 The latest reports from the mine indicate that by the adoption of an improved type of hotation machine, the grade of concentrates will be very materially raised, without afect- ing the percentage of recovery. This will make for a still lower cost; in fact, it promsies to be one of the most decided improvements effected by the present management.-(Boston News Bureau)

MILL SITES TAKEN
 ON PORTAGE BAY


 VALDEZ. June 2s.-Coh R w. h. Stevenson, who has n contract from the government to cut two million feet or lumber on Portage bay and who is understood to represent large east ern capital, has located eighteen trading and manufacturing sites on ,he shores of Passage canal. The tracts vary iu size from twenty to eighty acres, and surveyors have com |pleted the work of marking the boun' diaries.
 That the lumber to be cut for the ! government at Portage bay is to be used in the construction of the rail. road from Seward or ship creek is doubted by persons posted on the ex- pense of cutting and handling lum- Der In Alaska. lt is claimed that Humber can be shipped in barges from Puget Sound when the shipment amounts to two million feet cheaper than the Alaska product can be light cred to the westward It is believed the lumber will be used by tho gov ernment near where 1t will be cut and che activity of Col. Stevenson in creating the tracts suggest that he lac least, believes that Portage bay sefl has possibilities as government railroad terminal.
 On her next trip to the westward the Northwestern will call at Portage bay to land Col. Stevensons bis mil
 and supplies for his camp and the work Of erecting the mill and other buildings win be -ushed A number of men have been busy for several weeks preparing the ground for th' mill The site is said to possess many advantages for the cheap pro duction of lumber. and the shores o the bay are lined with some of the best timber in Alaska
 The advocates of Portage bay az the terminal for the government rail road have not lost hope, and believe that the activities of the eastern cap italists represented by Col. Steven son indicate that when the cards ar' all on the table that Portage bay vii stil be the winning card. The fac tional fight among the stockholderi and bondholders of the Alaska North ern, 1t is believed will result in th' government abandoning all improve ments on the line this season an' con6ning Its activities to the Shil creek road to the coal fields.
 The possibility of Congresslona investigation to determine why 1t wa necessary for the bondholders of th' Alaska Northern to pay New Yorl brokerage firm $2OO,OOO to convince the administration officials of the ad yantages possessed by the road afte S6OO.0OO had been spent by the engi ueering commission for the express purposes of selecting the superioI route, gives the Portage bay advocates } room for hope that their favorite har ? bor will yet be the terminal of th' . trunk line from tidewater to interior Aiaska.-(Miner9
