EXPEDITION DISCOVERS VAST COPPERDEPOSITS

Stefansson Explorations in Tar North Reveal Ore in Large Quantity —Coal in Arctic.

SEATTLE, Waah., Sept. 13.—The seven members of the party of Dr. Rudolph Manderson, comander of the southern branch of the Stefansson Canadian expedition Into the far north, will leave Seattle, where they arrived yesterday, for Ottawa, in a few days to make reports to the Canadian government. They will report, Dr. Anderson said, many interesting discoveries, including finding of great quantities of copper, new species of small mammals and perhaps new species of flowers. Stefansson, it was reported, was belived to be continuing his explorations north of Prince Patrick island.

Discussing today the work of the party, Dr. Anderson safld: "We were instructed to survey the copper deposits already known and seek new ones. Every explorer from the earliest times had noted that the Eskimos east of the Mackenzie used knives, spearheads and other weapons end utensils hammered from copper. We found on Coronation gulf and Bathurst inlet vast deposits of copper of low grade. Geologist O'Neill took ,.in&ny samples of rock, which will be assayed. He also made many esti7 mates of the area of ore in sight. This information is for the Canadian government and not to be published by us.

Find Coal In Arctic.

"Our headquarters were on the south *j fid® of Dolphin and Union straits, vhlch run out of the west end of the

Coronation gulf. We took from our vessels enough lumber to build a house. Along the beaches we found nearly enough small driftwood to keep us in fuel, but we alsQ used coal that we took north with us. There Is workable coal within ten miles of Franklin bay, on the Arctic. "The Eskimos east of the Mackenzie are abandoning their copper and stone weapons and buying guns whenever they get a chance. Lately the

Eskimos and Indians have been meeting at Great Bear lake and trading and they have found this intercourse highly' profitable to both sides, although formerly the Eskimos and the Indians avoided one another. The Indians exchange ammunition, guns and other goods for fox skins and musk ox hides. "The expedition we regarded as having accomplished Its purpose."

«®ft a wreck and alone. Whiskey was the cause of it all. I was kicked around i from one place to another. Drunk practically all the time. All I wanted or cared for was whiskey, and I had reached that point where 1 would not stop drinking of my own accord.

A friend of former days wrote my sister, whose bome was in Germany, telling her of my pitiful condition. She consulted a famous chemist. He gave ner the prescription, a secret formula, 5°?

WILL KEEP PARK MENAGERIE.

Officials Make Plans to House Anlmals During Winter.

Fltzpatrlck announced Wednesday that arrangements were being made to preserve this popular feature of Collett parkland make it a permanent feature for the patrons of the park. Since the announcement was made in the Tribune several days ago that the park board would be forced to abandon the animals unless the council appropriate funds for winter quarters, many citizens have made offers to care for the animalB during the winter, Superintendent Fltzpatrlck said, and these offers -vtfill be accepted. The Havelina wild pig, a coyote and two wolves will be cared for in this manner, Superintendent Fltzpatrlck said.

As the wild nature of the foxes prohibits their transportation to a great extent, Superintendent Fltzpatrlck said park attendants would be put to work Thursday preparing a large hollow tree, at the park for their winter quarters. In the same manner MOse and Minnie Coon will be sheltered.

Shows Leniency Toward Aged Man Charged With Assault With Intent to Kill Son.

William Jones, who has been confined in the county Jail for the last thirteen weeks on a charge of assault and battery with intent to kill his son with a shotgun, was arraigned before Special Judge John Gerdink in the Circuit Court Wednesday morning and pleaded guilty to the charge. On account of his advanced age the court suspended the sentence during his good behavior.

Jones is 67 years old and, according1 to the evidence, had been having some trouble with the other members of his family with whom he shared his house in the north part of the city.

Judge Gerdink refused to allow the man to plead guilty to a charge of plain assault and battery and after a consultation he pleaded to the charge of assault and battery with intent to kill,

When the' sentence was suspended the old man jumped to his feet and embraced the judge and turned and kissed ^hls son and promised that the .court would have no further trouble fwlth him.

TERRE HAUTE TRIBUNE.

MINE COMPANY ISSUES STATEMENT CN STRIKE

Says Industrial Board Has Endorsed Use of Electric Lamp As Safety Device.

No further information was given out Wednesday morning at the offices of the district executive board of the United Mine Workers in regard to the strike involving 3,000 men called for Saturday in all mines operated by the Vandalia Coal company and officials of the "Vandalia company were unwilling to say whether any measures would be taken to prevent the walkout.

In regard to the position taken by the executive board of the mine workers, Phil Penna, secretary of the Indiana Bituminous Coal Operators' association, issued the following statement: "The statement that tne industrial department has held that the electric safety lamp would not be a tsarety device is not correct. Two members of the said department did so hold but the department through its chief advised and urged its use."

The general manager of the "Vandalia Coal company, John II. Hewitt, gave out the following statement:

Company's Statement.

"On July 21, 1916, the industrial board of Indiana rendered the following decision to us at the request of an attorney of Dugger, Ind., who had been asked for an opinion by miners living in Dugger in reference to the application of the compensation law on the miners' refusal to use the lamp. Mr. Hewitt went before the board and the following decision, he said, was mailed to him:

For seme time the industrial board has had under consideration the question of whether or hot the electric safe- •&* Pr°POsed to be installed ae the vandalia mine No. 10 is a proper safety appliance. As a result of the beard's investipation it has arrived at the conclusion that such an electric safety tw,P ?u0p?r i^'ety appliance. Section 8 of the Indiana workmen's com-

J1 S0? Pro^ides that no compen-

sat.ion shall be allowed for an injury or death due to the employe's wilfull failure or refusal to use a safety appliance or perform a duty required by statute. «HII»S ®lectvic safety lamp shall be instilled in Vandalia mine No. 10 and an employe shall meet with a personal injury due to his wilful failure or refusal to use such an appliance then the above provision of this section will apply to his case. "fedgar Perkins, chairman of the Indiana industrial board and chief Inspector of mines, and Michael Scollard, chief deputy inspector, advised Mr! Stewart and Mr. Mitch, together with the mine committee at Indianapolis, to use the lamp, starting the mine, and that if any condition of danger presented itself to the department they would take the matter up and adjust it," said Mr. Hewitt. "The Vandalia company responded that it would be willing to take up any condition of safety with tho department and the miners. }.t

Conference Held.

"About August? 29 we held a conference with the international officers of the United Mine Workers from Indianapolis, the Dugger mine committee and President Stewart and Secretary Mitch, and we agreed on a proposition for settlement, Mr. Stewart and Mr. Mitch signing it with the miners' committee, Mr. Penna for the operators' association, and A. M. Ogle, president of the Vandalia company. "Mr. Stewart and Mr. Mitch promised to go to Dugger and explain the agreement, but this they failed to do. The miners had a pieeting at Dugger with a part of the committee only, and decided not to consider the proposition in any way, with the result that Mr. Stewart has now renewed his five-day notice of strike on all the Vandalia mines."
