WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.—Delving
into the appropriations of the last con
gress it came to the notice of the big
news gathering organizations today
that the agricultural appropriation
bill carries $175,000 for the investiga
tion of the kelp situation on the Pa
coast including kelp fields off the coast
of Alaska.
Railroad Gets Lion’s Share.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.—Con
gress appropriated upwards of $10,
000,000 for expenditure in Alaska
during the current fiscal year. These
appropriations were all the territory
got, however, as other legislation in
tended for the benefit of the north
country failed.
The most conspicuous example of
the legislation that was defeated was
the amendment to the war revenue act
for the relief of the American hali
but fisheries’ interests in the North
Pacific.
The government railroad in Alaska
got most of the money that is to be
spent there. The appropriation for
the railroad totaled $8,247,620. At
that congress lopped $2,000,000 from
the estimate submitted by Secretary
of the Interior Franklin K. Lane. The
first appropriation in the session was
of $2,000,000 in order that work might
be carried on during the winter. The
remainder was provided in the sundry
civil appropriation bill. Congress also
provided $100,000 for continuing the
mineral surveys in the territory. Oth
er appropriations are as follows:
Care of insane, $70,000; education
of natives, $200,000; medical relief of
natives, $50,000; reindeer service, $5,
000;protection of game $20,000 and for
suppression of traffic in intoxicating
liquors $15,000.

WILL HAVE ITS
(Juneau Empire)
Having successfully financed the
Bon Alaska Mining company, Jerry
Galvin, well-known northerner, will
leave for Fort Wrangell in a few days
with a big crew of men to lay the
grade for ten miles of mountain rail
road, running from the mouth of Mill
creek, which empties into the sea ten
miles from Wrangell, to the Ground
hog basin. Galvin arrived from New
York last night, and is at the Frye
hotel, says‘the Seattle Times.
“We don’t expect to ship any ore
this winter," he said, “ but as soon a$
the snow leaves the ground next
spring and the steel can be laid, we
will begin shipping 600 tons a day.
This winter will be devoted to getting
in the electrical plant, building flumes
and laying the grade for the railroad.
It will be impossible to get the neces
sary steel before next April or May.
“ An abundance of ore already has
been blocked out, but further develop
ment in the mine will be carried on
this winter. A number of crosscuts
will be made and some tunnels driven, j
The ore bodies, carrying gold, lead, j
silver and zinc, are large, and there is |
ample tonnage for a long time. We j
will employ about 60 men and use i
about ten or 12 horses this winter. !
We are already building the necessary '
wharf.”
Galvin said the east appears to be
prosperous.
