget Sound

ADMITS SHIPS SHOULD MAKE MONEY

Charles Goldstein said he would not object to steamship companies making six per cent. on their invest cd capital in Alaska, though he thought very few Alaska merchants were making that much, or even four per cent. He said in view of previous raises in freight rates the last raise. though only slight, should not be permitted. He believed that S6.5O ton was fair freight rate from Puget Sound to Juneau.

PEOPLE DOING BUSINESS AT I0cc

J. A. Helenthal said that all the business men and mines in the vi- cinity of Juneau are doing. business at loss, and that the steamship companies should absorb a part of that loss. He would be willing to permit the companies to charge a rate that would make a good profit when conditions are sunch that we can make money up here in Alaska. Asked as to whether the people of

WANT SHIPS TO CHANGE REGULATION.

Judge Gunnison and other wit nesses urged that the regulation that prevented ships from going from one dock in a single port t6 another for freight where the quan- tity was not more than 25 tons should be changed. They urged that the minimum should be re- duced to 10 tons.

AGAINST FOREIGN BOTTOMS IN ALASKA.

The general trend of the testi- mony yesterday afternoon was against the suggestion of permitting Canadian shipping to enter Ameri- can coastwise trade. Mr. Hellen- thai, Judge R. A. Gunnison, the food administrator; c. P. Morgan, the Douglas fish buyer, and others declared that such a policy would not be conducive to the best inter ests Of Alaska or the United States. It was admitted by E. c. Russell, representing the Juneau Conner cial Association, and J. J. Kennedy, representing the Juneau Labor Canadian ships be permitted to en- ter Alaskan coastwise traffic except to carry fresh fish, and MT. Russell said that Canadian Pacific authori- ties said that it was doubtful whether their company would ac- cept fresh fish for transportation to Seattle. It was contended that they would probably refuse to take it unless guaranteed a sufficent ton mage to make it a profitable traf- fic It was pointed out that the Canadian vessels can now carry fresh fish from Alaska to Prince Rupert and Vancouver without any permit from the Shipping Board or further Congressional action
 MT. Hellenthal contended that it is not a question of American and Canadian ships in the Alaska coast wise trade but that it is a question of Canadian or American ships, and that if American ships should be forced out of business by the more cheaply operated and government subsidized Canadian ships the lat ter might very easily be forced out later by Japanese vessels, operated still more cheaply and costing less to construct. Mir Hellenthal made q strong appeal for an American merchant marine, saying that all Alaskans are interested in that.

Mr Kent said the hearings will be resumed at Seward and Anchor age and that if Juneauites desire to submit further testimony he will try to arrange for taking it when he returns from the Westward.

COOPERATION NEEDED.

Judge R. A. Gunnison, Food Ad- ministrator for Alaska, said that CO., operation between the shipping in terests, the fish interests and other shippers is the need of the hour. He admitted that the shipping in terests are now cooperating, and that they are doing their best to solve the Alaskan problems. He said that the high cost of transpor- tation was only slightly respon- sible for the depopulation process es that are working in Alaska, and that the high cost of living in the Territory is due in the main to the increased wholesale prices rath- CT than the increased freight rates. He praised the shipping compan- ies for co-operatinf in making their schedules for Southeastern Alaska so that there will be a boat every three days or thereabouts, and said if this arrangement shall be con tinued there will be no need for Canadian vessels to carry Ameri- can freight. He and other witness es contend that adequate cold stor- age facilities at Juneau would help fresh fish troubles here.

that the steamship companies should absorb their part of the loss es during these costly times in Alaska.
 It also was admitted that the people of Alaska are at the limit of their capacity to bear cost of living and doinig business, that additional cost would mean the closing of mines and a general shrinkage of business

Coffee Market

New York, January 22.--A further advance of to IS points at the open ing of the market for coffee futures here today met good deal of realiz- ing, while there was also some selling for trade account. After selling at S.91c, May contracts reacted to s75c, while September eased off from sS1c to 9.16c in consequence. Offerings were absorbed around this level by a continued demand for Wall street or commission house sources and the close showed rallies of or points rom the lowest. The days business included exchanges of March for Sep tember at 50 and 59 points, and of May for September at 40 points. Closing bids: January, s.30c; March, S60c; May, s.7Sc; July 9.00c; September 92oc; Oc- tober 9.2Sc; December 9.43c.

