Gus Nord, master of the ill-fated steamer Aleutian, and Capt. Miller and Capt.

Nord expressed deep re- gret at losing his vessel but highly praised the conduct of his crew and their splendid action from me';shots were fired when Cecil “Little | time the uncharted rock was struck, tearing through the bottom of the steamer, until they arrived at the cannery at Larson Bay. Fortunately the crew of the Aleu- tian was up and on deck, as the steamer had stopped at a can- nery a short time before, and were able to get at the life boats im- mediately when the steamer struck, Capt. Miller, pilot, who was on watch at the time the uncharted rock was hit, said. When asked if the seven minutes time in which the Aleutian was reputed to have gone down after hitting the rock was exaggerated, Capt. Miller pulled out his watch, which stopped when he hit the water, just nine minutes after the steamer struck. Out of the 39 passengers aboard and the 115 members of the crew, only three were in the water. “There was absolutely no panic¢ or excitement. Everyone worked rapidly and calmly to get the boats out, loaded and in the water,” Capt. Miller said. He was one of the few to get in the water as he was sent aft to the radio office to send an SOS by Capt. Nord, and jumped as the ship punged into the sea. ‘The water where the ship went down is between 29 and 49 fathoms an appraisal of the Petersburg hy-|with the interest, deep, according to Capt.

IN KETCHIKAN RAID (Ketchikan Curonicie) | Two shots were fired, more than 1250 bottles of intoxicating liquor {seized and one man was arrested Lin a raid by the marshal’s office on the second floor of the Davenport hotel last night (May 23). The Mac” McLellan refused to halt when ordered to do so by the offi- cers. McLellan was leaving the Daven- port hotel when the marshals ar- rived, armed with a search war- rant. Disregarding a command to halt, he dashed away and Deputy Marshal C.V.Brown fired two shots from his pistol. Brown said today that he fired the shots “in the air” and not at McLellan, who was placed under arrest when he re- turned a short time later. | MecLellan was charged in commis- \sioner's court under the Alaska Bone Dry act with possession of intoxicating liquor, in an informa- tion filed by Walter King, assistant United States Attorney. Earl Byers, owner of the 81 Taxi, and June Carroll also were named in the information and warrants were is- sued for their arrest. They were reported to be “out of town on a fishing trip.” McLellan was releas- ed on $1500 bond. In addition to Brown, W. H. Cas- | well, Frank Sayres and C. J. Spring- er, deputy marshals, participated in the raid. i B L. P. Wikoff and P. A.

Samples of the ore have been found by carefully checked assays made by several assayers to contain copper values ranging from 4 to 21 per cent, with an addftional silver content of from 4 to 10 ounces per ton. ———e——— WRANGELL COLD STORAGE ATTACHED BY OHIO WOMAN (Wrangell Sentinel) ) U. 8.
