Arrivals from Candle on the last
| trip of the Silver Wave report thnt
j irfming in the Candle section Is pro
I
greasing nicely and the volume of
summer activities continue well up to
the usual standard.
Fifteen or sixteen outfits are work
ing or preparing for work on Can
dle creek and several others are car
rying on summer operations on the
tributary streams. Three outfits are
using steam scrapers as the main
adjunct to mining and two others
are employing the contrivance known
us the Rubel elevator with excellent
success. The elevator is but little
known in the Nome section but has
been employed with excellent re
sults on Candle creek for a number
of years. The contrivance consists
of nn inclined plane carrying riffles
over which the gold carrying gravels
are washed by means of hydraulic
nozzles. High boards are attached
to the sides to prevent the gravels
falling up as they are carried up
the incline. At the lower end wings
are placed in such manner as to con
centrate the flow of water and earth
toward the. center of the Incline.
As the gravel is washed up the
Incline by the nozzle this finer ma
terial Is caught in the riffles lin
ing the bottom and passes through
perforations in the bottom onto plates
fixed below and is thence carried to
a riffle flume where the washing pro
cess is continued and the gold sep
arated from the lighter gravels in
the same manner as in the ordinary
*li»ice box. The elevator resembles
a horse tread mill in general appear
ance. The Keewalik Mining Com
pany is employing a Rubel elevator
at the mouth of Cnndle and another
is being successfully employed by A.
Rydeen on Bear creek.
A trip along Candle creek discloses
considerable activity
On the upper reaches of the stream,
Frank Fellows is putting in an ex
tensive ditch system to obtain water
for prospecting a number of beaches
on the left limit and is also doing
some ground sluicing and shoveling
in.
Below Fellows Major Riley is shov
eling 'in the ground sluicing with the
aid of a small ditch.
T. S. Kronqu'ist is the third in the
line as the mushor passed down
si ream. He has ground sluiced a
considerable area of ground and will
employ a steam scraper to place the
remainder in the boxes.

BLOCKADE RUN
By Associated Pres?.
LONDON, July 18.—Reports from
Holland sources detailing the capture
of a number of German vessels and
the sinking of several others by the
Rritish patrol fleet in the North spa
yesterday have been partially con
ined by an official statement of the
British admiralty which asserts that
four small German steamships have
be<*n captured off the Dutch sen
coast by British destroyers after
a sharp chase durin% which the war
ships fired on tile German fleet.
The statement says that In addi
tion 'to capturing the four vessels
mentioned two other vessels were hit
hy shot from the warships and badly
i..mag<d hut were able to reach the
neutral waters along the Dutch
coast. The admiralty story differs
slightly from the Dutch reports It
makes no mention of ships having
been sunk hy the ilritish tire.
Tin- vessels were ostensibly on a
■ a.ling expedition along the Dutch
nasi Inn are believed to have been
sent out to test the closeness of the
Ihiiifih blockade Although small in
size all were of high speed capacity
and gave the destroyers quite a chase
before leing overtaken..
