 The rain is expected to turn to snow tonight or early tomorrow and much colder weather is prob able by Wednesday.
 For time yesterday, especial ly last night, many streets seem ed changed to streams as the wa ter rushed down from the hill sides. Many basements weae flooded and the Fire Department s trucks were called into use.
 Up the Basin road, several slides have occurred. Hikers fe. ported the first slide as beyond the rock crusher, 10 feet hieai mostly snow. and extending across the road.
 Reports this afternoon indicated that the slide which came down off Mount Juneau a short distance from the old Ebner mine property was of larger proportions than was originally believed.

 For distance of about 150 yards the road is covered to |. depth of approximately 20 feet The snow swept down off the mountain last night, loosened by the heavy rains. tore trees and all growth out of the ground CT crushed them flat, and went to the bottom of the hill and to the flats.

LATHROP WILL ANNOUNCE HIS
 DECISION SOON
Is Considering Requests to Be Candidate for Ma
 tional Committeeman

Confirming telegraphic reports from Cordoga Capt A. E. Lathrop prominent Alaskan business man and former legislator, yesterday admitted that he was seriously considering making the race for Republican National Committed man for the Territory in response to many requests he has received from Interior. Western and Soufh- eastern Alaska. Capt Lathrop was a local visitor for a shot time last night. proceeding south on the Alameda.
 While here he was visited by n number of prominent Republicans who urged him 10 declare himself. To them and 10 a representative of The Empire he said he would make his decision within few days.
 ''I have received many requests 10 make the race. and l am con sidering the matter seriously. While it is gratifying to know that so many people in the diff ferent parts of Alaska want me 10 become a candidate, l must have time to consider it. I shall make a final decision within few days he said.
 For several years Capt Lath rop's principal business interests were composed of moving picture theatres in Cordova, Anchorage and Fairbanks. In late years, however. these have given way to the coal mining industry. Presi. dent and principal owner of the Healy River Coal Corporation at Suntrana. on the Alaska Railroad, he has developed the biggest pfo- ducing coal mine in the Territory. 1t is constantly increasing it's pro- duction and adding to it's mining equipment and force of employees.
 We recently signed a contract for fuel with the Fairbanks Ex- ploration Company which calls for Furnishing it with 10000 tons If coal annually for a period of 20 years" Capt Lathrop said. '"This. however, is but a small part of our total business today. We are selling all of the fuel used in in- dustry in our part of Alaska. The Government is buying all of it's coal from us, except that used on locomotives. Every station, see tion house and other Government owned institutions from Fairbanks 10 Seward, is using our product. Unly a few days ago we closed a contract with an English corporl tion, operating dredges out cf Fairbanks, for 10000 tons.'
 Capt Lathrop is going to Se- attle and Portland 10 purchase new machinery and equipment for the mine. Operations up to date have been confined to cutting the several veins on the property on Q horizontal plane. It is now pro posed to sink on one of the larger veins and machinery for this de velopment will be bought at once and shipped to Suntrana. The mine is now producing 300 tons daily.
 Fairbanks is better than it has
The Daily Alaska empire., 1928-01-16

been in years, Capt. Lathrop said.
 The Fairbanks Exploration Com pany continues it's big develop. ment program and smaller com. panies and individuals are dei2s considerable work. New deyeloe ments are certain to materiaszs in the near future, he asserted. Options have been taken on d large number of properties seal tered over a wide area in tie Tanana Valley and most of then. it is believed, are almost certain to be materialized.

Seven players and Coach K. w Abell of the Alaska College ar. rived i'll Juneau Saturday even ing on the Admiral Rogers fol q three game series here, wind ing Up the schedule in South. eastern Alaska. On their way north the College boys stopped in VT ngell and beat the town team there % to 21, continuing their rrn of victories
 The members of the squad arc Tad Loftus, Howard Romig, Jim Gonnors. John Smith, Jack Bos- well, Sam Mover and Donald Me Donald. They played four games in Ketchikan, all of which they won. added another scalp al Wrangell and yet another here yesterday when they won from the Bremen.
 Owing to the early arrival of the Alaska tomorrow forenoon, aboard which the College five departs for the Westward and the return 10 Fairbanks, the game with the Douglas High School. scheduled for tomorrow night has been called off unless an oppor- tunity arises for a game tomor- TOW forenoon.
 Juneau's Hilltoppers will be up against T tough team this even ing when they tangle with. the fast College aggregation. If the locals are playing their best brand of bah they should give the College a hard fight but their chance of ai victory are slim, judging from the game the Fair banks men played yesterday.
 The lineups for tho game have not been announced, but the vis- itors will probably start with about the same lineup as yester- day. For Juneau, Livie and one of the Orme boys will open in the forward positions, Nelson will play center, and Berrgren and Burke will hold down the guard posts.
 A good crowd was on hand to witness yesterdays game between the College and the Bremen and an even larger crowd is antici- pated this evening. Roofing for the locals was deafening at the contest yesterday.
 Dance Tonighi
 In honor of the visiting team and the coach, there will be a special dance immediately after the game this evening. The dance will be held in the lower floor of the A. B. Hall and music is to be furnished by tho Moonlight Serenaders. It is hoped Tn this way to overcome part of the loss that will be experienced by the cancellation of tomorrow's game and at the same time to give local people an opportunity to meet the students from the AL aska College.
