SIcCARTHY SELLS
 HIS HOLDINGS ON
 LIvENGOOD GREEK

FAIRBANKS. July 12- Without doubt, Che best sign that the Toioyana district is to develop into a good rich camp is Che fact that conservative mining men are investing in Che prop erty on Livengood and other creeks. By deals put through yesterday two wen-knowu mining men took over some extensive interests in che Tolo- vana. Dan Mccarthy sold out an his interests on Livengood creek to sam Godfrey for S32.0OO J. w. McCord sold out all the holdings that he had to Luther c. Hess for price not stated.
 MT. Godfrey was in Fairbanks in the early days of the camp and later mined at Ruby and lditarod He made a careful investigation and examined with caution the property which he purchased before he signed @ paper or paid a cent As he is considered a conservative mining man the fact that he bought at any price is en- couraging.
 MT, Hess has acquired mining prop erty in almost every mining camp in Interior Alaska. and the fact that he has invested in Tolovana ground encourages many prospectors and others who have holdings in the new camp.
 Both purchasers are we'll satisfied with the reports they have received from the Tolovana within the last few days. and both hope to have their property working before the end os the summer
 Although he has been in the inter- for but little more than four months Mir. Mccarthy has made a small for tune in his activities in the Toloya- ma. Within the next week or ten days he win leave for the States to visit relatives and friends in Califor- nia.-( Fairbanks Times)

 -,,-
 WASHINGTON. D. c. Aug 2.-To add another interesting feature to the events of the forthcoming 49th annual encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic ln Washington the Citi- zens Committee which has the mat ter in charge is endeayoring to ar- range for an exhibition during the week Of September 27 Oct. 8, a wonderful collection of historic war relies. Washington is filled with re- minders of the great struggle; many of these relics are owned and held by the government but the average visitor sees feV of them It is plann- ed to extend a special courtesy to the old veterans and allow them am op- portunity to view some of these high. ly prized treasures.
 ln a fire-proof vault of the Treas ury building, are the manuscript ar- chives which set forth the diplomatic efforts of the Confederacy to secure recognition as a member Of the fam fly of nations and to obtain the means to establish a navy and maintain an army
 When the most important of the Confederate Archives were removed from Richmond. the diplomatic cor respondence, consisting of the State Department" records. except the sec ret service papers, which had been destroyed by Judah P Benjamin con- federate secretary of state, were hid den in a barn in Virginia Later they were packed in four yellow trunks, and brought from Richmond to Wash mgton by their custodian. Col. John r. Pickett. After endeavoring for years to dispose of them, Col Pickett, having indexed them. took them to Canada. where in April, 1872, these trunks and their contents were pur- chased for the use of the United States On July 8. 1872 they were de- livered to the government Pickett in payment received the stipulated sum of s75,0OO, a large portion of which was distributed to needy wid- ows and orphans of Confederate sol- diers.
 The money for the Pickett papers, had been appropriated by special act of Congress. Many persons insisted that no good could result from the resurrection of these long-buried doc ments. even 1T genuine, as some feared they were not However time has demonstrated the wisdom of the pvr- chase. The names in the indices of the Pickett papers have been of great value to the government in connec- ton with war claims and otherwise.
 In small dark room under the caves of the South wing of the treas ury there stands seven large pack ing boxes with covers nailed down. Sightseers are never permitted to en- ter this dingy attic room, and very few persons, even among the oldest employees. could guess the contents of the boxes. They are filled with Confederate money a portion of it having been captured from Southern banks and from dead or living Con- federate soldiers and forwarded to the treasury through the War Depart ment. The larger share of this mon ey was collected by the Treasury agents who conducted the cotton business of the United States in 1864 and succeeding years.
