With two UO-ton locomotives. 12
flat cars ami six dump cars tor this

Crown, Capt. J. Parks, arrived last
night from the inlet and is discharg
ing at the clock.
The vessel lett Balboa, canal zone,
March 11 for Alaska with 4.000 tons,
measured, and the barge St. David in
tow carrying 2,500 tons. The entire
cargo was consigned to the Alaskan
Engineering Commission and included
ears, locomotives, steam shovels and
other equipment.
After discharging the deck load on
scows at the head of the inlet. Capt.
Parks decided that as his ship was
flat bottomed he would run her up on
the mud at high tide and put the bal
ance of the cargo ashore direct.
When the tide went out there was
400 feet of land between the ship and
water and the officers of the S. S.
Alaska reported the freighter hard
and fast ashore, which was true*, but
not so serious as it sounded. After
discharging he had no trouble in float
ing off at high tide.
When she leaves here the Turret
crown will go to Valdez and take ore
for the iiranby smelter.

STATION MEN BUSY
NORTH OF SUSITNA
✓
The entire section on the main line
toward Fairbanks north of Matanuska
between the Little Susitna river and
a point less than two miles south of
Willow creek is covered by station
crews. North of Willow creek eight
gangs are on their stations. All sta
tion men are at present engaged on
commission force work building a
wagon road between the limits of
their sections. It is planned to have
the road open to teams as far as Wil
low creek by May 10.
The wagon road bridge at the Lit
tle Susitna crossing is practically com
pleted, and the railroad pile trestle
at this point is better than 50 per cent
complete.
It is now necessary to use wagons j
for freighting, as the snow has dis
appeared except for a small stretch in
the vicinity of Kashwitna.
The freight teams are at work tak- j
mg ties from the Little Susitna river
and distributing them along tin* grade.
