Cables for Space on the Santa Ana
E. F. Heck has cabled to the
A. P. X. Co. from Paris requesting
that reservation of space he made
for him on the company's steamer
Santa Ana, -ailing June 10, for 2o
head of horses. Beyond this and
the fact that the expedition will
land at some point on Cook inlet
or Resurrection hay, the company
Is not advised as to Mr. Heck's
mission.
It is thought he is leading a par
ty of European hunters into the
[Cook inlet country, or that he is
heading an expedition up the Shu
thitna or some oilier large tributary
jof the inlet. Each year Old World
hunters of note, in numbers, cross
the Atlantic to the wilds of Alaska,
u.-ually to the Cook inlet region,
in search of game, large and small,
i They lagan coming over a decade
ago anil every year witnesses a
greater number of sportsmen. Not
lowly European, hut American
hunters try the Cook inlet sport.
