REPORT OF GRAND JURY
—
L nited Slates District Court
«for the District of Alaska. Div
ision No. I. at Ketchikan,
j Special April 1211 Term.
To the Honorable Robert NY.
[ Jennings. Judge oflhe above en
titled Court:
We. the Grain! Jury sum
moned to attend the special
April 1211 term of the United
Slates District Court for the
[L*.strict .-{ Alaska. Division No.
1, having completed our lab> rs
for the said term and •ovielsided
the busine~s br ight before
[now beg leave So report to the
Ik n* rable Court as follows:
We have been in session S
do>s, and have acted on 22 bind
over cases, have conducted sev
eral other investigations, and
have found 22 True Bilie and
l Net True B i>. We have ex
3' ii cd "2 witnesses and em
ployed one interpreter.
We find that the Federal jail
is in a clean and sanitary con
dition. except that the ventila
tion of the said jail is insuf
ficient. and we would recom
mend that proper facilities for;
a more perfect ventilation be in
t'~ii.ed when she court house,
building is otherwise repaired.!
as herein recommended.
We find that the admiuis
1 ration of justice is consider-;
•il-ly hampered through the in
sufficiency of the accommo
dations at the present court
bouse. The quarters of all the
■ff.eer- during the session ofj
the . :s > je iedly eramp
- i. The p.r.rt:i:between,
the various rooms in the build-;
g L- g simp. y of board and
:n Jr.' way p layered. sound is
readily communicated from one
room to the other, and there
~-em- !. hr- ;:—j>lulely no -e- -
reoy cbout the grand jury -es-’
- ... the present grand jury
m. The ?ame is true of the
; ! : . ry room, from whi>n
v-.ices ordinary conversa-1
. m'-y re iily be heard :n the
.. ...:.g '. jrr.iors. adjoining
rooms, as well as in Ihe jail be-i
■w by the defendant, whose
■ '.e ., be.i.g deliberated upon
the p*e;:l jury.
We are aw re that former
Jf-'ii;d juries have urged upon
the Court an improvement in
court hou-e in thi- partic
. T respect, and we repeal the
former recommei. i of our
: -d* --or, and urgently rec
ramend to your Honor that e:
sufficient sum of money be ex
pended to at least plaster the
present couil house for the pur
pose of preventing sound from
so readily traversing the walls.
The roof of the court house
is also-sadly in need of repairs..
W e find tha t it is urgently
i necessary to erect some build
ing at Wrangell to accomodate
the Commissioner's office, in
order that the records may be
properly protected. At the pres
ent time the books of the Court
and records of the Commission
er and Recorder are kept in a
building which may be char
acterized as a "fire-trap,” and
subjecting the records to a
‘constant menace from the ele
ments. In fact, the building in
which these records are kept
:is so dilapidated that it can
scarcely be said that these ree
■ ords are kept under lock aud
.key and may be readily ab
stracted by any one who has a
!desire to do so.
Dated at Ketchikan. Alaska,
• this 30th, day of April. A. D.

HALIBUT SCHOONER
MONTANA TOTAL LOSS
Sitka, April 28—The halibut
fishing schooner Montana burn
ed yesterday at Redoubt, twelve
miles south of this place. The
schooner is a total loss. The
crew was saved and brought
to this place. The Montana was
insured for 814, 000.
Acting upon a cable request
from Deputy Marshal John God
dell, of Sitka, Collector of
Customs John F. Pugh wired
him to provide maintenance to;
the shipwrecked crew of the
Montana. He also arranged
for transportation to Juneau
for the members of the crew
]on the Georgia, and will cause!
them to be transported to Seat-i
'tie from which point they sail
jed. The Montana is a gasoline
. schooner, i}5 gross and 33 net
■ tons: 73 feet long; 18.5 feet
beam, and carries a crew of 15
men. She was built at Seattle
in 1011.

SURVEY FLEET FOR
ALASKA WATERS
—
The fleet of T. S. geodetic
>urve\ vessels stationed on the1
Pacific Coast will be engaged
[largely this year with work in
Alaskan waters. Of the six
vessels in the fleet the Yukon
is now in the Kuskokwim where;
>he laid up for the winter: the
McArthur will work around
Metlakahtla; the Gedney will
work on the West Coast of
Prince of Wales Island; the
Taku which w intered at Cor-j
dova. will work around Prince !
I
William Sound; the Patterson!
now on the wav from Hawaii, i
v
will go to Unalaska, and the■
Explorer, will put in the season ;
or a part of it around Glacier
bay and the Icy straits section.
Very probably the survey will
be provided with a wire drag
for the work, for the bill is now
before .Congress. This will be [
a distinct advantage in doing
the work and make it absolutely;
reliable when once done. This
drag consists of a sunken wire I
at a depth of 60 feet or any re
quired depth for that matter to
which floats with flags mount
ed are attached. Launches are j
then connected with each end I
of the sunken cable and it is j
towed through the channel or
bay sought to be charted. If an
obstruction is met the flag at
tached to the float is dipped,
seizing notice and then the ob- -
struct ion is properly marked.
Once the waters have been
dragged in this manner they;1
will be made perfeetily safe. ;
