MAY ESTABLISH NEW
ALASKA STEAMSHIP LINE
WITH STRONG BACKING
The Business Chronical of Seattle la
authority for the statement that one
of the great American transcontinen
tal railway lines Is contemplating es
tablishing a line of steamers for the
Alaskan trade. The article does not
disclose the name of the company that
is about to enter the Alaskan trade.
However rumors have been In dr.
culatlon for sometime that vfe may
look out for such an anouncement front
the Hill lines.
The dispatch in tho Business Chron
icle is as follows:
CHICAGO,—Through appreciation of
tire permanent development of Alaska
and with an expressed desire to estab
l'sh itself in the new empire one of the
leading trans-continental railways has
under consideration plans for building
and operating a line of flrst-class mod- '
ern steamships between Puget Sound
and Alaskan ports.
The negotiations have not proceed
od far enough as yet to warrant an
official announcement of the plan, and
Investigations are still being conduct
ed along the lines of the probable profit.
One of the most prominent railway
traffic officials of America will leave
for Seattle to make a personal first
hand study of the situation.
The company takes the position that
the time has come to serve the people
of Alaska with vessels that are equal
to those plying on the Atlantic and that
If this Is not done, more of the pas
senger business which has been drawn
to the Canadian lines because of their
higher class of service will be lost.
One of the main reasons for the step
Is the advantage that the Initial lines
give In handling the tourist business.
It Is claimed that In a majority of
cases If the line selling the ticket Is a
Canadian line, that line will get the j
through transcontinental haul In ad- j
ditton.

COMPANY WILL
BUILD ALASKA
TOURIST HOTELS
In one of the recent articles on Alas
ka Frank Q. Carpenter, the world
renowned writer, who visited Fair
banks a year ago, says that a company
is being organized at the present time
to establish big hotels at Skagway,
Dawson, Fairbanks and Seward.
These will be for the purpose of ac
commodating in first class style tfco
tourists whom they hope to steer
northward. The plan Is to advertise
the trip down the Yukon and up to
Fairbanks atid thence to the coast over
the government railroad, with a stopoff
of a few days in each four places above
mentioned so that the visitors may
study conditions and see ail the sights.
While Mr. Carpenter,s article does ’
not state definitely as to when this j
plan Is to be put into execution, the
intimation is that the hotels willl be ,
established as soon ns the railroad is,
completed.
The company is to work in con
junction with the transportation com
panies ahd even Induce the government
to advertiso the beauties of the trip
ever the railroad from tho Interior to
the.coast,
