IT COPPER FIND MADE IN ALAS Indications That Klondike and Nome Placers Will Be Laid in Shade. VERY EASY -TO BE MlrfED lcdgcs on Jfabesca, White and Cop per IUvcrs Extend for a Hun dred Miles and'tlie Ore Is Very Rich. TAtOOMA. IVask.. Sept. 19. (Special.) H mm j- ara.tnhar. the noted copper mln img expert, who arrived from the North Jilawday. on the stoainer Victoria, and wt 6 aow a guest at the Donnelly Hotel, swtegs news that he has dlsoovered at the headwaters of the Kabesca. White and Cmftfr Rivers. Alaska, what he believes to the world's greatest copper district. Coper to there so abundant, he says, that St enn he mined and transported by rail, 3W mlloe to Vajdez, and smelted at a probable cost of 6 or t cents a pound, thereby oHtttns In two the present aver age roat of copor jtroduction. Mining men. already aware of Mr. Bratnoher's discovery, declare that It out--wetghs in importance the discovery of the Klondike and Nome ptaccr districts. So Important is it that Mr. Bratnober and hi associates wilt vigorously push Afdonntent work and within two years fcr expect to be producing dally 2000 to SMt tons of copper ore running 10 to SO per cnt In metallic copper. When this Is accomplished the Industry will be only started. Havcmcycrs Behind Railroad. In connection with this development John Roeene and associates will push the handing of the Northwestern &. Copper RIw Railroad, with the object of build tog It to the Nabesoa copper district with in three years. Roseae's railroad will nrst touch the Bonanza group of copper mines owned by the Havemeyers, the New Twk sugar refiners, who are be ttered to he among the Eastern moneyed men who are backing Hosene in his rail road proecL. Two years ago representatives of the Havener-or stated that if necossary they tvottld build their own railroad to develop the Bonanza group. Rosene's first section of mllea from Valdez is now being batK. Contracts will probably be let this week for an immense amount of railroad material with which to push construction work through Copper River Valley next Bratnober says he found the Tanana River to he a glacial stream with half a eoaen channels and everywhere very shallow. In many places on the upper reaches it spreads out four or five miles. Twtr expert copper miners with 40 tons of provtakms were left on Nabesca Creek with Instructions to explore the region thoroughly for the next two years. Ledges for a Hundred Miles. The copper of the Nabesna and White Rivers. Mr. Bratnober says, is found In amtgatotd. or greenstone formation, with ledges extending eastward 100 miles from Copper River. Mr. Bratnober traced tbeee ledges aa far as Mount Atyati. a very high mountain in the Alaskan Range, where the greenstone formation to lost under the glaciers of that moun tain and Mount St. Ellas. The ore Is of the same character as Lake Superior copper ores. Nabesna cop per is found in bands of greenstone in shot-like shape, often carrying 10 to 30 per cent of metallic copper. There is also he says much copper on the White River where it Is In a slab-like shape, and pieces were found running from two to four feet in width and two Inches thick. These slabs lay in seas in the greenstone, making the most wonderful surface showing Mr. Bratnober has ever een in this or foreign countries. Big: Nuggets of Copper. Sight miles further up White River cop per occurs in the same formations, nug-Ret-chape. the nuggets running from a half onnce to two ounces. The formation, Mr. Bratnober says, is about 500 feet wide, with vast quantities of copper ly ing at the foot of the hills, where the greenstone has become decomposed and the capper ore has washed down In ra vines below. The gravel Is full of native copper, which lies on the surface in plain view. Mr. Bratnober says that one year's vig orous development work, will develop cop per mines which can .produce 2000 to 3000 tons of ore per day. The ore will be hauled by railroad to Valdez and reduced there by smelters. The construction of the railroad, he declares, will quickly make it the largest copper-producing dis trict the world, the surface showing undoubtedly the most favorable that has ever been discovered. The copper veins on Nabesna River are three to eight feet wide and seem very continuous. Mr. Bratnober believes that both smelters and refiners will be built at VnWoE within a few years, making that the largest ' city on the Alaskan coast. TAKING THE TREATY HOI JAPANESE MISSION SAILS FROM SEATTLE TODAY. Hurrying to Get It Ratified Before , Diet Meets Hague Decision Goes Also. SEATTLE. Sept. 19. (Special.) The rec ords of the Japanese peace envoys were completed here this afternoon, and will be carried to Tokk under the direction of Y. Yamaza, director of political affairs in the Foreign Office. S. Ishulji, one of the secretaries, accompanied the party as far as Seattle to assist in transcribing the notes of the conference. The party sails for Japan on the Dakota tomorrow. Mr. Yamaza has charge of the bureau which handles all the correspondence of Japan with her Consuls and much of that with her Ministers abroad. While tho party will not confirm the statement. It Is unofficially declared that Yamaza has In his possession the draft of the. treaty Itself, which the Japanese Emperor will sign and subsequently forward to St. Pe tersburg through American diplomats at Teklo and tue Russian capital. K. Ochala. who is returning with the party, bears a report of the tribunal at The Hague, at which was settled the dls agreement over the taxation of buildings Sa the foreign settlements at the five treaty ports. He and M- Adachl, also with the party, were interpreters for Baron Komura. The