Tho point is that there must be no delay. Tfee train is due here at 8:30 o'clock tomorrow evening. If it gets in three hours late Coffroth can eas ily win his bet. But a tieup anywhere along the line would make it hopeless and that Ls what the S. P. is taking special pains to guard against. It is no simple matter to bring tho Overland through in midwinter with the heavy pull over the Sierra Ne vadas and the long run through Wy- i oming, Utah nnd Nevada, on the some ' time that is made in summer. But j special orders have been issued thnt j no delay shall be permitted for any' cause which possibly mny bo averted. ! The two hours must be made up and.t he. train must be brought through if three or four engines have to be. tied on to it. Realizing the advertising featore of the stunt, the S. P. is working to win Coffroth's bet for him, and all Cof froth has to do is to look out the window and admire the winter scenery.

The revenue cutter Bush, stationed nt Jnneau, is expected to be ordered to day to begin immediate search for the five men who left the wrecked steamer Farallon nt Llamma bay a month ago to eek aid for their ship wrecked comrades, and who have not been heard from since. United Stntes Senator Piles has been requested by Frank 33, Burns, manager of the Alaska Steamship company, owners of the Farallon, to secure from the treasury department the- necessnry authority for the dispatching of the Bush nnd it is practically certain that the request will be granted. If for nny reason the Bush should not be available, the steamship Yucntnn, due at Vnldez today, will be ordered to tho westward for the purpose. The six men who risked their lives for their imperilled fellows are : Sec ond Mate Gns Synnon. Seamen Otto Nelson and Charles Peterson, Captain. Wedding and Engineer Albert Bailey, en route to Kodiak to join the launch Sea Wolf, nnd Charles Bourne, a res ident of Afogna):. The men left tho ship destined for Kodiak, a distance of about 30 miles. Up to January 3, when the ln"t re ports were received from that port, they had not arrived. Manager Burns "floes not share the pcneral belief thnt tho men have been lost in tho severe storms thnt hnve raged nlong the Alaskan const for ninny weeks, but thinks they hnve put into one of the many Indian villages along the She likof strait. I7e bases this opinion on the fact thnt Captain Wadding is fa miliar with thnt conntrv.
