That next season's output in the R
>: Tolovana camp will be between $800,- 11
■i; 000 and $1,000,000, is the statement 11
£ of Walter Fisher, the well known "
mining man and Tolovana lumber ■’
dealer. Mr. Fisher bases his opinion K
on the output of the two claims which *'
J were worked last summer and upon
•' the prospects found during the pres- 0
. ent winter. He asserts that most of "
the gold will come from the left limit 0
benches of Livengood creek, although 11
| the creek claims will produce their 11
:: quota. Mike Hess, Moose creek and
1 the streams in the Promised Land a
country may also add materially to a
• the output, although good prospects
■ only have been located there. ■
, Pay has now been discovered from I
[ 1 below discovery on Livengood to I
j No. 10 above discovery. Below dis
| covery the pay that was recently un
| covered by Keyes & Ilettig, lies on
1 the right limit bench at the mouth of
i Lillian creek. McIntosh brothers, on
Discovery bench, left limit, come next
in line of expected -producers of pay
, during the coming summer.
The next claim lined up as one of
r those which will produce good money
. next summer is the Deep Channel as
• sociation. Harry Patterson and as- ta
t sociates are ming there, and owipg oi
to the fact that the claim was mined a
: successfully last summer, despite the in
i fact that the season was only one of vi
• development and everything was high qi
: it is expected to be the largest pro-1 it
: ducer in the camp during the coming a
: season. Gus Peterson's ground, just n
• above Patterson at the mouth of is
? Franklyn gulch, will also be. one of .V
| the camp's large producers during the t(
: coming season. li
I Mudge & Doggett and Altman & t(
• Allman, both concerns operating in
• the vicinity of numbers 9 and 10 tl
: aboy,e, will also be among the pro- p
ducers. They only recently struck tl
the pay and have not yet opened up n
- for summer operations, although it s
Is expected that they will do so very'lp
shortly.
Taken altogether the paystreak on E
Livengood may be said to be about it
four miles in length. There are* : 1;
however, several breaks in the re-ltl
; gular run where pay has not been a
located, but it is thought that further
prospecting will ultimately line them n
up. 11;
Mr. Fisher has not visited Mike °
■
Hess creek and tributaries lately. He jc
- was informed, however, that good a
prospects had been located on several "
of the creeks, and believes that pay 5
will undoubtedly be found and that in t
the near future, particularly in the f
shallow ground which is a feature »
»of the creeks in the Promised Land 11
. country. C
Business conditions generally at
Brooks and West Fork ar^ good, ac- 11
cording to Mr. Fisher. Buildings are 1
still being constructed at Brooks, and v
the demand for lumber is good. He P
and his partners have about 100,000 '
feet of lumber now on hand at their f
mill at West Fork, and are still cut- f
ting. f]

PROSPECTOR FROZEN TO 1
DEATH IN STORM
The Golovin mail carrier made a j b
gruesome find about nine miles from S
Bluff. He found the frozen body of,-'
E. Sorenson, who has been missing c
from Nome since the big storm which, si
. caused so much annoyance and suf- ci
fering during the early part of Janu
ary. Sorenson, who was prospecting b
with his partner, was on his way P
home after visiting the Bluff. In the w
big storm he lost his way and evi- ir
dently wandered until he was over- tl
come. li
The body will be taken to Bluff and j ci
an Inquest held. There is little doubt ni
that the verdict will be “death due
to exposure."

ICH SHALLOW GROUND
STRUCK AT NOAAE
Although little information has been
Iven out. inside information is to the
ffect that Maus & Co., working on
exter creek, in the Nome district,
tve located rich pay. The details
I
' the strike have been kept quiet, j.
< the prospectors fear litigation, but j
om a reliable source It is learned j
lat they have three feet of pay that i
ill average 25 cents to the pan. The1
»y is found within five feet of the
'ass roots, so that it is easy ground
> ork.
'.oe strike is within a short distance
’ Kathleen creek, where a rich strike [
as made last winter. There is much ,
-ospectlng in progress in the dis
ict now, and others have hopes of
nding the same pay.
Maus & Co. have sunk three holes
hundred feet apart, and have pay in
1 of them.

linns ILL;
To many people in Fairbanks the
lk of antimony production has been
le big joke, and it probably will be
surprise to them to learn that dur
g the next six. months the Tanana
illey will probably produce one- -
larter of all the antimony needed
the United States and Canada for
whole year, or half the amount
?eded for the period during which it
being produceck According to the
ining and Engineering World, the
ital consumption of antimony in the
nited States and Canadu is from 600
i 700 tons per month.
The antimony actually consumed in
ic United States is only about 50
ar cent as great as it was prior to
le war, and in normal times, as it is
at being used except in cases of ab- ,
)!ute necessity owing to the high
rice demanded for the metal.
From the figures of the Mining and .
ngineering World, the consumption
fixed at from 600 to 700 tons montli
Assuming that it is 650 tons every
ilrty days, the total consumption for
year would be 7,800 tons.
In the Fairbanks district during the ;
ext six months, according to con
•acts for shipments, and estimates
f operators, the production will be
lose to 4,000 tons of ore. It may be
little more or a little less. This ore
ill run on an average better than ,
J per cent pure antimony, so that the
)tal production of the metal will be
illy- 2,000 tons for the season, or
lore than one-fourth the total amount
eeded in the United States and
anada.
According to the Mining and Engi
eering World, no antimony is com
lg from Europe, from the market
hich formerly supplied the world
rior to the outbreak of the war.
7hat antimony ore is not furnished
■om the mines in this country comes
■om Japan and China, but the ore
om these far eastern countries is
lid to be not as good as that of the
nited States.
