WILL BE A SHORTAGE

Unless the walkout is settled quickly, there will be a shortage of fresh meats, butter. eggs and vege- tables in Juneau. At this time of the year, merchants generally carry short stocks of perishables and meats and owing to no advance notice be- ing given of probable walkout, had nc time to place larger orders than usual. There is sufficient canned goods on hand, it is said, for several weeks.
 If the walkout is not settled within the next several days, the Princess Norah may be the next steamer to arrive in Juneau from the south. She is scheduled to sail from Van couver next Tuesday night and scheduled to arrive here one week from today. The Princess Norah may bring meat and fresh vegetables from Vancouver, but there is an add cd duty to the local cost.

SHIPMENTS FOR JANUARY TAKE
 DECIDED DROP

Alaska commerce took a decided slump last month compared to Jan 1ary. one year ago.
 Shipments for January, 1889 ac- cording to the monthly report issued by Collector o1 Customs James J. Connors, totalled $s59 ,684 compared to January, l938, when the com merce totaled $2,12657l for the month.
 One reason for the slump is that the Kennecott mine has closed. con- sequently there are no copper ship ments.
 Halibut shipments last month were, however. over January, 1888. Last month the total, value of the halibut shipped south was sl24782 while in January, 1888, shipments were valued at only sl05, 5,234