dispute over taxation grows out of the treaty of four or five years ago. wherein Japan was given control of all civil and criminal cases, consular courts were abolished, and it was specified im movable property in the foreign settle ments would not be taxed. Japan wanted to tax houses, and the foreign powers ob jected. The tribunal at The Hague de cided against Japan, and that country yielded. The Japanese Diet meets late in Novem ber, and the reports of the two confer ences now being borne to the Japanese Emperor will be explained to that body. Under the Japanese constitution, the Em peror has sole authority to make war and ratify treaties, but he will explain dotalls to the law-making body. This is the rea son the party started home, even though the notes of the Portsmouth conference were as yet Incompleted. The work was finally completed here today, and Mr Ishuijl will return to rejoin Baron Ko--mura. JAPAN SETTLES DOWN AGAIN Capital Returns to Banks and Is Eager for Investment. TOKIO. Sept. 19. Despite the fact that the ebullition of popular dissatisfaction over the peace arrangements continues unabated, there are indications that the business contingent is slowly soboring down. The capital Intended for new enter prises, following the sucessful conclusion of the treaty of peace. Is gradually coming into the banks as deposits In amounts which are likely to lower the rate of In terest. The profound disappointment which has prevailed has at least proved a benefit to the extent of saving the people from any feverish Intoxication, resulting in bubble enterprises, like those which accompan ied the close of the war with China. The moneyed class has resumed the attitude of cautious frugality which guided its transactions during the war; the financial outlook is not gloomy and capital is im patiently awaiting solid investments.

ROOSEVELT ISSUED CALL All Powers Accepted, hut Russia Pre ferred Delay Till After JVar Was Ended Hague Bureau Takes Next Step. WASHINGTON, Sept. 19. It is not b'olieved in Washington that the pro- j posed second International peace con- 1 of drawing up an international arbitration ference at The Hague will be held this ' treaty and also favoring periodical con--i.x,- Tr i rinuhraH .isn that tht ! KTessis for the discussion of the questions second conference will be convened at j the call of the Emperor of Russia, as has been Indicated in dispatches from St. Petersburg;. It Is assumed that what has happened in St. Petersburg is that the Russian Government, hav ing caused the postponement of tho second conference on account of war. Is now about to notify the administra tive council that it is now willing to proceed to the second conference callod by President Rdosevelt. The State Department so far has not yet boon Informed of this decision, but It Is disposed to aocopt the St. Peters burg advices as conclusive on that point. The next step In order if the normal course Is followed Is a definite ac ceptance by the powers of an invita tion naming a specific date for the conference, and this probably will contain reservations by most of the powors with the purpose of securing limitations of the programme of topics to be considered. This may naturally be expected to consume many weeks, and porhaps months, so it 1b Improb able that the second conference at The Hague will meet before the next cal endar year. Call From Hague Bureau. It stem to the President that the high task undertaken in seeking to bring about an agree ment of the powers to meet in a second peace confer nee Is virtually accomplished, so far a It appropriate fr him to act, and tbat with the geaeral acceptance of bis invitation in principle the future conduct of the affair may fitly fottew its normal channels. To this end it is- irapftefted that the further and neces sary interchange of views between the sig natories of the acts of 1E&9 be effected through i the International bureau under the control of j the permanent administrative council of The Hague. t Those words of tho late John Hay, writ ten December 16 last, as Instruction to the j representatives of the United States to ! the Governments signatory to Tho Hague 1 Convention, embody tho last official ac tion of this Government looking to a re- 4 convening of The Hague Conference. Ac cording to the records of the State De- 1 partment, on October 21. l&M. Secretary ' Hay. by direction of the President, in- ! fixing no date and suggesting an ex change of views as to the subjects to be considered. It was distinctly stated that the invitation was tentative. These ex changes soon followed, and on December 16 of the same year Secretary Hay wrote: AH Powers Accepted. The replKa so far received Indicate tbat the proposition has been received with general fa vor. 2fo dissent has found expression. ... The replies of Japan and Russia conveyed in like terms a friendly recognition of the spirit and purpose of the Invitation, but on the part of Russia the reply waa accompanied by the statement that. In the existing condlU6n of thing in the Far East. It would not be prac ticable for the- -Imperial gov cram tat, at this CRUISER FALKE WILL BE WELL ENTERTAINED IN PORTLAND moment, to take part in such a conference. Therefore the President turned over to the administrative council the conduct of the further negotiations necessary to se cure an enunciation of the views of the respective powers to clear the way for the recovering of the conference. It is pointed out that in doing this the President particularly looked to the gov ernment of The Netherlands "to Issue the call for the second conference, and it is the present understanding that this will be done."
