MAKES CHANGES
IN POLICE RULES
GENERAL REARRANGEMENT OF
WATCHES
New Schedule VIII Give City Better
Protection Through the Night.
Shifts Made In Secret Ser
Vice Department

While no great shake-up is antici-
pated by the various heads in the po-
| lice department, yet general rear
rangement of methods is expected to
take place within the next few weeks.
According to rumorS at headquarters
there are to be changes in the detec-
| tive department and among patrol
men.
A Encouragement of watches is
scheduled for tomorrow. The system
in use at present has proved to be a
failure according to the ideas of the
new heads of the department, and the
old system will be reinstated.
At the present time the men go on
duty at a. M, p. m. and midnight.
This places the largest watch on duty
| from 4 o'clock in the afternoon until
midnight. This is believed to interfere
with and weaken the patrol service to
a great extent.
"The idea of the change" said Capt.
Broadhead of the police patrolmen
last evening, 'is to facilitate the patrol
service and make it more productive
working from p. m. until 4 a. m,
when the small watch will relieve it,
will give far more protection during
the night to the city.
"Our new watches will go to work
at p. M, a. m. and noon. This we
believe will be the best for the city and
for the department. AS to other
This is all that know of at the pres
ent time"
mo sweeping changes will be made
in the detective department" said
Capt. Paul Flammer of the detective
department last evening. Where we
think that we can better the depart
ment we will make changes, but there
| -
partiality or political pull
Many Changes Slated
Undoubtedly there will be many
changes made but it will take a good
deal of time and care. Old men in the
| department can't be taken from it, in
great numbers, at once, without Sc
riously injuring 1t. I do not know of
any definite changes at the present but
there will undoubtedly be a few soon,
1T is very difficult to select men for
detective work. A detective must
have many qualifications for his call
ing which does not appeal to the out
slider. 1t is my purpose sand that of
Chief Auble, believe, to better the de-
partment If possible. There is to be no
favoritism whatever"
Rumors fill the police circles to the
effect there are to be several changes
tomorrow. Whether this be true or
not could not be learned but it was
denied by Capt. Flammer He said
that there might be some changes but
there were none that he was certain
of.
Still less could be learned about
about changes in the Office force of the
department. No one would make any
dhnite statements either denying or
confirming reports. The men in both
departments are stirred to a consid-
cradle extent by the rumors, which
| perVade the station.
Among the great surprises that has
been rumored to be In order is the re-
moval OF Detective ]. w. Murphy
from the secret service department and
placing him on a beat Murphy has
been one of the most efficient detee-
tives that the department has ever
known. Some of his friends say 1t is
not true, others say he has political

A MINE.
The Treadwell Ore is Worked
for $1.36 Per Ton.

Superintendent Robert A. Kinzie of
the Alaska Treadwell Mining Company
has just published the annual report of
the company for the year ending May
IS, 1905. 1t should prove interesting
to everybody connected with quartz
mining, for the property, which is sit
uated on Douglas Island, is a wonderful
mine in every respect. The main shaft
had reached a depth Of 1855 feet at the
time Of the report and preparations
were being made to carry it down still
deeper, although the last 173 feet
showed that the rock contained only
$l.l4 per ton as the average result OBJ
tanned from the assays of ifty-four
samples.
The magnitude Of the operations is
Indicated in the fact that ore to the ex-
tent Of SIG, 234 tons was mined and
milIed during the year. The total
amount Of ore broken was 068, 057 tons.
only 1865 tons Of which was sorted as
waste. Some Of this was quarried out
Of open pits, which have attained a
depth Of 600 feet. The reserves Of ore
in the mine at the end Of the year
amounted to $3.50, 404 tons, which
shows that development work is about
four and onc-half years ahead Of the
Stopping.
The average value obtained from 47l6
samples of ore taken throughout the
mine was $2.65 per ton. The total re-
suits obtained during the years opera
tons amounted to 81, O95, 469, equal to
$2.39, minus a small fraction. The
total cost of operation and construction,
on the other hand, was 81, 1876, OPS, or a
fraction in excess of $1.35 per ton.
This left a net profit of 5000, 439, or
nearly S1.04 per ton.
The mine has been operated for ff-
teen years. The company is capitalized
for SIS, 600, 900, but the operating profits
Of the mine up TO May 18th had reached
the sun Of S 1881, GA, or So, 33l, ga in
excess Of the capitalization. The v
age value of the ore mined and milled
during these fifteen years was 81. Is per
ton and the average total cost of oper-
ating S1.A per ton.
The mine employs a daily average of
636 men throughout the year. Two
stamp mills are in constant operation,
n being equipped with 24O stamps and
the other 300. Part Of the time these
are run by steam power. The remainder
ofthe year they are operated exclusively
by water power.

The new assay Office of E. L. Flet-

the Valley View hotel, is one that
would be a credit to any city in the
land. Mr.. Fletcher was chief assayer
Tor the T%onopah Mining Company for
over three years and is one of the most
competent in his line in the state. The
Office, which is large and commodious,
Is fitted with u~p-to-date appliances for
ore crushing, water analysis, sampling,
etc. The ore breaker and crusher is
operated by electric power. Mr.. Flet-
cher will certainly secure his share of
the assay business of this section.
