I [Iff TOMORROW flF
The SS Northwestern is being
held over in Seward to await the
arrival of the train from th£ North.
The train which arrived in Seward
last evening was a “special” sent
out from Anchorage as the one
which was coming through from j
Fairbanks became snowbound in i
the Broad Pass section and could j
not get through. This train was
marooned at Cantwell Monday
night by the snow which blocked
its progress both going and coming.
It is not known whether the train ’
was freed to go back to Fairbanks j
last night.
Rotaries have been working in an j
attempt to free the southbound;
train at Broad Pass and it is ex- ;
pected that the train will be free j
to continue on its way and arrive j
in Seward tomorrow night. Thej
boat will leave tomorrow night soon I
after the arrival of the train.
The Gateway reporter shivered as
he received the word today that the
temperature at Fairbanks was 61
degrees below zero this morning.
Oscar Anderson, one of the best]
known of pioneer business men in |
this district and coal mine operator.,
arrived Tuesday from Anchorage in
connection with his product, Evan
Jones coal.
