LOCAL MINING COMPANIES'
Alphabetically arranged list
of active and semi-active min
ing organizations operating in
the Portland Canal Mining Dis

Note: In compiling the following in
dex of local mining concerns the
publishers have been unable in some
instances to secure much desired in
formation; owing principally to in
ability to locate* the office address
es of various companies. As a result,
the list fails to .include titles or
other data relative to a small num
ber of companies.
These will be added to the list as fast
as the necessary information can be
secured.

ALASKA NOTES
The government radio stat
| ion at Nome was burned to the
giound on the morning of De
cember 28, the fire resulting
from a defective flue. The
station crew and their families
lost everything but no one was
injured .
Some violent subterranean
disturbance at the bottom of
Gastineau Channel a few days
ago caused the collapse of the
Standard Oil Co. dock and half
of its warehouse at Juneau.
The loss was estimated at $60,
000. Part of the Thane high
way about 150 yards north of
the S. O. plant was also so
dangerously undermined that
the road was closed The dock
and warehouse sank slowly in
to the channel without warn
ing. The disaster is attributed
directly to a submarine land
slide.
