CONGRESSMAN HUMPHREY
 CALLS IN AT SEWARD

Hon. William E. Humphrey of Se- attle, representative in congress from the state of Washington, and Mrs. Humphrey passed through Seward on the steamer Portland from Kodiak. During the steamers stay in port Mr. Humphrey employed his time among old Seattle acquaintances here, and new local ones. He went to Kodiak late in April on the steamer Olympia direct from Seattle and spent several weeks on the island and vicinity hunting and studying game conditions. He was unable to get away as soon as he eX- pected and consequently was unable to carry out his original plan to spend some time on Kenai peninsula.
 MT. Humphrey takes great interest in the preservation and propagation of game in Alaska and in the last con- gress he introduced and carried through the house a. bill amending the present game law to meet the views of men familiar with the subject but it failed in the senate. He will intro duce another bill in the new congress for the same purpose.
 MT. Humphrey is one of Alaska's best friends in congress and can be de- pended on to support any measure favored by majority of the people of the territory.

JOHN KELLY DENIES THAT
 ANYBODY WAS DROWNED

John Kelly denies that he was drowned through the wrecking of a sloop in Turnagain arm last week, or at any other time or any other place, and denies that he has ever been dead from any cause since he was old enough to remember. He is now in Seward and explains that he and his three companions were not in the sIoop when it went on the rocks near Sunrise, as already related by the Sun rise correspondent of the Gateway. The sloop slipped it's lariat at mile T on the north side of the arm when the men were not in it.
 Kelly and three other men who were working on mile n made a trip 10 Girdwood in the slOop. When they returned to T they fastened the boat by a rope to a stake but the wind and tide caused it to drag the stake out of the sandy beach and it naturally hur- ried away under the propulsion of air and water currents. It was undoubted- Iy the boat which was wrecked at Sun rise, as indicated by the aOtsam bearing Kelly's name which was found it's way 10 land. He appraiSes his loss at S2O.

DEFENDANTS AT KODIAK
 SECURE NOTED COUNSEL

Two Kodiak miners accused of rape were defended on preliminary exami- nation by Congressman w. E. Hum- phrey of Seattle and Emerson Hough, the noted author and magazine writer. The complaint was dismissed by U. S.. Commissioner Silverman on motion of Deputy Marshal w. w. Bowers, who was conducting the prosecution. The evidence was weak although the deputy marshal insisted that the pre- sumption was great.
 MessrS. Humphrey and Hough were ravaging the bear gardens of Kodiak island in search of grizzly skins on foot and happened to be in the town of Kodiak when the defendants were brought before the magistrate. Both are lawyers, Mir. Humphrey in active practice when he is not legislating or bear hunting. Mir. Hough abandoned the law when he entered the literary field.
 The hearing was not sensational as very little testimony was offered, and some people thought the miners were compensated for their arrest by the distinction conferred upon them by be- ing able to secure such noted counsel in a remote island upon the fringe of the Japan current. The miners had no coined or printed money but pre- sented the lawyers with several small gold nuggets to commemorate the ex- perience.

 Sunrise, June 24-WhileJ J. H. Brown low was walking along the beach last Thursday, he noticed a jib and main sail sloop trying to make the mouth of Six-mile creek against a strong head wind. The boat was late on the tide and when the tide turned iJ swept the sloep upon the rocks at the mouth of the creek. There appeared to be some people aboard. After the boat appear ed in sight from behind the island she was totally submerged with the eX- ception of her mast. It also lOokedas if there was a man clinging to the mast, and another to the bowsprit.
 Brownlow was the only eye witness to the disaster, and was powerless to assist as there was not a boat here to go to the help of the wreck. Nels Anderson and Edwin Crawford went to Hope along the beach today and found a roll of bedding, In the bed ding was a worlds almanac with the name of '. Kelly written on the cover. This IS the only clew to the identity of the men on the boat, which probably came from Knik. No one has come from KniS to giveintormatiOn concern ing it.

YENTNA OUTPUT
 WILL BE LARGE
Yield Will Show big Increase in Spite of Handicap of BIan-
 ket Locations.

The Yentna district will produce several times more gold this year than last but is under a serious handicap because of the blanket stalking of all the good creeks by power of attorney. This is the report brought by Richard Butler and F. Jackson, who arrived in Seward last night. They went to the interior in March to spend the summer but found everything plastered with location notices. Mir. Butler said:
 "We came out because we decided there was nothing in the country for us. We went in there to get some ground to mine but found that a few men have spent all their time for year or two mailing down every piece of ground that looks as if gold might be sluiced out of it. We were told that one man has 5000 acres covered by power of attorney. Everywhere we went we found discovery stakes. NOlh Io DSlhS NAOlIC Ou very lCh Ol these but a miner who wants to work ground doesn't care to start in where somebody else has located".
 Butler and Jackson spent all the time they were inside on the creeks of the Kahiltna and report that sluic- ing had just begun when they left June l5. Some of the miners were starting off well while others were not so suc- cesSful. Seven men were on Poor Mans gulch and in the first few days had taken out two and one-half ounces a day per man. Herndon and Jacobs had just started on Nugget but expect to do better than they did last year, when they took out about $25,OOO. A larger number of men are working with them this year and they under stand the ground better.
