A mass meeting of citizens was "called last .Saturday evening nt whicli a good representation of commercial and mining- interests was present. The meeting was called to'order by the Chairman, Mr. J. H.Brownlee, who asked Mr. A. C. Hirschfeld to explain to the audience the purpose., for which the the meeting was assembled. Mr. Hirschfeld, in a few well chosen and pointed remarks suggested the advisibility of devising a plan by which reliable information concerning the camp, its progress and development might be regularly transmitted loathe outside press, with the object of keeping, Atliii c ������� ��� ;;>��� d . ������������'-������ �� ��� anil its' great" mining- possibilities regularly before the public. Such a means was now within our reach by the advent of the Dominion Telegraph line. He proposed that a certain number of words, say 300, should be sent out every week for the next four months, and he estimated that tiie cost, including telegraph toll.s and compilation, would not exceed $125 for the time suggested. Mr. Stables, M.L.A., Mr. J. A. b'raser, President of the Hoard of Trade, Messis. Grime, Drs. Young and Cameron, Regan, Myers, and man\- others spoke to the point and all heartily concurred iu the proffered suggestion, each expressing a willingness to assist in defraying tlie expense when - called upon if Mr. Hirschfeld\s proposition was put into execution. ''Dr. Young moved as a resolution that "In the sense of this mass meeting, the proposal as made by Mr. Hirschfeld is worthy of the support of the citizens of the district, and that steps should at once be taken to put the proposal into execution; and, further, that the the Atlin District Hoard of Trade lie asked to take the matter up and instruct its'Sccietary to solicit subscriptions toward-covering the contemplated expense." The ��� resolution, 'being duly .seconded, was unaiidouslv carried and the nieet- sion of the 111 filler was'marie by several ofthe member*. A motion, was carried accepting Mr. Jlirsch- feid's proposal to send outside news of the, camp, not less than i2cw words a month, by wire, and thar the Secretary prepare subscription lists', these to be .placed in all tlie- places of business .in Allin and Discovery, and tliat ' each member of the Board be- handed a copy, so that .every one having interests in the camp might lie approached. A. censorial committee was appointed, the members of which represent the mining, mercantile and financial interests of the camp, and its duty is the supervision and approval of all despatches, thus practically guaranteeing the, veracity of tlie loci! in formation transmitted to the,outside press. Another mailer of public importance dealt with by tlie Hoard was ilic passing of a resolution declaring the Annual General Meeting, to be held January cjtli next, to be open to the public.

It i.s stated that unless the Government is willing to agree to a proposition not to guarantee char- tars t;i any contemplated competing lines of railway tlie company wilf endeavor to uphold charges by making tariff increases cm the American end of the road from Skagway lo the Summit, so that on the total haul, a rate equal to that now ii: force will be the result.

On behalf of our friends in Discovery, it might be well to sla'.e that the Constitution of the Board provides for two representatives on the Council, ami one for every ten members. It will be to the interest of the mining community that the miners of Discovery see to it that applications be at once sent iid' The Government's Action re Railroad Rates. Vancouver Liberals Indignant ��� Fatal Accident, on tho C.P.R. Yukon Gold Rich in Platinum Prior Relinquishes Polities. Following up the information contained in the despatch from Vancouver-audit the discovery of large amounts of platinum associated with Yukon gold, the extract from a recent issue of the En- ginkkring &��� Mixing Journal should prove of interest to' our readers : "Nickel, chromium and platinum' are needed in the United States. The conditions ��'of occurrence are being investigated more carefully than at any recent time. It chances that all three metals are sought in the same rocks���altered eruptives rich in magnesium. No less than four new sources of nickel have been recorded in the the last few mouths, and in one��� in Nevada���nickel, platinum and copper are all reported, making profitable extraction possible with only a small percentage of nickel. Chromium ores require, on the other hand, 50 per cent or more of chromic oxide to make the ore profitable for bichromate manufacture. The zealous search for platinum in tiie last three years has revealed traces ��� of it in most unexpected quarters, such as eastern Pennsylvania, and in North Carolina as a mineral curiosity. It has been found in hundreds of placer gold mines in British Columbia, Oregon and California, iu sufficient quantities to place the United States above South America as a source for this precious metal and probably next to Russia���if the gold miner can be induced to abat.don his prejudice for the yellow metal and save the platinum with1 it. This does :.ot seem difficult, especially with the latter equal to gold in price; but nevertheless great quantities of platinum aiid its allied metals, osmium and iridium, have 'been thrown away." It ' has been shown by assays made by the Geological Department A special meeting of the Council ofthe Board of Trade was held in the Court Mouse on Tuesday cven: ing to discuss ways unci means iu connection with freight rates and more especially lo devise a plan of endorsing the 'Dominion Government's policy as again:','. lhc Whiio Pass K: Vuko'.i Railroad. The full Council wa* pre-ent and a committee of three was appointed lo draft a telegram and letter to the Mon. A. G. Blair. Minister of Railways and Canals, in connection with the matter. The following telegram has been handed to the telegraph company for transmission as soon as the wire is open again : . "The Mon. A. G. Blair, Minister of Railways & Canals, Ottawa, Can. .

A meeting of the lease-holders ol the Race Horse and Eealher groups was held in tlie office of Brownlee & Lowry ou Saturday last. A very' encouraging letter was received from Mr. O. T. Switzer, written from the east, staling that arrangements had been _ completed by him and that he was about to leave for San Francisco for ��� the purpose of having a dredge built. ��� It is hoped this dredge will be constructed and be ready for shipment by the opening of navigation. During the absence of Mr. J. H. Brownlee, the Trustee, in Seattle, Mr. PI. E. Canovan was appointed Secretary. Shortly after the meeting adjourned a telegram was received from San Francisco "from Mr. Switzer, stating that he was making very favorable progress. It-is understood that the Risdon Iron Works, of San Francisco, will secure, the contract for the dredge, which is calculated to weigh 180 tons and which will have all the latest improvements. Within the last lew days a deal lias been ' consummated whereby a company, promoted by Mr. John Caplice, of Butte, Montana, will 0[>- erale the Laverdiere copper.property on Copper island. The company, which is a strong one, is made up of Montana and Utah capital, and 'proniinaut among the shareholders is the estate of Marcus Daly. .Such a combination, with lots of money behind them, will be an. immense acquisition in showing up the possibilities of the camp. It is understood that work will very soon be commenced to convert this most promising prospect into a shipping mine. Telegraphic Brevities. ...., Winnipeg, Dec. 6th���Dean O'- Meara died here today.
