IMPORTANT GOLD STRIKE
IN M|SS0ULA COUNTY
MINERS LAST SHOT SHOWED UP
IL FEET OF oRE-NEAR
HUSON.
(Missoulian, Nov. 49,

For six years ID. A. Buchanan has
been plugging away at gold mine on
the Nine Mile above Huson.
A month ago the vein of ore to which
he had driven three long tunnels be-
gan to pinch out into barren stringer
Every blast seemed to spell failure
but Buchanan was stubborn. He had
put six years and all the money he
could scrape together into the Mar
tina mine, and he stuck with it.
For 70 shifts he and his little crew
hammered and dynamited at the hard
face of the barren rock. Last Satur-
day, discouraged, they decided to set
one big blast and let 'er go.
Twelve. Foot Vein Uncovered.
That last blast, according to excited
reports from Martina yesterday, I'M
covered 12-foot face Of rich gold
ore. The result according to Mr..
Buchanan, will be immediate develop
ment of the mine, extension of present
milling facilities and the employment
of big force of miners.
"Missoula county has a real mine, !"
is the word Buchanan sent to friends
here yesterday.
On Nine Mile Creek.
Martina is located rs miles out of
Huson on Nine Mile creek. and the
Buchanan property comprises group
Of 10 patented claims. The Martina
mine has revealed good gold ore for
many years and was once developed by
Missoula men, who gave up after some
effort to get the property into ship
ping condition. Buchanan then took
it over under a lease with an option
at $4,000, and began working it. He
finally interested eastern bankers and
drove three tunnels at different levels,
Buchanan has already mined 2,O69
tons of ore and claims to have 27,72O
tons partially blocked out, basing his
estimate on a survey by S. H. Ket-
cham of this city. Assays of samples
of the ore show values ranging from
$3.50 to 1920.
Buchanan expects to replace his
present five stamp mill with a lotion
continuous cyanide plant, and to add
an air compressor to his equipment,

Wood for Fuel.

Hardwoods such as oak, beech,
birch, hickory, ash, and locust, have a
comparatively high fuel value, and
one cord of the dry wood is equivalent
to a ton of bitumnous coal, Pine,
hemlock, douglas fir sycamore and
soft maple require two cords to equal
a ton of coal. The fuel value is relat-
ed to the weight, 1000 pounds of wood
yielding as much heat as one ton Of
coal Resinous woods however, are
better than those which do not con-
tain that substance.

Number, Marooned in Asia
Minor, Not Heard From
in Some Time
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, Feb. 14.-Another in
quiry was sent by the state depart
ment today to Ambassador Elkus at
Constantinople to develop why he had
not been able to report about the
marooned Americans detained in
Asia Minor.
Since the break with Germany, no
word has been allowed to reach this
country either from Constantinople
or Sofia.
1t developed today that the naval
collier Caesar, loaded with quarter
of a million dallars worth of food
supplies contributed by Americans
for Syrians and Armenians, and the
cruiser Des Moines, with cargo of
medical supplies, both bound for Bel
r1t, have been ordered held at Alex
andria indefinitely by the navy de
partment.
After the break with Germany of
ficials here decided it was essential
to keep the two vessels from entering
a Turkish port until sufficient guar
antees had been obtained that they
would come to no harm.
Much surprise exists here over the
cutting off of all communication with
Turkey and Bulgaria, where the
United States is representing some
of the belligerent powers. The plgh
of the 1000 Americans detained b!
the Turkish military authorities, des
pite assurances of the Turkish for
eign office that they would be releas
ed is arousing alarm here, because
the whole section is largely destitute
of food and is infected with disease

possible fate of the missing Galatea.
1t was claimed that, if the vessel had
been stolen, and taken out of port,
the act was committed by parties who
knew that the vessel had not only
been stocked for the cruise, but had
been deserted at last tmporarily, by
the crew, who were ashore. When
the latter returnd 70 go aboard, they
made the astonishing discovery, ala,
as yet customs and port authorities
have been unable to solve the mys-
terry.

TINE HAS NOT YET
COME, THINKS WILSON

Washington, Feb. 1.-The steady
accumulation Of violations of rights
Of Americans by Germany made it
appear today the president win go
before congress without awaiting a
serious disaster which may stock the
country. There are no indications,
however, that the president believed
the time for such step has yet come.
Official reports of the sinking OF the
American schooner Lyman NJ. Law In
the Mediterranean by an Austrian
submarine has added only slightly to
the tension, for while the act is be-
lieved to be illegal, no lives were lost
and apparently the vessel was warned.
Preliminary reports coming to the
goverrwent showing piling up AM
erlcan goods along the Atlantic sea-
board are destined for export to Eu-
ropean ports. While no evil effects
are felt now, the result of ruthless
submarine campaign will be a far
/. reaching disturbance into the indus
trial life of the United States. Prep
arations for any eventuality are go
ing on uninterrupted. It was stated
today it was entirely possible that nc
steps taken to furnish guns to Am
erican ships unless the president de-
cided to go to congress.
Reports to Consul Treadway, al
Rome, shows the schooner Law was
illegally sunk. Her goods we're moi
considered contraband. The subma.
rine is reported to have violated
rules; she should show flag befor,
hostile attack. Though it is prob,
able Austria win make a Statement
which may precipitate an expected
break with that country also. Tn,
question of armament is disposed O
apparently by an official Statement
that no guns viii be had by American
ship owners unless the government
provided them. The president expects
to go to congress again before com
hitting the government to a policy q
