SMB'S DOCK
SEWARD, Jan. 22—Work is being
rushed on a temporary dock to ac
commodate the ships that call here.
The present dock was so injured by
the fire that it is impossible for tlfc
ships to unload while It is in the pres
ent condition. The temporary dock
will be ready for use within two
weeks, and a big force of men are on
the job. The Mask Engineering Com
mission wiio were the representatives
of the government in having charge
of the burned dock has announced
that a new dock will be built by them
at once.
SEWARD, Jail. 22—A careful esti
mate of the damage done by the fire
here last night which destroyed the
wharf and warehouse places the loss
at fifty-five thousand dollars. The
loss of tlie shipments of freight await
ing the arrival of tlie Dora from the
westward will work a great hardship
on the people of the section of the
western roast served by her as it may
be several weeks before the shipments
may lie renewed. The loeal agent of
the Alaska Steamship company states
that the Dora will be enabled to se
cure coal at Valdez or Cordova to
make <lie trip.
The Alaskan Engineering coimnis
sion suffered the loss of thousands of
dollars when the wharf was destroyed,
and has. announced that the work of
rebuilding the structure will begin at
onoe. It is reported that much of the
material for bridges in the Anchorage
district which was brought hack last
fall when the ice prevented its being
unloaded, will be used in rebuilding
the wharf and warehouse and that
ilie structures will be ready for ser
vice in two weeks.
