JUNEAU STORY ABOUT
BOWEN IS UNFOUNDED.
Mystery Deepens About that Man
Who is Said to Represent
Secretary Lane.
E. Z. Bowen did not come here to
take any position or anything else
with the Government Engineering
commission. The Gateway yesterday
printed a story taken from the Juneau
Empire in which it was stated that
Mr. Bowen came to conduct the com
missariat department of the railroad
construction work. It is also stated
that Mr. Boweti is a personal friend
of Secretary Lane. Mr. Bowen denies
the first allegation but pleads guilty j
to the second indictment. He came on
the same boat as Mr. Smoot who was
also accused of being connected with
the government in some respect, par
ticularly as representative of Secre
tary .Lane. Some man came on that
boat to represent the secretary of the
Interior department and we may yet
discover him if we can only keep up
the guesses. One thing is certain,
and that is that Mr. Smoot takes an

that he knows Secretary Lane rather
intimately. On the other hand Com

SHIP THAT MAY HAVE
BEEN BOUGHT BY A. S. S
It is reported that the Alaska
Steamship Company has purchase l
the liner City of Pueblo, from the
Pacific Coast S. S. Co., for use in the
Alaskan trade. This new acquistion
to its fleet will be placed on the
Southwestern Alaska route with the
Alameda, Mariposa and North
western.
The City of Pueblo is one of the
famous vessels of the Pacific Coast.
She was built at Philadelphia in 18*1,
and was a sister ship of the Umatilla
and the Walla Walla the latter of
which was wrecked several years ago.
Originally they were colliers, and
were operated by the Pacific Coast S.
S. Co. between Puget Sound and San
Francisco. Later they were converted
into passenger ships, and operated as
passenger vessels on the same route.
The City of Pueblo was the fastest
vessel on the San Francisco route be
fore the Congress and President were
put on that run.
vThe City of Pueblo is an iron
steamship of 2,(>23 gross and 1,712 net
tons. 320.6 feet long, 38.6 feet beam
and carries a crew of 81 men. She
is equipped for both passenger and
freight.

; STRIKE ENDED ON THE CREEKS.
FAIRBANKS, July 21.—Last night
and this morning the railroad traiiu
and auto cars were full of Russians
returning to work on the creeks. The
j strike is broken undoubtedly and from
now on the mines will have full crews.
But one serious result is f«*lt and that
will be a curtailment of the output
this year for the time of operating
is reduced one-fifth by the reduction
from ten to eight hours a Way.
Some of the mines arc still work
ing ten hours and will continue to do
so unless forced to do otherwise by
the law. They are low grade proper
ties which it is claimed with sonio
show of reason cannot he worked on a
shorter day basis or else are wet
mines where pumps have to be kept
in operation.
Some of the Russians continue to
go Outside over the trail in small
groups so that the total number leit
in here will be reduced considerably
by the first of the month.—(News
