ing ore in any considerable quan
tities and three tire the Yukon Gold
Company and the Treadwell Yukon
Company. One other mine in the
district which has developed % cer
tain amount of ore has made no
production, but will probably do so
during the coming season — thi?
mine is owned in part by the Mar
cus Daly Kstatc.
“A (Treat deal of prospecting is
going on in the district but owing
to I he fart that the surface is cov
ered with a mantle of broken rock
and vegetation, prospecting is done
with great difficulty and for this
reason the further development of
the camp will be slow. Some of the
prospectors aro successful In get
ting out small quantities of ore
J which are absorbed by the shlp
Iments from the largo companies,
jthus giving the prospector an outlet
I for his small production.
| “During the past winter the ore
produced by the Treadwell Yukon
[Company was hauled from the mine
| to Mayo, on the Stewart River, a
I distance of 41 miles by artillery
type caterpillar tractors with great
success. The average load hauled
was about 45 tonB and the maximum
load hauled waa 72 tons. The use
of tractors has greatly reduced the
cost of hauling this ore and it Is
now recognized throughout the dis
trict that the haulage can be done
; much cheaper by tractors than by
horses.
Road Beinp Built.
The Canadian Government has
j made appropriations for road work
land is doing a great deal to facili
| tate the development of the ramp
by improving the toad between the
mines and Mayo. This will be a
great advantage to the district as
It will cheapen the cost of hauling
and save considerable time between
tho mines and fho Stewart River.
The Government has purchased a
email flvo-ton artillery type cater
pillar tractor for use on road work
and this has accomplished much
more during the present summer
than could possibly have been ac
complished by horses. When this
road work Is completed it will be
possible to haul -^fre from the dis
trict throughout the entire year,
whereas during the past It has been
possible to haul only during the
winter.
"The outlook for the futur^ Is
promising, and while the caflflrtas
j not expanded as rapidly as some
(have hoped, It is no doubt destined
| to become a great producer of silver
and lead ores. New discoveries
can be reasonably expected in the
future, but owing to the difficulties
met in prospecting ,the general de
velopment of th.e camp as a district
will be slow."
Mr. Bradley made the return trip
from Fairbanks over the Alaska
Railroad, arriving here yesterday on
the steamer Alaska.
