Bogoslof Birth and Alaskan Volcano Archipelago Tale
New Yorker describes the island Bogoslof born amid eruptions near Unalaska and Umnak. The piece details Grewingk and Mount St Elias confusion, Alaskan volcanism, foggy archipelago scenery, and a lone monthly steamer serving Belkofsky to Chignik along the north coast. It notes miners, canneries, trading posts, and the rule requiring development for mining claims while mentioning Heinze’s copper ventures in Utah.

Rush Bridge Work Near Alaska Central Track Completion
Bridge construction on the Alaska Central beyond the end of the track progresses rapidly. Watson and Snow face grade delays from rock work and labor shortages as a large trestle at tunnel 1 mile 49 nears completion. Track laying to the tunnel hinges on the bore and rock cuts around mile 50 with two Placer River bridges pending. The big trestle should finish mid October, with the mile 50 rock cub delaying until November 1. Harriman stocks rise while Union Pacific tops 10 and Southern Pacific hits 93, recalling days under Uncle Collis Huntington.
