TWO LITTLE BOYS SPEND
 NIGHT AWAY FROM HOME

Chief of Police T. E. P. Keegan has been having quite a lively time with two little boys, Leslie and Rex Leghorn, aged 9 and years. They ran away day before yesterday and were found the next day in an attic of neighboring house. They ran away again yesterday and were found today out on the Sal mon Creek road. Leslie, the elder one, was taken to jail when he had declared he would run away again. After being locked up he was still defiant and declared to the Chief that he would run away again and never come back
 The younger boy, Rex, is quite III from a severe cold contracted from staying out all night, and is at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. George Leghorn.

SAILORS STAGE DRAWN BATTLE
 ON FERRY WAY
Jackies Exchange Shots With
 Pool Room Proprietor With Casualties Nil

At least six shots were exchanged
 night battle on Ferry Way between
 a squad of bluejackets from the
 Eagle 57 and Joe Carasco, proprietor
 of a pool hall. The casualties were
 nil on both sides.
 As no hearings have been yet held
 the details of the shooting are still
 rather hay. As near as can be
 ascertained, Joe Carasco, who is
 Mexican. was chumming around dur
 ing the evening with a colored sailor
 from the 57. As they were walking, along Front Street another sailor
 from the 57 approached the colored sailor and asked for five dollars that he claimed was due him as the result of round of "galloping dom- inoes." The colored boy did not pay up so the white sailor knocked him for goal It is claimed that it so angered Carasco to see his pal walloped that he took two shots at the bluejacket as he was about to go along Ferry Way to his ship. After having taken the two pot shots it is claimed that Car2sco went to his cabin on Ferry Way and locked himself in A crowd of sail
 DTS surrounded the house. Carasco, it is claimed, took two more shots but missed and some sailor getting q flash of him sent a couple his way.
 Deputy Marshal N. O. Hardy had in the meantime heard something about the rumpus and was aboard
 the Eagle Boat talking to the Execu- | tive Officer when a breathless sailor came on board looking for guns and ammunition. Hardy went over to wher< the crowd was and walking over to a window of the cabin, entered into conversation with Car | lsco The beseiged man was rather | frightened but said he would give himself up to no one but Chief Keegan. The Chief arrived shortly afterward on the scene and Carasco
 went along with him to the city jail where he now is.
 Witnesses were being gathered to- gether this afternoon late to try to get at the bottom of the matter and it is likely that hearing of the case will be held either late tonight or in the morning.

RAILROAD WILL BE BUILT SOON
 IS PREDICTION
Stephen Birch Says Railroad to Katalla Assured When
 Tonnage Is in Sight

That Eastern capital is available tapping the Katalla coal fields is indicated by statement made by Stephen Birch, President of the Ken necott Copper Corporation, who was passenger on the Alaska enrOute to the States today MT. Birch repeated statement made by him to Cordova people just before his departure from there last Saturday, in which he said:
 When the coal development in the Boring River fields warrants it, we will build railroad there. The out look at present is encouraging, but so far the most of the work has been of a preliminary nature. From now on the development will be more rapid and when sufficient coal is assured the transportation will naturally follow. An automobile road is being constructed and the work at the mine will be pushed with all possible yigor."
 MT. Birch, in company with w. P. Hamilton, Vice President of the Ken necott Copper Corporation, E. T.. Stannard, General Manager, and J.. w. Cutting, are returning from a visit of several weeks to the com pany's mining property.
 The mines at Kennecott and La touche and the Katalla coal and oil fields were all inspected as well as the railroad from Cordova to the Kennecott mines.
 Labor Needed
 Just at present." said Mr Stan nard, "the greatest need of the country to the Westward is mino workers. We are short approxi- mately 150 men of what we really need to carry on our mining and railroad activities. We could use 75 men at Latouche, 50 more at Kennecott, and 25 to 30 more on the Copper River and Northwestern Railroad"
 The outlook for increased activi- ties in all industries, he said, is good. The canners, however, are hard hit. Everywhere on Prince William Sound, he said, he heard complaints of a short run of fish. Few, if any. of the packers, will put up full pack this year. The situation, he said, is causing some alarm.

COMMANDER OF WEST PLEASED
 WITH HIS TRIP
General Liggett Says Alaska Neglected; Impressed with
 Its Possibilities

The Richardson Highway from Fairbanks to Chitina is in good condition, according to the state ment of members of Gen Hunter Liggett's party who passed through Juneau yesterday southbound on the steamer Alaska Considerable mon ey is being spent on the road this year, and much graveling has been done.
 Near Sourdough the party met Col. J. c. Gotwals and Major w.. H. Waugh of the Alaska Road Com mission, and a short conference was held regarding road matters in the Territorly.
 This is Gen. Liggett's first visit to Alaska, and he expressed himself as greatly impressed with the coun- try's resources and possibilities. Our time was extremely limited, !" said member of the party yester- day, 'and We were able to give the country only a lick and a promise but we saw. enough to convince us that something must be done to build up the population. Alaska has suffered, as we all know, from lack of d definite development program on the part of the National Government, and the people of the Territory are entitled to more en- couragement. So far as roads are concerned, the War Department may be depended upon to carry forward without delay whatever program is permitted by the funds placed at it's disposal by Congress"

STAMP MILL AT
 VIM, HENRY BAY NOW OPERATING
Alaska Endicott Mining Co.,. Crushing Ore Taken Out
 During Development

Another mine in the Juneau min ing district was put on a produc- ing basis a few days ago when the Alaska Endioott Mining Company operating a group of claims in Will liam Henry Bay on Lynn Canal started a five-stamp mill crushing ore
 This is the first ore to be milled in the history of the mine The ore being milled is from the dump and was taken out while develop ment work was being done in the tunnel.
 No actual mining work is being done at the present time, but the company has sent out a call for labor to Dave Housel of this city and men will be hired and sent out as fast as they can be secured
 As the working conditions at the camp at William Henry Bay are reported to be among the best in this vicinity it is thought no trou- ble will be experienced in securing labor.
 On the City of Seattle leaving Seattle early in August will come a big shipment of mining anu mill ing machinery for William Henry Bay (which will be landed at the scompany wharf in the bay about the. fifteenth of the month.
 Besides the stamp mill, the saw mill is in operation getting out mine timbers and lumber for the company.
