WILL DEVELOP
NORTHERN MINES
That the United Stales Smelt
iug, Refining & Mining Com
pany proposes to operate un a
( large scale and develope (lie
i many properties under option
l to it in Alaska is given further
proof in a letter from the well
known New York firm of
Thompson, Towle tv Company,
which says:
Seven thousand stockholders
of the United States Smelling
liefining & Smelting Co., have
been greatly disturbed the past
week over the decline in the
securities of that company,
based on the fear of damage
lo the company’s big silver
property in Pacucah, 40 miles
northwest of Mexico City on
the main line of railroad, be
tween Mexico City and Vera
Cruz.
Last year this property con
tributed earnings equvalent to
*2.00 a share on the common
stock,and the loss of these
earnings at a time when the
earnings from the company’s
Centennial-Eureka, Gold Roads
and Needles properties are
showing unfortunate decreas
es, would naturally cause more
or less fea of reduction in
U. S. Smelting common stock
dividends. This latler action
of course depends on the
length of time its Mexican
properties are out of commis
sion and whether or not in the
absence of Americans any
damage is done to the proper
ty. It is not improbable that
with no income from Mexico
the common stock dividend
might be temporarily reduced,
but so far as the preferred
slock is concerned, the stock
holders need have no fear, for
dividends there are well pro
tected by earnings, and it i>
only a question of lime when
the Mexican properties will a
gain be contributing their quota
of earnings to the company.

JACK WILL REMAIN
AS DEPUTY MARSHAL
Although Marshal Harry A.
Bishop is not yet in a position
to announce his choice for
deputy marshals to serve un
! der him, the numerous rumors
| which have gone afloat in
Mi • connection have led politic
al students to believe that Dep
uty Marshals Hector McLean
and Williams Fels of Juneau,
and Jack II. Davies of Ketchi
kan, will be re-appointed, and
Miat Thomas Cole, Z. M. Brad
ford and C. F. Cheek will be
given places on Mr. Bishop’s
staff if they desire them.
Marshal Bishop has entered
iipmi 1c duties of hi? cdficinl
position with an alacrity that
emphasized his appreciation of
I ho importance of his office.
Ho was busy today in his office
familiarizing himself with the
routine details. Former Mar
shal II. L. Faulkner has will
ingly loaned his assistance to
his successor in learning the
work Mr. Bishop faces, and
with this aid the new marshal
should be wearing his official
harness without burden in a
very short time.—Juneau Dis

BEN HUNT’S WINNING
STREAK IS BROKEN
Long Ben Hunt, the port-side
hinder who pitched for Juneau
last year, tasted the first de
feat of his present season with
l he Vancouver club in the
Northwestern league when Spo
kane beat Vancouver, with
Hunt in the box, on the home
grounds Wednesday. The
score was 3 to 2. Spokane’s
best pitcher, Covcleskie, was
on the firing line for the In
dians. Hunt won his first six
games. He is still the leading
pitcher of the Northwestern
league.

BE VERY VERY CAREFUL
The attention of the people
of the town is called ta the un
usually dry condition of the
sidewalks and buildings as the
results of the absence of rain,
and the winds of late. Several
small fires have occurred dur
ing the past few days on the
streets and like places as the
result of carelessly thrown
matches or cigaret stubs, and
care, great care, chould be ex
ercised by everybody to pre
vent a bad fire that may do
great damage.
