DEVELOPING BIG FOUR GROUP

Development work during the past two years, and particularly during the summer just past, has demon strated that the Big Four group of gold quartz claims, in the Mineral Creek district, will in the near fu- ture become an important producer of gold.
 Like most of the properties of the Mineral Creek district, the Big Four produces extremely rich ore speci- mems, and this rich ore brings the average of the lead up to a very re- spectacle figure. Mill tests made last summer showed that the ore would plate on an average better than $25.00 per ton. When it is considered, however, that portion of the rock milled was waste which, under the conditions then existing, it was impossible to separate from the ore, it is fair to presume that un- der the ordinary conditions of min ing and milling the ore will plate on an average about $40 per ton and 1 yield concentrates having value of at least 5000 per ton of ore milled, l the recovery on the plates being only about 80 per cent of the assay value of the ore.
 The development work to date consists of two tunnels of 200 and 150 feet respectively, about 200 feet apart the upper tunnel giving yer tical depth of about 900 feet at it's face, and which, owing to the con- tour of the surface, will rapidly in- crease as the tunnel is advanced, af. fording abundant stoping ground. The lower tunnel shows approxi- mately the same ore values as the upper, but varies in character, in that it carries a larger percentage of values in the concentrates. | At the present time the property is equipped with Gibson mill with rated capacity of ten tons per day, driven by water power. The mill, however, has not demonstrated that | it can handle it's rated quantity of ore, but is sufficient for present pur- poses, and will be used during the next season, when, if the results of the development work warrants i'm proved milling machinery will be in- stalled.
 During the winter a tram will be installed between the upper tunnel and the mill for transporting the ore, which heretofore has been done by hand. The tram will be 2200 feet in length, and will be operated
 by the gravity system. One of the
 towers for the tram is already in DO. sition, and last week, William Quitsch
 manager of the mine, left for the
 property with a large quantity of mining supplies, cable for the tram, and material for the construction of
 the remaining tram towers and ore
 bunkers.

well-known miner on Canyon creek, purchased the interests of the other partners.
 After working the claims for few years Mr. Michaelson and MT. Renner dissolved partnership, dividing up the properties. Up to the present time about $200,000 has been taken out. The pay streak is about 50 feet in width, bed rock being found at 26 feet, about ating an everlasting dump. Improve ments consist of several buildings and blacksmith shop. About 1400 feet of pipe carries the water to No. l Giant which has been installed, the values being carried into a Hume, which at the present time is too badly routed to work properly. MT. Michael son at present is working his claim with crude rocker, and averaging about $14 per day of twelve hours. Three average pans gave values at 47c, $1.6O and $216 respectively. The formation is slate, the gold being in pockets.
 The property is considered a valu- able one, and is lying practically dOm- inant through lack of capital. It has proven values, the district being rich in placer gold. Properly worked with improved machinery it would be bonanza.
 Mills creek is in the Moose Pass dis trict about 50 miles from Seward, and is tributary to Canyon Creek, where the Canyon Creek Development Con- pany is erecting large dam to con- trol the water for it's valuable proper ties. It has been a steady gold pro- ducer for years, lack Of roads and transportation facilities badly hamper ing development of a number of rich mines.
 Robert Michaelson, the owner of the Mills creek properties is an oldtimer in Alaska, having first come to the Territory forty-eight years ago, land ing at Wrangell MT Michaelson mined in the vicinity of Wrangell for short time and then went into the Cassiar district where he remained eight years. While there he made the acquaintance of Miss Nellie Cashman, who iourneyed to this far-off camp to help the scurvey sufferers. He was one of the vast number of men nurSed by Miss Cashman, and relates many stories of the herosm of this intrepid Alaskan.
 Leaving the Cassiar MT. Michaelson and companion sailed in a 22-foot Co., lumbia river fishing boat for Yakutat, where he mined the beaches for time. From Yakutat he struck out across the Gulf of Alaska for the Cook Inlet district, landing at what is now Cooks Inlet, from there going up to Anchorage Point, where he was the discoverer and locator of promising claims He mined there three years or more. From Anchorage Point he travelled to Hope, on Turnagain Arm, at which place he mined until 1895, following. which he prospected Can yon and Mills creeks, locating the claims he now owns.
 MT. Michaelson, after 4S years in Alaska is as optimistic over the min ing outlook as in his younger days, and is now certain that fortune is within his grasp.

SETTLEMENT or MINE STRIKE MUST ORIGINATE
IN the BITuMIN0US FIELD IS CIST OF AN
INTERVIEW GIVEN OUT BY JOHN |. LEWIS
Leader Confident There Will Be Joint Conference OF Oper
ators And Miners Within Few Days--The Public Expects
Settlement: Situation Demands One; There Win Be One

cipal institutions in Michigan will
meet with refusal, was indicated by
Mr.. Lewis shortly before going in
to conference with Carl Young, Ia
Dor commissioner of that state, and
P. j. Ward, a deputy, who arrived
here today.
The miners have made known
their attitude on this two or three
times before Mr.. Lewis said, smil-
ing.
From other union leaders il was
learned that the reason for the min
ers refusal is that if the institu-
tons were supplied, a pronounced
apathy on the part of civic author
tiles toward a speedy settlement of
the strike would be made manifest
Members Of the Michigan delega-
ton stated that they wish to OBJ
tain permission to have coal mined
for hospitals jails and gas, electric
light and water works in their
state. They seemed confident Of OBJ
tanning a favorable answer.
As he walked off to join the Mich
igan party, Mr.. Lewis reiterated his
belief that there will be joint in
terstate conference of operators
and miners within few days.
'The public expects a settle
ment, the situation demands set
Element, and there will be a settle
ment," he said.
Asked whether or not there was
any significance in a meeting be-
tween anthracite operators and
mayors Of cities in the hard coal
region to be held here Tuesday,
Mr.. Lewis said that there was
nothing in the plan of the city ega-
cutives that was not already known
to the miners.

