Gales blowing day in and day out,
I and only stopping long enough f or
[the wind to change to another quar
ter, have proved too hard a problem
for even the ferocious Alaskan mos
quito to solve, says A. ,•>. Graham,
| manager of the American Tin Dredg
ing company, to the Seattle Post-In
telligencer. The company operates or.
lluck creek, near York, 50 miles north
of Teller. Mr. Graham works a force
of men on the dredge all the summer
season and while other marsh districts
of the north are simply swarming
with mosquitoes, this region, which
is right at the coast, gets the full
sweep of the gales from the Arctic I
! ocean and is kept free from the pests.!
"There is too much wind for the in
sects to even get a foothold on solid
ground, let alone trying to fly up in
to a man’s face,” said Mr. Graham.
“The wind blows almost constantly.
The only times when it is ever calm
at all are when the wind shifts to an
other quarter. Then there may be a
period of a few minutes when there is
no breeze.” The American Tin Dred
ging company takes out about sixty
tons of tin in a season, says Mr. Gra
ham. This tin, which is sold in Sing
apore, brings about $1,000 a ton. But
for every ton of tin recovered from
the bed of the river the workers pet
about $22 in gold dust and nugge ts.
According to Mr. Graham, the cc ,
pany has several years’ work ahca<
of it, and as they are working from
the stream’s mouth upwards, the de
posits should get richer as they go up
stream. “We are one of the feu tin
mining companies in the country,” he
said. “We dredge these tin nugg;
and small particles from the bottom
of the stream just like gold is dredged
, elsewhere. While we ship our ore
to Singapore, a new smelting compa
ny which handles tin is now operating
in New Jersey,’ and we may ship ou:
product there. The tin ore we get
runs about 65'- per cent pure, so you
can see it is a valuable product.”

Alaska Mine Operators Annoyed.
According to a story told to J. J.
Underwood of the Seattle Times by B.
L. Thane, manager of the Alaska Gas
tineau mine at Juneau, lawyers who
specialize in personal damage suits
are creating such trouble for the mine
operators of Alaska that in some in
stances they are actually hampering
the development of the country, he
says. The personal damage special
ists have conceived the idea of filing
suits against the foremen of the
mines for trial in various parts of the
United States—the farther away from
Alaska the better, said Mr. Thane.
He has just finished trying a person
al damage suit filed against Paddy
O’Neil, formerly of the Gastineau,
I who left the company’s employ two
years ago. The case against the com
pany had already been adjudicated in
Alaska. Seven suits have been filed
against the foremen of the Treadwell
groups of mines, and three suits are
to be tried, not in Alaska, but in Min-I
neapolis.
Bearskins from Alaska.
After a successful hunting expedi
tion into the wilds of Kodiak island
from Uyak, A. Barton Hepburn,
chairman of the board of directors of
the Chase National Bank of New
York, and Enos S. Booth, an attorney
of the eastern metropolis, returned
to Seattle recently. With Captain
Fred Davidson, a veteran of the west
ern Alaska country, as guide, Mr.
Hepburn and Mr. Booth made a two
weeks’ trip on foot, and by small boat
to the haunts of the great brown bear
of Kodiak island. Six of the big fel
lows were bagged and the skins taken
to Seattle. The hunting party sailed
( from Seattle on April 23.

For more than 35 years C. A. Set
ter followed the trail of nature’s goh
jnly to die shortly after he had made
his strike. From Wisconsin to the
black hills of the Dakotas and tiier.ci
nto the distanceless interior of Alas
ka he pursued the precious metal,
says the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
‘I’ll not come out until I have enough
to carry me for the rest of my life,”
he told a friend when he went “in
side” 13 years ago on his third trip
to Alaska. He came out last fall.
Two weeks ago a man who had reach
ed his three-score years dropped dead
an the street in Los Angeles. A bank
iraft for $3,700 on the Scandinavian
American bank was in his pocket; a
heavy chain of gold nuggets hung
across his vest; several loose nuggets
were in his pockets, and he carried
other valuable jewelry. It was C. A.
Settler. Through letters in his pock
ets the authorities found that his one
known friend was D. W. West of 405
Hinckley block, Seattle, and to Mr.
West the body will come. Now Mr.
West is trying to iocate relatives and
friends of the dead man. He is also
trying to get information of property
owned by Mr. Settler, which he be
lieves must be extensive. “I know he
had several claims in the north, but I
have no idea of where they are lo
cated,” said Mr. West. “Mr. Settler
lived in Seattle thirty years ago, and
made two trips to Alaska before the
Klondike rush. He went inside 13
years ago on his third and last trip.
He spent most of the last 13 years in
the Fairbanks district. Mr. Settler
was a member of the Pioneers of
Alaska, and Mr. West will try to get
some information concerning the rela
tives of his dead friend from the rec
ords of the organization.
