 BEST NELCHINA PROSPECTS
l.. F. Shaw, Former Commissioner Of That Camp Gives Resume
 Of DOings

l.. F. Shaw former commissioner of the Nelchina, tells the following story of that camp:-
 "Charles Anderson, former Sew ardite, has located the most likely looking gold creek in the Nelchina dis trict, with the possible exception of Albert. This stream he calls Gold creek. It is located in the Big Ochelna country. Encouraging pros poets are reported, the gold being of different character than found elsewhere in the district. It is, what is termed shot gold, heavy and coarse. The Albert creek gold is termed Pumpkin seed" because of its flat, thin character. A tributary of Gold creek, called Reed creek, is regarded as containing good pay. Anderson, Bud Tolson and John Corigi are pros pecting there. They will later be joined by Frank Reed and Andy Berg lind, now in Valdez.

 The Christofrerson party of six, will prospect a group of claims on Crook ed creek located at the mouth of Al bert and Poor Mans creeks. If crooked contains pay,this part is con sidered the most likely place to find it.
 Mehncke, Meredith and Bertch have found a good prospect on a small tributary of Leigh creek. They will ] do development this coming winter Decker and associates have sunk a shaft 19O feet in depth on No. 19 bench, Crooked creek, with no bedrock in sight.

PRAISES THE BARGE CANAL

Albany, n Y, July %. Major
G. O. Sheriff. of the United States
Engineering Corps, who recently
made a trip over the entire length
of the Barge canal, predicts that the
first notable effect of its completion
will undoubtedly be largely to re-
duce railroad freight rates to New
York city; and if these rates can
not be lowered to the point where
water transportation on the canal
is not profitable, then the large COM
merce over the canal is assured. ;"
Major Sheriff. holds that the mosc
important step for the State to take
is to forbid absolutely the railroads
discrimination in favor of
points on the canal against those in
accessible to it. This policy en-
ables the railroads to kill water
competition, at the same time maxi
ing the off-water points pay, through
excessive rates, their losses on ship
ments to water points.

not consider the consular service
very efficient in extending American
ihnuence in a business and CONNER
cial way and the new plan Is 10 De
broadened so that gradually Amer
lean interests may be brought INTO

Will Be Protected
tBy Associated Press.

Washington, July 23.-Dispatches
today from the headquarters of rival
Mexican factions indicated that
|f.hting there had almost ended.

in more or less harmony. Carothers
is with Villa and is trying to i'm
press him with the Importance of
cooperation, and John R. Silliman,
with Carranza, is doing the same.
Dispatches from Mexico City this
morning said that District Governor
lturbide had announced the signing
of an armistice between the federals
and constitutionalists which gives
full guarantee of safety to everybody.
1t is said that Carranza has been in
with the capital and
it is believed that he is opposed to
granting amnesty to political offend
ers. United States treasury officials
along the Mexican line today were
instructed to be specially watchful
to prevent the shipment of war ma
terials into Mexico. The admins
tration is determined to prevent a
revolution.