!. N. S. Staff Correspondent
Washington, July 28-The para
lying railroad strike is we'll on
the way to settlement and Presi-
dent Harding was able TO inform
his cabinet when it met today that
for the first time in weeks the in
dustrial skies of the nation are
Frightening.
While every one concerned with
the peace plans adopted a "sh-h-h'
attitude today-"don't breathe or
you may spoil tit was learned
officially that from suggestions
made and now under consideration
by both railroad executives and
strike leacers, it is considered en-
tirely probable that the workers
will be back at their jobs on all
roads within a week.
At least the strike will be 80
percent over was the optimistic
viewpoint Of one cabinet officer.
So far as could be ascertained to-
day, President Harding laid out no
cut and dried program of settle
ment in the conferences which con-
tinued at the white house until
nearly midnight last night, and
which probably will be continued
today and tomorrow as disputed
points continue TO arise. What the
President did, according to admin,
istration Spokesman, was to i'm
press on both sides the incalcul-
able gravity of the whole situation
and to point out that a settlement
must speedily be effected il the
country Is to escape one OF the
worst winters in recent history.
Members Of the Interstate Com
merce Commission. from their ex-
pert knowledge and confidential re-
ports on the railroad situation had
informed the President that unless
the strike is settled within two
weeks the entire railroad structure
of the country is threatened with
ment and lack of fuel. President
Harding did suggest, it was learn
ed today, that the strikers return
to work immediately-on all roads
il possible, and if not, then on
those roads willing to restore the
seniority rights vacated by the
strikers when they left the shops
four weeks ago.
This proposition was taken IN
der Amusement by the strikin 9
shop crafts leaders and it is con-
sidered probable that within IS
hours the leaders will inform the
white hou5e of their willingness to
return.
Meanwhile the shop crafts lead
ers are comforting among them
selves and T. Dewitt Cuyler, pres
ident Of the Association of Railway
Executives has called a meeting of
As railroad systems for New York
next Tuesday.
This will be one of the greatest
single gatherings of railway execu-
tives in years and the policies
there adopted may have an import
ant bearing on future railroad his
tory.
Settlement Of the whole contro-
versy apparently hinged today
around the question of seniority
rights of the strikers. That was
the rock which broke the railway
labor boards efforts to settle the

Philadelphia, Pa, July 28-Any
settlement of the mine strike will
originate in the bituminous field
rather than the anthracite. This is
the essence of a number Of state
ments made this morning by John
L. Lewis, President of the United
Mine Workers of America
Refreshed by long nights sleep
M. Lewis appeared more optimis-
tic than ever as he sauntered about
putting mediatively on huge cigar,
"a call for a joint interstate con
ference will be issued" he said
emphatically, but if the conference
Is held it does not mean that the
miners will go back to work pend
ing negotiations. We stand abso-
lutely upon the status quo, and
have not altered our position a
single bit.
Tomorrow Frank harrington.
President of the Illinois Mine Work
ers will be here l have held over
nv other district leaders in order
to confer with him.
"If the operators refuse to at,
tend a conference, we snail contin-
ue as at present. l believe that set
Element will be made with the bit
luminous operators, however, and
that this will be before the anthra-
cite operators will negotiate.
"A conference will be held il a
majority of tonnage is assured, but
when the call will 90 out, cannot
say"
First, a settlement with no reduc-
zion in wages will probably be rea-
ched with the bituminous opera
tors, Mr.. Lewis said. The anthra-
bite group will then come into the

Rail Workers May Be Back
On job Within A Week
Officials Declare Today

walkout ten days ago and II still
remains the big obstacle in the
pathway of the Presidents efforts
B. NJ Jewell. national director of
the strike and his six shop crafts
associates, informed the President
last night, it is understood. that
the strike could be called off with
in As hours on assurance that all
the railroads OF the country would
restore the seniority rights TO
those men who went out and upon
assurances that the latest wage
cut decreed by the railway labor
board would be made the subject
of a rehearing.
President Harding replied it is
understood that he did not believe
there would be any diff1culty in the
matter of rehearing on the wage
problem but that he was unable
to speak for the executives on sen.
iority rights. The strike leaders
left the white house and the Presi-
dent sent for Cuyler.
Cuyler was unwilling and I'M
able, it is said TO speak the assur-
ance the strikers had asked and
after lengthy conference at which
all the disputed points were gone
over again, he informed the Presi-
dent he would call a general meet
ing Of the executives Of all roads
in New York next Tuesday to for
mulate policy.
Strike leaders were adamant to-
day in asserting that a settlement
must hinge on the willingness of
all roads to restore seniority, in
Guiding the Pennsylvania, Erie,
Delaware and Hudson and a few
other die-hards.
The one concession the shop
crafts leaders appeared willing to
make was that the union men who
stayed with the job should be per-
mitted to succeed to the seniority
but that returning strikers should
take precedence over any new men
taken on.
If the government can bring pres
sure enough to bear on the die
hards to get them to abandon their
unyielding stand, II was regarded
as certain today that the strike
will be over in quick order.
Meanwhile, reports to govern
ment departments emphasized the
growing seriousness of the trans
portation situation. More trains
are being suspended, more rolling
stock retired because Of lack of re-
pairs and a demoralizing condition
Of most roads is steadily widening
Jewell and his associates arrang
ed another conference with Presi-
dent Harding at II o'clock today
INN ediately after the cabinet meet
ing.
Jewell declined to make any com.
ment on his conference with the
President. when he reached the
White House at noon.
Things have reached such a
stage now" he said, that I think
things will be done if we Just keep
quiet"
