REASONS GIVEN FOR
ADVANCED RATES
TO WHAT EXTENT KETCHIKAN
WILL BE AFFECTED BY
THE INCREASE.
As r. result of the European war,
> .yj he Seattle Post-Intelligencer
of she 22nd, which has affected.
Other directly or indirectly, the
skipping the entire world by its
enormous demands for tonnage of
< Tory type and rig. the steamship
dines operating between Seattle end
ports in Southeastern and South
western Alaska, effective April I.
H. C. Cantelow, general freight
agent of the Pacific Coast Steam
hip Company, with headquarters
at San Francisco, who has been in
Seattle the past few days. Tuesday
announced his company’s new
freight rates from Seattle to ports
in the North, which will go into ef
fect about April 1
The new tariffs show an advance
of 12 a ton on genera! merchandise
from Seattle to all ports in South
eastern Alaska. The rate from Se
attle to Ketchikan trill be raised
from IS to IS a ton, Seattle to
Juneau from 54 to 56 a ton and
Seattle to Skagway from IS to $2
a ton.
“There are other rates lower and
higher than the general merchan
dise rates, and they will be pro
portionately increased,” said Mr.
Caiste’ow. “Some items in the tar
iffs, however, will not be raised at
all. The increase which our com
pany has decided to make is sub
stantially less than that reported
under consideration a few days ago.
Will Include Wharfage
“To mee: a popular demand it has
been decided to hereafter include in
the rate the Seattle wharfage
charge for Alaska freight, which is
-50 cents, a ton. That is, to quote
a lump sum for wharfage and
freight on allAlaska shipments. The
rates we have decided to make are
less radical than those anticipated.”
Mr. CanteSow explained that in
creased cost of operation, high char
ter values, increased cost of ship
repairs, higher prices for al! lines
of supplies, and the steadily increas
ing value of ship property, had
forced his company to advance the
rates to Alaska.
Following the announcement of
Mr. Cantelow of the advance in
freight rates Tuesday came the
statement of Harry Brandt, genera!
agent of the passenger department
of the Pacific Coast Steamship Co-,
that the line had also decided to
raise passenger fares between Seat
tle and ports h> Southeastern Al
aska.
Passenger Fares Increased.
Mr. Brandt announced that ef
fective about April cabin passenger
fares will be advanced $2 by his
company from Seattle to Ketchi
kan and $3 front Seattle to Juneau
and Skagway.
Steerage rates will be advanced
11 from Seattle to Ketchikan ar.d
12 from Seattle to Juneau and
Skagway.
The cabin passenger fares of
the Pacific Coast Steamship Com
pany, Seattle to Ketchikan, will be
raised from 122 to $24: Seattle to
Juneau, from $25 to $28, and Seat
tle to Skagway, from $30 to $33.

AND OH, PRAY FOR ME
ADAM AND EVE OF MAINE
THREATEN TO END LIVES
BOSTON. March 20.—Several days
ago Mrs, Olive Elliott Estes—the
live of the Maine woods—received
a letter from her husband, who
played Adam to her Eve when the
two went into the woods in bathing
suits end lived there sixty days last
fall, in which he said he intended to
commit suicide.
The futile search for trace of her
husband since the letter was receiv
ed was followed by the receipt of
a letter from Mrs Estes in which
she declares she will “do the same
! as he has done.”
Getchell and Hosmer, Estes' at
torneys at Lewiston, say they have
failed to find any trace of Estes
since* the receipt of his “suicide
note.”
The Adam and Eve of the Maine
I woods hoped, when they enlarged
■ from thmj^d*-imposel|feordeal. that
\-audevi!3jM|k|rJng . p^urvs and
rew^papB^W^r of relfctn! would
be show^^S^^n thejj^ They had
; hoped for substantial returns for
their hardships and sufferings, but
these did not materialise. Their ex
periences were described in stories
in the Blade while they were in the
snowy woods.
The letter from Esdes, in which
he said he intended to kill himself,
read:
"My dear loving wife—For love
of you I do this. For my sake, do
r.ot cry. I have thought of this for
some time. Last Sunday I heard
a preacher on the street say that
some found rest in the water.
“Oh. God. if we could have got
the money which we tried so hard
to get. W e could have been happy
then. Tell my friends that I thank
them in God’s name for what they
have done for us.
“Do not tell dear old papa this,
will you. for it would be better for
him not to know.
“I cannot say any more- Forgive.
You will pray, and I hope your life
now on will be better.
"Farewell, my dear. God bless
you. And oh, pray for me.”
