REASONS TOLD

Small Bakers, Says New
York Witness.
DENIES ANY COERCION
DENIES ANY COERCION
Reputation of Testimony by Bread
Wagon Driver May Result in
Charge of Perjury.

New York. March 2-George S. Ward
vice president of the Ward Baking Com.
pany. was on the stand for two hours to-
day at the State investigation into the
| boost in the price OF bread.
The principal points of Mr. Wards tes-
timony were an emphatic denial Of the
charges OF coercion OF the retail trade,
an admission of signal recent attention
paid by the company TO Jefferson Lasher
the driver, whose recent reputation Of
testimony may result In a perjury charge.
and the r,uuidiation of charges in a sem
satiOnal laph story that came from
Boston
The ! tory carried a statement
made b, ttor James O. Jordan. of
the Bosto ard of health. in a report
to Mayor Curley. The report declared
that certain bakeries in New York and
Boston are making bread which con-
tains calcium sulphate, otherwise known
as plaster of paris. or gypsum, the ma
terial used in making plaster casts.
THE combination of this mixture. even
in small quantities, with flour in bread
be classed as swindle," declared In
spector Jordan.
sample Analysed.
sample of powdered compound used
by the bakers was analysed as follows:
Calcium sulphate. "A per cent; sodium
chloride. N90 per cent; ammonium chlor-
ide. 1l.5O per cent; plain flour. 500 per
cent.
In answering a question as to whether
the Ward bakeries had a secret process
OF bre4d-ulaking similar TO that described.
Mr. Ward said that three students In the
laboratory of the University of Pittsburgh
made discovery three years ago that
certain salts used in minute quantities
hastened the process of fermentation
and lessened the amount of yeast needed
The process had since been patented and
is now in use in all the Ward bakeries
He declared that the company had re-
ccived expert assurance that the new
process vas beneficial in every way. 1t
was recently patented. and patents are
now applied for in foreign countrics. lie
refused to give the COmponents.
Whether there is bread trust op-
erative in New York City and whether
the recent boost In the price of bread
came of a conspiracy were the two main
points at which Deputy Attorney Cen
eral Alfred l.. Becker directed his inves-
tigation today. George S. Ward. vice
president of the Ward Baking Company.

CABLE GOES OUT
 0F COMMISSION
Burnside Is Believed to Be at Seattle and Break Is North of Sitka.
 Business Interrupted.

The government cable went out of commission yesterday afternoon at 4:3O and the local office has been un- able to raise Sitka, showing that the break is on this end of the line. In consequence of the interruption of it's cable service, the Prospector is un- able to supply it's readers with its usually excellent telegraphic service.
 It is feared that several days and possibly weeks will lapse before the break is repaired, as the cableship Burnside is at Seattle and usually consumes several days in preparing for the trip northward after she has been notified that the string has parted.
 To make matters worse, owing to the many changes in the Signal Corps staffs at the different stations, the Cordova office is>reported to short of men to handle the business offered by the wireless when the cable is out of commission.
 The Prospector has received ap- peals from a number of Alaskan pa- pers to save their lives by sending the doings of the court or other local happenings. The Dominion line is reported working to Dawson and dis patches for the Prospector will be routed over the Canadian line if the cable fails to connect with the wire less at Whiteshed.

the officials. When no trace of the missing man could be found, the may or ordered MT. Hockey to investigate the cabin in which Short lived, as it was believed that he might possibly have papers of value to his relatives. Among the papers found in the young mans trunk were a number of let ters from his parents in London, a letter of recommendation from Sen ator Sulzer, of Sulzer, Alaska, for whom he had formerly worked. He was also a member of the Loyal Or der of Moose at Ketchikan, and a member of the Western Federation of Miners at Ketchikan.
 MT. Hockey wrote the parents of the young man explaining the circum- stances of his disappearance and their letter is in reply to the commu- nication bearing them the sad news of their sons possible death. The parents are hopeful that in some way their son escaped the fate which the search party fear overlook him. The father writes that while Louis was always venturesome and had utmost faith in himself being able to accom- plish what he set out to do, he was kind and considerate of his parents and others. He never failed to cor respond regularly with his mother no matter where he might be, and occa- sionally sent her sums of money to reassure her that he was not in need and was getting along well.

STRIKE LEAD IN
 GRANITE UPRA|SE Miners Report that Lead Carries Width and Values and That Ore
 is in Sight for Months.

Miners arriving in Valdez yester- day from the Granite Mine, at Hobo Bay, bring the news that the lead has been tapped by miners working in the upraise and that the lead carries it's size and apparently is as high grade as near the surface.
 Senator B. F. Willard has verified the report that the lead had been struck in the upraise but stated that until assays of the ore had been made to determine it's values, he preferred to make no announcement regarding the values of the ore. Senator Mill
 lard states that where the ore was encountered is about 160 feet below the surface and that ore sufficient to keep the mill running for many months has now been blocked out.

PAY IS LOCATED ON
 SEVEN BENCH CLAIMS.

That a paystreak has been defi- nitely located on at least seven claims along the third tier bench of Livengood, counting every 20 acres as a claim, is the report of James Beck, the well known mining man, who returned recently from a trip of investigation to the new diggings. Counting No. 10, second tier, pay has been located on eight claims all told.
 However, according to MT. Beck. all of the prospectors working from 2 above to 10 above on the third tier are in pay dirt which will go $1.25 to $1.50 to the square foot of bedrock. The paystreak is known to be at least 15O feet wide in places, although in other places it is not more than 60 feet wide. Its width however, on all the claims yet re- mains to be determined.-News-Min- CT, Fairbanks.
