TUNGSTEN MILL BOUGHT

Arriving in Fairbanks from the Out side, Mike Stepovich. the we'll known local mining man. brought in tung- sten mill for installation on mining property in which he is interested at the head of Gilmore creek. He also brought in a sawmill. which he will install on Gilmore. with the idea of saving all of his own lumber and tim bers necessary for the construction of the mill and for mining purposes.
 The mill will be installed immedi- ately, according to Mir Stepovich. He also intends to start mining operations as soon as possible, and expects to have both mine and mill running in a few weeks time. About 200 tons of tungsten ore are now on the dump al the mine ready to be milled. and 1t is fully expected that much more will have been mined by the time that the mill is through with the first bunch.
 The mill brought in by Mir. Stepo- yich has q capacity of about seventy five tons for twenty-four hours work. T. is roller mill. containing three sets of graduated rollers and a con- centrator. Its mechanism is con- structed particularly with the idea that it will have to crush nothing but tung- sten ore-Fairbanks Citizen.

MANY INDICTMENTS
ARE IN PROSPECT

Washington. Sept. 10.-Numerous in
dictments for conspiracy to thwart
the governments war plans and tie
its hands in many ways appear to be
in prospect as a result of the re
cent nationwide raid of Industrial
Workers OF the World offices by de-
partment Of justice AGENTS.
Evidence is said to be fast accumu-
lating to support the belief that a
gigantic conspiracy has existed for
some time past to cripple the govern
ment in carrying on the war, that its
ramifications have extended into vir-
tually every state and that numerous
anti-war activities which appeared to
emanate from many sources in reality
had their fountain head in a single
group of conspirators.
Anti-draft demonstrations. Gripping
of war industries by so called labor
disturbances and by violence, burning
of crops and continuous preachment
of anti-ally sentiment with other ac
tivities intended to embarrass the
government and retard the exercise
of its full strength in prosecuting the
war, appear, from recent disclosures
to have been included within the
scope of the alleged conspiracy.

Washington, Sept 10.-President
Wilson has placed an ambargo. ef.

this view
