New Free Gold Vein
 Cut On Unicorn Group

Recent development work on
 the Unicorn property has dis
 closed another vein of free gold ore to the westward of the No. 8 tunnel, according to John Hovland, president and mana
 ger of Unicorn Mines, Ltd.
 In a statement to the Herald regarding the new discovery, MT. Hovland said:
 "A cross cut to the west from the No. 3 tunnel at point 372 feet from the portal was start ed last fall, with a bearing north, 60 degrees west. The purpose of this cross cut was to explore a large outcrop on the hillside to the west of the tun- nel and which had been traced on the surface for some 2000 feet. At a point 37 feet west of station 5 in the main tunnel. the east boundary of a we'll de- fined mineralized vein striking north, 20 degrees west and with a westerly dip of 70 de- grees, was cut. Five feet of this was heavily mineralized with pyrite showing visible free gold. The east wall of the vein was we'll defined, but the westerly boundary is more or less intermiXed with the quartz porphyry. Stringers of quartz are numerous.
 "This vein is no doubt a part of the large outcrop along the hillside west of the camp, and which has been exposed by op- en cuts in the large outcrop on the Unity claim some 1900 feet to the north of the cross cut.
 "A cross fracture striking north, 60 degrees west, with a southerly dip of 60 degrees is at the face of the cross cut. Indications are that this is one of numerous east-west cross fractures exposed on the surface to the west of the cross cut. Some of the higher grade ore was found in these cross veins on the surface"

P|TTMAN BILL IS
 REPORTED FAVORABLY

The Pittman bill, authorizing the United States to buy up tht annual production of domestic silver up to 60,000,O00 ounces was favorably reported last Monday by the Senate Banking committee, it was reported ir Washington news dispatches o1 that date
 This bill is now the principal hope of silver supporters for bringing about increased use of silver as monetary basis in the United States and for in- creaslng the present excessive ly low price of the metal.
 As the measure now stands, the government is authorized to buy domestic silver at the current market price at the time of purchase. Purchases are not to exceed 5,000,000 ounces per month and the measure as reported fixes a price limit of 50 cents per ounce. This price limit was evidently inserted by the com mltte, as no price limit on purchases was fixed in the original measure introduced by Senator Putnam.
 The silver bullion purchased is to be paid for by issuing sil7 yer certificates and subsidiary metal coins backed by coined silver dollars retained in the Treasury. The notes would be legal tender in payment of all debts, public and private, in- cluding customs and public dues.
 While the measure has yet to receive the approval of the House, its endorsement by the Senate committee constitutes the first definite step so far achieved toward inducing the government to do something to- ward the rehabilitation of sill CT.

SENATE PASSES
 UNEMPL PLOYMENT BILL

Radio reports Thursday even- Ing announced the passage by .he United States Senate of a S2,500,OOO,000 unemployment relief bill modelled on the same plan as that introduced by Speaker Garner, of the House, for which it was substituted.
 The Garner bill was designed to give direct unemployment relief throughout the nation by means of public works.
 It is understood that the Sen ate measure will now go to the House for ratification by that body.
 The reports said the demo- crats fear president Hoover might veto the bill and have declared an intention to hold Congress in session until he either approves or rejects the measure. In the latter case, an effort will probably be made to pass it over his head.

Tidal Wave Hits Mail Boat

Struck by what appeared to
 be a tidal wave while enroute
 here from Ketchikan early
 Tuesday morning, the mali
 boat City of Anacortes came
 perilously close to found
 ering, according to statements
 by passengers and members of
 the crew.
 The huge wave struck the
 vessel while it was off Tree
 Point near the entrance to
 Portland Canal, at 1:3O a. m
 Capt. Ed. Williams, who was a. the wheel, caught a glimpse of
 the great wall of water sweep ing across the otherwise calm sea and attempted to turn the bow of his vessel to meet the oncoming mass, which ap- peared in the dim light as long, dark wall. He succeed in getting the vessel partially turned before it was literally engulfed by the rushing flood and thrown on it's beam ends Capt. Williams was knocked out of the pilot house door and would have been carried over board had he not been able tc grasp the pilots stool, which had damned in the narrow doorway. Oren F. Hill, of Fly der, who was a passenger OF the vessel, was thrown violent. ly from his berth and drenched by the water on the cabin floor. The engine room was flooded, 1 causing the engine to stop and the entire deck cargo 1 was swept overheard. The yes sel remained on her beam ends | for several minutes after the 1 wave passed but finally re- gained an even keel after ev- eryone on board had all but | given uphope that she would | right herself. Later, with her engine disabled, the vessel became stranded on the rocks l at Tree Point and was hung up for seven hours until released by the next high tide. Later, while coming up Portland Can al, the bearings of the disabled engine burned out.
 As a result of the numerous the vessel ar lived here on two cylinders over "A hours behind schedule and was compelled to lay over for some time while the engine vas patched up sufficiently to 'eturn to Ketchikan.

JOHNSON VICTIM OF
 FIRE TRAGEDY

That Andrew Johnson, local miner, met an agonizing death in the destruction of the Out land Silver Bar assay office some time during the past win- ter was revealed Thursday morning when his fire black ened and animal mutilated re- mains were found by a search party from Stewart headed by Constable Potterton and in cluding E. E. Charlton and Gus Erickson.
 The party left Wednesday evening and arrived at the Sil- yer Bar Thursday morning af- ter travelling all night and was just in time to find the remains of the unfortunate miner in the possession of a large grizzly bear, who evidently had had one meal on the body and was starting another.
 Being without firearms. the party had considerable diff culty in driving the animal away, but finally succeeded.
 It was then found that the body had been dragged from a point about 10 feet away from the burned cabin, where Johnson evidently fell after es- caping from the burning build ing. The condition of the body indicated that it had been un- covered by the melting snow only a few days before. The remains were clad only in shirt and were badly burned on the back, limbs and feet, show ing that Johnson had been in contact with the flames. All indications pointed to the prob ability that Johnson was in bed when the fire broke out, but managed to escape after sustaining severe burns. After getting out, he apparently was unable to proceed more than ten feet or so before falling in the snow to rise no mere. De- spite mutilation, the remains were easily recognizable as those of the long-mls >'ng min- CT.
 The remains were brought down to the foot of Salmon glacier and inferred after in- spection by Dr Vosburgh, cor oner for the Stewart district.
