Even at that, with three ropes on the ship, 1t you'd lift from the ground as far as the oleo struts would permit. The a ? thing that saved the ship was ahe fact that the skis were buried ear under the snow and frozen in. Ne had no sleeping bag or blankets and We could not lie down in the ship. We could not sleep or keep warm. During the storm we were for ed to use up our fuel for cooking and trying to keep warm, so that when the snow packed down and got hard we had no fuel with which to take off.
 After being there six days Pilot Blunt of the Pacific International Airways and Marshal Stanley J. Nichols of McGrath flew over and dropped off note. It blew over into the trees and we could not find it. In. the afternoon they flew over afiain and dropped off provisions, but they also landed off about three hundred yards in the trees, and we could not find them either, although we spent about ten hours looking in the deep snow As we had no snowshoes, this was vary difficult work.

Eleven days, for the most part in the cabin of their stalled airplane, unable to do, much. to relieve them selves, and with rations getting very Iow--that was the experience of Brothers G.. J. Feltes, and M. La peyre, of the Holy Cross Mission, who arrived here last evening with Charlie, Goebal and Charlie O'Hal- loran, both of whom left Takotna last Sunday to go to the relief of the stranded fiers.
 The story is best told, in the words of Brother Reltes, who. said:
 "We left McGrath for Holy Cross on November p. When just about over Crater Mountain our motor slowed down about two hundred revo- iutions. There was large open. field below us and we circled over it at about four thousand. feet to see if the motor would pick. up, again. When it. did not, we decided to land in the large field and check it up and then fly on. We landed in a normal land the snow was three feet deep and very soft, SO, that when we stopped the skis were fourteen inches under the snow. We checked up on the motor and found little trouble with one of the air valves, which would have caused the motor to slow down. We corrected this, but by this time it was dark and we had to get ready te spend the night. In the meantime a. fierce storm came up, and with the excessive high wind,. at times as much as sixty or seventy miles an hour, we had great difficulty in tying, down the ship strong enough so, that

WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.-The Bu- rean of Fisheries comedies that the Alaska salmon industry has not been affected ny the general business de- pression that seems to be prevalent over the world. A tentative estimate of. the pack for the. 1881 season to September shows that the total to that date was 5,335,4 ,461 cases, as against 4,839, 500 cases in -93O to August 31, and 5,O32,236 for the en- tire season of 1850.
 It. is of interest to note that the output of red salmon in 1881 is all most double that of the preceding year and also shows a fair increase over the average for the five-year peniod. This was due primarily to the splendid runs in the important Bristol Bay region, particularly on the east side of the bay, where there were good runs and escapements in 1926, the brood year for & large pro- portion of this seasons fish. Excel lent runs of pink salmon entered the waters of Southeastern Alaska, with the result. that despite curtailed Op- erations the production of this spe- eies was we'll above the average for recent :yents, although it was sub stantially less> than the 19S0 output.
 Comparing the preliminary ngures for 1881 with the average for the five-year period from 1926 to 1880, by districts, both. Southeastern and Wes- tern Alaska show gains of approxi- mately 6 per cent, while for Central Alaska there is a decline of II per cent. It haslater been estimated that tho total.

Skins of fur-bearing land animals to the number of 4O4, ,547, and valued at $2,128,248, were reported from Alaska in 1880, a report from the Alaska Game Commission to the Bio logical Survey, U. s. Department of Agriculture, shows. This is $2,385,- 715 less than the value of the 1929 shipments, although 197,245 more pelts were exported. The smaller re turn for 1880 resulted from general decline in the market value of indi- vidual furs. The report is based on, the statements that fur shippers are required to file with agents of trans portation companies or with postmas- ters handling the shipments, who in turn must forward them to the Alas ka Game Commission.

packages were presented for mailing,
and they probably could be identified.
1t may be possible to trace the ma.
terials with which the deadly con-
trivances were made. Today upwards
OF one hundred inspectors are at work
on the case.
Not for long time has there been
such an outrage. Mail bombs were not
uncommon some years ago, particularly
during the prevalence of the Black
Hand crimes, and many lives were lost
through this method of murder. The
law against the mailing Of explosive
material Is explicit and the penalty for
SO doing is severe. Unfortunately the
violator OF that law Is almost invariably
beyond reach-is not, in fact, known to
exist until his major crime is committed
through the explosion OF the package
The presence Of such materials in the
mails Is menace to those who handle
them in transit. often, as in this present
case, the victims are others than those
to whom they are being sent. There is
no more villainous crime than that OF
murder by the parcel post, and every
effort should be bent to the end of
finding those who handed In the six
