BUILD TWO STEAMERS
 FOR U. s. BOARD
Largest Craft Ever Construct ed Tn China Soon Be
 Turned Over.

SHANGHAI, Aug 5.-Work of in- stalling engines and mechanical equipment in the hulls of the steam CTS Oriental and Cathay is proceed ing rapidly and it is believed that before the summer is over these ships, which are the last four built in Shanghai for the U s. Shipping Beard, will be delivered at San Francisco. The first two of the four vessels are the Mandarin and Celes- tial which have been completed.
 The building of the four vessels, all sister ships of 10,500 tons, is a distinct achievement for Chinese builders and marks a noteworthy advance in the industry of ship building in this country, for they are the largest boats ever built in China, Reports of shipping men to representative of the American Shipping Board at Shanghai are that the Mandarin, which was de- liyered some time ago in San Fran cisco, was held to be one of the best ships of the many constructed for the Shipping Board. It is the be- lief of officers bf the four vessels, that all four will live up to the standard set by the Mandarin.

FELLOW ON HAND IS
 CAUSE OF DEATH OF
 WELL KNOWN ALASKAN

Alfred Roche died the other day at Wrangell as the result of blood poi soning, which developed from a felon on one of his hands.
 Alfred Roche was born 51 years ago in the state of Louisiana, says the Wrangell Sentinel. He was of French parentage. and himself good linguist in the French language. He enlisted in the United States army in 1898 and saw several years service in the Philippines. MT Roche's father was a French subject, anda in 1870 when France called for her subjects to rally to the flag he returned to France taking his wife and baby with him. Upon reaching his native country he enlisted and served through the Franco-Prussian war During the war his wife (Al fred's mother) was murdered in her house by German soldiers.
 At the close of the Franco-Prus sian war the senior MT Roche re turned to America, bringing his little son. Alfred, with him. After a time ne married dSdlH. BelOTe AllGeu NdS grown he went to sea, and while fol lowing the sea he learned the trade of chef.
 About 20 years ago MT Roche went to Wrangell. He has left Wrangell several times for other points in Al aska He was cooking on small boat running out of Kodiak at the time of the volcanic eruption on Ko- diak Island several years ago. He has also lived in Juneau. But since coming to the North he has always seemed to regard Wrangell as his home He was of a quiet, unassum- ing manner and was never known to antagonize any one.
 Early in the season Mir. Roche en tered the service of the North Pa cific Trading & Packing Company at Klawock It was while working at KIawock as a cook that his hand became affected with a felon, from which blood poisoning developed and from which he died.

 It is stated there is a whole noun tain of the ore, and the old-timers in this district have been slipping oul the past week and stalking claims near Discovery.
 With the Richardson Highway at the door of the new strike, and with easy transportation facilities. it is said the mine can be worked with great profit
 Three years ago considerable ex citement arose in this city when de posits of platinum were found few miles below this ledge Assays were made and returned values as high as $220 per yard. Later a number of citizens placed a hand drill on the ground. but assays were unsatisfac- tory and the boom subsided It is now believed that the specimens found three years ago came from the ledge discovered by Messrs. DeHayt and Oliver.
 It is stated that development work will start on the property some time in the near future, and if the ledge is as highly mineralized as the as says show. it may lead to a mine of magnitude.

ECONOMIC UNHEAVAL
 HAS DONE ITS WORST

NEW YORK, Aug. 5 - Howard Elliott, chairman of the Northern Pacific Railway, is optimistic on his return from six thousand mile tour of the Pacific Northwest and Canada.
 Everywhere 1 went" he said, there was feeling of hope and belief that conditions would be bet ter and in few places did I find any feeling of pessimism. The econ omic upheaval in North Dakota seems to have done it's worst
 The outlook fors agricultural pro duction is good. Montana, Idaho, Oregon and Washington will have a production in grain, grasses and fruits above the average. Crops in the Northern Pacific states will be good, taken as a whole.'

ARE GOING. TO LAKE,;
 DISCOVER GOLD
Excitement In Whitehorse Region Following Reports
 from Little Atlin.

