of the fire department arrived at
the scene the entire building was
in flames. Nothing was saved but
one chest of clothing. The building
and stock were completely Destroy
ed. The loss is partially covered by
insurance and Mrs. Cramer believes
that she will be able to put up an
other building and start in business
again. The insurance adjustor is ex-
pected to arrive from Seattle on the
Alaska due in port here next Mon
day.
While the origin of the fire is not
known, it would seem to have been
caused by defective wiring.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE FAILS TO GET
lSDAY EXTENSION OF MINK SEASON

The Wrangell Chamber f Com
merce held it's first lunc con of
the year since the election of new
officers at the Wrangell Hotel last
Wednesday, with R. w. ]. Reed,
presiding.
Secretary James Nolan read vol
luminous correspondence on a num-
Der of subjects for consideration by
the chamber.
E. NJ. Silvers of Seattle, pub
licity agent for King Baird, air
pilot, wrote that Baird desires to
bring the only autogiro on the Pa
cific coast to Alaska for a two
months tour. This autogiro, he
said, proved to be the major attrac-
ton at the Portland Automobile
Show which drew a record-break-
ing crowd of over $4,000 paid ad-
missions.
The cooperation of the chamber
was asked to the extent of selling
25 rides at $40 apiece. The plan is
contingent upon the acceptance of
this same cooperation by Ketchikan,
Juneau and Petersburg. To satisfy
insurance regulations it is neces-
sary for Baird to have a cleared
space approximately 700 by 800
feet The tour is planned during
the months of February and March.
The letter occasioned a number
of facetious remarks from those
present it being generally agreed
that Wrangell citizens are too
much up in the air now; that the
urgent need is for something to
bring us down to firm ground un-
der our feet In the end no action
was taken other than to agree to
cooperate with Mr.. Baird in any
possible way on his Alaskan tour
except to sell $3.50 worth of auto
giro rides in advance of his coming.
Harbor Dredging
The following letter from Dele
gate Wickersham to the secretary
Yves read:
81 have your letter of the 18th
inst, asking me to use my best
efforts to have the Wrangell har-
Dor dredging project included in
any measure that might be pre-
scented to Congress at the present
session, You may be sure that l
will do what can along this
line, as 1t is a much needed i'm

be a benefit to the town of Wran-

the Chinese-Japanese conflict at "a

AMPLE FISH
RUNS IN 1888
ARE EXPECTED

WASHINGTON, Jan. II - The
Department of Commerce today an
| nounced that the Alaska Division of
the Bureau of Fisheries reported
substantial runs of salmon are ex-
pected in territorial waters during
the coming season. But 1t was not
SO certain what the pack would be.
That, it was pointed out by Dem
mis- Winn, Alaska agent of the Blu
reau, depends upon the Gamers. He
is confident that ample salmon will
be available for them.
Packers Going Slow
Packers are going slow in their
plans for next seasons program,
according to advices received In this
city from prominent Seattle can
nerymen and officials of the AS
ISOLATION of Pacific Fisheries, re-
ports the Alaska Empire. There are
said to be too many uncertainties
in the offing to make financing OPP
erations other than intricate just
now.
The major handicap is found In
price conditions which are so low
that there is no hope for profit for
the bulk of the pack. it was de-
clared. While there is no great
quantity of canned fish carried over
now, and the market will be almost
entirely bare of pinks and chums
before the new pack reaches the
trade, the Japanese bugaboo ia
keeping figures down to a record
low.
The Japs haven't marketed in ex-
cess of $4,000 cases of pinks to
date in this country, and probably
haven't got any great quantity on
hand available for export, but brok-
ers are quoting them without limit
ing the buyers as to quantity. De-
preciated Japanese money makes it
possible for them to ship fish into
the United States much cheaper
than local packers can produce the
same variety of salmon.
Fear New Regulations
Uncertainty over the stability of
the regulations for the current year
has also been one of the deterrants
to the adoption of final plans by
the packers. Fear has been express
ed that the appointment of a new
Commissioner of Fisheries following
President Roosevelts inaugur-
alton might result in sudden
changes in regulations issued by
Commissioner Henry OMalley with
results more costly than the pack
ers could afford to bear.
For that reason, most if not all OF
the local packers are urging that
Mr.. O'Malley be retained in his
present post at least until the close
of the commercial fishing season
next fall, No Indication has been
given of what the outcome of their
movement will be.
Await Legislature
Then this year is Alaska's Legis-
lative year. The territory is depend
ent upon the salmon canning indus
try for most of it's revenues, and the
tax policies of the Legislature ia
of considerable Importance to the
packers, who as usual, will watch
the proceedings of the 1898 season
with keen interest.
Most of them realize that the fl
nancial status of the Territory is
not as bright as it was during the
sessions of the past decade or more,
but they hope that the Legislature,
realizing the extreme plight of the
industry, due to the depression and
invasion of the local markets by the
Japanese, will at least not raise
taxes and, If it is at all possible,
will try to give them some relief
from burdensome rates.

