Mines to Work by Machinery at Falls Creek Mines
Machinery and a stamp will be installed at Falls Creek mines as soon as development shows the property’s potential. Early assays suggest richer ore, with tests indicating a bonanza. Charles D. Lane, expert assayer, confirms the ore grade is higher than expected and development will continue into spring with Allen likely to become superintendent.

Fisk Jury Charges Murder in Alaska Inquest
A coroner's jury in Seldovia returned a verdict charging James Fisk's partner John M. Murray with murder after Fisk's skeleton was found at Halibut Bay. New cabin near the old one, Fisk's belongings inside, and Murray's property in the old cabin suggest a quarrel. Blood evidence on a razor and clothing implies external contamination. The report notes a placer miner search for platinum and a wheat price decline in Chicago.
