AERIAL MAILS ARE
 DELAYED BY STRIKE

NEW YORK, July 25.-The first strike of aerial mail pilots to be recorded since the inauguration of the American airplane mail service began at noon today, following the refusal of the postoffice department to reinstate two pilots who were discharged because they refused to take their planes out last Tuesday on account of heavy fog.
 The pilots had made a formal demand for the reinstatement of the discharged airmen, but it was not known to the department that a strike was planned, until carriers failed to make their appearance to take out the mail for Chicago. \ strike is also is progress at Cleve- land, and the entire aerial system IS threatened with interruption.
 Aviators engaged in carrying the mails declare that the planes sup piled by the department are poorly equipped and dangerous under the most favorable conditions They ar que that the postal authorities have no right to compel them, under these circumstances, to venture forth with mails when weather conditions are unfavorable, as was the case on Tuesday when two of the pilots were discharged

KANI|SHNA ORE
 LOOKS GOOD AS
 SHAFT DEEPENS

The appearance of the ledge on the divide between Moose and Fri day creeks, in the kantishna dis trict, which is being opened up by the Aitken party, is improving with depth, according to J. A. Haney, who arrived from that district late yesterday with a number of sam ples which he is taking to Fairbanks for assay.
 The shaft had reached a depth of 35 feet when Haney left camp, and the work is now proceeding as rap- idly as two shifts of miners of three men each can rush it. More than that number of men, MT. Haney said, cannot be used with economy at this time. The shaft is a small one, merely to determine the values and extent of the ledge, and will be abandoned when real development work starts. Should the results of the present work prove satisfactory, the ledge will be tapped with tunnel, at much lower level.
 The work of moving supplies to the camp from the river landing at Roosevelt is proceeding steadily with two pack-horses, and if it should be decided to work on larger scale during the coming winter, a considerable quantity of supplies will be landed at Roosevelt before the close of navigation.
 Mr. Haney went to Fairbanks this morning on the Douse launch Vic tory, and will remain several days in the upper town, awaiting the treatment of his ore samples at the bureau of mines station. He made the trip out from the Kantishna with his own launch.
