John Enlund. who has the contrac
— for cutting 2,000.000 feet of lumbe
= for the Alaska Engineering Commls
sion, reports that he has completed :
sawmill and other buildings at Pori
age Bay and that approimately 300,00
feet of lumber has been cut. The mil
building is 36 feet wide and 128 fee
long, covered with sheet Iron and sup
plied with a water power of force sul
flcient to throw a stream of wale
seventy feet high. The mill has i
capacity of 30,000 feet daily.
The building which is being use<
as living rooms for the men, and it
which Mr. and Mrs. Enlund have prl
vate quarters is 18 feet wide and 101
feet long.
The mill Is located on a bay oi
the south side of Portage bay abou
six miles from the tract reserved b;
the government at the head of Port
nno v Tho email ho V la (1 hnilf r»n<
r ”
and one-half miles long and afford]
shelter from all wind storms. Thi
shores of the bay are heavily coverei
$ with splendid sawmill timber am
Mr. Enlund reports that all the logi
used in cutting the 300,000 feet o
lumber were towed to the mill b;
£ row boats, the services of the launcl
not being required. He believes tha
the mill, located on deep water when
i-i any steamer can land, and in thi
midst of heavy timber sufficient t<
& keep the mill busy for several years
can cut and deliver lumber at any o
Sa the Alaskan coast towns at a prie<
£3 which will compete with lumbe
brought from the outside.

I GOOO STRIKE IN ARIZONA
Our former townmans, George A. !
Shea, of Kingman, Arizona, has dis
covered high grade ore on the Ohio
group of claims, sixteen miles from
where he is now living. Samples as
sayed are reported to contain telluri
um in quantity. Several shallow cuts
1 have been opened on the property and
r a shaft is now- being sunk on the vein.
Samples from this shaft, which is but
1 eighteen feet deep, show values of
‘ from $170 to $1884 per ton. The vein
• is composed of stringers of a highly
1 oxidized quartz, several of which con
f tain diseminated specks of gold and
' silver tellurides. The width of the
' vein has not yet been determined. }

1 177 MEN ON COMMISSION 4
PAYROLL AT SEWARD 4
i — !
i Accurate information secured at the 4
- offices of the Alaskan engineering 4
• commission shows that a force of 112 J
men are employed on actual construe- 1
' tlon work out of Seward. This force 1
; will be increased by a gang of bridge 4
' carpenters, who will be stationed at j
• Mile 52 to repair trestles In the section 4
! between Mile 45 and Placer river. This 4
1 will bring the construction and 4
' repair force to 122 men. 4
I In addition the commission has in *
1 Seward an office force, a miscellaneous 4
1 crew, men repairing the office build- 1
ing, a force erecting residences in the J
terminal tract, a crew on the wharf 1
and transportation men looking after 1

NOT ENOUGH VESSELS TO
HANDLE ORE SHIPMENTS .
, _ _ |
The bunkers at the Three-Men min- •:
ing Company's property. Landloek Bay •:
are filled to capacity and that ore is :j
3 piled up in every available space
. around the works, owing to no steam- •:
ers being available for transporting :
the ore to the smelter.
The loss of the Alaska Steamship :
^ company's big freighter Edith, and :
the Admiral Watson of the Admiral i
s Line, has proved a serious handicap •
i to the shippers of copper ores from ;
B the Southwestern Alaska coast mines, j
and the announcement that the Alaska :
s Steamship company has purchased :
e two big freighters to operate in these ^
s waters is good news to the mine own
ers, who will suffer loss if their mines
[j are closed down for a time.
