KIDNAPPING CASE MAY DEVELOP
 INTO INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR
Last Man Seen With Missing One Is Arrested in Seattle Passing under Assumed Name-Clains He Only Rented Boat to Stranger and Knows
 Nothing of Whereabouts of Christie.

Juneau, Nov. 16-Wuliam Chris tie, an amalgamatOr in the "7OO' stamp mill at Douglas, disappeared from sight on the evening of Oct. %, and since that time he has not been seen. 4 story was at once circulated that he had been kid mapped, which was substantated by the following details being brought 10 light
 Christie, who was on the 8 o'clock shift at the mill, was called ou at 3:3Q by man who repre- scented himself to be 8 deputy mar shal, and who said his name was Miller. In asking for Christie he said be had Q subpoena and that Christie was required on a case In Juneau immediately. Christie asked him what the case was but Miller said all he knew was that he lCbristie) was wanted as a witness. The subpoena was served and ac- cordug to Nick King, foreman of the mill, Christie signed the paper. Miller then told Christie that he had a boat of his own waiting at the dock and that they would go to Juneau in that bOas instead of waiting for the ferry.
 Mrs. Christie awoke al 8 o'clock on sunday morning and finding that her husband was not iD tho house, went down stairs to unlock the door, thinking that perhaps he had forgotten his key. She unlocked the door and started back upstairs, when she noticed piece of pa per on the second step. Upon Op- euiug it she found it was a note from her husband stating that "they are forcing me to go to Seattle" The note was typewriter and signed by Mir. Christie
 Inquiry at the marshal's office in Juneau only made the mystery deep CT, as nc subpoena had been is sued ter Christie and Miller was no. known in the office.
 Developments following inVestiga- tions conducted by the U. s. mar shal, town marshal and friends of the missing man, soon brought to IIvht the fact that Christie had been kidnapped, and that the man

implicated in the deed was one Ed ward Krause of Petersburg.
 Friends and fraternal associates subscribed $500 as a reward for in- formation that would lead to the capture of Krause, when the eYi- dence clearly pointed him to have been the Miller" who posed as a deputy marshal and spirited Christie away in a launch on the pretext that he was wanted as a witness at Juneau,
 The launch known to have bean owned by Krause, had been located near salmon creek, and has not been seen since the abduction,
 Meantime the mystery grew. The friends of Christie, including his wife declared that Christie must have been murdered. The friends of Krause declared that Kcause was not guilty. Others felt certain that Krause must know by this time that a warrant has been is sued for him and 1t looked bad that he seemed so well able to keep out of the way of the officers. All sorts of boats and launches have covered every part Of Southeastern Alaska and have carried the news of the affair to every native village and nook and corner and bay and inlet so that Krause could hardly help from hearing the news from some source
 The theory was advanced that Christie wanted to disappear and SC. the stage for that express pur- pose.
 It hag been hinted ar an iDcen- tive for the abduction that KrauSe vas infatuated with Mrs. Christie but that Is flatly denied.
 Mrs. Christie declares there is no truth in the statement that Krause was ever infatuated with her, and she denied that he had ever even suggested marriage to her at any time. She said he was a friend of GOeskus, her first hus- band, and always acted towards her like a perfect gentleman.

GOLD
 GOOD INVESTMENT

The Boston News Bureau published and edited by C. W. Barron. who ia also publisher and owner Of the Wall Street Journal, answering a question with reference to the Alaska Gold Mines stock says;
 Alaska Gold gives every indication of becoming successful gold mine. The official estimate of fully develop ed. partially developed and probable' ore is not less than 15.OOO,OOO or 1OO.- OOO,00O tons having a recoverable val ue of S150 per ton. This gives the property assurance of long life. and particularly is this true if as the man agement now anticipates, ultimate pro- duction of this grade of ore will be largely in excess of loO.OoO,OOO tons.
 Alaska Gold is now building a plant Co treat this enormous tonnage By July a min of 5000 tons daily ca pacity will have been completed. ale though Che mine itself will not be able to furnish this tonnage of ore much "N.+Ntt "tttA"tNt AtAHs W tNAtAAA tN AtAA it is possible that dividends may be started, as profits from the treatment of 5000 tons Of ore per day are ex- pected to run about s27O0.O0O per an- num- or about S3.40 per share.
 eAfter the SOoO.ton plant has dem. onstrated its success it is planned to increase the capacity to 10000 tons per day This will undoubtedly re- Quire that additional securities be is. sued-either convertible bonds or stock-so that when Alaska Gold gets up to its contemplated maximum ca- pacity its outstanding shares will probably be about S5OOOO. with all bonds converted.
 "On this capitalization 1t is figured that earnings will be at the rate of sS per share per annum. We believe that Alaska Gold at present prices is an attractive purchase for a mining in- vestment"
