old mooring positions away out in
the roadstead. The late remaining
ice prevented the company from
placing these, scows at anchorage
until this late day in the season.

ice can be easily seen a considerable
distance from Nome, all along the
horizon. The weather wise explain
the fog and tho cold summer as

view of its strictures upon his bona
fides in asking for a new trial, the
Court reguost Mr Smircr, tho Dis
trict attorney of the First Division,
to prcr-ecute the case. Mr Cochran
