tinue northward until I meet Sierra 1 and Donaldson and see them out of danger"
 | Silver Wave Blown Ashore
 The motorship Silver Wave, be- longing to the same owners, went ashore at Teller in storm last week. She had two anchors out and was pulling with every pound | of power in her engines. but the wind and ice was too much for the little craft and she was forced on the beach at Teller, Fortunate ly there was no damage whatever done to the ship. Teller got all her winter supplies and has no fear of the winter. But, the Lomen Reindeer Corporation had planned to bring back a cargo of reindeer for shipment on the Sierra. The bleaching of the Silver Wave cut the Sierra out of that consignment of reindeer, and ice conditions at Nome. Golovin and Egavik prevent i ed the Sierra from reaching those places. To make matters worse. at the new canning plant of the com pany at Golovin. the warehouses are full of canned meat and by products, none of which can be moved until the opening of navi- gation in the Spring, and will pre- vent the company from being able i to butcher a large herd of rein deer there, which was contemplated for the winters work.
 The Sierra and Donaldson were clear of the ice by midnight Thurs day night. They passed through twenty miles of thick ice.
 Shortly after the Sierra and the Donaldson had gotten under way, the water rose sufficiently for the Genevieve to get into Snake river, for the first time in more than two weeks. The company's tugs and barges are all now safe in the river, where it will be put into winter quarters.
 All these facts We're given to a representative of the Nugget by Manager Alfred J. Lomen, of the Lomen Reindeer Co. interests. Mir. Lomen concluded his recital with request. He wishes this story concludedby thanking all the force al the lighterage plant for their loyalty and pluck in fighting the the most trying conditions. He also compliments the crew of the Sierra for their excellent work Captain Carlson of the Sierra. he said, was everything that could he asked of the skipper of a shipi The crew of the Genevieve behaved nobly, and job could never have been finished ' Captain Hottell of the United States Coast Guard by his prompt re- sponse to the call for assistance. kept the morale of the entire or ganization up to the fighting point through it all. His praise of Capt ain Hottell is very high. Mr. Lomen is true product of the North country. He's good amhler-particular good and graceful loser. Although all this misfortune means a great monetary loss to his company. at the outset when he had hoped for better luck and great results. he was able to laugh about it and has wiped it off the. slate and is already making big plans for next season as if nothing out of the ordinary had happened. But Mir. Lomen and the greater part of his organization are sour doughs, whose education includes lot of hard knocks
 MT. Lomen says all that matters is that all the ships are safe. All the cargo for Nome was unloadad. Nobody got hurt or killed, so the incident is closed,
