SCHEDULES OF BOATS
 CHANGED F0R NARR0WS

Several changes in Alaska schedul- es have been made recently by the Admiral Line, the changes in sched- ules being caused by the closing of Wrangell narrows by tho government while it is being dredged.
 Vessels for the company operating in Southeastern Alaska, namely the Rogers and Queen, will call at Pet ersburg southbound only. Vessels on the Southwestern run, the Watson, Evans and Farragut will call at Pet ersburg northhound only.
 While the narrows are closed 10 navigation the big boats are compel ed to make an extra trip of 155 miles around by Cape Decision to reach Petersburg and therefore can- not afford to lose that much time by calling there with the same steamer north and southbound. The dredging of the narrows also will enable yes sels to use he shortcut on all ord mary tides and will therefore cut down hte running time to all points north of Wrangell
