On the steamer Evans that con- tinued on her way to the westward yesterday afternoon were two large parties of government geologists with horses and outfits for the inva- sion of the Nelchina and Knik min ing districts. They started from Seattle and one party is in charge of R. H. Sargent, who with seven men is booked for Illiamna on the northern shore of Cook Inlet. He will lead his party overland to the Lake Clarke country toward Knik. J. W. Bagley, in command of the second party, will disembark at, Knik Anchorage at the head of Cook Inlet and work inland through the. Nelchina gold fields to Broad Pass in the heart of the Mckinley range.
 Thirty-eight horses in all were on the Evans. Some of these are in tended for the Alaska Road Commis- sion for work on highways, and were left at Valdez, while the others are going to the far westward.
 Another party that got aboard at Juneau includes F. w. Williamson, U. s. surveyor, and Warren G. Fen ton, associate transitman. They will go to Knik and resume the subdi- visional surveys started in 1911. These surveys were resumed in 1912 by Warner and Williamson and by Bates in 1913. All their assistants are hired at the point from which the. camps are established and released at the end of the surveying season. Several young men previously left Juneau for Knik in anticipation of securing work for the season.
 Under the new system of marking section corners with the township and range as we'll as all the section numbers, no difficulty is experienced by one unfamiliar with public lands systems to correctly locate their holdings The aim of the depart ment is to cover the locations made by actual bona fide settlers and homesteaders as rapidly as possible. At present there has been surveyed in the Knik region approximately 14O,000 acres of the best agricul- tural land, which will be in the near future open for filing.

Geo. c. Hazelet, president of the Cordova Chamber of Commerce, has received letter from Reginald Blk of Copper Centre, which contains en- couraging reports about the Nelchina mining camp. He states that Nell china is a sure camp and that letters just received from reliable parties there go to prove the assertion. Pay has been struck 140 feet down on Crooked creek and was also found on two claims on Willow Creek On Poor Mans gulch, over the divide from Albert Creek, running into the Twone watershed, pay has also been found. The people in the whole camp are highly encouraged over the recent finds and predict a permanent camp because of the pay being found at such a depth as 40 feet About 200 people are now in the camp Several outfits with pack horses will start packing supplies to the camp from Copper Center as soon as the trail begins to dry up.
 CHITINA, June 2.-Reports re- ceived here yesterday from the Nell china placer camp state that there is pay on five creeks. Eight outfits are now at work sluicing and good re- turns are expected. The camp is very short of provisions, but it is expected that with the betterment of trails shortly pack outfits will relieve the situation.

II. S. TRADE PICKS UP
AFTER DEPRESSION

Der Exceeded Imports

merce showed marked recuperation dur
ing September from the effects of the
war, according to statistics of exports

ures will be used by Secretary Redfield

basis of letter to the party political
managers.

September in favor of this country, ex-
ports during the month exceeding i'm
ports BY $l6,0s4 ,523 as compared with a
surplus of imports of $l9400,356 during
August, when the war depression was
most acute.
Secretary Redfield pointed out yester-
day that the increased purchase abroad
OF American products is largely due to
reopening Of foreign traffic lines, the new
American ship registration law and the
government war risk insurance bureau.

against Sl7l, 0s4, s43 in September, 1913

Der exports aggregated Sl56.ls6,79o

larger than those during August, while
September exports were $45,s2l ,296
more than those in August
