 PROGRAM

It was definitely decided today by the Maska.Juneau Gold Mining Co, that $500 feet of the eompany's tun- uels leading rom the mill to the ore system will be double-tracked, that tho capacity of transporting rock from mines to mill may be multiplied
 Philip R. Bradley, superintendent of the Treadweu mines. and consult ing engineer for the AlaskaJuneau property this morning. told The Elm pire that the work of widening the tunnels for the laying of the second track would start immediately. and would be steadily pushed.
 About she Reduction Mill.
 "our progress will be one of steady development of our mine. in order to block out tremendous tonnage Of ore. and have it ready by the time our mill is completed" Mir. Bradley said. We are going to do some grad ing for the mill this summer, but the mal will not be built until late next year. as the work in the mine must come first. We are going to experi- ment with the Marcy type of mill. and. if it does wha- is expected of it, We will install this type of mill ma chinery. building an S.OOO-ton plant"
 AIr Bradley pointed out that the Alaska,Juneau property when com pared with the Treadwell property. is virtually undeveIoped. aud empha- sized the importance Of opening up a great quantity of ore. in order that when the mill. as finally completed. is ready to receive the rock. it will not have to wait for ore enough to keep t going to its full capacity.
 Work 10 be Gradual.
 "Our work will be steady. but gradual. Mir. Bradley continued. We will do some grading this year. and some next year. but think that the mill will not be built until year from now. which would guarantee it's completion before December l. 1916"
 At the present time there are over 800 men at work in the Alaska-Juneau mine. under Superintendent Jack Richards. and every effort is being made by the company to rush the de- yclopment of its workings.
 The offer of the company to buy from John Reck. Jules B. caro and sam Kohn. their claims at the summit of the Father Brown trail. was re- jected by the owners of the property. and it was after this that Mir. Brad Icy and J. H. Richards decided to go ahead with the double-tracking of the old tunnels. The amount offered for the claims was S25.OOO The com pany wanted the property as a right of.way for a proposed new tunnel. and not as mine. 1t was said.
