Frayne thus outlines the situation
in the following industries:
Steel. - After the Youngstown

pendent steel companies skilled labor
is already partly organized. But in
the trust, a great fight is still to be
made for the union, among skilled
and unskilled men.
Sugar-There is slight organiza-
ton in this industry, and a recent
strike at the Havermeyer plant in
Brooklyn won a reduction in hours;
but the organization of employees is
far from complete, and work among
them is to be pressed.
Street Railway Men.-There are
close to $4,000 unorganized in New
York, and in many other cities condi-
lions are similar, with hours running
often much over ten. "They will ali
have the eight hour day yet" ex-
claimed Frayne.

industry, and the struggle for short

Charges against Morals Inspector

Healey for the second time, have not
yet been filed before the civil service

Hanna has been asked to see the

denied that he had an appointment.
If Hanna goes to trial before the

is expected to call in the chief and

work his Office has accomplished and
just what became of this work which

Judge Uhlir hints that these reports
are never acted upon. He favored
bringing out these facts before his

Tom Stevens. part owner and discoverer of the Last Chance Mine who has been in town for the last several days, chartered the power boat Sealight and together with his associates, left yesterday morning for the mine to commence it's development on a large scale. The early start in the season was made to take advantage of the snow over which they intend to carry their provision for the sum mer.
 The Last Chance Mine is said to be the most promising piece of mining property in the district. MT. Stevens, when asked to verify the report, said that he was satisfied with the showing already made and that he believed his stake was maded dThe coming season, from four to six men will be busy open ing up the property; meanwhile the small mill will be kept running, thus providing "grubstake" as MT.

DISCUSSESPRICE
 OF GASOLINE
AND GIVES REASON WHY IT IS GREATER THAN THAT
 OF DISTILLATE

E. L. Wolfe, special represen- tative of the Union Oil Go. of Cali fornia, is in Ketchikan after wis., it to Juneau and other towns mak- ing an investigation of the oil mar ket.
 The reason given by Mh Wolfe for the advance in the price of gasoline over distillate is that there is no foreign demand for distillate and the reason for the present high price of gasoline it that at the be- ginning of the war in Europe op- erations were practically suspended on account of the men going to the front. This in connection with the increased foreign demand since the war began and the decreased out put by many of the wells in the United States has put the price of gasoline at the present figure.
 When asked for his opinion re- garding the Alaska oil fields MT. Wolfe replied that the KattalIa fields would come into the ir own as the percentage of gasoline ob- tained from the crude oi1has shown a remarkable record. As vet, of course, the KatalIa fields are isolated in that there is no equipment for getting the oil to- point of shipment and be- sides the development of these fields are greatly hampered for the reason that the land is not open for patent.
 The Union Oil Co. of California, for whom the New England Fish Go. are local agents, is among the largest independent oil companies of the United States and has alto gether thirty-three tank steamers in the coastwise and foreign trade and is not in any way affiliated with the Standard Oil Co.,, says MT. Wolfe.
 MT. Wolfe is stopping at the Revilla Hotel and will go south on the steamer Spokane tomorrow.
