Salmon Fortune
Growing At
Seattle Piers

SEATTLE. up - In the vast
labrinth of Salmon Terminus, Inc,
at pier "a, sweating longshoremen
began piling up a fortune this
week.
They were piling up cases of
Alaska canned salmon, brought in
by the historic old gold ship"
Victoria. The season is just get
ting started; the tiers of salmon
cases are only in the formative
stage. but before the season ends,
there will be from two to three
million cases stored in pier "a and
pier %.
The Victoria. commanded by
Capt. Adolph Danielson, was un-
loading Monday and Tuesday the
second load of any consequence of
the current season-some $4,000
cases, including halves and tails,
from Prince William Sound. The
"Vic" also brought in 5000 cases
of CLAIMS from Cordova.
First shipment was discharged
last week from the SIS. Abigail
Adams. Reports are that the Cor
dova and Prince William Sound
area had its heaviest run of red
salmon in seven years. The Adams
and the Victoria brought down
the bulk of this pack, according
to 2nd mate Manuel Carames of
the Victoria.
Such loads as the two ships had,
however, are slight compared
with the cargoes of 100000 and
100000 cases that will be coming
down later in the season from
