LARGE QUARTZ VEIN E DISCOVERED IN
 POPOFF ISLAND
REVIVAL WESTWARD MINING INDUSTRY INDICATED BY
 RICH NEW DISCOVERY

The biggest piece of mining news to have been made public in this district of Alaska since the days when the famous Apollo quartz mine near Squaw Harkor took out approximately $3,5OO,OO0 during the operation period, was brought to Seward yesterday by A. II. Brad ford, former mining engineer but who since 1917, has been promin- ently identified with the salmon packing industry.
 A tremendously sized vein, con- Ifidently believed to be an exten- sion of the old Apollo has been dis covered on Popoff Island, opposite Unga, the Shumagin group; in any case the vein is So large and so much richer than the old Apollo ore, that Mir Bradford, and his partner, Frank Brown, the original discoverer of the Apollo and who since has passed the years in quest Iof the lost lead, have had a small crew of men quietly working on the property for months past and prior to leaving for Seward increased the crew to six men; these will carry forward development work turnout the winter.
 So enthusiastic are the reports, which came in on the s. s. Redon- do, that it has stirred the blood of the oldtimers who, after taking into consideration the size of the vein, the analysis of the ore, and recalling the time, some years ago, when $25,00O in beach gold was taken from Popoff, liken this strike las the greatest in at least 20 years and believe another "TreadWell' has been found

NEW FRENCH RENT LAW IS HARDSHIP
 OV FOREIGNERS
RENT LAW GRIM JOKE TO THE FOREIGN EX-SOLDIER
 IN FRANCE

PARIS, Sept. 6. (P)-Foreigners living France are out of luck under the new rent law recently put into effect. Only those who served with the allied armies be- fore the law have the same standing as French tenants. The others, and they form a major ity, are left largely to the land lords mercy.
 They can be turned out into the street when their leases ex- pire, whereas the French tenant is given a propagation of his tenancy.
 Not 50 the foreigner. If the owner tells him to pack up and leave he must do just that.
 h a way, the law has been a grim joke on the foreign ex- soldier. The average landlord would rather have and ex-enenly as tenant than an ex-ally, for he can't get read of the latter once he turns over the keys to the front door.

MYSTERIOUS BANK DEAL SAID INVOLVE
 SIX N. '. FIRMS
ENTIRE TRANSACTION EXECU- TED WITH BANKING PAPER;
 NO CASH LOST

NEW YORK, Sept, 6, (F)-Search is under way for a man represent ing himself as c. D. Waggoner Colorado banker, to explain the mysterious $500,000 transaction in which six large New York banks were victims of fake telegraphic transfer orders. Thus far no real money has been lost as the entire transaction was executed with banking paper.
 The scheme started August 30 when six New York banks received telegrams in bankers code directing them to deposit sums to the credit of the bank of Telluride, Colo. The banks were the Chemical National Bank, First National Guaranty & Trust Co.,, National City Bank, Hartman National Bank and the Equita ble Trust co.
 On August 30 the first man, rep |resenting himself as Waggoner president of the bank of Telluride paid off note for $25OOOO of the bank of Telluride and a personal note of Waggoner for $6OOOO and ordered $1O,0O0 telegraphed to Tel luride. He then purchased a bank CTS check for $180,0o0 which was the only piece of paper which can be converted to cash.
