RIGGS MADE
BIG CUT IN HIS
SEASON’S PLANS
\KN ANA.—(Special.)—All requi
sitions for railroad material which are
not absolutely necessary in construc
tion work between Nenana and the
coal fields to the south are to be can
celed. There will be no larger work
ing organization, if as large, than was
f used last summer. Those are the two
mandates which have been issued
from the office of Thomas Riggs, jr„
member of the Alaskan Engineering
» Commission, at Nenana.
It will be necessary, according to
Riggs, that the commission cut every
expense possible in an effort to tide
itself over on the small amount ot
money appropriated for its uses dur
ing the dying hours of the last con
gress. He hopes that more money
will be made available at an early
date by the special session of con
gress.
Riggs was notified in an official
wire of the passage of the special ap
propriation measure, carrying with it
the sum of $3,000,000 with which to
carry on construction work on the Al
aska railroad when the main appro
^ priation was blocked. The message
was merely a matter of information,
as it said nothing regarding how
much of the $3,000,000 will be made
available for construction work on the
* interior end of the railroad.
It is thought probable that what lit
tle of the fund the interior will get
will be spent between Nenana and the
coal fields to the south. For it is ab
solutely necessary that Nenana and
the coal fields be connected during the
coming summer if such a thing is pos^
sible. After that the matter of con
struction work between Fairbanks
and Nenana will be taken ud.
Commissioner Riggs is feeling very
blue over the entire matter. He had
t made plans to do a large amount of
work during the coming summer, but
as things now are, he is “up in the
air,” so to speak.
As a consequence of the smallness
of the appropriation, it will be neces
MAY COIN ALL
MEXICAN MONEY
AT U. S. MINT
PHILADELPHIA, March 15.—
Financial agents of the Mexican gov
ernment, it was learned here today,
have made inquiry at the Philadelphia
mint regarding prices and facilities
for minting Mexican gold coins.
Within the last ten days a representa
tive of Stallforth & Co., New York
bankers, asked the price per 1,000
pieces for coining cinco pesos, fivo
dollar gold pieces. He was told the
mint could manufacture them at the
rate of 60,000 pieces a week. The
price was not made public.
Authority to do the work must
come from the director of the mint at
Washington. It was said at the mint
that unofficial information had reach
ed there that master dies, made at the
, Philadelphia mint for the Mexican
I government 10 years ago. are on their
! way here.
It was reported that Rafael Nieto,
; of the Mexican treasury# is bringing
$20,000,000 in gold bars here, but
nothing was known of this at the
j mint
S3ry that the working organization of
the commission in the interior be held
down to the minimum. There will,
therefore be no larger organization
than last year.
It will also be necessary to cit
down on requisitions. Most of the
working material ordered will be
brought in as contemplated, as will
supplies, but the requisitions for ac
tual construction material will prac
tically all be canceled, as far as this
summer is concerned.

BLUM TO REBUILD

VALDEZ. — (Special.) — Meyer
Blum arrived on the Alaska^ from a
business trip to the states and has
assured a representative of the Pros
pector that the firm would rebuild this
spring, and that work would start
i just as soon as the weather conditions
i would permit. This sets at rest a
rumor that has been circulated here
of late that the company had changed
its plans about erecting a store build
ing here to replace the handsome
i structure destroyed by fire last Jan
uary. Blum states that the plans are
; not yet complete, and he is in no par
i ticular hurrfr as to this part, as work
