MAUD IN COMMUNICATION
WITH SPITZBERGEN
CAPT. Roald Amundsen while in
Nome recently, received a telegram
from Norway advising him that his
exploring ship Maud is in daily
communication with Spitzbfergen
The wire did not state the Maud’s
position, but the Captain figured
that being in the drift ice her
position would be about the same
as when the Noorvik wireless sta
tion last nicked her up.
The .V me radio is still unable
to hear the Maud.
Captain Amundsen expects to
leave Nome for Wainwright about
the middle of March and content,
plates attempting his trans-polar
High: during the later part of May.

TRACK WORKERS ARRIVE
TO STANDARDIZE ROAD
The train arriving from the south
■ last night brought over seventy men
| to start the work of standardizing
the railroad between Xenana and
Fairbanks under the direction of
Roadmaster C. G. Jones and it is
expected that through trains will be
running to Fairbanks within a few
weeks, possibly at the end of thirty
days.
Steel rails of standard weight
have been distributed along the line
for use in replacing the lighter rails
I now in use, and everything is in
readiness to push the work at top
speed, the grade and ties having
j been in readiness for the change
from narrow to standard gauge.
After having engaged the ser
vices of all available men in the
j Interior for this work, a call was
sent to the coast for additional men
and most of those arriving last
night were hired at Anchorage.

FARMERS ARE IN BAD WAY
SAYS ARRIVAL FROM EAST
—
Conditions throughout most of
the farming districts in the States j
! are in a deplorable state, according 1
: to G. A. Benson, nephew of Julias
Warner, well known oldtimer of this :
district, who arrived rom Minnesota
| yesterday. Conditions are particu-1
■ larly bad in his part of the country
he says, in consequence of low prices
prevailing. He cites the case of one
of his neighbors who shioped two
carloads of potatoes to market and
did not receive enough for them to
pay for the sacks they were shipped
j in. Wheat growers also are up a- j
gainst it. he says, with quotations
below normal and labor scarce and
„high priced.
Mr. Benson explains that demand
for labor in the cities is such that
farm help is very hard to get now- ■
adays and the wage demanded by
those who are still available is
such as to make fanning almost pro
hibitive.
Mr. Benson comes from Erskine, t
Minnesota and is seeing Alaska for
the first time. He expects to join ‘
his .uncle at his camp down the riv- j
er within the next day or two and'
is sure he will like the country.
AMERICAN SHIPS THRIVE
WITHOUT SELLING DRINKS
LON'DNON. April, 7—Those who
thought prohibition was going to kill
passenger travel on American ships
have found out they were mistaken
' In spite of prohibition and the fact
that mid-winter is usually the dull,
est season for trans-Atlantic travel,!
four of the American passenger lin- j
ers which left England for America!
during the past six weeks had a !
full complement of passengers book- *
ed several days before sailing time. «
I ■
In each instance applicants for (
ber?hs were turned away.
The President Roosevelt was the !
first of the vessel’s flying- the Am- t
eriean flag to experience the unu
sual rush of passengers in mid-win. !
ter. Thirty-five applicants for pas- i
sage were turned away, and a tern- i
porarv dormitory had to be built i
to make room for extra third-class (
travelers. The America left South- 1
ampton a few days later with more j
!than 1,800 passengers, every berth j
| being filled. j
_
The steamer Admiral Evans sailed _
from Cordova for Seward this morn
ing at nine o'clock. Mail from the
Evans should reach Nenana on Tues
day.
Mr. and Mrs. Bragaw have re
turned to Anchorage, where Mr.
Bragaw will re.enter the employ' of
the Alaskan Engineering Commission
They were at McKinley Park all
winter, Mr. Bragaw being in the
park service.
