Claims covering the best part of these vast deposits have been filed by miners employed by Thomas Magon. The manager of the Apollo gold mines at Unga says the veins uncovered to date are four and a half, five and nine feet thick, comprising excellent lignite and bituminous coals. In the spring diamond drills will be employed to determine the depth and continuity of the deposits and development will commence on a large scale.

The veins are situated near tidewater and only five miles distant is a sheltered harbor where steamers or sailing vessels can load In safety. The deposits are so large as to make certain a permanent supply for Alaskan towns. This alone will affect the Pacific coast coal supply. charge by Mitchell and Foster and brought to REMSEN ST.

In response to frequent complaints made to Captain Short of the Bedford avenue sta: tlon a raid was made last night on the barber shop conducted by John Browski, at 666 Driggs avenue. Browski has a pool table in the rear of ths barber ship. Mothers claimed that the proprietor, in spite' of their protests, allowed their young sons to play until late at night. A game was in progress when Captain Short reached the place.

The prisoners gave their names as John Browski, 30 years old, proprietor; John Kellar, Charles Barth, Charles Letscher, Robert Rampolo, Matthew Aslls kizer, Peter Blank, George Caldewly, Robert Frazer, Frank Gllligan, Adolph Zink and Benjamin Cummings.

Foster of the Ralph avenue station early yesterday morning arrested Mabel White, colored, 24 years old, of 148 "West Thirty gecond street, Manhattan, who the police believe was an accomplice to the larceny of $1,800 from the person of George Meyer 269 Monroe street, this borough. The rob bery took place on Friday morning. The only clew that the police received of the woman who stole the money was the descriptions which the detectives received from Meyer. The woman under arrest and another woman, whom the police are looking for, are said by the Manhattan detectives to be two of the cleverest women thieves on the streets of Manhattan. Meyer, who was robbed of the money, is a race track man and is well known among the fraternity of the turf.

He is in the habit, it is said, of. carrying large sums of "money with him. Early on Friday morning he entered the Ralph avenue station house and reported that he had been robbed by a colored woman of $1,800. Meyer told the police that he had the money in a small wallet In his trousers pocket and that in some way the wallet had been taken from hlB pocket, the money extracted and the wallet placed back in the pockgt. Meyer stated that ho was standing at the corner of Gates and Patchen avenues about 3 o'clock In the morning and that he was approached by two colored women.

He accompanied one ol them down Patchen avenue toward Lexington avenue. The woman then left him, but she had not been gone long when he; discovered that the money was missing. He ran In the direction the woman went for several blocks, but sho and her compan ion had disappeared. At first Meyer told the police that he was sure he had the money at the time he mot the women, for he claimed that he had counted it before leaving the house. He said there were sixteen one hundred dollar bills, four fifty dollar bills.

Upon closer questioning by the detectives, because of some light contradictions in his statement, Meyer 'finally admitted that he told an untruth about the' time he last counted the money and said that it was a week ago that he counted it. He explainedf however, that the reason he made the first statement was that he was afraid that the police wpuld not take any interest in his case if fie admitted that it was a week sinco he counted tho money. In all his other statements Meyer told a straight 'story. Mitchell and Foster visited all tho negn5 settlements In the vicinity of tho precinct, but wore unable to find any clew that would warrant them In nmking an ariost. On returning to the station house after a fruitless search the detectives decided that the women were strangors to Brooklyn and so they vis tho tenderloin station house.

Ono of tho men at the Manhattan precinct, when he heard tho description of tho women, told the detectives that ho know of two colored women in the district who were looked upon MM experts In thefts of tho kind of which Senator Teller Thinks We "Will Ultimately Return to the Bimetallic System.
