ing the identity of the steamer re-
ported last night from Boston as
aground in danger of sinking near
Stranger Key. off the Florida coast:
A wireless received by the naval
communica tions service here today
stated that the ship was flying sig

available here do not carry ship
with such letters assigned to her, and
it is believed that they have been

TOWN BOARD 10 BE ELECTED ON
 SEPTEMBER 30

An election will be held in Nenana on Thursday, Sep
 tember 30, for the purpose of selecting a new board of town trustees. The terms of those constituting the pres ,ent board expired this month. The date of the election was decided at a meeting of the board held yesterday aft lernoon, and at a future meet ing the judges will be named land the other details arrang- led.
 It was also decided at the meeting held yesterday, to arrange for a public meeting next week. on "Wednesday night, at which time the vot- CTS of the town will be in- vited to nominate candidates for the new board. That plan was followed last year and resulted in placing two full tickets in the field.
 The present board also has decided to permit all citi- zens of the town proper and those residing on the railroad reserve to participate in the election. Considerable con- fusion and i'll feeling were occasioned last year by the exclusion of residents of the reserve and the members of the board see no reason why they should not vote at the coming election.
 There is a possibility that Nenana will have the oppor- tunity to incorporate within the next few months and new board, in that event, will have much important work to do, paving the way for the transfer of authority from the Alaskan Engineer ing commission to the town. Anchorage already has been asked to incorporate and is now taking action to that end and it is the opinion of many in Nenana that similar ac- tion will be requested here within the course of a few months, even before owners of lots have acquired full title to their property.
