SOLVING SUPPLY
PROBLEM NORTH
OF MATANUSKA
—
The wagon road beyond the Little
Susitna river has been graded as far
as Camp 195, and loads of 3000 pounds
are being hauled. Much corduroying
! will have to be done before extensive
freighting can be accomplished, how
ever. The station gangs engaged on
i this rqj^l have resumed work on their
contracts.
The problem of putting supplies in
to this section of the main line is be
ing solved by building wagon roads.
Poiopat & Co. have finished grad
ing south of the Little Susitna, and
have secured a new' contract two miles
north of the river.
Camps for the maintenance of
wagon roads have been established
between Camp 174 and Camp ISO, and1
at Little Willow Creek, and are being
I filled up with men as fast as obtain
able from the employment bureau.
The residency between Kashwitna
and Sheep creek, with headquarters
at Camp 201, Caswell creek, has been
established, with Resident Engineer
j D. L. Hough in charge.
A wagon road will be constructed
from Camp 201 to a point near the
mouth of Caswell creek where a land
ing and a small warehouse will be
i built alongside one of the navigable
channels of the Susitna river. With
this facility the work between the
Kashwitna and Sheep creek can be
supplied with provisions and material
by means of the Susitna river boats.
A piledriver crew was organized
during the week for the purpose of
driving the Caswell creek crossing and
the structures south of that point, to
connect with the crew working north
ward from the Little Susitna.
Tie contracts have been awarded to
T. Tadey & Co. and Linstrom & Co.
The cutting area of the former is be
tween the Little Susitna and Browne’s
lake, and that of the latter is at Wil
low creek. When the Susitna river
is open a tie contract will be let cov
ering the section between Kashwitna
and Sheep creek.

Chairman Edes, who left Anchor
age this morning for an inspection
trip along Turnagain arm, will not
come to Seward on this trip, but will
stop at Kern creek, returning from
that point for a visit to the Talkeet
na section. After the trip inland he
will come here.

the bridge at that place.

Granite Creek bridge and moved to
Camp 156 to prepare this camp for
the steam shovel outfit.

during the period. Track was laid
on the main line from Station 5670
to Station 5807 plus 50. The steel
gang was engaged for four days of
the week on surfacing and back work.
