With the return of the Kenai from Sitka at 8:30 o'clock this morning, it was learned that the vessel had been slightly damaged when she struck a submerged ob- ject in the Sitka harbor Sunday.
 This marks the second minor marine accident over the last week end, as the motorship Northland, enroute from Sitka to Juneau, struck a sandbar in Whitestone Narrows. The Northland was not damaged and is now on her reg ular run to Seattle.
 The Kenai, also, it was reported today. will make her regular run to sitka and way ports, leaving the Pacific Coast dock at her us ual departure hour, 6 o'clock to- morrow night.
 According to a report of Capt. Charles Stone, the Kenai struck either submerged rock or Jog while reversing away from the Sitka dock.

 John Davidson, Chichagof; Ann Gaven and Bessie Reedsr, Tena- kee.
