FEWER PERMITS APPLIED FOR
 BY BANNERS

Out of 175 Federal permits to op- crate fish traps in Alaskan waters for the present year, only six of them are for new sites, according to a statement made by Capt. c. S.. Ward. The licenses are issued by the War Department in addition to the license required by the Territorial government for operation of traps
 At neither the Territorial Treas urer's office nor at the district en- gineers office does the number of applications received up to the pres ent time this year compare favor ably with the number received in previous years. Heretofore, it is said, at the Treasurer's office by January 1, applications have accumu- lated in considerable quantity, a cir constance which did not occur this year
 Last year total of 411 licenses were issued for traps. The year prior to that. S9o permits were is- sued by the War Department It Is generally believed. however, that there will be as many issued this year as last. Most of those already issued were on applications from the big packers, such as the Alaska Pack CTS. Few, if any, of the small can- ners have made application yet They have, it is true, until July 1, under War Department regulations. in which to obtain new permits and until the opening of the season to take out Territorial licenses. This fact is generally realized by the canners and it is believed that many of them are taking advantage of it and will file applications at the latest possible time The six new permits issued were to the Hoonah Packing Company for sites around Katalla.

FULLER PARTICULARS OF THE ROBBERY OF
 KENNECOTT MINER
Seattle Alaska Dispatch)

Seattle Alaska Dlspatch)
 Drinking as a result of the death of his wife, Eli Brklch, employe of the Kennecott Mining Co.,, was waylaid and robbed of more than $1,O00 in Seattle on Wednesday night. Brl1lch had registered at the Shasta hotel, 2121a Fourth avenue. Seattle de- tectives have Chad Ballard and J. F. Majewski under arrest for the alleged crime
 Seattle police officers believe Brklch was spotted by steamboat accomplice of the robbers, who knew that the foreigner had come to Se- attle with a liberal supply of money. He left the hotel at solicitation drink at bootlegging joint in the south end of the city.
 As he does not drink, Brklch told the police, he did not remain long at the place and with his companion started to walk back to the hotel They had not gone far, he says, when two men sprang out of the darkness and attacked him. He put up fight but the two knocked him a revolver One of the men, he says, held hand over his mouth while the other tore off his money belt
 Brklch says it was evident the men knew he had considerable money on him and that it must be in a belt, for instead of searching him, the belt was the first thing thep looked for. In the fight, Brklch says he man. aged to scratch, one of the robbers in the face.
 Brklch told the officers that the man with him made no effort to as- sit him, but stood off at one side and watched the proceedings. The man later accompanied him back to the bootleg joint from where he was sent to the city hospital for medical attention. |,.
 Brklch said he had been invited to the bootleg place the night before, but did not go. He says that another man was held up the night before and he now believes the thieves at that time made a mistake, thinking they were attacking him. Most of T. O,% five years has been sent to his fam fly in Europe, Brklch says, but the s100O was all he had with him.
 Brklch had cabled to Austria on his arrival at Seattle, and had re- ceived information his wife was dead. This is believed to have caused him to become reckless with his sav- ings.
