SUSPICIOUS DEATH
 OF MRS. GE|GER

The Goldfleld, New, Daily Tribune, of May 25, contains the following ac. count of the death of a former we'll known Cordovan, and her many friends here will be pained to learn of her untimely demise: "The remains of Mrs. George Geiger, wife of the assistant superintendent of the South. ern Pacific railway, were found dead in bed at Imily, have been shipped to Blaineville, Texas, for interment. According to word from Winnemucca there is an air of mystery surrounding the case and it has been lntimated from several sources that the affair is being hushed up. all of which leads to the opinion that Mrs. Gelger com mitted suicide"

CHIEF CLERK EAMEs
 BOOSTS WESTWARD TRIP

That the opportunity presented to tourists by the Santa Ana to see the most interesting of all parts of Alaska, the district to the west of Seward, is first class, Is the opinion of Alvah Flames, chief clerk of the Rail way mail service, who came on that vessel last evening. He speaks in the highest terms also of Captain Hansen and the other officers and the crew of the vessel. The Santa Ana has some thing which the Dora needed badly. and that is a cold storage which keeps the meat fresh for the return journey. MT. Flames has advertised for bids for next winters mall service for the Bristol Bay points, Nushagak, billing. ham and Naknek. He has advertised both from Cold Bay and Seldovia but only one contract will be let which will be supplied from one or the other of those points. Mir Flames will take a trip to Anchorage on the Alameda to look over postoffice matters there.- Seward Gateway.

DISTRICT COURT A I SEWARD
 TOMORROW

SEWARD, May fudge F. NJ. Brown, Court Stenographer I. Ham, burger, Clerk of the Court Arthur Lang and Deputy Clerk Miss Mono han, Deputy Marshal Clarence Miss man and Frank North, the jury panel, have arrived from Valdez on the spe- cial term of the district court which convenes tomorrow.
 The litigation relative to the Sew ard townsite property. the complaint in which case was telegraphed from Seattle and has to do with the Alaska Northern Railroad and the Ballaines, will be aired at this term. Judge Brown, in accordance with past rul- ings, orders the entire matter placed | on the Seward calendar for the reason that all matters connected with the litigation are properly matters to be determined at Seward. In this suit Judge Morford representing Frank l.. Ballaine, and Senator Ray, represent ing John k. Ballaine, have filed de- murrers attacking the original com plaint filed by T. c. West of San Fran cisco and Donohoe & Dimond of Val dez, and also attacking the complaints in intervention filed by Judge Green on behalf fo Shedd Brothers of Chi cago and J. P Thompson of Montreal. These demurrers will be heard and determined by Judge Brown this week at Seward.
 The federal government has filed it's complaint in intervention in the suit brought by Otto R.( Hansen against the Alaska Northern, Roland, Jem- melt and Laberee, in which action Hansen claims certain former bond holders of the old Alaska Central Rail- way were ignored in the sale made some years ago under the order of former Judge Overfeld.

the Daily Times that he had just shipped a good-sized order to Anchor age, for the Alaska Engineering Com mission. This bill of goods was sold on competitive bid from the mer- chants of Seward and other Alaskan towns, and Cordova quoting the low est prices the order came here.
 Mir Blum says that he has also been successful in furnishing the Depart ment of Commerce with the necessary supply of provisions for their light houses in Alaska. He secured all of the business he bid on, excepting for Cape St. Elias, and in this case was only BIO higher than the successful bidder. In addition to supplying Cape Hinchinbrook, his firm will also ship all the provisions for Cape Sarichef and Scotch Gap, in Southeastern Alaska.
 When it is taken into consideration that seven merchants of Seattle and Alaska submitted bids for these sup plies and Cordova was awarded the business, it is the best evidence that as an outftting place this town leads.

WESTWARD CANNER|Es
 IN FULL OPERATION

The canneries to the westward have started fin their seasons operations and several of them have already had big catches. The King Cove cannery has commenced to pack. The Uyak cannery made their first catch few days ago with a haul of 10,200 fish at the south end of Kodiak Island. The Blodgett cannery Is already putting up king salmon at Kodiak where that fish has now been running. Last sea son was SO successful and the price of salmon has gone so high as result of the war that much activity is ex- pected this year in the fishing indus try.

FINE COPPER ORE SH0W|NGS IN
 KUSKUL|NA
tContlnued from Page D

tContlnued rom Page thoroughly impregnated with arsinica iron. Stringers an inch or two thick have been found carrying free gold; assays of which have run up as high as s200,000 per ton. Other portions of the lead are said to give high values in gold while 1t all carries a high per cent of copper. Five claims have been located. These parties met with quite a loss in the burning of their living quarters. Most of their supplies and tools were lost.
 The property should be opened and developed at once. to ascertain the extent of this rich deposit. A pump ing plant will be required To get rid of surface water as there is but little chance for drainage.
 N. A. Brown has five claims located as an extension of the Canning group and has uncovered the ore at a depth of 4S feet He has built good living cabin and planted a garden. He is entitled to much credit as he accom- plished the work all alone during the past winter even to the sinking of the shaft, climbing up and down a ladder to hoist the dirt.
 On the same creek upon which the Canning claims are located, but near It's mouth and close to the Kotsina River. John Bellows has location of copper claims. He has driven a tunnel 50 feet into a mineralized zone and opened up some chalcopyrite ore.
 This is the extent of my investiga- ton of the Kuskulina country and I feel sure there will be several low grade copper properties developed in that section that will prove big pro ducers. Concentration, however, will be necessary.
 Nothing can be accomplished in the way of producing mines until the Boring River coal is available and transportation rates reduced. The country has plenty of timber for min ing purposes for years to come and power could be developed in the Kus. kulina to quite an extent, which would cheapen mining operations. l secured samples from many of the properties which are on exhibit at the Chamber of Commerce rooms.
 There are at least 10000 acres of first class agricultural lands in the vicinity of Strelna. This land can be made to produce practically all the supplies that the mining population oi the Kuskulina will ever use. Irriga tion will be necessary, but this is a simple matter from the Strelna river Several homesteads have already been taken up. V. J. Dwyer has 32O acres Jack Walsh. 32O acres, Geo. Wolf 32O acres and there are others whose names I did not get. All have good gardens growing and homes erected and the country Is beginning to take on the aspect of a new agricultural district. Grazing land can be found on Cow Creek and at the head of the Kuskulina for thousands of head of cattle and sheep. Stock do we'll from May 1st to October 1st. but would require feed after that time, all oi which can be produced right in the vicinity.
 Altogether my trip was very satis factory and return home more con vinced than ever. that this section oi Alaska will eventually produce large wealth.
