COMMITTEE TO
MAKE REPORT
The Skagway Chamber of Com
mercc will meet at S o'clock tonight
in the town hall. It is the regular
meeting night, but it is probable that
the principal business before the body
will be the report of the committee,
consisting of H. H. Draper, Charley
Runner, C. C. Shea and .1. M. Tanner
which was appointed to investigate
the matter of obtaining townsite pat
ents.
The committee called upon Trus
tee Uoughton some time ago and he
gave them all the information at his
command. Since then the matter has
been placed before the city council. It
is understood, however, from reliable
sources, that the committee have pre
pared a somewhat sensational report.
The Cottage City is not expected
to arrive in Skagway until Sunday,
according to a cablegram received by
Frank Stuart. Pacific Coast agent.
She has on board ."0 passengers for
Skagway and 90 tons of freight. Of
the freight CO tons goes into the in
terior and :10 tons is local merchan
dise.
