 Large Run at Bristol Bay
 At the time MT. Chamberlin reach. ed Bristol Bay, the canneries were en- toying one of the largest runs of sal mon for some years, the run continu ing up to the day he left. So great was the run that the canners were obliged to place limit on the fisher men, as the canneries could not han dle the fish caught. The recent rules placed in effect by the Bureau of Fisheries appeared to be working out satisfactorily and according tc OOAoCoA ShoAiDOAAAA " SAC DCAAS IlSluIy enforced by both government officials and cannerymen. AS usual, several drownings occurred among the fisher men and the usual crop of insane and other malefactors of the law are in custody of the marshal at Dillingham; Much interest is being taken in Seward at all points along the line the residents believing that the same interests governed all westward dis tricts. A radio receiving set is being installed at Dillingham;, in order to be in touch with the outside during the winter months. MT. Winters, super intendent of the A. P.
