Of Kent county In the Gordon contest

The case is listed as Joseph r.

The appellant argu. d that the Reg

SLUMP EXPECTED
 IN STATES SOON:: MONEY IS TIGHT

Conditions generally are quite bad in Seattle at the present time, and
 general slump in prices through out the country is predicted, accord ing to W. R. Taylor, Kantishna min- ing man, who arrived in Nenana on Saturday direct from the States by way of Broad Pass.
 The suspension of shipbuilding ac- itivities in Seattle, Mir Taylor said, threw thousands of men out of em- irloyment, both skilled and common
 labor, and there appears to be TO immediate prospect of their absorp-
 tion into other lines. There are no
 ships under construction at Seattle
 at the present time and none are in sight.
 The fact that the banks in Pacific
 coast cities and elsewhere through
 out the country are calling in loans IS regarded as indicating that a change for the worse in general con- ditions is anticipated, and it is be-
 lleved the first result of the action of the banks will be an unloading iof stock, in order that obligations may be met, and a consequent low ering of prices.
 | As a matter of fact, MT. Taylor says, many Outsiders are predicting hard times in the States, followed by a gradual return to normal con- ditions. Money is already very tight on the coast and the number iof idle men is growing larger steadily. A substantial break in prices is expected almost any time. Sugar was quoted at 26 cents pound when Mir. Taylor left Seattle ion June l.
 The Alaskan Engineering commis- sion is doing considerable advertis- ing in Seattle in an effort to get men to work on the railroad. and Mr. Taylor is of the opinion that work CTS will be plentiful within a few weeks. Quite number of men left Seattle on the boat which brought him to Seward, most of them having

signed on with the commission. But
 many of them dropped of enroute.
 The boat leaving Seattle few days later was to have brought TOO rail road workers.
 Notwithstanding the arrival of many men at Seward and Anchor age thus far this summer, all the camps along the line, on the coast end, are running shorthanded and the men who are working are not satisfied with conditions. the low commission wages being the chief source of complaint. There appear to be two gangs on the road all the time-one going to work and the other leaving it.
 Slides along the completed sec tion of the road north of Anchor age are giving considerable trouble and causing delay, Two of the slides are quite large and will re- quire considerable work before trains can be sent out to the end of steel. A steam-shovel is at work at one of them, at Mile 236. Notwithstanding these delays, how ever, commission officials claim that steel will be laid to Deadhorse in December, and MT. Taylor believes it can be done all right. if suffi- cient men are available for the work.
 Considerable difficulty is being ex- perienced in getting supplies to the camps beyond the end of steel, and when MT. Taylor came along. pro- visions were running very low. In fact, they had been out of many things for some time and complaints were numerous.
 For distance of about IS miles on the south slope of the summit the trail is covered with snow iron, one to five feet deep and the trav- cling, In consequence, is very diff cult just now Swollen streams com plicated matters greatly. MT. Tay- Tor left Anchorage or June II anl reached Nenana June 19.
 Many oldtime Alaskans were seen in Seattle and San Francisco. Bill McPhee, who is seeking appointment as superintendent of Mt. Mckin,cv National park, was in San Frar- cisco getting ready to come North and should be here on an early boat. ":.:..
 Leroy Tozier and Frank Berry have an oi. promotion office in San Francis, 0. The former had the flu during the winter and was very i'll for 8 tune. .~
 Tom hlaylock is in Texas at the present time and there are reports to the effect that he invested heavi- ly but not wisely in oil stocks.
 Bud McCrae was in Seattle and was thinking of coming back to although he had not fully made up his mind.
 Jimmy Funchion was in Seattle getting an outfit together prepara- tory to returning to the Chandar country, where he spent last sum mer prospecting. Bud Saum is al- ready in the Chandlar, it is re- ported.
 Mir. Taylor left Anchorage with two companions, but one of them left the party at one of the camps on the coast side of the summit The other, George Wagner, came on through to the end of steel.
