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.

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

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."
