WILL sfay
Humboldt to Run Until
Km! of Year
It is announced definitely that the
Humboldt will be operated by the
Pacific Coast Steamship Compauy and
will continue on the Skagway tun until
the end of the present year. This an
nouncement wis made to set at rest
certain rumors that she is about to
become allied with one or another of
the new compauies that are proposed
for this route
lu spite of this announcement, how
ever, storie.- persist in remaining in
circu'ation among those informed in
transforation circles that new steam
ship lines are planned for the South
nastern Alaskan route. One of the
plans is for a line to Tacouia, direct,
without stopping at Seattle, and the
other plan is for another line of boats
to Seattle. There is no doubt but that
negotiations have been pendiug with
th? owners of the Humboldt to get
tnat vt-sel to be one of the independent
liners.
The la->t Juneau Keeord-Miner to ar
rive iu S agwav contains the follow
ing:
"Arrangements will be completed to
day tha*. will settle one wiy or the
other w(ether Juneau is to have an
independent line of freight steamers or
not A representative of Seattle cap
ita! "-ha* been working very quietly
anions the leading shipoers for the last
few i!ays for the purpose of closing
enough contracts to insure the propos
ed line a profitable amount of freight
business at a very reduced rate. It is
said that enough merchants have agreed
to patronize the new company to make
it a certainty, but the whole affair hus
been conducted so secretly that few de
tails are available.
"However it is certain that the new
line will run from Seattle, and one of
the two buats that will be putin service
at the start will be an old timer in this
scction.
"Ketchikan has been canvassed and
has shown a decided willingness to go
in the new proposition. Thus far Ju
neau has been selected as the terminal |
although Srka may b.? visited if enough !
business to warranted the trip i> guar- |
anteed."
