BRISTOL BAY FISHERMEN
 OPPOSE USE OF TRAPS

Seattle, Nov. S-Fear is entertained by the fishermen and residents of Bris- tol bay, Alaska, that the salmon in Wood river will be eXterminated if measures are not adopted by the gov ernment for their preservation.

 tOrial Organization.
sv Cable to The Daily Gateway.

Seattle, Oov. 5-The Nome delegates held a lively caucus last night which was attended by nearly all of the Alas kans in Seattle. After very hot con- test Perkins and Ryan received the endorsement for the caucus as candi- dates for delegates to the nation re- publican convention to meet next sumer to name a candidate for the presidency. John Corson, Steel of Nome and Milroy of Candle creek were placed on committee to draft res olutions to be presented at the Juneau convention. Corson will probably lead the fight at Juneau for a plank in the platform fayoring territorial gov ernment. It is thought that perhaps Col. Peakins may be induced to with draw as candidate for delegate to the national convention in favor of Capt. Johnson of Nome.
 Congressman w. L. Jones of the state of Washington in a speech before the caucus last night declared himself in favor of home rule for Alaska.

 Nearly Over.
MAKES ADMISSION TO FRIENDS
Says He May Have Been Partially Responsible for Present
 Financial Panic.
By Cable to The Daily Gateway.

Washington, D. C., Nov. l-Presi- dent Roosevelt decided this morning that it would not be necessary to call an extra session of congress. For sey- eral days it has been thought that an extra session would have to be called in case general panic struck the country as 9 result of the tightness of the money market and the failure of so many banks throughout the country. However, the crisis seems to have passed and many financial institutions are again opening their doors. The president admitted to friends that that he may have been partially re- sponsibIe for the financial panic by the prosecution of law breaking corpora tions, yet it was not his intention to cause trouble or turmoil throughout the country.

BUY MACHINERY
IN Los ANGELES
Nevada Mining Men Are Beginning to
Come to This City for Equip-
ment, Instead of Going
North

| Los Angeles is rapidly becoming a
great center for the sale of mining ma
chinery, not only for Nevada, Arizona
and Mexico, but for northern Califor-
mia, which section has heretofore been
buying in the San Francisco market t.
L. Moffitt, representing the Fort Bid
we'll Consolidated Gold Mining COM
pany, is now in Los Angeles arranging
for the purchase of equipment for his
company'S properties.
Mr.. Moffitt states that the country
surrounding Fort Bidwell is rich in
minerals and that a large number of
mining men are becoming interested in
the district. The Fort Bidwell discov-
cry occurred about two years ago and
with the completion of the railroad,
now under way, ore shipments will
commence.
Among the large companies now
operating in the district are the Ven-
ture syndicate and the Fort Bidwell
Consolidated. The Fort Bidwell peo-
pie have been working all winter and
now have a tunnel in about 1876 feet
A five-foot ledge has been struck rum
ming across the breast of the tunnel
from which ore averaging about $500
per ton is now being taken. The Fort
Bidwell Consolidated company's prop
erty lies about 1000 feet from this
property and other good properties are
located in the surrounding territory.
Mr.. Moffitt says there is much ac-
tivity in Fort Bidwell stocks and tho
richness of the claims may be UNDER
stood when 1t is stated that while the
stock of the Discovery was first put on
the market at 10 cents, it can hardly
be purchased now at so cents and the
Fort Bidwell Consolidated has advanced
from cents to 10. Mr. Mohitt will re-
turn to the north in a few days.

reported. A ledge from 20 to 50 feet
in width outcrops for considerable dis
tance, showing excellent values in cop
per, some gold and silver.
Another rich gold strike is reported
from the Camp Thurman district, where
John Thurman, the original discoverer
of the Lloyd -Searchlight bonanza, dis
covered a ledge showing good ore from
grass roots. The new discovery is a
contact proposition and lies half way
between the Empire mine and the Ma
gle Buena Vista.
The Lloyd-Searchlight this week
made a mill run on It's first shipment of
ore and Is more than pleased with the
showing. A consignment Of about ten
tons was treated at the Duplex mill,
and gave bonanza values in gold. This
property Is now being developed by a
50-foot shaft, drifting having been done
along the vein both north and south
from the shaft. The mill run was made
as a test on the ore body, and the COM
pany, which is a close corporation, will
continue sinking to the water level and
install q plant of machinery.
