When the mammoth bucket line

and slipped into the pond a few
, days ago, work on that ship was
shut down for several days. A diver

was able to make attachments nec
essary to raise them.
The mining season opened in full
blast at Dawson on May 26. The
Yukon Gold Company's big hydro
electric plant started up on that
date and its dredges immediately
began digging. The Canadian Klon
dike dredges also began work about
the same time. Many hydraulic
plants have started Up and many
winter dumps are being rapidly
cleaned up. The Yukon Territory’s
gold yield this season is expected to
run well up into the millions of
dollars

aska formally opeaed on May 13
with two operators on Livengood
creek starting to shovel dirt into
the sluice boxes. Plenty of water
is reported on the upper creek. On

up a scraping plant to handle the
tail end of two dumpB taken out
last summer from which a cleanup
of $50,000 is expected this spring.
A Keystone drill also has started
operations on Mike Hass creek in an

President Stave Birch of the Ken
necott corporation says the cost of
producing a pound of copper by his
company is under 10 cents a pound
compared with 9 cents last year.
Mr. Birch said that the end of the
famous mine was not in sight as
more ore than ever was developed.
The corporation is opening up new
bodies of 60 per cent grade and as
a demand for copper is springing up
the dividends will depend upou the
condition of the market.
