|PASSENCERSON NORTHWESTERN
 TRANSFER BRED
Eighty-six People Aboard Disabled Steamer Go
 South on Aleutian

Eighty-six passengers from the disabled steamer Northwestern de- parked from the destroyer TreveI at the Government Dock at s o'clock yesterday afternoon. Seattle bound passengers were transported immediately in waiting taxicabs tc the Aleutian which had been wait ing for them since shortly after 3 o'clock.
 The dock was crowded with Ju- neau people. curious to see the travellers who had been on the steamer when it struck, but in spite of the jam on the dock, there was little confusion as the pas sengers, carrying various bundles and baggage, were directed to the cabs by R. J. McKanna, local agent of the Alaska Steamship Company, and P. B. Coe, Purser from the Northwestern.
 In Good HumOr
 With one or two exceptions, the passengers were in good humor and considered the experience as an adventure. At no time did they consider themselves in any danger and as no baggage or effects were lost or damaged there was nothing disagreeable connected with it other than the discomfort caused by the shock, when the ship struck, the hurried rising and dressing, and the several hours spent in the life boats when the steamer listed.
 Capt. John Livingstone was high ly praised by all of the passengers for the efficiency with which he took hold of the situation and for his cheering and composed man. ner.
 ! After the passengers were trans ported to the steamer Aleutian, where accommodations and dinner awaited them, the baggage was taken down on trucks and the steamer sailed again for the south at 7:30 o'clock.
 Passengers Story
 At 3 o'clock in the morning we were sharply reused when the ship struck with terrific force. We were not thrown from our berths though number of the other passengers said they were. The ship shook frightfully for several seconds and then struck second time" said Mrs. Homer B. Davis, wife of Com mander Davis of Destroy Squadron 4, who with her two children, Patricia and Homer B. Davis, Jr.. were round trip passengers on the Northwestern. The weather seem

First Time in History of U. S., Has So Many Awards
 Been Sought WORK IS TO BE
 STARTED AT ONCE
With New Contracts Ac- cepted, Ships Building,
 Nation Below Quota

WASHINGTON, July 26.- Bids for contracts to build 2l new fighting ships are to be sought by the Navy Department
 Never before have offers on that many naval vessels been sought at the same time. F Besides the bids, the Navy De- partment is, about ready to allot to the Departments own yards six teen more.
 Already under construction are an aircraft carrier, six heavy cruis- CTS, eight destroyers and two sub marines.
 Naval experts figure that even with the addition of all these it will leave the United States farther below the allowed limits when the London treaty expires in 1885 than either Japan or Great Britain.
 If the bids are accepted for the 21 new fighting ships. work will start at once. ~

 IN THIS GIT '
Flier Who Attempte e q World Solo Flight Ar
 rives in Juneau

James Mattern, known as the Smiling" flier, who crashed in Siberia on an attempted world solo flight, arrived in Juneau at Il o'clock last night from Fairbanks and was given as fine an impromptu acclaim by hundreds of citizens and tourists from two steamers. as if he had been successful
 When the seaplane Chichagof scared over the city, in the dark ness, cries went up from all over, There's Ellis" There's Mattern, " and the rush was on for the hangar of the Alaska Southern Air ways. The crush was so great that Manager A. B. Hayes was forced to post a guard at the hangar door and only allow a limited number to enter. Even then hun dreds were packed along the run way float and lining the docks around, and Willoughby Avenue was crowded with humanity and auto mobiles.
 Given Welcome
 Pilot Robert E. Ellis brought the Chichagof down like a feather and it was soon at the hangar. Then Jimmy" appeared and was cheer ed. Then followed Bill Alexander, Tom Abbey and Fred Fetterman, of the original four reliefers from New York City; then came w. M Sasseen, mechanic on the Chicha- gof and lastly, Ellis himself. And he was given a rousing greeting for he has been away with his seaplane since he flew out of Ju- neau for Nome early Monday morning, July 10, with the relief CTS.
 Reception Held
 Mattern and his party went into the private office of the hangar and the crowd poured in to be introduced, Manager Hayes creditably and ably performing this function. And a funny-or rather unique thing happened-even the men took" to Mattern as readily as did the ladies. His smile and cordial, winning ways turned the trick and one of the he-men of the air was enthusiastically greet ed.
