PIRATES, CAUGHT IN
ACT, SHOOT TO KILL
While returning from Ketchikan
to Metlakatla on Monday night, the
crew of the Annette Island Pack
ing company tender “Coast” dis
toveied a pirate boat bra.li'g one
of the company traps. Th' Coast
‘mmedlately started toward the trap
and the pirates sensing danger start
ed away. When about 300 yards dis
tance or less apart they opened fir?
on the cannery tender. Two bullets
entered the pilot house, one going
Just a few Inches from one of the
men and lodging in the bunk. A
third bullet also bit the boat, but
fortunately none of the crew were
hurt. The pirate ship succeeded in
getting away In the dark.
Numerous other acts of pirates
are reported, several traps having
been held up and robbed, while* in
other Instances suspicions are held
that the watchmen are in the con
spiracy with the looters. Many of
the trap owners are arming their
men, It is said, and are instructing
them to shoot to kijl, in protection
of their own lives and the property.

more food than the litter with eight.
They are all in good condition and
seem to have become happy in their
