MARKET IS BOTR
HIGH AND ACTIVE
Good Volume of Trading
Is Reported.
A UNION PACIFIC RECORD
Stock Touches Highest Point Reached
Since the Depression of
1908.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-THE market
opened somewhat stronger and a TO II
per cent higher in most issues. Union
Pacific was l per cent and Steel pre-
ferred q per cent higher.
In the bond list Union Pacific con-
vertibles was the feature at over l per
cent gain.
Common expectation was met by the
continuance of q strong market on a
good volume of trading. The leader
was Union Pacific, which made a new
record. since the depression of 1908, by
selling up 11s per cent. ST. Paul rose a
point. but other improvements were
generally consumed TO fractions.
United States Steel preferred was
strong, and continued buying of Anal
gamated Copper carried the price up.
The local traction group was less SEN
sational than of late. Only trifiing re-
actions took place after the best prices
were reached
Government BONDS unchanged; other
bonds were strong.

Island Of sakhaHn Now Entirely in
Hands Of Observation-Disclosures
to Be Liberated.

Toxic, Aug. 5.-The island of Sakha-
lin is now entirely in Japan's hands.
Practically the entire Russian force
on the island, 20 officers and 5000 men,
surrendered with all guns, ammuni-
ton, stores, papers and military sup
plies, on July 81. A Japanese civil
government over the island will be es-
tablished at once, the officials being
on their way.
Washington, Aug. 5.-Japan will free
the thousands of Russian political
prisoners who have been exiled to SAX
hahn island. Sakhalin has been Rus
sia's penal colony for many years. On
the island there are between 10000 and
10000 convicts. Thousands of these are
there as exiles from Russia because of
political offenses. Their only crime
has been their opposition to the au-
tocracy and the bureaucracy. - T.
These exiles will be set at liberty by
Japan. All of them who desire to emf
CRATE to foreign lands will be permit
ted to do so. The convicts who en-,
listed as volunteers in the Russian mil
'itia will, of course, be treated as pris-
oners of war. These provisions will
apply to all prisoners, without regard
to their nationality, race or origin.
Many of the prisoners are Jews, and
their compatriets in the United States
recently petitionedl the Japanese gov:
eminent to grant freedom to al vic

desire to make their homes on the
island will be permitted to do so on

Minnesota.

Duluth, Mimi, Aug. -Four lives
were lost by the capsizing Of small

settlers of that portion Of the country.
Immediately after the accident a
party was organized at VernaS and
went to assist in the search for the
bodies, but up TO- five o'clock Tuesday
afternoon no trace whatever was to
be had. The search continued through
the night. Mrs. o. E. Pogue was a

The other members of the party, two
sisters and one brother, were nable

AFRICAN NATIVES DEFIANT,
Inhabitants of German Provinces
Rebel-0utbreak Causing
Great Concern.

Berlin, Aug. 1.-THE governor of
German East Africa telegraphed Sat-
urday to the colonial bureau 81 the
foreign Office that the natives IN the
Maturbi~ mountains north ct Hilwa
have risen, also, that there hesheen
an outbreak on the coast at Samanga
during which several warehouses were
burned. The causes of the discomfort
appear to be unexplained. While re.
bellions are in progress in other Ger.
man African colonies, East Africa
hitherto has been quiet. The outbreak,
therefore, causes some concern. The
government is thoroughly tired Of
these colonial wars in which consider.
able sums Of money have been sunk.
without bringing either profit or glory.
