NEW INDUSTRY IS
Steps were taken last night by the
Cordova Chamber of Commerce, which
it Is thought may result in the addi
tion of another industry to Cordova.
Inquiries have been received by the
Chamber from a fertilizer company,
asking the conditions here and the
possibilities of obtaining enough of
fal from the canneries now In oper
ation to keep them supplied.
The heads and other offal from sal
mon Is excellent material for such a
plant, and it is indicated in the in
quiry that if it could be obtained In
sufficient qirantities, the company
would be glad to locate here.
Nels Tlawkinson. manager of the
Carlisle Packing Company, appeared
before the Chamber, and from figures
furnished by him it is estimated that
fully 2,000 tons of offal can be ob
tained from the canneries in the im
mediate vicinity of Cordova.
This, it is estimated, taken in con
junction with the other fish which
possess no food value -but abound in
the adjacent waters, would keep a
plant of a fair capacity supplied.
It also was pointed out that the
clam canneries here would supply
such a plant with plenty of shells,
which are a necessary factor in the
manufacture of fertilizer.
WANT TOLLS REDUCED.
President Hazelet also appointed a
committee to act in conjunction with
the Seattle Chamber of Commerce in
an effort which has been inaugurated
by that body to have the telegraph
tolls to Alaska reduced.
The secretary was authorized to of
fer the use of the Chamber of Com
merce rooms to the court, which will
convene here July 17. The rooms are
offered for his use without charge.
Housekeeping rooms for rent. In
quire of Dr. W. H. Chase.
TOLSTOI PLAY TONIGHT
"A Woman's Hesurrection" Is an
other Betty Nansen triumph In which
this wonderful woman Is supported by
two eminent co-stars, William J.
Kelly and Edward Jose. A triple alli
ance that combines, with the impres
- ' ' -
prison dock. Miss Nansen's sublime
art never attained more transcendant
heights. William J. Kelly lends all
his fine distinction nnd poise to the
role of the prince who betrays Gatu
sha; only In the end. by an act of
splendid self-abnegation to effect her
— mi-;— 1
sive power of Count Leo Tolstoi'
drama, to render this photoplay trill;
magnificent.
A« Katusha Maslova, first the puri
young girl, then the fashionable deml
monilaine, next a sordid drab of thi
i spiritual resurrection. Edward Jose,
• in a most unusual role, Simonson, the
prince's body servant, who is faith
) ful even unto the death, gives a dee)>
ly moving portrayal of this sympa
i thetic character.

UN DUD 8
t VALDEZ, July 10. — Late last even
f ing Jack Blake and George Francis
. discovered the body of a man. in an
advanced stage of decomposition. In
a small house on Broadway, owned by
Alvah Fames, of Cordova. Blake
} stated that in passing the place he had \
• noticed a disagreeble odor, and con
8 eluded to investigate, lie found the
f door of the house unlocked, and on
' pushing it open was nearly overcome!
by the stench. It was dark inside, and I
B he struck a match, by the flame of |
t which he distinguished the body of a(
f man lying on the floor, just inside the
' door. He immediately reported his
a find to the authorities.
8 This morning United Stales Com
B missioner George J. Love, as acting!
0 coroner, held an inquest over the re
1 mains. Several witnesses were ex
0 amined, among them the parties who
found the body, who related the story
of the discovery.
t William Finical was also called as
1 a witness, and identified the body as
! that of Robert Eichler, a millwright,
t who had often been employed by Mr.
h Finical about the sawmill, but who
8 had been out of work for some time.
0 He stated that Eichler was an Aus
e trian. After the evidence the jury re
8 turned a verdict of death from alco
holism.
9 It is learned from those acquainted
' with the man and neighbors in the
8 vicinity of the house, that nothing •
I- had been seen of him since late last :
’• fall, and from counter slips found in •
8 the house it was ascertained that the |
8 last purchases he had made in the ;
r stores was about the middle of Octo- :
1- ber, and the probable time of his :
i- death is fixed at about November 1. :
» The fact that a man has laid un- ;
1- discovered for more than eight months :
e is accounted for by the disposition of
y the accused. He was a recluse, hav
B ing no intimate friends or associates,
i- and desiring none. Late in the fall
e or early winter he was missed, and
rumor went out that he hud gone to
B Anchorage.
