A

was
this

fear
were
expressed
whether
she
would

She
is

lying
at

of
26

27
degrees,
which
is
only
about
half
the
list
she
formerly
had.
She
is
being
patched
and
is
much
more
buoyant
ihan
she
has
been
and
therefore
more
likely
to
be
damaged
by
heavy

at
the
time

Additional

is
being
done
today,
temporary

bottom

pumps
are
being

she
will

that
it
is
expected
she
will
come
off
easily
tomorrow
if
the
gale
does
not
damage
her

The
plan
is
for
the

to
pull

then

DUTHIE
PLE
ASED
WITH
PROGRESS
AT

AND
MILL
ON
HUDSON
BAY
Completing
a
week
of
examination
at
hi
mining
property
near
Smithers.
J.
F
Duthle
came
down
from
the
Hudson
Bay
Meuntaln
mine
that
bears
his
name
on
Monday
night
and
left
tor
Seattle,
nays
the
Interior
News.
Before
stepping
on
the
train
Mr.
Duthle
volunteered
his
gratification
over
the
progress
be
ing
made
at
the
mine
and
mill
In
the
face
of
obstabies
that
have
been
ex
ceptionally
persistent.
In
all
the
workings
the
ere
bodies
continue
to
maintain
or
Increase
strength
and
the
values
are
maintained
In
the
ore.
Conditions
around
the
mill
are
now
getting
back
to
normal
following
the
ecer.t
frecass-up.
The
discouragement
this
department
consists
of
continued
dilay
tn
the
arrival
of
the
elevator
con
nected
with
the
new
rolls
added
to
the
plant.
Shortly
after
the
mill
was
sent
Into
cperatkm
It
was
found
that
the
crushing
machinery
was
not
sufficiently
complete
to
handle
the
ore
economically
and
It
tas
decided
to
Install
additional
rolls.
These
have
been
on
hand
for
some
time,
but
the
elevator
to
convey
the
ore
to
the
rolls
has
not
yet
arrived
and
two
weeks
of
tracing
baa
failed
to
locate
the
car
on
any
of
the
railroads.
Apart
from
this,
Mr.
Duthle
said
he
had
every
reason
to
feel
well
satisfied
with
-the
mine's
production
and
with
the
results
of
