TROOPSHIPS MADE

Welcomers From West Wait
All Day for the Peerless
and Alaskan.

Red Cross workers and officers of the
port Of embarkatlon who meet transports
at dock had a long wait yesterday for
troops aboard the Peerless and the Al
askan. which did not warp into tho Bush
Terminal until after o'clock last eve
ming. They had been reported as due
to dock in the morning. but they were
forced to stay outside because of heavy
fog. The result was that some of the
food prepared by the war workers for
the troops was thrown away and the
patient Red Cross enthusiasts were
pretty weary.
The Rocky Mountain Clubs delega-
ton Of more than 200, marshalled by
the clubs secretary. Herbert Wall,
cruised around the bay all day waiting
for the boys from Colorado, Wyoming,
Idaho and other Western States, who
were on the Peerless, and finally came
up alongside her.
Some of the welcomers were Gov. E.
w. Davis OF Idaho. ex-Gov. +. r. Good
ing, Representatives Smith and French
Of Idaho. Representative W. N. Vale OF
Colorado And United States Senator
John d. kendrick OF Wyoming.
The Peerless brought 2.652 doughboys,
mostly OF the 146th and the 14sth Field
Artillery. The welcoming delegation
was permitted to 90 on the pier and
mingle with the soldiers as q reward for
their patient waiting. The soldiers. ora
