which dears up the disappear
j ance of Philip H. Munro, misa
I ing Seattle man. The body of
Munro, was found in a shallow
unmarked grave on the rocky
shore of Kanaga Island, in the
eastern Aleutians. Munro, who
: was 58 years old, went north
in 1925 to take charge of the
Kanaga Ranching Co’s, fox
farms near Kanaga Island.
Two men named Shruger and
Murray ,who were in charge of
Kanaga Island fox farm, van
ished mysteriously in March
j last year. Shruger’s hat was
found later, but no trace of the
boat in which they set out to
do some exploring was found.
Munro was then transferred to
Kanaga Island to take charge
of the property there. Loui3
Betteridge of Seattle, went
north and joined Munro and
remained two months. Munro
disappeared in August last
year. Betteridge returned to
Seattle and disappeared after
reporting to the fur company
officals that Munro had put
out to sea in a dory to explore
the north end of the island and
had failed to return. The boat
was found by Indians several
days later. A man by the name
of Johnson is said to have
found the body.
The action of the House Com
mittee in eliminating from the
school budget the item cover
ing the financing of the teach
ers' institutes will result in the
discontinuance of this activity
for the next two years, ac
cording to an announcement
in the Alaska School Bulletin.
The school system .therefore,
will be denied the benefits
which arise from an anuual
get-together of the teachers
and the school executives.
The first Alaska Railroad
T earner which starts down the

The boat will land the freight
at the mouth of Fish Creek on
the Tanana, and Captain Geo.
Black, with his boat, the Pio
neer ,will take it to the head
of the jake, a distance of 30
miles. From that point it will
be hauled overland by cater
pillar to the ground on Amer
ican Creek. The Yuba Manu
facturing Company, builders
of the dredge will assemble it.
Two million yards of dredging
ground, enough to keep the
dredge in operation for eight
to ten years ,have already been
prospected and found to aver
age between 90 cents and $1
per yard.
