TWO LOCAL BANKS

FAIRBANKS BANKING COMPANY AND WASHINGTON- ALASKA

COMBINE.

DEPOSITS OVER TWO MILLION New Institution Will After the First

of the Month Be Known as the

Washmgton Alaska Bank, and Will

Be a Strong Organization.

After several months of negotia- tion on the part of the stoc kholders of the Washington Alaska hank and the Fairbanks Banking Company, a

consolidation has been arranged be tween the two hanks, which is to

take effect on the first day of Oc-

tober In the consolidation the name

of the Washington-Alaska hank will he retained, hut the business of the hank will he transacted in the build-

ing heretofore occupied by the Fair- banks Banking Company, this change heTtg deemed advisable owing to the

necessity for a greater amount of room for the business of tlie hank under the consolidation, and owing to

the further fact that there would not

he room In the vault of the Washing ton-Alaska hank to place the safe

deposit boxes now owned by the Fairbanks Banking company.

t'nder this consolidation the Washington-Alaska hank becomes the strongest banking institution in Alaska, with deposits in excess of two million dollars

The officers of the Washington- Alaska hank under the consolidation are as follows:

President, E. T Barnette; first

vice-president. J A Jackson; second vice-president, J A Jesson; cashier, F. W. Hawkins; assistant cashier. J,. E. Wing; teller. H H. Reeves; book-

keepers, A. F. Herpiek and D. B Neal. Directors: E. T Barnette. J. A Jackson. J A. Jesson. J A. Healey, John A Clark. I). H. Jonas. George Preston.

The Seattle correspondents of the new Washington-Alaska hank will he the Dexter Horton National, with which the Washington Trust com-

pany has lately consolidated, and of which Mr. W. H Parsons is vice-

president, and the Seattle NaConal bank.

New York correspondents will he the Bank of Manhattan and the National Park bank.

San Francisco correspondents will be the Wells Fargo, Nevada National and the Bank of California.

Mr. George B. Wesch. cashier of the Washington-Alaska hank, will, after a short while, leave over the trail for the Iditarod. to look over

CAST NO REFLECTIONS ON LLOYDPARTY

Following is an account of the arrival of the Parker-Rrown Mount

McKinley climbing expedition at Valdez and what members of it had to say in regard to the success of the Lloyd party. It will be noted that no doubt is cast on the ver-

acity of the Lloyd party, as was

indicated in the telegraphic dis-

patches: "Professor Herschel C. Parker, of

Columbia University, head of the Parker-Rrown Mount McKinley ex-

pedition, came in last night on the Portland and will remain here sev-

eral days until he recovers his health, which has suffered some-

what on the trip. A. M. Aten, of Valdez, who accompanied the expe- dition, also returned with I)r. Park- er. Mr. Belmore Brown of Tacoma and the remaining members of the party were passengers on the Port- land and went on to Seattle.

“The expedition, although it did not succeed in making the ascent to the peak of the mountain, was suc-

cessful in the undertaking for which it was formed. It proved to the sat-

isfaction of its members that there Is no possible route to the top of Mount McKinley 'rom the south side

f the mountain, from which point l»r Cook claimed to have climbed it and further proved that l*r. Cook's claim was false.

"The party climbed about half

way up llie mountain, reaching an

altitude of nbout 10.000 feet, on

Ruth glacier, litre they found and

photographed a peak whieh Cook

claimed to be the summit of the

mountain, securing pictures exact-

ly identical with those exhibited by Cook, thus proving the falsity of his claim. The party followed the route traveled by Cook, and fully twenty miles beyond the point reached by him.

Contrary to the report brought out by the Rust party, tlie expedi- tion had plenty of provisions for an-

other month, and could have re-

mained longer had tin re been any chance of reaching the summit of the mountain.

"The party was unable to see the

flag said to have been placed on

the summit by the Lloyd party but did not consider this fact as dis-

proving the claims of the Fairbanks men. as the flag was said to have been placed on the north side of the mountain and might have been hidden from t lie view of persons on

tlit* south side. "Professor Parker is a mountain

climber of large experience, having 'he record of making more first as-

cents of mountain peaks than all other persons in America." Valdez

Prospector.

within a couple of hundred feet of where a crew of men were working on the Itig Drum Mining Company's ground. Fifty ounces of gold was

taken, valued at about $800. The thieves operated in a leisurely man-

ner and It was perhaps their very boldness which accounted for their success Starting with the lower rif- lle they cleaned back the dirt, about six inches of which had been left on

the riffles, lifted the riffles and clean-

ed up the gold below. Going to the

next one they shoveled the dirt on to

tlie lower riffle, took that one up and

continued along the box.
