The Anchorage Times in it's We'd nesday, July 25, issue, states that while for several days wild rumors have been flying about Anchorage to the effect that influential citizens are attempting to secure the removal of Col. Steese, and replace Col. Mears at the head of the railroad, there is no foundation to the rumors.
 The Times says that two especial grievances appear to loom in some circles, among which is the dredging at the dock to allow the steamship Alaska to bring tourists to Anchorage and the other that Col. Steese does not run special trains to Seward to meet the boats and rush passengers to Anchorage.
 The Times concludes that there is no foundation to the rumor and that Col Steese has the confidence of the people of Anchorage.
