The Juneau "Daily Record-Miner" May 17, 1904 reports in a lenghty article titled "Baseball in Alaska" on the several teams that played in last year's state tournament, including teams in Whitehorse, Dawson (which won last year), Skagway, Juneau, Treadwell, Douglas City and Ketchikan.
Treadwell is near Douglas and Juneau in Alaska's southeast islands.
