FACTS ABOUT SEWARD

Seward is situated on Resurrection Bay, midway ot the coast line of the Gulf o Alaska and oo mes io' route of the Pacific steamers to the Orient
 The various trade routes of the North Pacific Ocean, and all the roads and highways and trails and mountai rasses from the interior converge at this point much as nature had anticipated the need of gateway through which the trade and travel of great region might 1nd convenient passage.
 The deep perfectly protected harbor presents an oG' ong surface embracing forty square miles, upon whlch any ship that floats may sail n safety at any me' ana which appearance suggests nothing so much as peaut ful inland lake.
 The mainland and shores of Resurrection supply am. pe space and perfect topography for the building ot cy Of whatever extent future needs may develops and this cir clnsance added to its natural position as gateway to the interior and the freedom from ice at all seasons of the hrbor and dacent waters lead the to select this port as the ocean terminal for the railroad The u limited coal and oil and mineral resources of Alaska WEI flow through this port to enter the commerce oi the wof ad in return will the supplies for distribution over a territory greater in extent than many state cOinbmed us making it the great port of the North Pacific or the NEW YORK OF ALASKA.

of Ruth Cruger in New York City have told The Associated Press Core spondent that they saw little hope for Cocchi in his dramatic tale in which he accused his own wife of killing the New York girl and admitted he mutt Hated Miss Gruger's body to protect his wife.
 The jurors said Cocchi's story had robbed him of any pity the jury might otherwise have.
 "He gained nothing by his dramatic presentation in the court of the ar fair" said one juryman. "The very de- Sc iption of the incidents were enough to accuse him disregarding any of the motives that he might have had. Ills tale was certainly well prepared for him. Of course, it is certainly his plan to have this trial postponed again and again so that he will be entitled to receive HIS lIICllIlS tluN HIo h''e''' '' prison instead of suffering solitary confinement"
 Cocchi'S counsel has obtained an other delay in the trial.
 According to Italian criminal pro cedure, any convicted man would have deducted from his sentence all the time he served in prison prior to his trial so that all the time Cocchi de- lays the sentence will be much time saved from hard labor and solitary confinement if he is convicted. =
 "Cocchi knows that he is doomed man. That is why he is playing for de- lay." said one juror to the Associated Press correspondent.
 President Judge Bagnoli, who, ac,

Kingsbury as he had seldom been

there was difference in the features,

His examination was for second

This decision WAS reached Today at

cation OF how much Of an increase mo
railroad men thought necessary 10 en-
able them 10 uhCratc without dGtlclt'
Indeed II is considered likely that no
body knows how far apart norman III
come and expenses arc under the pres
ent rates. In announcing a growing
deticit month after month, Director Cen
eral Hines had made II clear that while
increased payrullS and the higher prices
of ali materials and supplies had much
10 do with the failure TO meet expenses,
the abnormal falling off OF business also
was a prominent factor. The last Two
months have seen business picking up 10
such an extent that the deficit is beng
cut down. -,
The railroad Ollic!llS, lNtTclOIcp wiz
have TO IGurL ON many things IN asking
the commission 10 give them hlSncr
rates. The amount Most often heard IN
discussing an increase has been twenty
five percent, perhaps due TO the fact that
the last increase, initiated By Director
General NCAdoo, was Of that amount.
Operating expenses have increased about
i95 percent AID the deficit incurred by
the government in the first eight months
Of this year was approximately S29O'-
0O0. ZOO. The substantial gap between
income ard expenses may b" wldcncd
stlll further by the pending demands for
more money made by virtually all the
railroad unions.
The CONFER ice between Mr.. lines and

, The railroad men insisted that the gov
