steamer Northwestern, which depart
ed for the South this morning. With
the regular reservations, which had
been previously made, in which were
included three cannery crews, Shu
migan Straits, Uzinki and Izhut bay,
also passengers from the steamer
Redondo and the Starr, every reser
vation, including steerage, was sold
out on the present trip of the North
western, out of Seward.
There were a few who were not
able to get proper accommodations,
and these will await the arrival of
the Alaska, next week. At the pres
ent time, according to the local of
fice of the Alaska Steamship com
pany, practically all first class res
ervations on the steamer Alaska,
have been sold out. It is expected
there will be another crowd from
points along the railroad, who will
arrive on Saturday’s train and who
will remain over in Seward until
the following week, when the Yukon
arrives. \
The steamer Starr left port at
11:30 this morning for Knights Is

Seven Vessels In Port
One Time At Unalaska
Say Seward Arrivals
The Westward port of Unalaska
was the scene of considerable activi
ty during the recent visit of the S.S.
Starr, it is stated by arrivals in
Seward this morning. While the
Starr was in port at Unalaska there
were six other vessels tied up, three
of which Were the cutters Haida,
Algonquin and Bear, and also three
trading vessels, the Emma, Everett
Hayes and the Nanuk. It is report
ed the amount of traffic carried on
to the Westward, and especially at
Unalaska, would amaze one if a rec
ord was kept of the activities which
are constantly in force at the far
out-flung seaport. Seven vessels in
port at one time exceeds this sea
son’s record for Seward.

Lower Kenai Lake Road
Is Progressing In Good
Shape, Says Engineer
Road work on the construction of
the Lower Lake Kenai trail by the
force of the Alaska Road Commis
sion crew, which moved down to that
region from the Nuka Bay field, two
flays ago, is proceeding satisfactor
ily, according to Anton Anderson,
engineer, who returned to Seward on
Saturday from the workins, departing
this morning for the Anchorage of
fice of the commission.
Much of the new road will pass
over the old Russian road, construct
ed by Russian convicts more than a
century ago. Much of the old road
is intact but covered over with a
dense overgrowth. The Russian road
led into the former placer camp in
the Seven lakes region where the
penal colony was established, the
convicts working the diggings.
