TARRIED LATE AT WINE Sup
PERS WHILE WHISKY WAS
BEING LANDED.
MAY LOSE THEIR POSITIONS
A SPECIAL AGENT FROM WASHING
TON TO INVESTIGATE THE
DERELICTIoN.

PORT TOWNSEND, WASH, Oct. 25.-
Official circles in Alaska are considerably
agitated over the expose recently made by
juneau paper to the effect that
the whisky ring of Puget Sound
had been successfully outwitting the
authorities, while large shipments of con-
traband liquor have been surreptitiously
introduced into the territory in direct vio-
lation of the laws and disposed of to good
advantage.
If the expose is true, and chapter from
this end of the line goes far toward con-
firning it, the plan of campaign was q
clever one and, as usual, there was
woman in the case, who blinded the eyes
of the officials while the importing was
going on under their very noses.
The story from here is that the fair
charmer, who under guise of an unconsol-
able widow went north for an indefinite
stay to hide her grief, was a woman named
Benot, beautiful, vivacious and accom-
plished, and it was not long before she
ruled over the Government set at the
northern capital.
In course of time her spirits returned,
and wine suppers and other social func-
tions in which she figured as the belle
were OF almost nightly occurrence.
This continued for some months, when
suddenly one day the widow boarded a
steamer bound back for civilization, leav-
ing many broken hearts in the north.
Then the officers learned that while they
were attending wine suppers smugglers
were arriving and departing. leaving be-
hind their cargoes of liquor. Not
single officer will admit know
ing the woman now, but they
are leaving no stone unturned to discover
the cache where the smuggled liquor is
hidden. 1t is said that word of the affair
has reached Washington and that special
agent will be sent out to select for decapi-
tation those officers who neglected their

that serious disturbances, accompanied by
extensive bloodshed, occurred at Erzering-

ascribing the Erzeringian outbreak as well
as the Akhissar disturbance to Armenians,
who, the note declares, were the aggressors
in both instances.

trouble has arisen in the district of Marash.
From the same source reports have been
Zeitoum, near Aleppo, upon four Turkish
villages, in defense of which four Turkish
