1 MINER IS KILLED AT THE
 HlRST- -CHICHACOF; FIRST DEATH FROM ACCIDENT

William Diascovich, 37 years of gof mine at 3 o'clock the afternoon |of January 9, when about four ton of rock and earth slid from the side of stope in the mine, covering him completely and suffocating him to death. He was taken from the debris of rock and earth about 15 minutes after it struck him, but was dead when he was taken from the mine. The body was brought to Juneau last night on the company
 boat Isis.
 The. death of Diascovich is the first which has ever occurred from an accident at the Hirst- t-Chichagof
 mine since operations were first started there, in 1918.
 The company boat had left a short time before the accident for Chi chagcf to meet the Ambassador com ing from Juneau. and one of the miners went over the mountain trail to Chichagof. Dr. Sinclair immed- lately left there for the Hirst-Chi- chagof on that companys boat. He made an examination of the body of Diascovich and stated that deat h was caused by suffocation. there being no bones broken.
 s. A. Sholin left the Hirst Chicha- gof the next morning, with three men from the mine, to bring the body of Diascovich to Juneau. Stormy weather and engine trouble delayed their arrival here until last night Snow fell on the entire trip in and the winds were bad, MT. Sholin said.
 The body of Diascovich is at the IC. W. Young Company Undertaking Parlor Diascovich has been em- ployed as a miner at the Hirst-Chi- chagof mine for the past four months. He was known as man of jolly disposition. a good worker and was popular with his fellow workers. He was a native of Montenegro and a member of the Juneau Serbian Society.
 The funeral will be held tomor- row afternoon at ? o'clock at the Graeco-Russian Church. Interment will be in the Serbian plot in Ever green Cemetery.

STOCKHOLM, Jan. 15.-Sweden expects ai income of sl47,000,000 dur ing the budget year t923-24. of which 73 per cent will consist of taxes, ac- cording to, the report just published by the Exchequer The economic depression is now past, it is believed here, and a general financial i'm provement is accepted as an actual fact by the government statisticians in calculating the national revenue a year and a half in advance.
 Among the items which appear on the bill of income for the next budget year is one Of 76,000,000 kronor. or about $20000,000, which will come from profits of the states
 industries or utilities. These include the postal service, the state tele- graphs, the state railways, the state canals, the state power stations, the state mines, the tobacco monopoly, and the state lands and real estate. Taxes on the manufacture, sale and distribution of liquor and malt will
 bring about $24,000,G00 into the na- tional treasury, and the taxes on
 tobacco will yield about half that sum-
 In connection with the report on
 revenue the Exchequer calls atten- tion to the changes in the economic situation since last year. Thus the index number for retail prices on raw materials fell from TIT in 1921 1 to 149 in 1922. Similarly the index for manufactured goods fell from 209 to 1S6, while the index for work
 mems wages changed from 167-440 to 200-260 This indicates that there is steady movement in the direc- tion of pre-war stability.
 A study of the Swedish national
 indebtedness made by leading Stockholm daily shows that, although i the Swedish national debt per capita
 had doubled during the last 10 years, l it is still considerably smaller than 1 that of Norway and Denmark. The present figure for Sweden is about $69. which is a favorable showing compared with the national debt per capita of the United States, now about $20S, according to the same paper.

Appreciation was also expressed to the King of Afghanistan for granting equal rights to Hindus, in the interest of Hindu-Moslem unity.
 With regard to the anti-Turkish policy recently displayed by Great Britain. the khalifat Committee was outspoken in it's condemnation. Resolutions passed on this subject were as follows
 Pass Resolution
 "This meeting of the Central Khalifat Committee accepts the challenge thrown by MT. Lloyd George. the British Premier, in his speech at Manchester, to Asia on the one hand and Islam on the other, and assures him and other persons of his way of thinking that so far as Islam is concerned, this chal- lenge to the Noslems of the world, alive to their responsibility, are ever ready to meet in every possible manner.
 This meeting of the Central Khal- fiat Committee considers the Brit |
 ish activities, in their attempts to internationaliZe the Turkish Straits, as unjust and coercive, and in the opinion of this committee such in standardization could only be justifiable in case other powers, es. pecially Britain, internationalize the seas under their respective influ- ences, and. further, in the opinion of this meeting. such attempts are de .trimental to the freedom of the Khalifa of Islam and the seat of the Khallfat."
