 Saved from Bottom of Sea

LONDON, Dec 1.-The task Of salving the gold on the Laurentic has finally been completed, and 99 per cent. of the entire cargo has been recovered.
 Altogether 3,166 bars of gold have been recovered by the divers from the bed of the sea, and the Racer, the salvage vessel that has been on the scene of the wreck, summer af- ter summer, for the past six years, will return there no more. Buried several feet deep in sand and mud, the remaining twenty-seven ingots are considered out of reach
 The total value of gold recov- cred is 4,75O,O0O pounds. Besides 250O0O pounds worth of silver specie. Never before has treasure been dragged from beneath the ocean floor under such difficulties or in such quantities.

VALDEZ PIONEER
 DIES IN TACOMA
HEATHER OF VALDEZ" sUCCUMBS TO THE INFiRMiTlES OF
 AGE AT TACOMA.

Adam Swan, one of the earliest arrivals at Valdez, and familiarly known as the Father of Valdez" passed away at Tacoma last Monday, says the Valdez Miner, from infirmi- ties of age. Mir. Swan went to the States several months ago for med ical and surgical treatment, having been in poor health for some time. At Tacoma he was operated upon several times, and for time appear ed to be gaining, but later his illness overpowered him and he gradually became weaker until death called him.
 MT. Swan was a firm believer in the future of Alaska, and of Val deg particularly. He never lost an opportunity to boost for the land of his adoption, and was ever in the front of every movement for the bet torment of the town and the Terri tory. To all of the oldtimers of this section the history of his coming to Alaska is familiar through his writ ings, which were published both here and in the States, and the familiar with his efforts to bring to the at tention of the world the great resour- ces of the territory he loved so well. 1 No greater praise may be accorded 1 him that that he was good citizen in all trem implies.
 MT. Swan was born in Sweden ] about "A years ago, and came to the United States as young man, residing first in Chicago, then in Den yer and later in San Francisco, where he lived at the time of the big rush to Alaska in 1897, in which he par ticipated, arriving in Valdez in the fall of 1897.
 He is survived by several child ren, Mrs. D. F. Willard of Valdez, and several sons and daughters in the states.
