Douglas Island news., 1904-03-23

Four Alaskan bills passed the United States senate Thursday, March 10, the most important one being that to di. vide the Third judicial division by creating an additional division. The headquarters of one judge will be at Valdez and the other at Eagle, Rampant or Fairbanks. The bills codifying the laws relative to municipal corporations and extending the coal land laws of the United States to Alaska were pass ed without any discussion or objec- tions. A vote on the delegate bill was dodged.

Solomon basin, across the bay from Valdez, will be thoroughly exploited this season. The Rainbow Basin Min ing & Development Co.,, which is back of the scheme, will have the necessary boring and other machinery landed on the ground the latter part of this month. The company will send up a number of men for the work, as they are not sure of securing men at Valdez who understand the business.-Pros- pector.

Bullion Creek Diggings.

The passenger and freight rates and the condition of the traffic between Whitehorse and Bullion creek, fur nishes the text for an interesting circu- lar letter prepared by R. D. Pinneo, of the traffic department of the W. P. < I. R.
 Among other things, Mir. Pinneo says:
 "The principal creeks on which i'm portant gold strikes have been made in the Alsek district. are distant about 2Oo miles from Whitehorse, iu northwest erly direction, and can best be reached via Whitehorse. A very good trail, which can be used both summer and winter, has been made from the latter point to the diggings.
 "At the present time those who are engaged in hauling passengers from Whitehorse to the new district are quoting rate of S100 to Bullion creek, the center of the strike, and S75 to Ruby creek. These rates do not in- clude roadhouse expenses while en route. The time required to make the trip by stage from Whitehorse to Bull lion is about seven days. Meals at the various roadhouses along the route are S1.5O each, and beds s1 per night.
 "Freighters in Whitehorse are now asking from 9 to 30 cents per pound for the delivery of freight to Bullion and other creeks in the immediate vii cinity, and it is fair to presume that the above will be about the average rate charged during the sledding season, which will probably close about April 10th.
 "During the sledding season, upon reaching Marshall Creek, 125 miles from Whitehorse, it has been found necessary by freighters to abandon their heavy two and four horse sleds and utilize smaller, single horse sled known as a double ender' to complete the trip. About 800 pounds constitutes a load for double ender.'
 "After opening of navigation, how ever, one can best reach the diggings by taking steamer from Whitehorse to Mendenhall Landing and proceeding overland from that point, thereby say ing some 75 miles of a journey by trail.
 
 ing will be established immediately upon the opening of navigation on the Tahkena rlver, which will be about June 1st, and will be continued until ap- proximately October 1st.
 ''The freight and passenger rate in the summer time, it is believed, will be about the same as that prevailing in winter"
Douglas Island news., 1904-03-23

J.D. Meenach, of Seattle, and the Ellamar Mining Company, of Alaska, are joined as defendants in suit be- gun by A. W. Hastie, as administrator of the estate of the late M. O. Glad hough, to recover an interest in the copper properties of the deceased near Valdez. The complaint accuses the de- fendants of fraud and conspiracy in transactions growing out of the pur- chases of the property by Meenach from Glsdhough in 1900.
