NOTHING HHEARD FROM WILKINS AND ELLISON; SuPPOS|T|ONS GIVE N

FAIRBANKS, April 6. (P)-Major Lanphier is rushing the repairs to the Detroiter under the assumption that if Capt. Wilkins did not return today he met difficulty. The Detroiter will be ready to fly not later than Thurs day. Tractors and teams are hauling soil to build up the landing field which is considerably drier as result of the warm winds the last three days.
 Efforts in communicating with Capt. Wilkins unavailing. The weather here is ideal and the supposition is being expressed that Wilkins might take off Saturday, or that he was probably forced back on account of adverse weather conditions and crippled his plane in landing.

DETROIT, April 6. (P)-Captain R. Wilkins advised E. s. Evans, manager here for the expedition that the fail ure of the snow motors to get thru was due to impossible roads and dan gerous streams and not from break ing down of the machines.
 Captain Wilkins also said that the snow trail the tractors went over was filled with stumps and the snow was soft and that the trail was only wide enough for a 52-inch sleigh, whereas the motors are SS inches across. The trail crosses numerous small streams with ten-foot steep banks and the hem mocks on the rivers, of ice, made the motors unsafe, some placed being inn passable.
 Wilkins said: AS far as they went they did the work of twelve horses in less time also, and there were no breakdown to mechanical parts'

EVANS MAKES SPLENDID APPEAR ANGELS ONE OF FEMINIST
 VESSELS ALASKA FLEET

One of the trimmest looking vessels plying to this port is the Admiral Evans of the Pacific Steamship com pany which arrived in port at midnite from Seattle resuming it's regular sum- mer run to this and the westward ports. The vessel created much local comment last night upon her arrival owing to it's splendid spick and span appearance. And with the ships or chestra doling out the latest musical numbers, the pulse beat of those on the wharf seemed to speed up a bit Captain Glass, Commander, might we'll be proud of his command which has been in the California run since last Fall.
 It is announced by the local office that it is the plan of the Admiral lln- CTS to leave Seward, hereafter, every Wednesday, southbound, making con Inections with the passenger train from the Interior. This announcement is of more than passing interest due to the fact that the vessels will return to this port early from the westward
 and remain here untiI Wednesday nights. In the present instance of the Admiral Evans, it is expected she will return next Monday and lay over un- til Wednesday,, matter of two or three days. To have a large steamer remain tied up locally for few days every other week is of considerable importance to the citizens and busl- ness people of Seward. Both the Ad- miral Evans and the Watson carry a complement of about 125 men. An Ad- miral steamer will be either westbound or southbOund out of this port every week from now on.
 It is also planned by the ship or chestras to present local dances ire quently while they are in port, which 1 is an innovation pleasing to many. The Evans orchestra plan to give a ! dance upon their arrival here next week. The time and evening will be
 published later.
