LAW A DEAD
 ONE IN PLACER CAMPS

Juneau. April l.--Senalc Bill
 No. 1, as it is better known, the Roden- -Gairnry S. hour law passed the Senate today but very much rmaSrulated. There was an in-
 rsting battle before it went to
 final passage. The author in the senate. Senator ROdrn, himself a
 legal representative and agent of one of the most powerful mining companies in the world, was a
 picturesque battling for the in-
 siSlrnl demands of the working
 miner as against he content ions
 of his employer. he operator. senator Brumrr on he other
 hand took Inc stand that tin"
 passage of Inc bill as il stood
 would work irrrparablr injury to
 the operators of seward prnln-
 Sula. senator Willard took the
 middle course and said that the interests of the working miner ranh the operator should be con- Sidrrrd in framing a bill of this sort. He was in favor of an B. hour law. but one that permitted of eight hours work. He was sup ported by Senator Ray, who call ed Senator Tanner to the chair. The bill as finally passed more resembles the Utah law than the Arizona law from which il took il $ form. Time commences al the face and not at the tunnel or shaft entrance: provision is made ; for contingencies wherein mon
 will be permitted to work more
 than eight hours in quartz mines
 and il will practically be a dead
 letter in the placer camps of Sew
 ard peninsula.

HEALTH OFFICIALS
 FIND SQUALOR IN COURTLAND STREET
Visit To Several Apartments DisclOses Startling Condi- tions of Filth, Say
 Inspectors.

Scenes of squalidness, indescribable filth and living conditions looked for only in the slums of a city were dis covered this morning by Inspector David W. Lynch and Assistant In- spector James c. Grace of the Depart ment of Health in a visit of inspec- ton to SS and 90 Courtland street. Radical improvements have got to be made, and at once, according to the ultimatum of Inspector Lynch or con demnation proceedings will follow He reports that Mrs. Frank L. Ames of Courtland street is in charge of the property and notification will be given her today or tomorrow.
 Even worse than the widely. cir cu1ated conditions found to exist in Water street lodging houses" conn mented MT. Grace, and this was af- hrned by Inspector Lynch. It took them some time to recover from their surprise after return to their offices The findings were a great surprise on account of the location of the houses and the exterior appearance. The visit was planned as a result of a "tip' intimating that things were not what they seemed. It was admitted that 1t is but a beginning Of similar trips.
 At 30 CourtIand street they were surprised to learn that g people live there, children included, and many living in one or two right housekeep- ing" rooms Poor ventilation, dirty walls, halls, rooms, etc, were included in the report of the observation In one room a family of six was found, a woman and four children about the room while the father was in bed asleep. In one room was found, &C., cordfng to a report, a kettle that ap- peared not to have been emptied for months. The odor was extremely foul in this room and also in others.
 Mot fit for human 11abitatfon under present conditions" said Inspector Lynch following his trip. There have got to be radical changes along the lines of sanitation, ventilation and general arrang gements."
 Another instance, reported as hay ing been found, was a number of chiI- dren living in one room, where the oldest has been i'll, out of school and trying to attend to the others while the mother Is out at work trying to support them.
