They figured there that Murphy
would beat him. Murphy, before

made Murphy look like punching

Richie met Charley White, in Mil

the lightweight division. Out there
the fans say White gave Richie a
beating. Richie denies it. But
Richie says he is perfectly willing
to take on White again at any time

Richie went to England to fight
Welsh He knew before going tina:
he either would have to knock out
the Briton or lose. The American
style of aggressiveness doesn't figure
there except against him. The duck
ing and running counts for points.
Richie knew that-he was aware
that such a way was Welsh's style. But
he didn't squirm out of the scrap.
He showed that he doesn't own
a yellow streak.
Richie was a popular champion.
He made friends with the fans be-
cause he always was willing to give
item the best he had And that
was considerable OF course, Richie
haggled a lot about his price. Put
that's what every other man does.
He wants the most he can get for
his services.
Arthur Pelky has announced his
from the ring. He never
has been able to get back his nerve
since his fight with Luther Nc
Carly. 1t was Pelky's blow in the
second round Of that fight that sent
,McCarty down to his death. The
shock unsettled Pelky's nerves and
he never since has fought even a
fair fight There always was sort
of timidity about his actions. He
was afraid to hit.

Experts Boost Prospects Of Broad Pass
Will Be A|aska's Best Camp, They Say

There is an abundance of good coal
at hand and, with transportation,
the problem of treating the ore will
offer no serious difficulties. Wolf
and Tut staked nine claims on
what is known as the Mammoth
and Gold Star ledge. This ledge
is known to be more than twelve
hundred feet in width and is solid
ore from rim to rim. 1t is con-
tinuation of the Wells lead and
the locations are six miles south of
the Wells property. The Wells
property, on the same lead where
the ledge runs about $50 feet in
width, has a streak of ore IA feet
in width that an average assay for
the IA feet gives values in excess
of $3.50 per ton while the ledge
for the entire width will average
in the vicinity Of SIS.
There have been about thirty-five
men in the new country this summer
and all have made satisfactory loca-
tions and are well pleased with the
property that they have secured.
The work of development has been
greatly handicapped on account of
the wet weather that has prevailed
and coupled with the fact that owing
to a lack Of trails it has been ex-
tremely difficult to get grub and
tools into the country to carry on
any development work. The govern
ment engineers, however, are build
ing a good trail and this will be of
great benefit to the prospectors next

Our Mineral Supply.

Our Mineral supply.
Probably no other nation in the
world so nearly approaches absolute
independence in respect to mineral
resources as the United States, says
bulletin issued by the Geological
Survey.
A glance at the statistics of min
eral imports affords means of
comprehending in a broad way how
great and complex is the task of
attaining national independence in
the mining. metallurgical, and chem
ical industries Last year the i'm
ports of mineral products, both crude
and manufactured, exceeded $27O,-
100000 OF this total probably $780,
100000 represents raw materials
and crude metals, the value of these
imports being about s per cent of
that of the domestic output In
this list of imports the larger items
named in the order of value are I'M
nitrate of soda, copper ore and matte,
nickel, tin. iron ore, pig iron and
steel. petroleum products, manganese
ores and alloys. platinum, aluminium,
pyrite graphite, stone. potash, and
magnesite. This country has an
abundant supply Of most Of these
mineral products that are now i'm
ported in large amounts, and as to
them it can be independent of for
eign countries The only essential
minerals of the first rank of which
the United States has no known
supply at all commensurate with
it's needs are nitrate, potash salts,
tin, nickel, and platinum, the list
thus comprising two essential min
eral fertilizers and three very use
full metals.

Have Good Thing.

Johnson and Erickson, who have
been working the Williams
property on Mineral creek, came to
town this morning with a brick
weighing ten pounds and valued at
two thousand dollars.
AS the property is under lease by
them, they did not want to go to
the expense of erecting a stamp mill,
until they were assured OF the
values. so they rugged up an arrastra
and made a cleanup yesterday. About
twenty-five tons of ore was put
through averaging $4,000 per ton.

the results and will return tomor-

Seward Gateway: That he has
Just returned from what in the near
future will develop into the great
est camp that has ever been known
in Alaska is the statement made by
AL Wolf who, with his partner, A..
II. Tut, returned yesterday from
the Broad Pass district after sea-
son spent in prospecting and look
ing over the scenes Of the latest
stampedes in Alaska. The country
of which Mr.. Wolf speaks is the
Broad Pass in which he declares
that there exist the most extraordin-
AIRY bodies of ore that have come
under his notice during long and
varied prospecting career
The ore occurs in enormous lodges
or dykes ranging in width from six
hundred feet to a half mile and some
of these great ore deposits have been
traced for a distance Of eighteen
|miles and no doubt will be found
to be a great deal longer when once
their size has been thoroughly DEM
onstrated. The ore is all base and
while rich in gold, silver lead and
zinc will have to be smelted or treat
ed in some manner to extract the
values.

PROSPECTS FLATTERlNG.
| Pankey brothers. of Virginia City.
Mont, who have been in the Broad
Pass section all summer went out on
the Alameda yesterday with about
seventy samples of ore from the
leads located there. They are both
mining engineers of long experience
and are very enthusiastic over the
camp and state that in a life time
spent in mining they have never
seen anything even remotely approach
ing the lodges in the Broad Pass
Idistrict for size and values. They
do not hesitate to say that the
Broad Pass district is the richest
mineralized belt in the world today
and predict that as soon as the
government railroad Is completed to
Broad Pass, it will De the largest
and richest camp in Alaska.
w. II. Taulman and his partner,
Kelly. both we'll known in Seward
have been in the Broad Pass all
summer and have some of the best
ground there and both are firmly
convinced that they have some Of
the best property that has ever been
located in the North.
Messrs Wolf and Tut will remain
in Seward this winter and are plan
ming on taking in a summers outfit
next summer and working on their
property all season.
PREPARE fOH "OHN.
From Gateway, Qater date) That
the Broad Pass country is one of
the greatest mining districts in
Alaska is the general belief which
is now gaining ground according to
Fred Laubner who has just return
ed from the Knik and surrounding
district. The people over there are
already preparing to establish
freight line to the Broad Pass for
the winter, as the recent discoveries
make it certain that a large number
of mining men will be engaged there
from this time forward. Fifty tons
of supplies are now actually wait
ing to be shipped in. The ore will
have to be treated on the spot. but
the lodges are so immense and the
ore is so good that it is regarded
as certainty that great operations
will be commenced there within
very short space of time. The
people around Knik believe it to be
the greatest discovery for many
years. if not the greatest ever made
in Alaska.
Mr.. Laubner will go out on the
Northwestern and hopes to return in
March when the government Off
cally announces that the railroad
work will be commenced from Seward
to the Interior.
