Admiral Liner Delayed at Yakutat—
Pacific Coast Businessmen Be En
tertained by Commercial Ass’n.
The Admiral liner, Sampson, is ex
pected to reach Valdez some time
tomorrow afternoon from the south
with a large number of Pacific coast
businessmen on the ship, who are
making the round trip on the Samp
son as the guests of President H. F.
Alexander. The boat Was delayed un
loading freight at Yakutat and at Ka
talla and is expected to reach Cordova
this evening.
The Valdez Commercial Associa
tion have planned for the entertain
ment of . the passengers on the Samp
son and the rooms of the Tlllikum
Club have been loaned to the asso
ciation for the use of the members
on that afternoon and evening. A
Texas punch so mixed as to !be “just
neutral” has been brewed. The bran
dy in the punch will offset the 40
year-old Bourbon, the White Rock
will neutralize the Mumm’s Extra Dry,
the sugar will be offset by a little
lemon, and so on down the list so that
the punch will be absolutely harm
less, but delightful. It will be brewed
by an artist.
The entertainment committee, con
sisting of Senator Millard, J. M. La
throp, Sam Blum, Edwin Eckern and
C. E. Bunnell, will meet the boat and
escort the visitors to the Tillikum
Club.
Mr. Lathrop, of the Valdez Dock
company, has wired to President Alex
ander requesting him to arrange the
itinerary so that the Sampson will
reach Valdez in the afternoon and
remain during the evening.
