In 1891 several of the canneries operating at Karluk, on Kodiak 

 Island, combined forces and built a hatchery on the lagoon at that 

 place. As the cannery men were at swords points in regard to their 

 fishing rights on the spit, in 1892 the hatchery was closed. In May, 

 1896, the Alaska Packers Association broke ground for a hatchery 

 at the eastern end of the lagoon, near the outlet of Karluk River, a 

 short distance from where the hatchery was located in 1891, and 

 operated it until 1916, when it was abandoned as a hatchery. 



In 1892 Capt. John C. Callbreath, manager of the Point ElUs 

 cannery on Kuiu Island, operated a small hatchery on the left bank 

 of Kutlakoo stream. It was a very primitive place, and an excep- 

 tionally high tide destroyed the whole plant in September. It was 

 never rebuilt. 



Captain Callbreath, however, after seeing to the operation of the 

 hatchery, had returned to Wrangell during the summer, where his 

 attention was again attracted to hatchery work, and in the fall of 

 1892 he built a small hatchery on Jadjeska stream, Etolin Island, 

 about 200 yards from its mouth. The stream is about one-half mile
