FREIGHT RATES TO ALASKA
 MAY BE CUT SOME

A reduction in Alaska freight rates. in general, may be made, ac- cordiug to John Fl. Bunch, freight and passenger agent of the Alaska Steamship Company, who passed through Juneau recently on the Ala, meda for his headquarters in Seat tie.
 There will be no reduction in the passenger rates, said MT. Bunch, as we consider the present rates are low in comparason to steamship pas senger rates in the States and which we proved recently by publishing a comparison list.
 MT, Bunch is on his way to Seat tie after a four weeks trip in Alaska during which he went over the trail from Chitina to Fairbanks and then back to the coast via the Alaska Railroad. General Manager Knick- erbOcker, who accompanied Mir Bunch on the trip Is at present in COrdova and will come to Juneau on the return trip of the Northwest ern. Knicksrbocker will remain in Juneau for several days, then come up to Skagway on the Jefferson returning to his headquarters at Se- attle on that steamer.

Herring Industry Growing

Mr. Bunch said the herring in- dustry this season in Alaska will be a phenomenal one. He statea thar packers to the Westward expete to put up S5,OOO barrels during the re- main6er Of the season.

 Mr. Bunch stated he was pleased with his present trip, not only on the coast but to the interior. The Government Railroads track Is be- ing surfaced and ballasted towards the interior and the remainder is in excellent condition, speed of be- tween 40 and 50 miles, being main tained by the passenger trains to Seward.

Good Passenger Business.

"The passenger business has been splendid both ways, this season. ." said MT. Bunch. We consider the Alaska passenger rates low now as compared to steamship rates in other parts of the country. The table published by the company re- gently, showing that Alaska rates were lower than rates on steamers on other routes. has never been refuted."

Charter Extra seatmcrs.

"The freight business to and from Alaska has been exceptionally good so far this season" said Mir. Bunch. Up until April our company was in the pink, but freight began pick. ing up and sOuthbound cargoes are now SO heavy that We have been forced to charter three extra car riers to handle the offerings. For instance, on the present trip of the Alameda, she is loaded with fish. The Northwestern on the last trip was also loaded with fish and no copper ore was taken out from Cor dOYa. There are now 5000 tons of copper on the dock and We have chartered the freighter Santa Inez to go to Cordova and take part of the copper. The freighter CooIcha has also been chartered to handle fish shipments from Southeastern Alaska and the freighter Norwood has also been chartered to make the trip north for fish"
 Concerning a reduction of rates, especially for freight, Mir. Bunch said lower rates were prevailing this year for fish, Alaska's basic indus try. These went into effect at the opening of the fishing season and aplied to both north and southbound shipments. He then made the state ment that freight rates, in general. may be reduced. This reduction is probable at any time, if such a step is taken.

REQUEST OF BOLIVIA
 FOR SEAT IN FARLEY
 DENIED CONSIDERATION

Washington, May 2s.-Bolivia's re- quest for a seat in the treaty of Ancon conference here was denied consider alton today by the Chilean and Peru- yian delegates.
 Without wasting words, the Chilean delegation notified the Bolivian lega- tion in brief memorandum that II
 i'd not even feel disposed to forward the Bolivian note to its government at Sandiago.
 The Peruvians sent to the legation moro extended communication of their position, but insisted that the in- structlon of the delegation did not empower 1t to comply with the Boliy- ian request.
 What would be the next step i'll the controversy was uncertain tonight. at- though Bolivian spokesmcn indicated
 they were not content to accept today's verdict as final. The possi- bility of an appeal to the United States government was suggested while in other quarters 1t was sain that If they failed to gct her case be- fore the two delegations Bolivia might
 dress herself directly to Sandiago and Lima
 There was no evidence that presfr dent Harding, should he be asked to intervene, would be disposed to take thy other attitude than that set forth in reply to the former Bolivian re- quest for participation sent to him soon after the conference was called On that occasion he answered that the question of Bolivia's admission must be decided by Chile and Peru.

 The first day of the pageant was marked by two more or iess serious mishaps. in which the governor ot Virginia figured as the principal ac- tor The first came about noon to- day. just after the coronation exer- elses, in which weres crowned the queen of the pageant, the Princess of Norfolk and the Duchess of Meek lenburg, by the governor.

 The disaster occurred few miles from Green Rocks, where the Drum mond Castle was wrecked in June. 1896, with a loss of PAT lives. A heavy fog still hangs over the shores of Finistre, making the work of the searching parties difficult.
