BY the Associated Press.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark, March 40
State Representative w. U. McCabe
who lies in a hospital here with bull
let lodged in the right auricle Of his
heart, is one of the few similar cases
in medical annals, according to sur
geons.
McCabe was wounded March IL when
a bullet fired through the door OF his
hotel room struck him in the breast.
j. @. Lansdale of Atlanta, Ga, Is now
charged with having fired the shot.
The very seriousness of the wound
probably was the indirect result of keep
ing McCabe alive, physicians pointed
out. They explained his heart action
was so weak that blood clot was able
to form in the hole made by the bull
let, sealing the wound and preventing
his blood from being wasted. Sur
geons said the bullet must remain in
the heart, for to remove it would cause
death.

NEW RAPHAEL FOUND

Madonna Discovered In Obscure
Gallery at Albenga.
ALBENGA, italy fF9.-A Raphael
Madonna, it is believed, has been dis
covered here in an obscure gallery con-
tanning only 10 paintings.
Experts have certified its authenticity,
and it will probably be taken to the
large.' gallery at Genoa.
The painting shows the Madonna Of
Divine Love- with the child Jesus
standing on her knees and laughing at
little st. John the Baptist. Nearby is
st. Elizabeth kneeling and near her st.
Joseph
The moment the authorities Of Genoa
heard about the discovery they swooped
down on the gallery and practically
padlocked it. They forbade the owner
to make any disposition of the Raphael
or the other paintings.

NEW YORK, May 2. R-Drect- ors of the United States Steel Corporation declared regular quar- terly dividends of $1.75 on both common and preferred stock at a meeting held here, although they had to draw upon surplus derived from previous years to do it. The company's net earnings for the first quarter of the year amounted to only $19,464,836, the equivalent of five cents a share, las compared with $23,083,791 or |69 cents a share for the last quarter of 193O and $49,615,397 or $5.33 per share for the first quar- ter of 193O.
 The surplus of the company at the end of last year amounted to $741, ,782,759 and is therefore suf- ficient to carry it and its stock holders through a long period of decreased earnings.

PRESIDENT BUNNELL RELATES ACTIVITIES; MORE ROOM
 IMPERATIVE

Returning esterday from a three weeks trip to Juneau where he had been called by the Ter ritorial Legislature to attend com mittee hearings, President Charles E. Bunnell of the Alaska College was passenger on the SS Yukon banks.
 President Bunnell reports an appropriation of $l59,420 for the coming biennium.

GOLD MINE |S
 THREE TIMES RICHER THAN FIRST THOUGHT
GOYNE STRIKES RICH ORE IN QUARTZ DISTRICT NEAR
 SEWARD


 in sight!
 There's something wrong some place.
 Gold by the bucket-fulls yet capital seems uninterested. Per- hapS because Socalled experts long ago turned thumbs down on Nuka Bay and their adverse re- ports the only ones available. Whatever the reason, there are, literally speaking, tons of gold in sight in the Nuka Bay quartz dis trict; cleanups are being brought to Seward quite regularly by Downey & Babcock yet big capital continues to look elsewhere.
 Downey & Babcock are not in- terested, insofar as obtaining out side money to carry on; they fin anced themselves, with the aid of a loyal, 100 per cent Seward en- thusiast, and now all will reap a fortune.
 Its the rich undeveloped prop critics The Gateway refers to. The latest of these is that of Charles Goyne, who came to Sew ard on the last boat, with a bag full of quartz specimen which, if shown any place but in Alas ka, would start a stampede in an hour.
 Goyne's tunnel has proved out thrice as rich as surface indica- tionS, the tunnel assays running S66.76 to the ton while the sur face went S27.25. He has traced the ore 600 feet which has three different and distinct rich ore shoots going to the surface, 10 feet above.
 Goyne is getting out a small amount for shipment; in the meantime he will go right ahead with development work
 His property is two miles from the enormously rich Babcock & Downey claims, and the undevop- ed ground of Johnston & Deegan; on Downey Mountain. Three great prospects are on this mountain, each and everyone of which should make good paying mines.
 He said that just recently Dow high streak of ore on their raise ney & Babcock ran into another which, like other ore in the mine, will undoubtedly assay thous- ands of dollars per ton. They al- ready have ore running 5000, it is said, and the depth, contrary 70 expert reports, is proven to at least 150 feet Which should be good enogh for anyone.
 Gaylord Skinner, on Lang's Beach, not so far away, has turn ed up promising ore. This is an entirely new prospect.
 Goyne's tunnel is about 15O feet from tidewater; Skinner's is right on the beach; Babcock & Downey are located about a mile from the beach on a gentle slope All are excellent tidewater propo- sitions, and about them are vir- gin forests for timberS.
 The country has everything but still capital is disinterested. What is wrong with the picture, any, way?
