 Attorney Steve Ragan received a telegram last night from c. ". Woolmon, manager of the laundry at Haines, telling him of the strike, and advising him to come down at once. Mir. Ragan could not leave, but is sending J. W. COombs in his place.
 As near as We could learn the discovery is about 75 miles north of Haines, the greater part of the dis tauce heing trayersed by 8 wagon road. How the going will be after leaving the wagon road is problematical, although it is more than likely that some of the num- erous trails in that part of the country will pass within few miles of it.
