PUBLISHER HERE
 ON YACHT TRIP
Owner of Cleveland Plain Dealer and Party Stop
 Off At Juneau

Others in the party Ire Mrs. Louise Hastings, daughter of MT. and Mrs. Baker, and MT. md Mrs E. H. Season and their ion, J. A. Season.
 Leaving Tacoma on July 5 the party has been making leisurely ;ruise of British Columbia and AL iska waters. They stopped at Ket- chikan and Wrangell and have run into many little bays and inlets on the Inside Passage. Leaving here this afternoon the party will visit Taku Glacier and from there go back to Tacoma.
 The whole party is in love with Alaska and the scenery. MT. and Mrs. Ebert H. Baker visited the Territory last year as tourists on one of the large boats and at that time determined to revisit it on a smaller boat so that they could ex plore some of the beauty spots not visited by the passenger boats. Ac- cording to Mrs Baker they have been amply repaid as he. says, that they have seen so many beautiful places, rivaling the famous scenic wonders of the world, that they have been dazzlcd by their beauty.
 The Keewadin belongs to the Ia coma Yacht Club and isa owned by Frank s. Baker. She is a trim lit tie ci iuising boat 55 feet long, built by Lawley, of South Boston, Mass. She is powered with a 45 h. D.

"The visit of Secretaries Daniels and Payne to Alaska has been pro- ductive of good for the Territory as a whole" declared Governor Thomas Riggs, Jr, when seen at his office this morning. Governor Riggs, who accompanied the official party in thei "trip to Southwestern Alaskan points, arrived in Juneau last night on the destroyer Hinshaw.
 Payne Takes Interest
 Secretary Payne has taken the deepest interest in the development of Alaska said Governor Riggs. we can count absolutely on his department for everything helpful" :"
 Secretary Daniels is going to proceed through the Navy Coal Com mission with aggressive mining of naval coal" said the Governor. He added that the Secretary of Navy was highly pleased with the outlook for development of source of ade- duate coal supply in Alaska for the Pacific Fleet
 COdl blOCkeQ UuJ
 At the Chickaloon mines, accord ing to Governor Riggs, 100000 tons of coal are blocked out at the present time and the Navy Commits sion is pushing ahead with its work. On Eska Creek at the present time 1,000,000 tons of coal are in sight for use by the Alaskan Engineer ing Commission and the Navy. Att Chickaloon the Navy Commission has erected temporary buildings for accommodating workers and mem bers of the commission until per nanent housing facilities can be supplied. They are being handicap-' ped by a shortage of experienced coal miners, but hope to overcome this in time. The work in both the Eska and Chickaloon mines, said the Governor, is under the su- pervision of Sumner Smith, Drills are to be used by the Navy Com mission, and it is expected that they will arrive and some drilling be done before fall.

SOPHIA RADIO
 RETICENT SAYS,
 NAVY OPERATOR
Man on Watch Testifies Tn Hearing; Remembers no
 Unrecorded Wreck Data

