R. Carpenter Here Mter * Interior Hunt for Museum Sheep The Hercules Powder Company disaster, a terrific explosion that yesterday killed at least two score of persons and injured hundred: “couldn’t have been an accident™ in the opinion of R. R. Carpenter, Vice-President of Dupont de Ne- mours. Carpenter, who arrived in Juneau yesterday by Electra from Fairbanks after a mountain sheep hunt in the Wood River country, is shocked with news of the Hercules explosion “We haven't had an accident in modern plants in years,” Carpenter said. “It looks as though it must have been sabotage. I don't see how else it might have occured.” Carpenter, with Elkhorn dude rancher Ernest Miller .and a nat- uralist, H. Green, from the American Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadephia, secured five fine rams of the Dall white mountain sheep in the Wood River country for a museum exhibit, packing in from Healy for their hunt. Green and Miller are remaining in the Interior for a time to collect flora for the sheep group and make it thoroughly authentic. ‘While in Juneau the Carpenters are guests at the Baranof Hotel - - - PACKERS UNLOAD Two salmon packers were dis- charging at the cold storage wharl this afternoon, the Jadah, with 7.- 000 pounds, and the Elfin, with 30,- 000 pounds. 1 e Subscribe to ine Empire—the paper witr paid ch‘rulnuun, e Try a clnssmcd ad In The Emmrt | ®e 0e0ccscesccoee iy Alasks the larges | lan, NORTHBOUND scheduled to .\'H"' E 30 c'clock tonigiht ar 9 o'clock to- ® Yu morning v scheduled to arrive 8:30 o'clock tonight and about midnight for Sit- tle. to arrive Sunday m North at il (] eduled to 9 tonight scheduled 9 a attle Co'nmbia from St sail tomor- to Seattle m to sail tomor- rew Northland scheduled from Seattle 10 a. m TOw ® Denali scheduled to sail from Seattle September 17 at 3 a. m ® Princess e il from Vancouver e 17at 9 p m ® Alaska scheduled to Seattle September a. m SOUTHBOUND Mount McKinley to arrive outhbound oclock tonight, and south at 11 o'clock Aleutian due southbound Mon- day.
