 CALLS FOR ENGINE REPAIRS

The big cannery tender Admiralty, belonging to the Gambler Bay plant of the Hoonah Packing Company, reached port this morning from Se- attle where it has been for the win ter months.

 Mr. Murray declared that there should be no strings on the bonus if 1t were granted. He argued that the limiting of the terms of sale of the land involved was against the best established practice.
 Brown Raps Opponents.
 Charles w. Brown, the youngest House member, and himself a war veteran, took a shot at the SUD- porters of the movement for restric- ton, declaring that the claim that a large per cent of Alaska farm lands would be tied up if the bonus plan went through too far fetched to be given serious consideration. Government statistics, he said, show that there are 200,00O,O00 acres of possible agricultural land in Alaska and all that would be necessary to give every possible claimant 160 acres of land as a bonus would be 4So,0OO acres. Only 12O,O00 acres 0f farnoino steaded in the Territory under the present system, he stated, which in cluded l50 patented homesteads and 650 pending patent. Under that system it will take Alaska 100 years to build up a farming indus try of noticeable size" he declared.
 Farmer Member Talks.
 r. J. Rickert, of the Fourth, President of the Panama Valley Agri- cultural Association and one of the most successful of Alaska farmers. defended the memorial and said the argument advanced that speculators would grab the land carried no weight. ''Unimproved agricultural lands in Alaska have no speculative value" he declared, "and whatever value they have comes from the inn proyements. He saw no danger in passing the memorial as it was originally presented. There are D. 5OO,OOO acres of farming land in the Tanana Valley alone. he said.
 Speaker Nerland declared that he was willing to go as far as possible for the ex-service men, but could see no injury to them in placing restrictive clauses in the memorial. sale to bona fide settlers.

Leaning out window of the car, the
admiral waved his cap to large group
who, despite the earliness of his de-

half an hour before his train left in

In the fhrong at the station were
newspaper men and photographers,

and his readiness to oblige with inter

Answering reporters requests for a
farewell message, Admiral Sims called
attention to dispatches in this morn

He declared he had nothing further to
say, "and nothing to retract" He said
he had received hundreds of letter APP

BOLD ROBBERY
In RESTAURANT
While Proprietor Was Sit

trance
BALJ 8 0REI LUNCH
! MAN LOST $24.S7
2
Th : Cut Wire In Screen
5 Door and Unhooped
Hasp

One of the bodest robberies ever
perpetrated in Barre occurred in the
Baltimore lunch reom last evening in
| just 10 minutes, between $3.50 and o.
o'clock, and, thought discovered imme-
diately by Mr.. Lander, the proprietor,
upon his return to the restaurant,
there was no clue to the person who re-
lieved the cash register OF $24.s7
AT this hour in the evening restau-
rant business is always at a lull, so
MIR. Lander stepped out of the restau-
rant to get little frseh air and talk
with friend, Orrin Hughes, after first
making secure the screen door in the
kitchen which open onto Enterprise al
ley. Being at the front of the restau-
rant and sitting on the Reid building
steps adjacent to the entrance of the
lunch room, Mr. Lander was in posi-
tion to see anyone who might enter
from the street. He later learned that
he was not in position to see anyone
who might enter from Enterprise all
ley, and when, at the return to the res
found the cash drawer wide open and
the contents missing he was somewhat
startled. Momentarily he believed his
neighbors, Messrs. Lafayette & Blake
ly, who conduct barber shop and with
whom he is very friendly, were play
ing joke upon him so he Immediately
requested that they refund his money.
The BARRIERS wondered what he was
talking about and questioned his san
hy, when he entered their shop; then
he realized that the robbery was
reality.
Returning he found that the wire i'm
the screen door had been cut with a
knife and persons hand thrust inside
to unhook the door The police were
called and examined the surroundings,
but not clue remained and the sup
position is that the person who did the
act is very familiar with the restau-
rant, for without knowledge of the
exact location of the screen door hook
and aware of the fact that the cash
register when opened does not ring. the
act could not have been performed in
such a short time. The cut in the screen
door was just above the hook, and the
hand thrust through to open the door
was evidently small one.
The theory of the police is that the
'erson was not alone but assisted bv
someone across the road, who signalled
he perpetrator of the danger or safety
II the act, as person can easily dis
ern another from the screen door in
enterprise alley through the restau-
ant to the opposite side of the street,
where Mr.. Lander believes someone
gas stationed to signal his moves.
