Col. Frederick Mears. Chairman of the Alaskan Engineering Commis- sion, passed through Juneau yester- day on the Alameda bound for An chorage where he will shortly turn over his office and duties to Col. James C..

 Col.

Col. Mears said he expected the transfer of his cffice tc Col. Steese would be perfected within a few weeks and then he would return south with his family.
 It is understood that while Col. Mears was in the States negotia- tions between the Alaskan Engin- ering Commission and the White Pass relative to the operation of Government and White Pass boats on the Yukon and Tanana rivers during the coming summer, were concluded. It is understood an agreement has been reached be- tween the commission and the transportation company under the terms of which the Canadian boats will operate between Dawson and Ncucna and the Government boats will operate between Nenana and St. Michael.
 The Canadian boats will take all of the ore from Mayo to Nenana for shipment to the coast by way of the Government railroad and handle all the passenger traffic be- tween the upper Yukon and Ne mana. The Government boats will supply the freight requirements along the lower ukon anu ol' Michael, including possibly large shipments of coal for the Nome dis trict.
 It is understood Erne Barteau will have charge of the White Pass offices at Nenana, and that the White Pass boats operating on the river will be the steamers Alaska and Yukon, formerly in service be- tween Nenana and Dawson.
