ALASKA liGHTERAGE
 COMPANY TO QUIT
 BUSINESS SEPT.

Owing. it is said. to the present Nome traffic not providing sufficient revenues 10 warrant continuance; and also because of the presence of what Is designated az adverse sentiment on the part of the Nome public toward the company methods. the Alaska Lighterage and Commercial Company will suspend operation of the light craze plant on September l5, according to announcements made by the com pany shortly after the arrival ~ost-Mr T. A. Davies general manager. from St Michael during the early days of the week
 In talking to q Nugget representa- tive regarding the proposal. MT. Dav- ies expressed the belief that the plant has outlived its usefulness as a cor. poration enterprise and is no longer a dividend payer. This condition is, of course. due. to the lowered volume of traffic. The present traffic is far below the amount the plant is equipped to handle. Mir. Davies says. The com pany has not made any money for some time. he asserts, and that fact combined with the business risks in volved, the dissatisfied state of the pub lie mind. and the sentiment against the company. has led to the decision that it is useless to spend further time, money and effort in trying to keep the plant operating for q break k-even and possibly a losing proposition.
 It has, therefore. been decided to retire, as stated, on September 18th. The plant will be sold and the company will leave the field to others.
 Questioned as to whether there are any buyers in view. MT. Davies said he "could dispose of practically the en- tire equipment to the cannery interests and others" This would. of course. in volve dismantling of the plant and shipment elsewhere. He stated. how ever, that He uOtS llot ueeui II Adi to Nome to do this without first giv- ing the Nome public ample time to arrange for lighterage facilities. Even now, should We decide to dismantle" he said, "I will endeavor to leave enough equipment to carry on the Iighterage business. if some arrange ment can be satisfactorily made"
 As to supplying coal for Nome, Mir. Davies said he would ship all the coal for which orders were received" He stated that the price would probably reach $3s per ton this year."
 On learning the company plans to suspend, the Board of Directors of tho Nome Chamber of Commerce held a meeting and invited Mir Davies to dis cuss the iighterage business. The proposal was accepted and Mir. Davies explained the policy of the compan; and also the reasons for the decision to retire from business.
 It is understood t:,at he ,aii safe proposal before the Chamber and ;o. cal parties are now working on a plan to take over the plant and operate it. Details of the plan and also the figures at which 1t will be sold are withheld for the present but 1t is statea that the public will be informed on the subject as things develop.
 Mfr. Davies plans to leave Nome Sunday for the Outside on the steam ship Victoria. which is. now at Golovir. He will proceed to that point on the company tug Dayton and catch the steamer before she leaves for Seattle.
