ALASKA JU NEAU SHUTS DOWN ON TAKU PROPERTY
Ceases Development and
 Will Dismantle Camp on Manville Group

Cessation of work at the Alaska Juneau camp on Taku River, clos ure of the camp and removal of all machinery and equipment at once, was announced late yesterday by L.. H. Metzgar, General Superin- tendent of the Alaska Juneau. Joe Williams, Alaska Juneau engineer, left here yesterday morning to close down operations on the Man vile group.
 This action by the comuany pre- Gicates surrender by it of the option taken on the Manville, or Big Bull, group last year, as j.. comes within few weeks of the next option payment date, which falls on October 1.
 The machinery and camp equip nent that have been used in the company's development and ex- ploratory operations will be moved to Juneau, MT Metzgar said. It will be stored in customs bond Ill 9 company warehouse and held there for other possible operations on the British Columbia side of the line in the future.
 Since it first initiated work on the Taku properties about a year ago, the Alaska Juneau interests have expended about $250,000, of which $200.000 was spent on the Manville claims which, it was point led out, formed the backbone of the entire prospect. The crew has average about 35 men. A large area of ground was prospected with keystone drills, tunnels and one shaft driven.
 "The stoppage of work at our present location does not mean the Alaska Juneau has withdrawn from the Taku district, or lost interest in the field,' MT. Metzgar said We will watch it with interest; are lprepared to look at any new dis coveries made; and will be ready | to undertake development of any
 prospect that seems to have the clements for developing mining property"
