2«t*-p<dent. here oi. a campaign
lour, spoke before a large aud
ience tonight. Going . over the
present administration work, he
spoke very foreably on Alaskan
matters. He declared that “It
was with the approval of Secre
tary Work that the secret con
tract between Morgans, or the
Alaska Steamship Company and
the Alaska Railroad was drawn,
fixing rates for freight runs and
joint shipments." “Why should
the government railroad make a
secret agreement with a combine
trying to obtain a monopoly over
the resources of Alaska?” asked
Wheeler. He explained that the
road, instead of seeking to break
down the government by making
secret pacts, should endeavor to
assist it for the good of the gener
al public. “It is proposed by the
independent candidates to break
up this unfair and illegal hold of
the Morgan-Guggenheim group up
on the land and water transporta
tion of Alaska." said Wheeler.

•PARTLY MISTATMENT, *
PARTLY FALSEHOOD”
Seattle, Oct. 7. K. T. Stnntiard
vice-president of the Alaska
Steamship Company last night
dated that Wheeler’s allegations
nade in a Seattle campaign speech
ast night, of a secret contract
between the Alaska railroad and
the Alaska Steamship Company
were "partly a mistatement and
partly a deliberate falsehood" and
that Mr. Wheeler had probably
misunderstood John E. Rallaine.
He said that the agreement cited
was that by which tin ore is
shipped from Mayo down the Yu
kon river to Tanana and taken
by tugs to the railroad at Ne
nana where it is transferred to
ore cars and hauled by the gov
ernment railroad to Seward or
Anchorage, where it is again
loaded onto the company's steam
ers. Formerly the ore was ship
ped down the Yukon to St. Mich
aels, where the transfer was made
directly to the southbound steam
ers, but it was found that this
means was a great deal more ex
pensive than shipping by railroad
at special train prices.
