- Washington, D. C, May .It la the
month of Way, 1111, and at this lata
data tba government's report on tin
fisheries Of Aiaaka la. Issued for ,ts
twelvemonth .ending Juna 10, 1(10, or
nearly a whoia yaar . arter tna fiscal
year referred y, ended.
However, aa an interesting remlnis
cenoe of events affecting the Alaakan
, fisheries, It might be of passing value
to west coaat men angaged In that In-
, duatry.
Data Xnf Bald Baok.
In the muaty old data entombed for
ao long In the archives of the bureau of
, fisheries It being tha confirmed habit
of government bureau to bring out
trade data long after private aganclea
have supplied auch data to those who
need them are found these facta;
"Tha number of' persons angaged In
tha fisheries of Aiaaka In 110 was
15,620, an Increase of 1031 over 1909.
Of these, 68S were whites, 4147 In
dtana, 2411 Chinese, 1206 Japaneaa,
' Korean e and IS Filipinos, aa compared
rlth 6C0S whites, 2823 Indiana, J9M
Chlneae and 2159 Japanese In 1909,
showing an increase In 1910 of' 122S
whites. 1834 Indians, 418 Chinese and
47 Japanese. The most gratifying fea
ture la the large Increase In the num
ber of whites and Indians employed,
as all of the Indians and many of the
whltea are permanent residents of the
. district The fact that the fishermen
act aa sailors on- the transporting ves
sels to and from the salmon canneries
and salterles explains the small mem
ber of transporters shown In the table
as compared with the large number of
transporting vessels.
Quantity of Products. '
"The total quantity of products was
214,63,488 pounds, valued at l,25t,
IS9, an Increase of 12,653,195 pounds
and $2,078,471 over 1909. Except for
salmon bellies and backs, fertilizer, oil,
furs and hides, the weights are round
weights, or the weights of products
when first takon from the water; for
weights of prepared products the reader
Is referred to the subsidiary tables of
tha report. As the packing establish
ments almost Invariably catch their own
fish. It has been found practically lm
possible to show the value of the prod
ucts as they leave the fishermen's
hands, hence the values shown are for
the prepared products.
"The total Investment In the fisheries
Is 120,711,422, an Increase of 110,829,
740, as compared with 1909. A consid
erable proportion of this Increase Is
due to the showing of cash capital Once
mofd, this Item having been eliminated
'for the first time In 1906. Nearly all
forms of apparatus show Increases as
compared with 1909."

(Halted Prraa Wire.) ;
New Tork, May 8. Women school
teachers of this city are raging with
indignation over the affronts to mod
esty .which 100. teachers suffered Sat
urday at the city hall.
These women were Imprisoned by a
detail of police In the aldermanlo cham
ber for two hours because the halls and
corridors of the, city hall were Jammed
with some 600 naked Marathon runners
who swarmed Into the building on fin
lshlng their race.
The teachers were participating In a
hearing of the stati legislative commit
tee on the new charter. When tbe first
of their number started to leave they
found men arid youths lying down all
over the building, waiting to be rubbed
down. Cheeks aflame, the women re
treated. The police then prevented, the
women from coming out, but made no
attempt to force the naked runners to
leave the halls and corridors. Finally
the police formed a double line through
which the school teachers were able to
pass without, being compelled to see the
naked athletes.
The marking of the Pacific highway,
that was recently authorized by the
Automobile club .of Seattle, has been
already completed from Tacoma to the
International boundary line, by the Se
attle Motor club offlclala. A schedule
has been arranged from Tacoma to
Vancouver, Wash., on the Columbia
river, oovertng the greater part of the
coming week, during which time It Is
expected that the Seattle "good roads"
enthusiasts will be greeted by local
representatives In the various towns
through which the Pactflo highway
passes, between Tacoma and the Ore
gon boundary.
While It Is anticipated that road con
ditions from Chehalls to the Columbia
river will not be as favorable now as
they will later on, still there Is but
little doubt but that both the truck and
pleasure car that the party will travel
with will have no difficulty In getting
through. Carroll's Point, the worst
part of the route. Is already open for
automobile travel this year and Is near-
Ing completion. This lelimlnates the ,
worst part of the Pacific highway In I
the state of Washington.
