44 PACIFIC SALMON FISHERIES. 
In 1890 a cannery was built by the Bartlett Bay Packing Co. on 
Bartlett Bay, Icy Straits, and operated by Williams, Brown & Co., 
of San Francisco. <A saltery was constructed here prior to that date, 
and in 1889 a pack of 4,300 cases was made in a crude way. In 
1891 the ice piled up in Glacier Bay to such an extent that the can- 
nery could do almost nothing. It was not operated after this date. 
In 1893 it became a part of the Alaska Packers Association and was 
dismantled in 1894. 
About 1890 a saltery was established on the north shore of the 
mouth of Quadra Stream, on Boca de Quadra, by Clark & Martin. 
It was operated intermittently until about 1898, when it was aban- 
doned. The same parties also established a saltery at Ketchikan 
shortly after the one on Quadra Stream was built, and operated this 
until about 1898, when the plant was turned into a steamer wharf 
and warehouse for the new town of Ketchikan which was building 
up around it. 
In 1896 the Pacific Steam Whaling Co. built a cannery on the 
northern side of Hunter Bay, near fe southern end of Prince of 
Wales Island, and made a pack the same year. Miller & Co. had a 
saltery at this place and it was purchased by the company and 
removed to make room for the cannery. Miller & Co. also had a 
saltery on Nutqua Inlet, which was built in 1896, and this also was 
sold to the canning company. In 1901 the cannery became a part 
of the Pacific Packing & Navigation Co. It was closed in 1904. 
Upon the dissolution of the company in 1905 this plant was pur- 
chased by the Northwestern Fisheries Co., which company, after 
keeping it closed in 1905 and 1906, has operated it each season since. 
The Quadra Packing Co. built a cannery on Mink Arm, in Boca 
de Quadra, in the spring of 1896 and made its first pack that year. 
In 1901 the plant was purchased by the Pacific Packing & Naviga- 
tion Co. It was closed in 1904, 1905, and 1906. Upon the dissolu- 
tion of the company in 1905 the plant was purchased by the North- 
western Fisheries Co. It was reopened in 1907 and has been oper- 
ated each season since. 
In 1897 a saltery was built on Taku Point, near the head of Taku 
Inlet. In 1898 and 1899 it was operated by the Quadra se Co. 
In 1900 the Icy Straits Packing Co. operated it. 
In 1897 a small saltery was in operation by Cyrus Orr at Point 
Barrie, Kupreanof Island. In the same year Walter Kosmikoff 
operated a small saltery at Shipley Bay, on Prince of Wales Island. 
In 1900 he sold it to the Icy Straits Packing Co. 
Fred Brockman in 1897 built and operated a small saltery on 
Sarkar Stream, Prince of Wales Island. Mr. Brockman operated 
this saltery intermittently until his death in 1915.
