SURVIVORS ARE
 FOUND; ALMOST
 STARVED DEATH

MIAMI, Fla, Sept. 22-P)-Eleven days, crowded with suffering and privation. without food or water, in a lighthouse on North Elbow. a small island in the Florida straits, is the experience of twelve survivors of the recent hurricane which swept the seas along the southern coast.
 The destitute and almost dead peo- pie were found by a submarine chas- CT which has been securing the straits for possible survivosr of the storm ever since the hurricane Oc- cured. Extraordinary high waves sweeping over the island carried away all the livestick and every bit of food on the island, leaving the people without anything to eat and with no water supply, as there is no well on the island and the water used must be brot in boats. Altho they were in bad conditios, it is not believed that any of the twelve will die as result of their expert ence.

WHITE PASS IS
 CLEANING UP ITS
 ODDS AND ENDS

What is meat for one may be, and sometimes is, poison for others. Here it is Jimmy Fairborn, local manager of the White Pass company, has been praying for rain so that he can move the freight up the Cinema river with his steamers. He didn't get it at least not in overly large quantities, but his prayer was answtred over in the Skag- way district and for few hours or longer the White Pass railroad was tied up by bridges being carried away by flooded streams. Jimmy's prayer was answered all right but in the wrong spot.
 And just for that the White Pass is having to re-arrange its fall boat schedule. The washout on the rail. road delayed some interior freight which must and will be handled be- fore navigation closes. In order to do this tn company may run the Seattle to Dawson and pick up a load. The steamer Panama leaves Cinema today bout 1 o'clock in the afternoon connecting with the Seattle 3 somewhere near Hot Springs. The latter will turn and hike for Dawson to pick up freight for the interior if necessary The Tanana will return to Fairbanks with the Seattle 3's car go. The Alaska is enroute down the Yukon river and will come thru to Chena as now planned. The Yukon is billed to leave Dawson on Sept. 25 on her last trip, and will possibly come to Cinema The Reliance is clean ing up the river as she comes, picking up barges from differen anchorages and berthing them in sloughs and protected spots for the winter. She may also go to Dawson for freight, but it is not considered likely that this will be necessary.

GEORGE HERRING
 BACK FROM WAR

With his already copious vOcabu. lary increased by four words of "bas- tard" Spanish. spiggotty or something else of that nature, a half dozen of Montreal French. and many hun dred others which he acquired in a naval training station or aboard some shipping board tub, "Sparks' George Herring reported back home yester- day morning after eighteen months visit in foreign ports and cruising in strange waters. He dropped his anchor off Herring Shoal and intends to stay there sometime at any rate
 The nearest he got to the front was Spanish chili jonit, in Colon, Panama, where he found several things warm enough to suit him. He tried to get berth on some boat plying between the U. s. A. and some French port, but couldn't land it, so he took the next best thing and made a trip from Detroit thru the Lakes and dows the St. Lawrence river, viewing the Thousand Islands, which George declares to be a mis- number as there are but 998 of them by actual count
 As for the navy. or that portion of it in which he served, George has nothing but good words. He had a good job, good place to sleep and lots to eat. The latter was superfluOus as the lad shows no signs of having been under-rationed Beyond being almost engaged to a Spanish, or Patagonian, princess The Citizen representative was two stanzas behind at this point and can't be sure-and chased off of num- erous front verandas by angry papas, MT. Herring has no adventures to be chronicled.

PACIFIC CABLE
 IS NECESSARY

WASHINGTON, Sept. 22-(R)-Ap- bearing before a senate committee thfs morning, H. E. Eldridge, chief of the Far Eastern bureau of the Bureau of Commerce, declared that the trade with the Orient will be seriously retarded unless another Pacific cable is laid immediately He pointed out that the present cable is wholly inadequate to handle the business and international trade de- bends, in large measure, upon sat isfactory and quick communication.
 Eldridge informed the committee that at least twenty-five million dol lars will be required to constru, the cable but he is certain that it will more than repay the cost by the increased amount of Oriental busi- ness it will procure.

due to sail this week for Fairbanks Every effort is being made by the railroad company to get the freight thru so that none of it will miss the last boat and be held here or at Whitehorse.
 Nine passengers for the lower riv. CT leave Whitehorse tonight and it is probable more will come with the same train that brings the freight. All lower river freight at Skagway is being rushed ahead of the Dawson shipments, as the latter can come in after navigation to the interior Alaska towns has ceased.
