Operations Near Uyak;

The Katmai Gold Mine company,
near Uyak, has but three men at
work at the present time owing to
zero weather settling over the dis
trict, according to F. A. Cornell,
treasurer of the company, who ar
rived in Seward yesterday on the
steamer Starr. Several miners who
have been working at the mine for
months past, also arrived in town
on the vessel. I. T. Harstead, en
gineer, who recently passed thru
Seward on his way to the property,
will remain at the mine thruout the
winter. Operations will resume early
in the spring, Mr. Cornell stated.
Thus far, the work carried on, has
been purely that of preparing the
mine for operation for prior to the
advent of the present company the
property had been closed down for
many years.
The ore, while not of exceptionally
high grade, is a great deal higher
in value than average quartz and
present indications point that future
activities will be carried forward on
an increased scale.
Mr. Cornell departs tomorrow nite
for Seattle on the steamer Alas