It's a grand escape powder

it has caused a Washington
colored women to completely
evaporate from prison" as the in
ventor promised.
At least local authorities can
find no trace of the woman in
Jail here, so now the Prince can
use it on himself.
Maude Roberts, colored, Of
Philadelphia, went to the Prince
and paid him $50 for the powder
to get her sister out of the Dis
trict Jail, where she was held on
a murder charge, the woman said.
The Prince was arrested follow
ing the sale, charged with obtain
ing money under false pretenses.
Sentenced to six months, the
judge advised him to use some of
his escape powder to prove it's
worth.
Washington authorities said
they are holding no colored

on a murder charge, and perhaps
the powder did work-juSt per-

''ATONEMENT'
IS TOPIC Of
SCIENTISTS

Doctrine Of Atonement" is the
subject of the Sermon in
all the Churches of Christ, Scien.
tist, tomorrow. The Golden Text
is from Corinthians 5:18: "All
things are of God who hath recon.
ciled us to himself by Jesus Christ,
and hath given to us the ministry
Of reconciliation" Among the
citations which comprise the Les.
son-Sermon is the following from
the Bible: Therefore if any
many be in Christ, he is a new
creature: old things are passed
away: behold all things are be-
come new. Now then we are am.
bassadors for Christ, as though
God did beseech you by us: we
pray you in Christ's stead, be ye
reconciled to God" The Lesson.
Sermon also includes the follow.
ing passage from the Christian
Science Textbook, Science and
Health with Key to the Scrip
lures" by Mary Baker Eddy: The
atonement of Christ reconcileS
man to God, not God to man; for
the divine principle of Christ Is
God, and how can God propitiate
Himself? Christ is Truth, which
reaches no higher than itself. The
fountain can rise no higher than
it's source. Christ, Truth, could
concilitate no nature above his
own, derived from the eternal.
Love. It was therefore Christ's
purpose to reconcile man to God,
not God to man." (Page 49,

RAP
MILK CODE .:

Refusal of independent milk pro-
ducers and distributors here to &C.
cept pricing provisions of pro-
posed milk code for the Washing
ton area was characterized today
by officials of the Agricultural
Adjustment Administration as "be-
ing in lines with our policy Of
hearing all sides Of the matter"
No code for this territory, it was
explained, can be adopted until all
factors in the industry have been
heard and differences ironed out.
The statement came as a result
of a clash between independents
and affiliates of the National
Dairy Products Corporation and
the Independent Thompson Dairy,
which desire to lay down three
prices to producers, the highest
being % cents for grade one milk,
an increase of cents over the
present value.
The Independents, favoring a
one-price system, declare the
larger manufacturing distributors
would gain too many advantages
under the agreement, since practi-
cally all they buy is third-grade
milk for which the farmer would
have to take any price he could
get.
Efforts to get opposing factions
together will be made unofficially
next week by Assistant Corpora
ton Counsel Elwood H. Seal, Spe-
cial Investigator for the Senate
"nilk trust" committee.
