ALASKA WILL BE
Kansas City, Alaska Steamship Com
pany's New Klner, Visits Val
dez for the First Time.
The big steamer Kansas City,
which was recently purchased by the
Alaska Steamship company from the
Portland-San Francisco Steamship
company, for service in the South
western Alaskan trade, reached Val
dez last evening on her initial trip
to the north.
The steamer is making a trip as a
freighter, having been pressed into
service immediately after her arrival
at Puget Sound from the south, ow
ing to the strong demand for freight
space to Southwestern Alaskan ports,
especially for Anchorage.
The announcement that the Kan
sas City was to be christened the
Alaska caused many Valdez citizens
to greet the steamer on her first ap
pearance in Valdez harbor and the
officials of the steamer kindly afford
ed every opportunity for an inspec
tion of the ship.
The dimensions of the Kansas
City show that she is the largest ves
sel in the Alaskan trade. She is 333
feet long, 25 feet wide and a depth
of hold of eighteen and one-half feet.
At present the steamer has accommo
dation for nearly five hundred pas
sengers, having three berths to each
stateroom.
Before leaving San Francisco the
steamer was converted into an oil
burner. She has six boilers and made
the trip from Seattle to Cordova in
a fraction less than four days.
The Kansas City brought one hun
dred tons of freight for local mer
chants and one hundred and fifty
tons of coal for Fort Liscum. The
coal will be discharged when the
steamer returns from the westward.
When the Kansas City returns to
Puget Sound from Alaska she will
go into drydock to be remodelled for
the Alaska trade, as the Alaska
Steamship company intends to make
her the finest steamer on the run.
The passenger service on the Alaska
run demands better accommodation
than on the Portland-San Francisco
run and the staterooms will be re
modeled and converted into two
berth rooms. Every department is to
receive attention and when she re
turps to the north as the Alaskan
she will be worthy of the name.
Captain Gus Moud, who has had
command of the steamer Jefferson
for years, is captain on the Kansas
City. Captains Tom Moore and C. P.
Taffe are the pilots. The other offi
cers are: James Lankin, purser; H.
C. Stolsburger, freight clerk; D.
Spencer, chief engineer; D. Miller,
first assistant engineer, and Carter
and Cross, respectively second and
third assistants; John Burns, one of
thp best known men along the Alas
kan coast is first mate.
Next Star Attractions.
The next star attractions at The
Liberty Theatre will be: “The Pit,”
with Wilton Lackaye in the lead;
“Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch,”
Weber and Fields in “Old Dutch,” all
five reel pictures.
