The llazelet trail from McCarthy to
the Chisann, which was built during
the winter of 1913 eost considerable
more money thnn was subscribed for
that purpose. As a consequence there
has been a deficit of over $2,100 which
■ has not been adjusted. An effort is
now being made to liquidate this in
debtedness. Vice-President Baxter of
the Alaska Steamship Co. months ago
agreed to contribute $1,000 if the bal
ance were taken care of. Now an ef
fort Is to be made to raise the balance
necessary to wipe out the obligation.
A large part of it was secured on
money borrowed from the bnnk, on a
note signed by various business men.
The trail was only used the first winter
but there Is a feeling that the obliga
tion ought to be wiped out.—Cordova
