CtBLESHIP DELWOOD
ARRIVES FROM SEATTLE
On a mission of inspection of the
cable terminal at Seward and making
certain changes in landings off Mon
tague Island the cableship Delwood
docked yesterday evening and spent
the day at her moorings.
The Delwod is under command
i of Robert W. Shears, master, and
sailed direct from Seattle to Seward.
Among her personnel are^Captain An
drews, who relieved Lieutenant Hub
bel last year, in charge of the Signal
Service, and Henry Winters, cable en
gineer.
Among the changes announced by
Mr. Shears is the closing out of the
cable office at Valdez, all activities
in connection with the cable service
now being confined to Seward.
Aside from an interruption earlier
in the year when a whale became en
trapped by the cable off Cape Flat
tery, the service has been practically
perfect, according to the master of the
Delwood.
Recounting the episode of the whale
becoming entrapped by the cable the
master of the Delwood confirmed what
was at first believed to be a nautical
yarn at the time the dispatch was
sent out.
“Receiving word that the cable was
acting queerly we set out to make
tests,” said Mr. Shears. Off Cape
Flattery we located the trouble and,
following custom, cast out a grappling
hook and picked up the cable. As
we drew it up to the bows we noticed
something entangled in it. On inves
tigation we discovered that the whal%
evidently with its mouth open, had
fouled the cable, then taken several
twists that wound the cable around its
jaws. It then managed to make a
hitch around its tail with the cable,
and was as well trussed up as if It
had been done by someone with an
idea of capturing the animal. It re
quired some time to cut the leviathan :
from the coils of the cable and during
this time you could cut the atmos
phere with an axe. I have great sym
pathy for men working about a whal
ing station after that experience.”
INTERIOR LOOKING IIP
Major Ransom, representing the
Accidental Insurance Company, who
s in Seward until Sunday when he
departs for the South, reports that
while in the Interior during the last
:wo weeks he gained a very favora
ble impression of business conditions,
rhe enormous work which the Fair
aanks Exploration Company has und
3r way amazed him and he -sees many
pears of prosperity for Fairbanks
md in other Interior communities.
Major Ransom set a new mark in
writing insurance, it is said, writing
policies within three weeks time,
the amount which ordinarily covers
a year’s effort on the part of a sales
man. He broke his record set two
>r three years ago, a record which at
that time was given wide prominence
in insurance circles throughout the
United States. “It is easy to sell in
surance,” Major Ransom said, “when
pou have a good company back of
pou.”
SPLENDID FISHING
