Washington, Nov. 24. — The “Old Kassan Natioial Monument,” consist- ing of 38 acres within the Tongass Na- tional Forest, Alaska, thas just beet created by presidential proclamation as a result of recommendations made by the Secretary of Agriculture. The tract embraces the well-known aban- doned Haida Indian village of Old Kassan, situated on Prince of Wales Island in Southeastern Alaska, about thirty milés west of Kefchikan, The village was abandoned by the Indians about ten years ago. Among the relics which remain there are about fifty Indian totem poles, five or six of which are classed as exceed- ingly good specimens. In the desert- ed village there are also eight large square buildings which were original Iy constructed according to the pe- culiar plan of the Haida Indians, and which, it is stated by those best qual- ified to know, represent the best spec. imens. of Hafda architecture that now exists. The largest of these buildings is approximate’f 40 by 60 feet in size and is made entirely of round and carved timbers. Therc also remain & nuniber of Indian graves with the typi- cal small grave houses erccted by the Alaskan ndians. Since the village was abandoned by the ndians the buildings have been rapidly falling into a state of dilapi- dation and,decay, and a certain amount of "vandailsm by tourists and souvenir hunters renders some form of protection essentlal. An examin- ation of the area was made jointly by representatives of the Forest Service and of the Interior Department, and repofts stronsly urging the establish- ment of National Monument were ap. proved by the secretaries of both de- partments.