'B|G RECEIPTS WERE
 AGAINST GRAIN
Exporters Were Busy With Oats, Which Held Bears
 to Meagre Trading

Chicago, January 22.-Big receipts
 stimulated broader trading in the corn
 market today than has been the case
 for long time, and led to weakness
 in values. The close was nervous at the same as yesterdays finish to 1zassc
 lower with March sL24ss and May S1.2Sss
 to sl.247t. Oats closed asc off to isc ad-
 vance. and provisions down SC to 12c.
 Arrivals of corn here showed such a decided increase that general rush to sell took place, It was definitely known
 that considerable portion of the re- ceipts came from a clean up of con-
 gestion on one of the principal western
 lines, and there was much talk current that the supply might temporarily ex- cced the demand.
 l added to bearsh sentiment, but snow flurries and prediction of colder weather tonight operated later as some
 thing of an offset. Profit taking by bears tended further to unsettle the market toward the end of the session. Oats reflected the weakness of corn, but word of 500,00O bushels sold at Min neapolis and elsewhere for export pre- vented any aggressiveness by the bears. Plentiful supplies of hogs seemed to restrict inquiry for provisions and to weaken prices. Business in lard came nearly to complete halt

New York Futures
New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, La, January 22-Fear of price regulations caused fall of about SS bale in the price of cotton here to- day The market opened at the decline remained depressed throughout the ses- sior and closed at the lowest level. a net loss of 5s to 62 points. The main in fluence of the day was the legislation now before Congress to give the Pres ident power to fix prices on various commodities.
 While there were several minor recov- cries from the decline. no buying power of consequence developed and selling was quite as liberal around the close as around the opening call. Much liquda- ton came out, and with it was more or less short cotton. Spots shared in the decline only to the extent of 13 points. middling being quoted at 30S7c as against 2o ioc as the low price on January.
 Favorable comment was caused by the results of the government fuel regula- tions and the trade was inclined to take favorable view of foreign political news, especially in regard to the unrest in Austria and Germany, but these fea- lures did not bring in many buying or ders.

Money Market Based From 16 Per Cent to 4h-Short
 Time Money Relaxes

New York, January 22.-Stocks were firm to strong at the opening of today s market, making further gains during the forenoon. This advantage was largely, If not wholly, relinquished later, the re- versal concurring with the publication of several adverse industrial reports.
 specialties, such as oils. tobaccos, fer tilizers feathers and motors and their accessories, were again brought forward, presumably by, pools, at gross gains of to points. These issues were among offerings of the afternoon.
 General news in it's relation to quoted values was somewhat contradictory. Foreign advices, particularly the cumu- lative indications of unrest within the central empires, were helpful to the bull account, but this was nullified in part by the political situation in Washington.
 The money market was perceptibly easier, call loans declining to 41a per cent, after opening at 6. Short time loans also relaxed slightly, but without any pronounced increase of supply.
 Among the more representative stocks, United States Steel reacted over points from its best. closing at 907s, a net loss of F point. The Steel directors meet g. week hence to act on the dividend for the last quarter of 1917.

pant bulls have ever talked of as the ultimate price for cotton and because of great increase in the cost of production to the grower. Both of these things will have to be taken into consideration before any action can be taken, and it lccks as if any price fixing which the government finds necessary might as we'll come now, before blowing for the new crop really commences, as later on. It is absolutely certain that if prices are fixed too low, acreage will be greatly decreased this spring. We think the government officials appreciate the situa- tion as we'll as the cotton growers them selves for we hear them urging the grow CTS to plant for as much cotton as ever this coming spring. We advise against sharing in the bearish feeling now so prevalent,-Shepard & Gluck.
