Tf.ig morning Henry Phillips
found on the beach near the mouth
of the Skagway river one of the
Princess Sophia life preservers and
» Part of one of the hatch covers
from ?ne same boat. These two
things were lying side by side
and thv life preserver appeared to
havs been used as some of the
s'rih^ h-!d been tied.
It is probable that one of the
ill-fatuf' passengers had used the
plank as an aid to keeping afloat.
The high south winds and rising
tides w'l in all probability bring
more pieces of the wreck and per
haps seme bodies and a good watch
should be kept up. j
PENNSYLVANIA'S IN.
0LUSIVE QUARANTINE
The influneza epidemic is furnish
ing the state of Pennsylvania a fore
taste Of the dry era it will be ex
periencing by 1920. Wliile the
galooB-closinp edict is aiding the
health authorities in checking and
lesseuing the seriousness of the
dread disease, some of the results
growing out of the enforcement of
tht> mandate are being studied' with
Intense Interest by citizens not
heietofore concerned in the drink
problem. A reduction of eighty
Per cent In vice and crime as the
result of closing the liquor shops
of • big city for only five days is a
suflcientlv spectacular circumstance
to a:.ract and hold1 the attention of
an intelligent public, and that is pre
cisely what the police court re
cords of Pennsylvania's big city
show. Not even th© Ingenuity and*
inrentiveBess of the liquor publicity
bureaus can successfully refute the
argument of empty police stations
and jails. 1
Nor Is the effect of the closing
order simply negative, contractors
employinp laboring men report that
in spite of the Prevalent influenza,
the Monday after the order went in
to effect, they had a full force of
workmen, whereas, ordinarily the
count upon ten to fifty per cent of
their men being off Monday and
sometimes Tuesday as t'ie result of
Saturday and' Sunday sprees.
A3 the citizens of the great state
under quarantine fight their way
to victory over the malady which
has flf grievously afflicted them,
they m av well ponder seriously if
it i" *he part of wisdom to longer
tolerate an institution so indisput
ably a liability from the standi oint
o*-health, ethics and economics. Wh
can doubt that the result of this
sober second thought will he the
defeat on election day of all candi
dates for the state legislature who
have not pledged themselves to
vote ror state and national prohibi
tion.—Union Signal.

In our Issue of yesterday we mad
the statement that G. K. Betts was
going to Seatle .and had severed
his connection with the Bank of

that this is only partly true. It

true iha he has severed* his con
uectH n with the Ba,_k of Alaska. H*3

FIRST SHIPMENT OP
BERING COAL HERE
The first shipment of Bering river
coal was brought to Cordova last
night on the launch Rolfe. It con
sisted of about thirty tons of anthr:"

erous orders for thig coal, but will

CARIBOU GOING SOUTH
The heavy run of ic® in the Yu
kon has stopped the last of the
great trek from crossing the river
on the trek southward of
the caribou and a good
many an* following down the east
bank, which brings them past Daw
son. They have been seen in the
hi.'ls on practically all sides of
D?\vson. Some were seen to cross
tho Klondike valley near Canadian
Klondyke dredge No. 3, just above
the mouth of Bonanza while a num
ber disturbed the quietude of Moost"
hide.
The herdg on the west side of
the river also seem to treat the
great city with impunity. some
sfragglinr bands have been seen on
tho road opposite town, just above
tho West Dawson ferry landing. The
moving ice in the river is so
thick now that there Practically is
no travel back and forth, but a
few adventuresome fellows who hav
come across in row boats report the
herds quite close in. Horses which
were ta^en over to haul in the gam
are bein.- kept busy on the job
or are at Faulkner's ranch at West
Daw30n devouring oat hay until
suen time as the river closes.
DEATHS ARE MADE Pl'KLIO
Washington. — Renewed' assur*
ance that American casualties are
| bein^ made public as rapidly as re
I ceived from General Pershing was
given < y General March at a con
ference with the Senate militray
committee. lifl:
He said the War Department is
behind about 15,000 names in an
nouncing minor casualties, reports
of wbiuh are brought over by cour
ier, but the lists of dead and seri
ously wounded are cabled' and giv
en t;> »be public with the least
possible delay. ■
Discussion of (he subejct wae
Irougjct up by Senator Hitchcock,
Democrat, of NeDraska, who In
sisted that the department ip hold
ing u? the names unnecessary,
Ge: eral March explained that be
cause of communication difficulties
in Franco and the extent of the
fig-hting there is &ome delay in
cnectong up at organization head
quarters and at receiving stations
and hospitals back of the lines.
H* pointed out, however, that
although just across the channel
from the theatre of war, England
experienced a delay of four weeks in
making public casualty lists, less
complete than those given out in
this country.