There wasn't great deal or communication between this station and the Princess Sophia while she was on the reef, declared R. E Cowden, of the Naval Radio service, who was on duty at the Juneau sta tion Oct. 24, and has been here since that time. "The Sophla was very taciturn and 1t was hard to get any information out or the wireless operator aboard her., con- tinued MT. Cowdcn.
 The Navy man was called to the stand this morning by Attorney Will liam Martin, in the Princess So- phia proceedings and questioned re- garding any conversations or notes he might have handled between Ju- neau and the wreck. The witness stated that he didn't remember nav ing any conversations or handllhS any notes, but if he did do so they should be shown by the official log of the station which has already been placed in evidence in the pres ent hearing. It is possible, ne stat ed that he did handle some com munica tions of the kind mentioned and that in the rush of business on that ccasion, one or even more were overlooked and not entered In the log, in which case, he added, there would be no record of them ana ne did not remember anything about such an occurrence
 A. E. Lucy Called
 A. E. Lucy was the first witness called to the stand this morning by Proctor Martin. He was in charge of the gas boat Murrelet at the time of the wreck. He stated that mel was in Skagway at the time the Princess Sophia pulled out from that port and he himself pulled out on the Murrelet about midnight Of Oct 23 He arrived at Haines about l:30 or ? o'clock on the morning of Oct. "A, remained there short time and proceeded south. Alter leaving Haines he encountered heavy snow storm and went into shelter at Seduction Point until the weather moderated. After getting under way again. he struck some rough going and a 30-mile wind south of Eldred Point but this quieted down by the time he got 10 Sentinel Island. When he got to Vanderbilt Reef the wind waf blowing about 12 or 15 miles an hour. the water was choppy, but not heavy nor dangerous
 Could Have Launched Boats
 In his opinion, he said, it was perfectly feasible to have launched the boats from the Princess So- phia and her passengers could have been transferred to small boats with put any danger of losing life in the operation. He said that the light house keeper on Sentinel island ,ame to the Murrlet in a small boat Q get the mail and experienced no difficulty of any kind in making he passage. The Peterson was at the reef when the Murrelet ar lived, and the Princess Sophia had already launched one small boat. The witness said he did not stop at the wreck, as his boat was too small to be of any assistance and he already had as many passengers IS he could take care of.
 N P Madsen followed Mir. Lucy 1n the stand He said that the storms arising in Lynn Canal came up suddenly and with great vio- lence. Uusually, he stated, they did not come before November 1, but that the year of 1918 was an exception the winds coming a week earlier than he had ever known chem to appear before.

the Cabinet members to have first hand information regarding the Territory.
 Both Secretary Daniels and Sec retary Payne regretted very much their inability to see more of Al aska. It was desired by both men to visit longer in the Territory and see more of it's towns and meet people from every district. But of fical business called them back to the States at certain time, mak- ing it impossible for them to re- main but short time here.
 Brooks At Cold Bay
 Dr. Alfred H. Brooks, who is acting as Special Alaska Commits sioner, has gone to Cold Bay on the destroyer McCauley to investi- gate oil possibilities in that region. The length of his stay there is in definite But after completing his investigation of the field, he hopes to go to the Boring river and Ka- talla fields to conduct similar ex- animation. When he left Juneau it had been Dr. Brooks intention of spending most of the summer at La touche and in the Copper River val ley studying the copper resources of those districts. It is not known whether he will be able to carry out these plans later in the year
 Admiral Goes Fishing
 "The last 1 saw of Admiral Rod man." said Governor Riggs, he was swathed in a mosquito net and had fishing rod in his hand, start ing out on a jaunt enjoying life like a boy" Governor Riggs left the Admiral's party at Fish Bay He said that he expected Admiral Rodman to arrive in Juneau in about ten days. He does not know wheth- CT or not all the destroyers will return at the time time. All the officers and men in the squadron, said the Governor, are enjoying the cruise and count this one of their most pleasant trips and will regret it when it comes to an end. Before leaving for Seattle, Secretary Dan lclS lDdut dI SINlHS that a part, at least, of the Pacific Fleet would make cruises in Alas kan waters and Admiral Rodman has expressed a determination that all his officers shall become entire ly familiar with Alaskan naviga- tion
 Construction on Railway
 Speaking of the Government rail way work north of Anchorage. Gov ernor Riggs said all work is pro gressing satisfactorily. Only one complaint was heard and that was regarding the shortage of all kinds of labor. The steel for the big. bridge across the Susitna river is beginning to arrive. The plans for this structure will be completed probably by September 1, and the bridge will be swung after the iceI has formed over the stream.
 Work on the Talkeetna-Cache Creek road is well under way, ac- cording to the Governor. Anton Eide has charge of this project. It is stated that by the time the snow flies, good winter trail will be completed directly into the heart of this district.