Since the arrival of H. H. Darud and the recording of his claims on the new Darud Creek discovery near Little Atlin Lake, considerable ex citement has been noticed around town, says the Whitehorse Star of July 30. The fact that these men were so secretive about the location and told all that there was nothing to find. yet sent for their friends. was sufficient to cause quite a nun Der of local people to stampede there. Most of these stampeders went up to McRae. then up the river and across Marsh Lake to Tagish and from there to the new strike.
 On Sunday evening J. H. Searfoss and partner arrived in town from the creek, and their story as told the representative of the Weekly Star is that in April of this year they out fitted here and left for Carcross and from there went to Tagish and com menced to prospect. finally locating more or4less permanently on prom ising creek on the east side of Mount White. This creek, now called Durad Creek, heads in a big lake about five miles above the discovery claim and empties into the Hootalinqua River at a distance of about 25 miles from discovery. These men state that the easiest trail to the diggings is to go to Tagish and take the old Teslin Indian trail and that the scene of their operations lies six miles due south from the Teslin trail at point where it passes along the east side of White Mountain The dis tance from Tagish is approximately 40 miles and there are no difficulties whatever to be dealt with, as the trail is comparatively level and 1t is an easy "mush"
 In speaking of their find, MT. Scar floss states that they have very good surface indications of placer gold and that they are building a dam preparatory to developing their find and that nothing definite will be known until they sink and strike bed rock. e-ir-
 These men, Messrs J. H. Searfoss, Ira Searfoss, Felix Guenett and An drew Bernsten, were prospecting to gether and working under a pros pectors' license and state that the men who have recorded discovery have done so illegally, as they have already staked the original discovery and under their license the same is valid and this new discovery claim of Darud and party, although record ed previously, is not correct. The new discovery was staked, so MT. Searfoss states. while his party were out securing fresh supplies of pro visions and when they returned and found what had been done they left immediately for. Whitehorse to pro tect their discovery claim.
 In speaking of the creek itself, MT

Peterson was carried 10 St Ann 5 Hospital at noon suffering from se- rious injuries Although suffering from cuts and bruises about both the head and body. Mrs Peterson B injuries are not believed to be neces sarily fatal, according to state ment made by the attending physi- elan this afternoon
 The accident took place about 10 a. m today. The injured woman, with Mrs Ou and Mrs, August Smith and little boy, were out after Der res and were going mp the Wagner Hume 10 berry patch when it hap pened. The woman fell in some man ner and struck on her head in the creek 90 feet beneath the Hume,
 The creek bed at that point is filled with rocks, upon which Mrs. Peterson's head struck with consid erable force, lacerating her scalp in several places, inflicting painful wounds. She also suffered a painful wound on her right hip, but how SC rious the latter is has not been de- termined. Mrs, Peterson was in semi-conscious condition this after noon and seemed to be regaining full consciousness 1t was not believed, from all indications, that her skull suffered a fracture.
 The presence of Mrs. Oui and Mrs. Smith saved the injured woman from being drowned One of the women made her way down to the creek and held the unconscious wo- mans head above the water while the other hurried back to Salmon Creek roadhouse and secured aid from the two men there These re- turned with her and succeeded in getting Mrs Peterson to higher ground Tn the meantime a physician was summoned from town and on his arrival at the scene of the accident. a stretcher was made and Mrs. Pet erson brought to town and placed in the hospital
 While suffering considerably from her injuries, which are said to be serious, and from the shock of the fall on the rocks, strong hope was held out for Mrs. Peterson's re- covery.
 The injured woman is the wife Of Captain IF Peterson an employe or the Juneau Ferry & Navigation Com pany.

PINK SALMON RUN IS
 FAILURE IS THE CLAIM

That the pink salmon, or humpie run is a failure, so far at least is the opinion of William Stewart, perintendent of the George T. My CTS Cannery at Chatham who was in Juneau today with the tender Philip r. Kelly, Fish are being caught right along he said but not in any large quantities. The Chatham can nery now has pack of more than thirty thousand cases but need con siderable more to fill the cans on hand.
 MT. Stewart saiu mat he would have had his pack up if he had packed chums early in the month but held off waiting for the pink salmon run. This run did not ma erialize in the quantities expected so it may be two weeks longer be- fore the pack at the plant is com pleted.
 The Philip F. Kelly brought a big acow to this port and a cargo Of coal will be taken to the cannery. The coal is being loaded at the Pa cific Coast Coal Company bunkers.
