RICH STRIKE IN FIDALCO BAY
 MINE

One of the richest strikes yet found in the mine of the Alaska Mines Cor poration at Fidaleo bay, was uncov- cred last week. according to reports received. The strike was made in the fourth or lower level, where the tunnel being run to tap the vein cut through six feet of extremely high grade chalcopyrite ore. The extent of the deposit is not yet known, but it is believed to be extensive. This find demonstrates that the vein con tinues with depth, and in fact. the development so far done has demon Ht~a,ad that the vein not only carries the rich ore which marked the sur face showngs on this property, but that the vein is more persistent and highly mineralized.
 The new strike is the source of the greatest encouragement to the man agement and bears out the predic- tions made that with depth this pro perty would become one of the most profitable in the sound country Mr E. D. Reiter. the general manager for the company, stated that he had never doubted the existence of large body of high grade ore on this property, and the strike was doubly welcome; first as fulfilling his confidence, and sec ond, in placing the property beyond all question as an extremely valuable mine. Disinterested parties who had visited the mine confirm fully all the reports as to the size and richness of the find.

JAPAN HOUSING AMERICAN
 LEPERS

YOKOHAMA, Oct. 4. - The discov- cry of about twenty-five American le- pers in different parts of Japan has become a pressing problem for Ameri- can officials, and for the American As sociatiOn of Japan, which is undertak. ing to secure their transportation to the American leper home in the Ha- waiian islands.
 The lepers have made their way here in recent years with the hope that they might be healed at the ia nous Japanese hot springs, especially those at Kusatsu, which is always crowded with Japanese lepers taking the waters Gradually they have drift ed to missionary Ieper hospitals or have in other ways become burdens on the community. In view of the ex- cellent asylum at Hawaii the Ameri- can Association is taking active steps to secure their removal.
 Leprosy is one of the great ques- tions seeking solution by modern Ja- pan. It is estimated that the lepers of the empire number about 25,000. Five governmental leper asylums were established in 1907, but they accom- mOdate only few thousand. The re- mainder are scattered over the coun- try desperately seeking a cure in the hot springs or publicly begging in the market place or before the temples.
 At the last session of the Diet the Japanese Leprosy Prevention Society petitioned for the establishment of a national leprosarium on some island in the Pacific ocean. The cost of the asylum was estimated at $S,000, ,000, and it's maintenance at $250,OO0 a year. It is believed that at least one-third of the lepers could be housed and treated at once and it was contended by the petitioners that Japana could be cleared of lepers in the course of ten years.

SWEDEN WAN TS TRADE WITT \
 AMERICA

STOCKHOLM, Sweden. Oct 4. - Notwithstanding the many obstacles with which they meet, representatives of American exporting firms here are endeayoring to maintain trade rela- tions between the United States and Sweden so as to be in position to take advantage of the permanent oppor- tunities expected with the conclusion of European peace.
 Prior to the war America played an almost negligible part in the trade of s eden, export and import alike. Dur ing the fiscal year ended June 30, 1915, imports from the United States, how ever, took a leap which carried them up more than 600 per cent above nor nal Then came the tightening of the British blockade and the Swedish war trade act which prohibits an importer from giving guarantees to Great Bri tain covering goods bought in the United States or other neutral coun- tries. Under these adverse influences the trade has rapidly declined, the American imports for the first three months of 1916 having amounted to $12, 2,21359O, against $41. 1.94S,301 in 1915. Although the figures are not avail able here, 1t is said the trade of more | recent months has shown a similar or even greater falling off. The Swe- dish government has adopted the pol. icy of not announcing export or import | figures during the war, and 1t Is re. garded as a misdemeanOr to ask for them. In February, 1916, the imports from the United States amounted to a little more than $2,OOO.OOO, against more than $13O0O,OOO a year ago. In March the decline was from eighteen millions in 1915 to four millions In 1916.
 Enormous as was the increase IT American imports during the fisca year ended June 30, 1915. the first six months of the 1916 fiscal yeal eclipsed former figures for a similar period by nearly $7,OO0,O00.

PLAYING SMART I. POLITICS IN
 PANAMA

PANAMA, Oct. 4. -- With American occupation, 8 goblin before which all Panama politicians stand aghast, ear nest efforts are being made to re- lieve the tension which developed re- gently in the national assembly, and which threatened to cause the inter- yention of the American authorities.
 The trouble had its origin in a coup by which the minority party, or Lib eralConseryatiyes, managed to elect the presiding officer of the assembly, in the absence of several delegates belonging to the government party. When the assembly convened I9 of the B deputies were of the govern ment party, and IA of the opposition. For each deputy there is an alter nate, and the constitution provides that "in the absence Of a deputy whe- ther accidentally or permanently" his alternate may vote in his place The alternates of three of the government deputies were in sympathy with the opposition, The coup consisted of keeping three deputies away from the assembly and voting their alternates in their places This was accomplished i by getting two Of them drunk and by having the attorney of another insist that it was necessary that they make out and record certain papers in the matter of the title to an estate before 1 the close of business that day - in which it became necessary to make trip to the country to view the es. tate, with a series of delays which kept them out till night During the absence of the three the balance of power in the assembly shifted to r | opposition to 16 government votes. and the opposition was able to elect the presiding officer. who has great power in the conduct of legislation.
 When the majority Of the assembly i understood the coup they declared the procedure Illegal. and the result void. They based their charge on in- depreciation of the constitution to the effect that the alternate could not be accepted in the assembly without writ ten acknowledgement from the prin, cipal, and that the alternates had not been duly accredited. The opposition maintained that every requirement had been met and that the election was perfectly legal The point at issue is the legality Of the voting of the alternates and this is the point on which adjustment will have to be made to prevent the entry Of the United States. The tangle has been referred to the supreme court Of Pa mama for decision.

 The ministry of foreign affairs, where Baron Beyens was seen, is in stalled at Ste Adresse, a suburb of Havre, in the Villa Hollandais, a rus tic chalet occupied in ordinary times by seashore visitors, but now bearing on the outer gate a small placard reads: Ministere des Affaires Estran- geres de Belgique" A foreign office usually suggests marble halls and big diplomatic rooms, with ambassadors sitting among oil paintings and ma hOgany furnishings. But the Villa Hollandais has nothing of this kind Three small pine structures have been put up in the garden for various diplo- matic and consular branches.
