DOCK COMPLETED
 OPPOSITE TOWN
 NEAR CAMP 415

The new dock situated on the farther shore of the Panama river, near camp 415, erected for the pur- pose of facilitating the unloading of construction material and SUD- plies intended for use on the Fair banks-Nenana branch line, Is now completed, and most of the men en- gagged in its construction have been given other employment elsewhere along the line.
 The old powder house, which was recently torn down, has been erect ed on this dock to serve as a ware house for the present; the stiff-leg derrick and a powerful engine have been placed in position and it now only remains to install the cable, blocks and running gear on the derrick and the drum of the hoist ing engine.
 The material gang has also fin ished the work required of them, and Foreman Lee of this gang with some of the men, have been assign ed for duty al the dragline camp. They will form the nucleus of the surfacing gang, which will soon be organized to put the main line in shape after the frost goes out of the ground.
 On the Nenana-Fairbanks line, where all of the construction work will be done this summer, all pre- parations for a commencement of this work have been completed, and when the ground has thawed out sufficiently, a commencement will be made and the work rushed to completion.
 Two piledrivers, working from opposite directions, are now driv- ing restles across low ground to bridge the gaps in the grade.
