SEWARD, Dec. H8.—Superintendent
Herbert Tozier. who has been In
charge of the Seward division of th>
Ylaska railroad, was summarily re
moved from office yesterday by the
railroad commission. The action of
the board comes as a good deal of n
surprise to Tozler’s friends as It was
not suspected that he was not In good
standing. There Is also considerable
■peculating going on as to the rea
son, which has not been disclosed by
he commission. Tozier was formerly
superintendent of the Alaska North
111 and is also well known in Fair
banks where he resided in the early
lays of the camp.

The great pressure of Ice yester
day afternoon resulted In the tower
ou the caisson of the Alaska Lighter
age Company being thrown down. The
big structure is at present lying on
its side on top of the large Ice heap
piled up on the cement base. From all
appeuruin.es the tower will have to be
replaced by a new structure.
An extra large attendance again

From some unexplained cause the
wireless station at Nulato was put out!
of commission yesterday afternoon and
for a time communication with the
outside by that route was Impossible,
llepuris to the radio this morning do
not give the reason for the occurrence
beyond that a break down occurred.
Communication Is now restored and
■ messages are coming through although
j the plant Is not in first class working
order as yet.
A sudden change of the wind Iasi
evening caused an Immediate abate
ment of the great Ice pressure along i
the water front and by eleven p. m.j
the big gale was practically at an end!
and the temperature rapidly falling
below the zero mark' So far as can
be learned the only damage done was
the breaking In of the bulkhead in the!
rear of the Slmson building and also!
damage to the caisson tower which
necessitated the lowering of the cable. >
The ice piled up a few feet higher’
during the late afternoon forming an
immense ridge along the beach which
in some Instances resiuu assnui uioj
rear of the buildings along the lower
side of Front street.

The true answer has not been dis
covered. however, and the guossers
still have a cbaneo to get that free
pass lo the big’ shovs.
What is said lo be the most remark
able fall in tempeiature ever noted
I nere occuired last evening between
' six and ten p. in. Between the slated
nouis the teinperatuie fell from a
point but sngutly below freezing to
several degiees below zero—a drop of
thir ty odd degrees in about four hours.
owing to the short circuiting of the
wires the city tire alarm system has
been practically out of commisson
since yesterday afternoon up to one
today. Everything Is now working
again, however, due to prompt action
on the part of City Electrician Ber
ger. The storm played havoc with the
telephone lines and it will require
several days labor before all the many
tangles are straightened out. The
long distance lines to the eastward are
still out of order and no communica
tion is possible with Solomon or other
east coast points.
Pile iwu soldiers Suratl and Smith
mtested i uesuay night by Officer
jougneitj on a charge of lighting ana
^ssauiung an officer were turned ovei
.o me federal officials yesterday af
ternoon and were given an immediate
..earing before Juuge Tiawley. The
testimony showed that the men were
ueciuediy combative and tlie officei
; ets compelled lo extreme measures
' m their subjugation. Both pleaded
0uilty to me obaige preferred and weie
senieneed to a period of 36 days
each in the federal jail with an ad
mtional penalty of a twenty-live dollar

That the native baseuah players are
liable lo piove serious contestants for
supreme baseball honors is indicate*
by their having administered a severe
vtefeat to the Northern i-iglus at the
Eskimo gymnasium last nlgnt, Accord
ing to the admissions of several of the
players, the natives put it ail over the
white boys and the score was so one
sided that no one will tell w'hat It
was. The natives have been practic
ing steadily for the past month or
iivu and are really developing into
classy ball players. One member of
the white team ventures the prediction
that with a little more experience the
whites will have to do some hard
llghtng to hold their own with the
dusky blubber eaters.
The Bream theater will show the
eleventh episouo or me Minion Col
lar Mystery tonight, “In the Path of
the Fast Express." Tills Installment
carries a diiect appeal to the intel
ligence of the audience. If you stop
to analyze It, you will find that It pos
sesses that rare quality, magnestism,
with a profound revelation of human
nature in a great crisis that invites
and appeals to your sympathy. Among
the many big scenes tonight are the
train wreck, a pitched battle between
the factions, the reporters perilous pre
dicament courting death In front of a
fast expross train; his rescue and
many others. Tomorrow night the
twelfth episode. Friday afternoon a
grand matinee at two thirty. No show
! Friday night.
