LAW FIRM IS TO
 BE DISSOLVED IN
 VERY SHORT TIME

After September list the well know law firm of shackleford & Buyless will be dissolved and other business arrangements will be made by the two partners. Both will con tinue to be employed by the Alaska Gastineau Gold Mining Company, and will also be associated together in litigation now pending in the courts. in which they are both interested.
 "The matter Of dissolying the part nership is merely a matter of busi- ness convenience" said Mr. Shack leford today. There has been no trouble between us but by making other arrangements and by working separate. We can accomplish many things which are now impossible '
 Mir. Bayless will probably retain the offices now occupied by the firm in the Pacific Coast Building. while Mir. Shackleford will open offices in the Coldstein Building.
 The law firm of Shackleiord & Bayless was formed about four years ago when MT. Bayless came to Ju- neau from Cordova, where he had been practicing law MT. Shackle- ford has been practlcing law in AL aska for the past IA years and has been associated with Judge John R. Winn and Thomas R. Lyons at diff ferent times.

THANE REMAINS AS THE ACTIVE
 HEAD OF MINES
His Scope of Duties Has Been Increased to Embrace Further
 Development.
MANAGEMENT PRAISED


 B. l.. Thane is to continue in the active charge of the operations of the Alaska Gastfneau Gold Mining Company. and also in charge of any other work which may be undertak- en in this section of Alaska by the Jackling interests at any future time. according to an announcement made today. The decision to remain in ac. tive charge of the work of the com pany was reached by Mir. Thane aff ter conferring with Col D. C. Jack link and Charles Hayden here late Saturday
 Mir. Thane stated here today that his contract with the company eN- pired on May 1st of this year and that he was very desirous Of being at liberty to devote his time Co de- yelopment and exploration work in Alaska. He stated. however, that 1t was not his desire to entirely withdraw from the company, but to remain in a consulting capacity. He also stated that he did not desire to withdraw from the active manage ment of the company unless some arrangement could be made which would be entirely satisfactory to all concerned. As a result of the con ference Mir. Thane win remain in charge of the work for considerable time to come.
 Heads Are Pleased
 Mir. Thane said today "phe an nual visit of the pres.den of our company and Mir. JackIing was for the purpose of making a study Of the entire situation ard they re- viewed the operations to date, both as to mine development mill opera ton and the table of working costs for both mine. mill, and power plants. They both expressed themselves as being highly pleased with the re- suits obtained in every department and were especially pleased with the work O. B. B. Yielding, as su- perintendent of the Perseverance Mine, E. V. Dayeler as superintend- ent of the big mill at Thane' and with the work of the three big power houses. which are costing less 10 op- crate and are producing more power than was originally estimated.
 Results Satisfying
 "Whne the recoyeries obtained have been lower than originally es. timated. this was entirely due to the fact that from the west section of the mine. which had to be develop ed first the ore obtained gave gen eral lower average tenure than or iginally estimated The mine deyel- opment in the section east Of the shaft is opening a body If higher grade ore which will eventually al- low us Co reduce more ore in the biz mill and at the same time main tain our averages of recovery. The coasts of extraction and recovery have been uniformly better than eN- pected
 No Changes Contemplated
 Both men are entirely satisfied with the results being obtained and with the personnal Of the force. which has been carefully picked and no changes are contemplated. The mine development work is now reach ing a point where the tonnage pro- duction can be gradually increased. and this will be done, but 1t will be 8 very gradual process No sudden jump in the amount of ore handled
