THOUSAND MEN
ON RAILROAD
CHAIRMAN EDES SAYS MORE
BEING USED AS THE
EQUIPMENT ARRIVES

The number Of men now employed
in the construction of the government
railroad out of Anchorage is just
about nine hundred and fifty, accord
ing to Chairman VIM. c. Edes, of the
engineering commission, who returned
yesterday from a visit to the scene.
The very large majority of the men
working are station men. Mr.. Edes
estimates the number of station men
at about three quarters of the total.
In addition to the construction work a
large receiving warehouse and some
small houses for the members Of the
executive staff are being constructed.
The grading and clearing is progress
ing very well and lumber and tools
are being shipped constantly, so en-
abling the commission to put more
men to work. Mr.. Edes has nothing
to say yet about any future work and
is not ready to speak about the AL
aska Northern, work thereon or any
thing in connection with it. Auditor
Barndollar returned with him.

u. S. OFFICIALS
ARREST HUERTA
is CHARGED WITH CONSPIRACY
TO START ANOTHER
REVOLUTION.

Ell PASo, June 2S.-General
Victoriano Huerta, former president
of Mexico, has been arrested here on
the charge of conspiring to start an
other revolution in the neighbOring
republic. The government has also
been requested to place a strong
guard on the border as Huerta's sup
porters are said to be preparing to
cross over to start hostilities. His
force consists of fourteen generals
and five thousand men supplied with
machine guns and ammunition. His
supporter General O-osco has also
been arrested and both are under
bonds, Huerta's bonds being in the
sum of fifteen thousand dollars. He
denies that he had any intention of
fighting and declares that he came to
Ell Paso merely to visit his daughter.
He predicts that the present war in
Mexico will last five years and that
the country will be ruined as result.

ANCHORAGE men
WANT DRAWING
PETITIoNING GOVERNMENT TO
PREVENT SALE OF CITY
LOTS BY AUCTION.

Three petitions have been circulated
at Anchorage, according to G, G. Refs,
the travelling man, who came over
yesterday, and these petitions were to
be sent to Washington protesting
against the sale Of the townsite lots
by auction. The petitioners ask that
the lots be drawn for and they de-
clare that in sale by auction a few
men may come from the outside with
money and corner the whole thing.
The petitions were to have been sent
here yesterday and cabled to Wash
ington but Mr.. Refs does not know
whether they actually came. He was
asked to bring them but other ar
rangements were decided upon. The
greatest dissatisfaction is felt over
the plan of auction. 1t was stated by
another man that about thousand
nam es had been secured for the petit
ton when he was there.

near the city of Anchorage and is
now pressing for the trial Of the suit
at the Knik term of court on July 13.
Mr.. Jeter through his attorneys l.. V.

a postponement as he declares it will
be impossible for him to be ready to

fendant states that he has been on the
ground since 1910 and that he full
filled all the requirements necessary
to hold a homestead.

Cable Signed by Manager of Team

A cable was received today signed

will come to play Seward on July
Fourth if its expenses are paid. The
former cables, including the one which
said that the team would not come,
were signed by DR.. Council and the
local baseball magnates are placed in
quandary by the fact that no name
is signed. There is a sort Of a feeling
abroad now that Seward might pos
sibly not get the worth of its money
by bringing a poor team which would
probably net mind making a poor
showing in exchange for a holiday.

another terrific attack on the Warsaw lines through
Przasnysz which is directly north of the Polish capital
The attack was preceded by frghtful bombardment.

BROAD PASS.
"The Rand of Alaska"

(From The All-Alaska Review
The latest reports from the Broad
Pass district are highly encouraging
and it is now safe to assert that the
district will prove, in the near future,
one of the most important gold camps
in all Alaska. Indeed, the district has
been named the "Rand of Alaska"
and evidences are not lacking that it
justifes this congnomen. There are
some fifty miners in the district, all
filled with hope and expectancy for
the future, and industriously engaged
in developing claims already located or
seeking unbound lodes. Two towns
have been located both at the mouth
of Colorado creek, one on each side
of the stream. One is called Colorado
City, the other Wellsville. A store
and roadhouse combined is being in
stalled at the mouth of Indian river,
the head Of boat navigation on the
ChuEtna river.
The geology of the Broad Pass dis
trict indicates that the limestOnes,
sandstones, argillites and cherts Of
the Paleozoic age have been tilted by
an upheaval of diorite. These sedi-
mentaries have a northeasterly and
southwesterly strike and are cut by
an eruptive, probably andescite. The
soft limestones have been replaced by
contact metamorphism, resulting in a
series of large chambers Of mineral
of commercial Importance, which con-
sists of quartz, arsenOpyrite predomi-
mating. Occasionally, chalcopyrite
and stibnite accompany the arsenical
pyrite, and more rarely galena and
zinc blende. The area on which ore
shoots are exposed is about eight
miles in length and over 200 feet in
width. Gold and silver occur in the
arsenical pyrite. 1t is believed that
most of the ore, will respond to the
cyanide treatment, permitting the
erection of plants on the ground.
When the ore contains copper, smelt-
er treatment will be required.
Nature has done much to aid the
prospector in the Broad Pass country.
The great mineralized zone character
istic of the country may be traced by
a yellowish stain emanating from the
arsenic. The country abOunds in wild
game life, moose and caribou being
plentiful. There is a good quality OF
coal in the heart of the district.
The Guggenheims are the most
active in development in the Broad
Pass. They have options on a score
of claims and are driving long tun-
mel to crosscut the mineralized zone.
Results thus far are very encouraging.
