CONNELL JUMPED OVERBOARD
The story of how Mike Cornell
who was brought here from ;h*
Chorniy Cannery last Saturday
mentally deranged, was told this
uer»:ng by Captain Nick M sides
xh. master of the power boat New
England of Bellingham, who broc gh:
Connell in.
It appears that the New England
with a crew of six men arrived
here a few days ago where they
win remain until about the middle
of May when they will proceed to
the Westward where they will en
gage in nshing for the Astcria
Packing Co-'s cannery. a--d wti'e
they were at Chomley. the Captain
was asked to take an insane nan.
to Ketchikan, which be read ly con
sented. On the way in. while four
»-f the crew were kept constantly
- - the watch. Conned manage-! to
get close to the railing of the bout
and suddenly jumped overboard
The Captain turned the boat at
once while a member of the crew
with a gaff caught him by his coat
and held him until the boat was
stopped when he was hauled aboard
He was immediately given a change,
of clothes and from that time unti'
he arrived n p:rt. be was not giv
en a chance to repeat the attempt
at taking his life.

When Mr- Gas pari -* as seen by
The Progressive- Miner he stated
that his company had decided to
increase :*s trade with Alaska
Whfe that end is view, he ton Id

IMPORTANN MAHERS
WERE KEPT OUT
In Saturday’s issue of the Pro
gressive-Miner Mr. J. Pittinger had
something to say about the old
salt water pumping system. He
gave the public some information
in regard to it, but loft very much
oif material importance unsaid. Let
us examine the question a liule
further.
The minutes of ;he Council, of
which Mr. Pittinger was a member
under date of Jar.. 16. 1306. shows
that Mr. Dsdv was authorised to
buy material for the plant. The
minutes of the regular Council
-feeting of October 2, 1907. con
tains the following item:
“The city attorney was in
structed to confer with the Ket
chikan Power Co. in reference
to proper fire service by that
company, and to prepare draft
of contract to be entered into
between said company and the
City.*
Thus, it will be seen that it was
about twenty-one months from the
time the plant was started ano
several months after it was com
pleted before the Council sough?
a contract for power to operate it
and no: until February 3, 1908. or
more than two years after the.
work started, was the work ratified
by the Council- The contract that
was finally entered into could not
hf found among the records, hence
its provisions are not known to the
writer. Its provisions, however
could not have been very binding
when the sawmill shut down
in the fall the pumping plant was
out of commission for lack o:
power, and. to. at "he ver> be
ginning of the witner season when
the pumping plant would be relied
-a supply fire protection while
the fresh water mams n.igr., be
frozen up.
T^e objectionable feature of this
natter was. not so much the theory
of the salt water plant, bat the
fart of blindly spending such a
sum of money in installation with
out first obtaining a contract for
power the year round. It is net
believed that Mr. Pittinger or any
other member of the Council would
have conducted their private af
fairs in such manner.

COl XCILMAN KING’S
ENTERPRISl NG SPIKIT
Councilman King this morning in
order to hasten the work on tho
Clitf Avenue roadway, made a trip
to l..oring for the purpose of secur
ing the right-of-way from Mr
James Kennedy, so that Kennedy
street may be moved northwest to
the line between the Kennedy and
Gibson properties.
This is very important to the
city, as it will leave the lighthouse
property intact and make a much
better street than the former lo
cation.
