GATEWAY STORY SUBSTANTIATED
 FROM LONDON
TELEGRAM IS RECElvED FROM LONDONER DRILLING WILL,
 START MILE 43 1-2 SOON

Two weeks ago the Seward Daily Gateway published an article relative to English capital entering this dis trict developing quartz ground at Mile 43 1-2 on the Alaska Railroad, which property is owned by the two, George Howes, father and son, and John Mackwitz. In a story published in the Anchorage Times Wednesday, the Gateway's story is reprinted with the additional information that, accord ing to a telegram received in that city from G. Lionel Whitworth from London, England, he stated he was leaving Europe shortly and upon his arrival at Seattle would engage drill lers to go on the ground.
 As was stated in the Gateway ar ticle by J. P. Lynch, of the Seattle firm of diamond drillers, Lynch Bros, who was a visitor in Seward for over a week while awaiting word from London, he said that providing the London capitalists took over the big quartz proposition within two years time there would be 300 men engag- ed in work on the ground. MT. Lynch was later instructed to await further word from England at his Seattle of flee for where he departed from here. His estimates for carrying on the drilling operations were acceptd as satisfactory by the Fairbanks office so without question this firm will be in charge of the drilling operations. The Anchorage paper adds that the drilling will be completed by January 1, 1926. The owners of the property are all we'll known in Seward and in the Inlet town. MT. MackWltz was 3 business visitor in Seward few weeks ago. George Howe, Sr., has been mak- ing his home in Anchorage for the last two years. George Jr. has been working for the railroad off and on when not on the property.

Dumps ThOuands of
 King Salmon Fry Into
 Kenai- Campbell Creek

After carrying a load of about two hundred thousand king salmon fry to Cook Inlet waters, H. E. Ellsworth, member of the Territorial fish com mission, returned home to Seward on last evenings train from the Inlet. Mr. Ellsworth took the small fry over in barrels made especially for this purpose These fish required consist ent attention for at certain intervals of approximately 15 minutes, the fish inclosed in screens in the barrels had to be given fresh supply of water, At other intervals the water had to be aerated.
 Though he did not count them it is estimated that 100000 were placed in Campbell creek with the remainder going into Lake Kenai. Another ship ment of 100000 will shortly be taken over to and emptied into Ship creek, a short distance out of Anchorage.
 That the local hatchery is doing much toward increasing the local sal mon supply is shown by these plant ings. The fish were of large size and in fine condition.
