! that more than 500% mere air

will not be a passenger on the

The U. S. Coast Guard Cutter
Duane, with 128 officers and men
aboard, left Dutch Harbor this
morning for Bering Sea points.
The vessel is under the command
of J. H. Cornell. The Duane has
j an amphibian plane aboard and
upon reaching the Bering Sea
ice pack the plane will' do
scouting service, locating open
leads in the ice so that steamers
enroute to Nome will not be de
layed longer than necessary on
their voyage to Nome. It is high
ly probable that the amphibian
plane may make Nome a visit be
; fore the arrival of the cutter,
possibly to gas up while hunt
ing for leads near shore.

Big Passenger List
406 passengers are now en
route to Nome aboard the SS
; Columbia of the Alaska Line,
j
made up as follows: 175 cabin
| and 231 steerage passengers.
| This represents one of the larg
! est passenger lists of any vessel
; coming to Nome in the past sev
| eral years. It must also be re
i membered that airplanes have in
; the past 30 days brought to
i Nome some hundred or more peo
| pie from the States, and more
j arriving on every plane. In look
: ing over the names of those
! coming on the SS Columbia in
i today’s issue, it will readily be
seen that most of them are sour
doughs returning to their annual
gold mining enterprises and oth
er vocational pursuits.
Some difficulty was encounter
ed in obtaining the steerage pas
sengers of the Columbia, for to
day’s issue, but we are assured
by the Associated Press that the
steerage list will be forthcoming
later, possibly in time for Fri
day’s issue of the Nugget. For
the benefit of those who may be
interested, the telegram to The
Nugget stated that the freighter
Sutherland did not carry passen
gers.
