 "The postal authorities replied that there already was Fort Will liam II.

EIGHT HOUR LAW MAKES
 FAIRBANKS MINES CLOSE.

FAIRBANKS, July 14.-The placer miners of the Panama and other in- terior camps are facing a serious sit uation, owing to the eight-hOur act passed by the Territorial legislature, which became effective as a law July 11th.
 Nearly all of the deep placer mines in this viciAlty shut down when the law became effective, as the Op- orators declared they could not oper- ate three eight-hour shifts and pay the schedule of $5 per day and board.
 A few, however reOpened by an agreement with their men to try the experiment of paying $4 per day and board.
 The majority of the mines are still closed and the situation is serious.
 The unfortunate part of it is that the law becomes effective in the mid dle of the short five months season during which time the operators must make the most of the water running,
 What the final outcome will be, IS still a matter of speculation. Mostly all of the operators are agreed that one result will be the reduction of the wage schedule to $4 per day for eight hours, with three shifts during the open season when the wat CT is running, and possibly two shifts for the higher grade ground in doing deadwork and getting out dumps dur ing the winter months.
