MILL LOSES SMALL
 FORTUNE DAILY

Five hundred and forty.lour dollars are daily going Co waste in the big black cataract Of tanings that pours from the base of the Alaska Gastin- eau's mill at Thane. Boiled down to closer figures. the gold which escapes extraction in the big mill runs, on the average. seventeen cents to the ton. The mill is now crushing about 5.200 tons Of rock in twenty-four hours.
 Officials of the Alaska Gastineau Mining Company expect to save what is now going to waste every day as soon as the rereatment plant is com pieted. This plant is expected to save at least half ol the values that are now being lost in taiiings. and when Che mill gets up to its maximum ca pacity the saving win amount to somewhere in the ueighborhood of Sl7.5S4 annually.
 At Chichagoif the loss is much higher than that at the Thane mill. al- though the tonnage at Chichagoff Is far less than that oi the local mill. At Chichagoff Supt. James l.. Free burn has built an impounding dam hopper where the tauings are being collected. The black sand. a great mound of which has been accumulat- ed. will yield thousands of dollars some day. it is predicted

BULGARIA IS ARMING; FOR
 WHAT PURPOSE?

LONDON, Sept. 2S.-Is Bulgaria to enter the war, and on whose slde?- or is that country mobilizing its army for the purpose of maintaining an arm- ed neutralityi
 The Bulgarian situation has furnish- ed diplomats here with the most com pllcated puzzle since the opening of the war over a year ago.
 A dispatch from Sofia last night said that the Bulgarian premier had announced that the signing of the convention between Turkey and Bul- garia was for the sole purpose of maintaining the neutrality of Bulgar- ia, yet doubt was expressed here that such was the motive Of Bulgaria, and no confirmation of the report was re- ceiyed today. It is known that the Bulgarian government has comman- deered the railroads and is working the war munitions plants on over time.

ENGINEER BELIEVES
 NORRIS GLACIER IS
 FAR FROM INACTIVE

That Norris Glacier. locally known as a dead glacier" and located but a short distance to the left of Taku Glacier is one Of the most interesting phenomenas in Southeastern Alaska is the impression Of Howard R. Ward. a member of the Alaska Gastineau Mining Ccmpany's force of engineers. This summer Mr. Ward had opportun- ity of examining the glacier. and his theory that the huge field of ice is not inactive is supported by c. l.. An drews. who recently contributed an article on the subject. which was pub nshed in The Empire.
 "The canyon that the glacier fol- lows" MT. Ward said last evening. runs north for about a mile and a half. and at this point a branch can yon enters from the west. This lat ter branch canyon contains no ice, though 1t undoubtedly was once filled with an arm of the glacier. This sum- mer the lower part of the branch can yon was filled with water. forming a lake about mile long, a quarter of @ mile wide and apparently 75 or 100 feet deep The lake seemed to be damned by Norris glacier. which blocks the branch canyon. The shore line had a high water mark at least % feet higher than the water level when I saw it in August. l have since met others who have looked in the canyon. some reporting a lake there and some only @ dry basin and it seems evident that at least twice dur ing the last four years the lake has found an outlet under the glacier, either due to water or action or else to movement in the glacier.
 This lake then is evidently the source Of the immense rushes of wa ter at the foot Of the glacier. not @ glacial flood under the ice. as Mir. Andrews suggests; and if the lake is suddenly released. as seems probable, the amount of water rushing down there truly must be tremendous and probably causes great changes in the terminal moraine at the foot of the glacier. The alternate damming and releasing of the lake undoubtedly strengthens the supposition that Nor ris glacier is still in motion and ac- tive.
 About a mile farther up the main Norris glacier another side canyon enters from the west. This canyon bed is still covered deep with ice. being another arm Of the glacier prop CT. It is deeply creyassed but the surface is otherwise quite level. prob ably indicating little motion in this branch"

DEADLOCK HOLDS UP
 WAR LOAN

NEW YORK. Sept. 23.-Deadlock. ed on the terms of the loan, the An glo-French borrowing commissioners at noon today ended 9 14-hour contin- uous session. The commissioners met at 10 o'clock last night in tho Bit more Hotel, with a number of Amer ican fnanciers. including J. p. Morg- an, and representatives of a number of banks
 One of the statements made by Lord Reading, one of the borrowing commissioners, was as follows:
 "The plan of the joint financial commission. is to borrow $1,000,000,- 900 in the United States on straight British and French government bonds without any collateral whatever"
 If this vast sum of money is ob- tained, 1t was said, 1t is to be spent to the last cent in Che United States in payment of cotton. wheat and meat and many commodities ship ments. including munitions of war.
 It will, therefore. in the opinion of financial authorities, be classified as commercial loan.
 Lord Reading continued:
 'We have received @ very consid- erable number of persons. prominent bankers and other gentlemen who arc interested in the stability of exchange.
 "The one thing that is very strik- ing about it Is that everybody iB agreed. as one would expect. in the great importance to be attributed to regulating the exchange so as to pro- vide more stable conditions than has been the case recently.
 ''The sudden and considerable drop in the exchange naturally disturbs and must disturb commercial relations be- tween the countries - the United States and Great Britain and France -inasmuch as 1t makes it SO difficult to see ahead what the rate of ex- change will be; and moreover. be- cause naturally it makes such a ma terial difference in the prices to be received by the American and the prices to be paid by the Englishman and Frenchman.
 "There Is a consensus of opinion that 1t is eminently desirable that some step be made by which stability of this exchange can be secured You have hero in the States very large sur pluses of foodstuffs and other mater ial which you want to export We, on the other hand. want to import those goods. and to the commercial man nothing is more difficult than to arrange fixed prices when there is instability such as we have had re- gently in exchange"

ATTACK ON DVINSK IS
 TERRIFIC

LONDON, Sept. 2s.-FieId Marshal von Hindenburg has commenced t. tanic assault on strongly fortified Dvinsk (Dunaburg) located on the Dylna river 1sO miles southeast of RI- ga. and the key to Petrograd. The city is being subjected to a terrific bombardment, the Germans using the 42 centimetre guns that reduced fif. teen Russian fortresses since the eastern campaign. and zeppelins are reported to be dropping aspyxiatlng bombs on the streets at frequent in- teryals Meanwhile the civilian popu- lation has been ordered to leave Dvinsk and Minsk. The latter city is 200 miles south.
 According to Petrograd advices, Dvinsk has become the new German objective, now that the Russian ar- mics apparently have escaped from Wilma, along the railroad to Dvinsk. The German hordes east and south east of Lida ar making more rapid progress but their increased speed at this time is expected to gain them but little, in view of the fact that the safe retreat of the greater part of the Russian forces now seems to be as- sured. The Russians are in flight to- ward Minsk. where they will make their next stand against the invaders.
 Berlin claims the capture of Ostrog, on the Goryn river. just across the Galician border and 1t is believed that the Austro-German troops are attempt ing to enyelop the Russians operating in that section.
