“No funds for new aids to navi
gation In Alaska were alloted for the
I current fiscal year excepting for car
‘ rying on the work of constructing the
ne\v light and fog signal station at
Cape Spencer. It was not practica
ble, therefore, to install many new
aids to the westward during the sum
jmer,” said Capt. W. C. Dibrell, super
iintendent of lighthouses, who return
! ed to Ketchikan recently after cover
ing the coast as far to the westward
as Unalaska. Joining the Lighthouse
tendar Cedar at the Skumagin Islands,
he spent about three weeks on board
and left the vessel at Anchorage, for
| the return to Ketchikan. Exception
al good weather conditions were en
j countered during the whole trip, the
i superintendent says, and good prog
; ress was made with the work per
I formed by the Cedar.
i\cw miqs tsiamisnea.
In the westward three new blin
i her lights were established at points
! on shore, two new gas buoys and
lone small oil light were put up. “The
| foregoing includes a large gas and
j whistling buoy and a blinker light to
| mark the entrance to Resurrection
j Bay, upon which is located Seward,
the terminus of the government rail
road; a gas and bell buoy at Kodiak;
a blinker at Chignik; a blinker on the
north end of Unga Island; and an oil
light at Uyak, Kodiak Island,” said
the superintendent.
Two new buoys werealso establish
ed, one at Cordova and one at Tutka
Bay, Cook Inlet.
On the return trip Captain Dibrell
inspected the construction work in
progress on the new station at Cape
Spencer, “Good progress,” he said,
‘is being made with the work, but
on account of the approaching season
of unfavorable weather conditions it
will soon be necessary to suspend op
<-i.'trims until next spring. Coi.fo-ta
ble camp quarters have bi>i provid
'd for rhe personnel of tie working
force. Preliminary operations will be
completed before closing work, and
the erection of the main building will
commence as early as possible in the
spring.
Modern Station at Spencer.
“It is expected that this important
light and fog signal station will be
placed in commission before the end
of next summer.
Telling of the Cape Spencer sta
tion the superintendent said, “The
equipment will be modern in every re
spect. An incandescent oil vapor lamp
will beynstalled in a revolving flash
ing lens, producing a flashing white
light of about 110,000 candlepower.
The fog signal will consist of a dia
phone operated by compressed air,
which is considered one of the most
efficient types of sound fog signals.
“In addition to the foregoing it
is the intention to install a radio
fog signal, through the aid of which
vessels equipped with radio direc
tion finders may take bearings on the
station in thick weather from a con
distance. This station when placed
in commission will be ot very great
assistance to mariners approaching
the inside waters of Southeastern Al
aska from the westward.”
MAKING FINAL STAND
MANAGUS, Nicaragua, Oct. 1.—Ad
vices from Honduras say the rebel
leader, Gen. Ferrera is without funds
or ammunition and is making a final
stand against the government troops.
The Nicaraguan government has re
fused a request of the Honduran fed
eral general, Trimin, that his forces
be permitted to pass through Nicar
aguan territory, to pursue the rebels.
No reply has been received in ans
wer to Nicaragua’s protest over the
violation of her territory, by the Hon
duran troops, several days ago.
