SLIGHTLY DAMAGED
Ti’lie I.alouche was but slightly
damaged when she hit a rook in
Icy straits and the pumps have im
rouble in keeping the water down.
The boat will take only 1,000
tons of ore south, part from I he j
Kllamar mine and part from I.a- I
touche, as il is thought best not
to overload her for fear of strain- |
ing' the damaged plates. She!
brought no freight for Valdez.
MAIL FROM FAIRBANKS BE
HERE TOMORROW NIGHT
The .McIntosh stage will arrive
here tomorrow with aim pounds
of interior mail, as it is due to j
reach Ptarmigan Drop tonight.'
.The stages leaving here Ibis af
lernoon "ill bring the mail into
! town, l ive passengers arc also
j on the stages coming to Valdez.
Electrical Entanglements.
A very iulrirale problem is iu
| s olved in the suii by the Alaska
!< iastiuenu .Milling rum pans
(against the Alaska-Treadwel!
itiohl Mining company and a-soei
(ale companies.
j The point involved arises user
the delivers of power from the
tSheep creek power station of de
fendants, according to contract
with plaint ill' in the case. The
complaint sets forth that the de
fendant company, since Christmas
eve, has failed to furnish the giv
en amount of power guaranteed
by the contract, or enough to start
the machine!" which consumes
the power.
it, is alleged t hat a contrivance
known as an automatic circuit
breaker has been Introduced by
tiie defendant companies, which
does not withstand the momen
tary surge which results tit ttie
starting of machinery that con
sumes less than the given amount
of power guaranteed under the
[contract. When the connection is
broken, defendants refuse to al
low their servants on the premis
es of the power station to renew
such connections; compelling the
information to be sent to the of
lice in Treadwell, whereupon a
man would bo sent across the
channel in a small boat to renew
the connection.
The defendants set up tile an
swer that they are delivering the
current as per contract and that
the momentary surge requiring
power in excess of the contract
should not he required of them;
that the breaking of the current
is caused by overload of the plain
tiff’s machinery.
The Mail Moving.
j Ami so are tile movies at I he
jorpheum. All new ones. Special
change again on Saturday at mat
I iand in I he evening.
After a warm contest Itosy lias
i been elected chief of the court

out by receiving the solid vole of
jllie occupants of the federal ho
I tel. kept by mine host Harvey Sul
I li\ an.
j Alvali Karnes, chief mail clerk
| of Ibis division, was tendered
j quite a reception by the business
