TAKES OPTIONS ON HUGE ANTI
MONY VEIN IN KANTISHNA
REGION, IN INTERIOR
Is One of Rare Alloys Found
Goes To Kellogg, Idaho, to Settle
With Partner and Return to
the Northland.
Pete Anderson, known thruout Al
aska as “Sourdough-Pete” arrived in
Seward on Saturday night’s train
on the first stretch of his journey
to the States. Mr. Anderson was
lessee of the Skagway House here
having recently given up the prop
erty in order to lend to his many
mining properties in the Interior. For
the past two months he has made
his headquarters in Nenana, his old
* stamping grounds. He has prospect
■ ed and traveled thru every camp
' from Ketchikan to Nome and has
- j become practical in that particular
- line.
Before coming to Alaska, Mr. An
■ derson settled in the little town o!
i Kellogg, Idaho, in the Couer d’ Alene
- range and prospected with his part
. ner, a Dr. T. R. Mason, who is now
■ residing in Kellogg. About two
, months ago, Mr. Anderson received
the gladsome news that the claims
* that he and his partner staked in
i the early Idaho days proved fruit*
► ful and that a stake beyond his
• dreams was disclosed. It is the in
• tention of Mr. Anderson to go south
i to meet his old-time partner and set
■ tie the vast holdings which have
been kept in safety these many years
, without his knowledge. In speaking
■ of the surprise Mr. Anderson ex
claimed, “that’s a partner!’’
Upon his recent trip into the In
terior, Mr. Anderson took options on
a rare metal, antimony, w-hich ap
pears very scarce in Alaska in tire
quantity in which his claims dis
close. The precious metal is used
for divers purposes, mainly for med
icinal purposes, gun-powder, used to
harden printers types and an alloy of
babbit. The vein, which is exposed,
reveals it 20 feet wide, 30 feet deep
and approximately 600 feet long and
he is confident that he has found the
real thing. The group of claims in
which the antimony is found is called
the Stampede Group and is owned
by Interior men. To gain access to
Railroad station at Lignite and
thence across the Toklat river which
is a branch of the Kantishna.
In referring back to his trip into
the Couer d’ Alene district, Mr. An
, derson said that he will take a trip
into his old holdings, the Riverside
Claims which is located on the north
fork of the Couer d’ Alene river.
Kellogg is the nearest station.
It is Mr. Anderson’s intention to
come back, as he is gripped with
the claws of the North. The Outside
he said, which he hasn’t seen for
a number of years, holds nothing for
him. The North has wonderful pros
pects, but as money appears to be
the main cog of the wheel of de
velopment, he will interest men of
Idaho into his recent venture which
he claims to be as sure as a shell
game for those operating it. That
he is a prospector, and knows his
stuff in the mining game from A to
Z is unquestionable and he says when
he comes back he will have the cash
and start the new-found ball a-rolling
in the Kantishna.
Mr. Anderson expects to sail from
Seattle the latter part of October
and upon reaching the interior will
procure a team of huskies and mush
into his property when the North
ern Lights flicker silently into the
dawn of winter.
While in town he is a guest at the
Hotel Seward.
Mrs. J. H. Chovin and daughter ar
rived in Seward on the Yukon depart
ing yesterday morning for Anchorage
where Mr. Chovin is engaged in the

The Downey brothers and family,
together with Tom Babcock, and a
boat load of material and supplies,
left port Saturday afternoon for the
Nuka Bay quartz field where they will
erect an Ellis ball mill on their prop
erty.
