Best Results Obtained in the Last Quarter Than
 Since Beginning
 of Operations.
LABOR IS THE OBSTACLE
If Normal Prices Were Prevailing Profits of the Mine Would
 Be Increased

The report for the Alaska Cold Mines Co.,. for three months ending June 30th has been received ill Juneau. A detailed tabulation of the working of the Alaska -Gastin- eau is made and appended to the report is the following statement made by Charles Hayden, President of the Hayden-Stone Company, ii nancial packers.
 The tonnage mined during the June quarter, averaging better than 1000 tons per day, shows the best results obtained for any quarter since the beginning of operations total of 233,521 tons or ore were broken in the mine and 639,214 tons rammed to the oreways. leaving l. }24509 tons of broken ore in the stopes. Although the broken ore the mine has decerased 410692 ons, principally due to the scar :ity of labor to man machines in working stopes, nevertheless owing very conservative monthly es imatA of the ore broken, the mount of ore broken and in the itopes will probably exceed the mount shown on the books by 30 O 30 per cent During the quarter | shortage of labor, principally min ITS, was experienced, curtailing op ,rations especially during the month )f June.
 The average daily tonnage of 7,062 ons were milled during the quarter, the best evidence since the start )f operations. The capacity of the mill has been increased from $500 to 10000 tons per day by the install ation of fire impact screens over he 72-inch rolls. The cost of these, which was $7,605, was absorbed in he operation cost The total cost of permanent improvements charged to operations during the quarter was sS,065, equaling $.01255 per ton. The mill is in first class operating con lition, and as far as can be seen 1t present, no extraordinary re- placements or repairs will have to be made. All the power plants op- erated without serious interruptions throughout the qaurter.
 The gross value of heads for the quarter was SLIP, against $1207 for the first quarter. a decrease of nearly 10 cents per ton. The oper- iting costs for the second quarter were $07210 as against $0.78S3 for he first quarter, a decrease of near y cents The profit per ton for he second quarter was $0.177S, as
