The Yuba Manufacturing Com
tany, E. A. Weeks, Superintendent

rg a construction camp on Won
ier Creek, about a half mile east
>: dredge No. 1. where the con
u ruction of a new mammoth
iredge will be i..nstructed this
<ummer for the Hainniuii Consoli
lated Gold Fields.
The dredge will be practically a
lit plicate of dredge N<>. 1 built by
the Yuba Mfg. Co. for the Hatn
n on Company two years ago, and
will be of nine cubic feet capacity.
It is expected to have the new
dredge completed by October 15th
of this year.
The .freighter Oduna which is
new due to arrive in Nome, has
1 50 tons of machinery and six
hundred and fifty thousand feet of
lumber aboard which is to be used
in starting the construction work
of the dredge. On the second trip
of the Oduna. leaving San Fran
gjtoeo July 15th. the vessel will
ming the balance of the machinery
and material for the completion of
this dredge.
Three new 525 h.p. Deisel engi
nes will be added to the present
power plant this spring. doubling
its present capacity, the (installa
tion of these new units will be
• under the Superintendency of Rod
Sargent, who with his family ar- !
rived in Nome on the Victoria.
The Hamilton Company have
also made arrangements fur the i
reception of an Oil Tanker which j
i- due to arrive in Nome s*>on with
35,000 barrels of crude oil. This
will give, not only the Ilammon
Company a two years supply of oil
but will supply ti;.- entire mining
sections of Seward peninsula.
During the past winter the com
pany lias operated 11 drills which
are used in conne'M.on with the
cold water thawinjg system, them*
are at present 550 cold water thaw
itig points in operation, which it Is:
estimated will thaw enough ground
to keep No. 1 dredge busy for about
three months. It is expected that
the No. 1 dredge will begin dredg
ing operations in a few days. No.
2 dredge which has been continu
ously operating since .May* first, is
working in thawed ground, and
making good headway.
