The Gold Mountain district, on the

\ big pay streak, according to William
Lane, nephew of C. 1). Lane, of Nome,
and 1'. Warner, now in Fairbanks for
the purpose of purchasing machinery
for their ». .-Idings on (Irani ereek.
They made their strike on (..Irani last
November, but kept it t secret until
after the llrst of the year when a
number of old locations ran out, and
they were able to acquire now ground
. The strike was made on the Alabama
association located about eight miles
from the mouth of the stream. At
k this point nineteen holes were sunk
>• in cross-cutting the valley and a pay
slreak:>12 feet wide was localed. This
4 pay is nine feet in 11«*pt!i and aver
- ages ten eonts to the pan. Tho gold
is coarse containing* a i.iir preeentage
of small nuggets, and is found al
most entirely in the grave!. Ihdroek
! is for the most part of si Insist with
occasional granites and serpentines.
Messrs. Lang and Warner have1
been woVking on (Irani creek since
last ScptemlK r, using tour boilers
and empio.y ing fourteen men. Since
that tiire they have put down nearly
a hundred holes, ai• <i since making
tin; strike in November, have traced
the paystreak for more than four
miles. The\ now own eleven miles
of the ground, including eight miles
on (Irani proper, and three miles
on Lynx creek, a tributary oi (Irani.
The ground varies in depih Iio:m
thirty-two feet to eighteen feci
and is an ideal open cut pro
position. As was before .Mated,
Messrs. Lane and Warnor art- now in
the city to make arrangements !"»>»
machinery to handle' tin; dirt. They
will return to the lower camp a'in>ut
the last of the month.
f J runt creek, like ot!i rs intln» (Jold
Mountain district, was staked :i year
ago last fall, hut the prospector did
not follow up their staking, being
content merely to main: a discovery ;
and it remain'd i»»r someone lo come
after, do the real prospecting and
reap tin1 rewards. <>n Mason creek,
Charley Chun, formerly on Cleary,
struck pay late in the full, taking
out $100 from two hox l> ngth i th::t I ;•

of men at work putting in a dam in
preparation for extensive work next

Sam McDill and Jim l.augford on
Illinois are also said to be in the
money, but the most extensive pre
parations being made in the district
are those of Pick l!ud:;on on Hudson
crock, a tributary of the Utile Melozi.
To reach Hudson creck, one lias to
go up Illinois creek and then cross
the divide. Hudson lias built seven

Me. KUiott declares that the Valdez

from the copper country into the
Copper river.
iieorge Love, auditor for the Valdez
Vukoii, when questioned as to the
purport of the foregoing cable dis
patch, expressed the belief that Mr.
Klliott is basing his statement on the
belief that the report of the experts
to go in in June for the purpose of
passing on the MeCarty and on the
!luhhard-Kiliott copper property will
be favorable. Mr. Love says that in
this case work on the road will begin
immediately upon the tiling of the
report, and that the road will be
rn.hcd through the canyon.
The culmination of the Hirseh deal
depends upon the report of the ex
pert;- who are to go in in June.

have the road appropriation rein

Brown of Valdez, and he has all his
friends busy telegraphing to congress
protests against the action of the
house.
Seattle business men are joining
with the Alaskans in their effort to
obtain the money for the road work,
and the Washington delegation to
congress is being urged to get into
the light.
In charging Senator Nelson with
being the cause of the trouble Alas
kans dec lare (hat lie has always had
a grudge against Alaska, and they
say thai if he did not take the initia
tive in the affair, he is now doing all
possible t<» prevent the reinstatement

ALASKAN BUREAU
MOVES TO SEATTLE
Work Of Assembling Exhibit
For A-Y-P Will Proceed
With Expedition
Seattle, Jan. 23—Spocial corres
pondence—Headquarters of the Alas
ka commission for tlio Alaska-Yukou
Paciflc exposition have been estab
lished in Seattle and the work of as
sembling the exhibit of the Northland
will be commenced at once. Exhibits
from all parts of Alaska will soon
begin to arrivo in Seattle.
"All the work that could bo done in
Alaska has been accomplished," said
J. C. McBride, of the commission,
"and the work of assembling and pre
paring the exhibits will be Hnished in
this city. I feel justified in saying
that Alaska will have many surprises
for the visitors at the fair and the
work of the special agonts has been
entirely satisfactory and even sur
prising in many instances.
"The work of getting the Alaska
exhibit really begins now for we will
have it coming here shortly from
every point in the North, and added
to what we have already got here it
will keep our staff busy receiving,
classifying and putting the articles
together. In southeastern Alaska we
have gone over the country from
every point of view and will make a
showing of the resources of that
country that cannot bo paralleled.
"While there is yet much to receive
from Alaska, our agents have repor
ted so concisely on what to expect
that we can go ahead about as well as
if it was in the preliminary work. We
have a number of big exhibits to
socure outside, sucn as private collec
tions of birds and curios, and this will
take up Mome of our time.
"Mrs. Mary E. Hart, special woman
commissioner, has also returned from
Alaska and will be associated with
the commission in its work in this
city.
"Wherever I went in Alaska I met
with such hearty responso to thecalls
I issued," said Mrs. Hart, "that it
urged me to do my utmost. I believe
the women of Alaska will make sueh
a showing at the fair that it will even
astonish the people from there. In
Seward, Valdoz, Cordova, Katalla,
Sitka, Skagway, Juneau, Douglas,
Tread woll, Petersburg, Wrangell,
Ketchikan and Mctlakatla clubs have
been formed and the worn cm have
ontered into the work almost ns a
unit with a zeal that promises much
and where tho men have not taken a
real active interost thoy havo encour
aged them to work for the exposition.
"The native women of Mctlakatla
will havo one of tho most unique
exhibits ovor shown at an exposition
and every visitor of tho fair will be
Impressed with tho manner in which
tho women of Alaska havo contrib
uted to tho exhibit of the northern
country."
