The Alaska fisherman., 1924-07-15

From the time the intending tourist begins to think of Alaska and starts reading terature he learns about "Wrangell Narrows" and the "inside passage" And then during the entire trip he looks forward to and wonders where this 'inside passage" is.
 "Wrlngel Narrows; that must be at WrangelP he says. But no, Wrange is reached and Wrangel Narrows He begins to doubt that there is such thing

Berlin.-IIugo SHINES, more closely
identified with German Industrial life
than any other man, died at his home
here April 10. interchangeable in his
labors, he struggled against the i'm
pending end and was conscious to the

Around him were gathered his wife

terests. There had been no hope for
his recovery for many hours, and the
foremost medical skill could do moth
ing against the ravages of disease.
Since the grave nature of Herr Stin-
| mes illness became known in Berlin ii
had been almost the sole topic of dis
cussion. Ii far outranged in popular
interest the project published by the
experts committees for the settlement
of the reparation problem. The far
reaching business enterprises of the
man, his great influence among polit-
ical leaders, and his eccentricities, had,
| since the war, taken strong hold on
the German people, and his death,
though expected, has caused anxious
| speculation as to who may arise to
take his place.
| SHINES was known as GermsnyS in
| dustriul kaiser. He was one Of the
most dominant figures during Ill,
| World war and since the war hus beei
without a rival in Germany's financial
and industrial circles.
Enemies referred to him as the AS
| syrian Croesus, and he loved to boast
he was the richest man in the world.
The death of Hugo SHINES at the
very moment the process of disen-
iungling the reparations knot seems
about to enter upon its final stage, is
felt in official quarters and industrial
circles as IL distinct loss to Germany.
Whatever the popular or official atti-
tude towards his political orientation
or his far flung economic program may
have been, there was widespread
