MAYO ORE OUTPUT
BREAKING RECORD.
The production of silver ore
i in the Mayo district will break
j all records this winter, accord
; ing to advices received at Daw
ion. Quite a number of the in
dependent miners are now on
he paystreak and they are en
gaged this winter in sacking
j their high grade ore, some of
which goes $1000 or more to
the Ion, says the Dawson
News.
Every obtainable vehicle is in
commission hauling the .ore
from the mines to the landing
in the Stewart river, and mov
ng concentrates and supplies,
and there is the promise that
they will be kept busy during
the greater part of the winter.
There is strong agitation now
at Mayo for the installation of
a customs mill for the treat
ment of ore from the independ
ent mines, it being claimed
that such a mill would result
in a greatly increased product
ion.
Patrick Gidea has been ap
pointed by Judge T. M. Reed,
as referee in bankruptcy for
the southern district of the
First Division of Alaska. He
will handle such cases as arise
in the Ketchikan district.
The appointment creates a
second ofice of its kind in the
First Division, heretofore there
having been only one referee
for the entire district, held by
Grover C. Winn.
