"The 'most' important part of iiiv iri.' lu Loudon is ir. cm- nection with placer ��� d.iA.ns-on Mc- ,, Kec creek.

"There has been no quartz development in 'Atlin except what we "have done, and I-doubt if theie will e unlil'transportation facilities are . ANOTHER STORY. The Nimrod syndicate, at .the head of which is Lord Flamilton, has been one of the few firms that- have spent any large amount of money in Atlin this summer in the matter of quartz properties of the country. Of course, there .have been ��-e,;end companies that have put in.hydraulic plants and worked ihev.i with varir.g, success, but the managers of the Lord Hamilton syndicate put in a five stamp .'mill on quartz proposition and run it all summer. Tins mill was an experiment merely.andafisueh,its showing does not appear, to have been 'en- enraging. While erectedjbn the AiracoucUi * property it has been .dn'ic.t exclusively run this summer on 01 e from Monroe .'mountain." They -'have worked these claims to some-extent and have run. through their five stamp mill about. 300 tons. It is now reported from Atlin that the results, weie not satisfactory, or sufficiently so for the. managers. They failed tb l.vke up 'the bend, h'itteen days' grace was given them. They failed then to' come up with the cash. So the originel owners have the benefit of a tunnel of 135 feet and other large improvements on the property.���Alaskan.

Among -the many gold-bearing creeks in Atlin district, McKee takes a very prominent position on' account of, the la'rg; amount of gold it has already produced, and its immensely enhanced possibilities in the near future, whin hydraulic ing, will have full sway and its,golden gravels" be washed wholesale. Payable gold wan first, found on this creek"by A. .McKee in October. 1898.. At this rime "nearly all the transient population had go;"* out for the wintir, but those left behind, .by. the potent power of proxies, soon had all the new diggius staked out. Extended work in 1899 pr. ved the creek and benches to be good payers/and, whilst the amount of gold won cannot be positively stated, the'fact that all hands secured layovers for the winter and resumed work this summer, "is .sufficient guarantee that it answered expectations. --Early this spring Messrs. Partridge snd Adams, acting as agents fe'r-ia Loudon Company, secured a dredging lease .withtwo miles 'froui- age on the lake, and running back, with'the "creek nearly in the centre, to claim ^4 below discover}* ��� the beginning of the Laugley creek claims. They also, secured t.vo leases en the N.W. side, of 80 acres each, with a frontage of 3,000 feel on the creek, running up to aud adjoining S. W. line of McKce's discovery claim. These leases have all been granted to the locators and since purchased outiight from them by Mr. C. Christopher. On or about Sept. 1st, this gentleman, for self, and with power of attorney for three others, located four 80- acre raining leases, two , on eac'* sidfe and adjoining discovery claim on the upper side. These.cover everything righl down to the 100-foot placer locations on lhe creek. At the same time x wa'-er righl lor 1,- 000 inches, of water, to be taken from below the junction of Spruce and Eldorado creeks, was applied for, and being the first application, will undoubtedly be granted. This gives Mr. Christopher sole control of all possible hydraulic work on McKee, as 1,000 inches will just about cover the available supply of water in summer, and 1-csides, the possession of the London dredging lease below, gives him the only possible dumping ground for debris. The plant, which is a very large one, i3 already ou the -Atlin wharf, complete, aud we understand a contract has been made with the Atlin Lake Lumb.-r Company for at least 250,000 [cct of lumber, which is to be cut this fall and de livered on the bank of the lake, -at the mouth of the creek, before ice clones navigation. From this position it will be sledded tb flume line. The survy for the flume line and pipe line is now being made by Mr. Wilkinson, ' D. L. S. ' When Lhis is compleied, a" large force of men will be put on to grade a bed for the flume before the ground freezes, so that in the'spring there' will be only the snow to shovel out, ard <*lhe" flume can be placed'quick- ' ly in position. By this plan active hydrauliciug will be commenced as socn as the1 frost is out of the > ground i:. lhe early 'summer- and McKee creek will probably take the, proud position of the banner producer of the district.' ' ��� Too much credit cannot be given to-Mr. C. Christopher for'his ��� energy, skill and foresight in this,- as in all the other mining enterprises in which he has had such a leading hand in the camp. Mr.' Christopher has' been the mean* ��� ol" bringing in more outside money1 for development purposes than'any one, and has been uniformly sue-, cessful iu all .his undertakings,, which is only another way of saying thai he goes about them iu proper business shape. We learn that another party has bonded about 73 claims on the creek with a view to hydrauliciug them next'summer. ' The'inteiiti m is an entirely laudable one, but if the claims of Mr. Christopher's Company to the control of water and dumping ground be valid, as we have no reason to doubt, then the successful running of a hydraulic mine without these necessary adjuncts will solve a problem which has been unsolvable hitherlo.
