Ibe oftlcers of the White Pass & Yu
kon railroad were shown the above tel
egram by Thi Alaskan this momiug
and asked to explain their side of the
question. General Agent Wurzbichcr
said: "I got a wire i from our agent a
few minutes ago. The train was just
pulling out wlmo tue boat was landing.
It would not have been possible to hare
gotten the bsgg?ee through the cus
toms house inside of three or four
hours. We nrver hare made It a prnc
tice of delaying trains to make boats
aud it would be a bad practice to begin.
Trying to hold the train today would
have meant (our or Ave hours delay to
night. There ?re no boats leaving to
day and the passengers could not possi
bly have raUsed connections for the
outside."
