Gold Bearing Rock Crushed Douglas Island Alaska Equal

inston Lead m the Production of Wool.
The Greatest Mines in the world.

More goid-bearing rock is being
crushed on Douglas island, Alaska,
than in an equal area in any other
country in the world.
The Treadwell and allied companies
now have $50 stamps set up-540 on
the Treadwell, 1870 on the Mexican,
100 on the Union and 1870 on the Ready
Buliino--and the engineers will soon
turn over the mills to the companies
as completed. These mills will easily
crush 1880 tons of ore day. do
not believe there is any place in the
world, South Africa, Australia, or any
where else, where so much rock is be-
ing crushed on so small space of
ground. The Treadwell now has s.
900, 200 tons OF ore in sight. The
Ready Bullion promises to equal the
Treadwell in the amount OF it's produce
ton. All the dirt has been sluiced off
it and il has been traced for 800 feet
along the beach and 600 to 700 feet
along the hill. 1t is from 80 to 100
feet wide on the surface, and is in the
contact between greensboro and slate.
as are all the Douglass island lodges.
the ore being OF the same character as
the Treadwell. The shaft is down $50
feet under Gastineau channel and the
ledge has there wild ened out to over
800 feet and carries from $l2 to $l4 in
gold throughout.
The Elmer is erecting new 90
stamp mill in the gulch leading up to
Silver Bow basin, and is about to start
a tunnel from that level which will
tap it's ledge at great depth. Further
up the same gulch the Alaska-Juneau
Company has 80 stamps at work on the
ore from a great open quarry OF slate
full OF veins of quartz Carrying free
gold. They simply quarry out the
whole mass. sort out the quartz and
send it to the mill and throw the slate
over the dump.
Berners bay is keeping up its repu-
tation. the Ophir, Northern Belle,
Bald Eagle and Seward all having
their mills in operation. Judge Mel
len, who represents an Indiana Com
pany. and who successfully opened up
the Jualin, is now developing the
Ivanhoe, over the ridge between the
Jualin and the Comet, and has about
completed a 2O-stamp mill. The Jualin
has turned out $4,000 or $l2, 200 a
month since it started. Milo Kelly
has some very good claims in the Bern
ers bay district, showing free-milling
ore, and is working them. Montana
creek, which runs into Linn canal be-
tween Berners bay and Juneau. is COM
Ing to the front. The placers were
worked in the early days, and now the
Early is working in very rich ore and
running five-stamp mill. The first
cleanup was very satisfactory. The
Boston q Alaska Company is sinking
a shaft on the Funters bay mine.

The grocers in Seattle and Tacoma
are making a run on -four, taking adj
vantage of the rivalry between Tacoma
and Seattle mill men. The conditions
are peculiar. The Washington wheat
grower wants 50-cent wheat, while the
miller is only getting $40 for his
ground product. To grind wheat that
costs so cents, add the freight. and
then sell it at $40 means something
of a loss

he FOUGHT SIX men
HENRY CLAY WHEAT HAS A
BATTLE ROYAL
with the Aid Of Friend He Succeeded
in Whipping the Entire
Crowd

Henry Clay Wheat, colored, a horse deal
er residing at 62O Darwin avenue, East Los
Angeles, was assaulted by six young men
Yesterday, but after a hard battle he sue
ceeded in putting them to flight.
Wheat purchased horse In the morn
ing for a nominal sum and started home
with 1t. When on North Main street near
the soap factory he met five youths who
were engaged in peddling oranges. They
hailed him and asked him what he wanted
for the horse. Wheat replied that IS was
the price of that particular piece Of horse
flesh. One of the men offered him 81 and
on wheats refusal another man spoke up
and suggested that he take the animal to
the soap factory, as the horse was of no
account anyhow. Wheat suggested that the
man keep out Of the conversation, and as
bargain was not struck Wheat passed
the men. He had not got further than on
the old Kurtz street bridge when the
young men began abusing him and started
after him, several picking up rocks. Wheat
paid no attention to his pursuers, but
drove ahead and turned to go to his place.
The gang, which had been Joined by an
other fellow, cut across lot and headed
off Wheat and were at his gate when he
drove up. They attacked him, and for
time the fight looked like slump in wheat.
He was thrown down by the weight 6f
numbers, but being quite powerful, he
Immediately rallied and pitched into his
assailants in vigorous fashion. A big
crowd had been attracted by the row, and
white man stepped up ana pulled two o!
the men away from Wheat. This pair re-
sented any interference and sailed into the
ally of wheat. The horse dealer fought
on and managed to get the better of his
assailants and had chased them into the
willows by the time the police officers be-
gan to arrive on the scene. Wheat wanted
to get complaint against them, as he
claims it is the third time that they have
assaulted him. The district attorney, how
ever. reasoned that Wheat had come out
winner on the fight and this oughtItolbs
satisfaction enough for awhile.

EUROPEAN INTERESTS
As Affected by the Hispano-American
Relations

NEW YORK, April PA dispatch to the
World from London says; Considerable
feeling was manifested by the Irish men,
bers in the House of Commons over what
they considered Mr.. Balfours evasive re-
plies respecting the detention at Kingston
of the mail steamer Ireland, said to have
been purchased by the United States as a
dispatch boat.
Mr.. Balfour's statement that negotiations
for her purchase had fallen through is de"
MED by Mr.. O'Callaghan, Secretary of the
City of Dublin Steam Packet Company, the
owners of the mail boat Ireland, who said
the contract had failed merely because the
steamer was detained by the British au-
thorites. However. as Balfour stated, the
government had no right to detain the Ire.
land if her owners chose to take her across
the Atlantic, but the sale cannot be con-
cluded on this side. The Ireland is a %.
knot paddle steamer. strongly constructed
and fine sea boat.
Arrangements for an Anglo-American
banquet to be presided over by Lord Chief
Justice Coleridge and attended by many
Liberal and Radical members of Parlia-
ment in token of sympathy with the United
States are almost completed.
Changed Our Policy
NEW YORK, April 27.-Herr Leibknecht,
leader of the German Social Democratic
party, in an interview with Berlin corre-
spondent of the World, said: 1.-THE i'm
portance of the present contest is that
America has crossed the rubcon of neu-
trality as regards her attitude toward Eu-
rope. She certainly will not stop at Spain.
Her next step will in all probability be
taken in the Far East with England and
Japan as allies.
Both the United States and England
have been making preparations for their
alliance for year past.
"Should it be ratified then farewell to the
so-called world politics of the European
powers"
The Possible Alliance
NEW YORK, April 27.--A Paris dispatch
to the World says: There is a lull in the
excited comments on the Spanish-Ameri-
can war. Mr.. de Lanessant in Rappel
says: "An alliance between England and
the United States, whether open or secret.
could only astonish those who have not
studied the question. England's isolation
is stubborn fact and the only way ou.
of it without compromising her colonies
is by welding together a race which is
already one in language and religious feel
