Belgrade, Servla, Sept 29.-An ex-

the death of two former army officers
and free street riotlng. The two
army officers, who held commands
in the so-called reglcide regiment,
were detained in the prison on a triv-

by delay and alleged obstacles put
in the way Of bringing their cases to
trial, the two prisoners. while exer-

from the prison guards and barrlcad-

officers were strangled by the guards
who then emptled their revolvers into
the lifeless bodies Of the men.
In the meantime angry crowds
gathered about the prison, denounc-
ing the reglcide government. Later IN

NEAR ARCTIC
CIRCLE
THREE MILLION ACRES
THROWN OPEN TODAY
Prospective Settlers Flock to
Far North Seeking Homes;
Bright Prospects for AgricuI-
ture in New Country,

Washington. Sept. 29.-About fifty
miles south of the Arctic circle and
the land of perpetual snow and ice,
in the Juneau land. Uncle Sam will
open 2,9SO,00O acres of land for set
tlement on Monday, This great
Alaskan tract had been held in re-
serve for a national forest around
Norton bay, but the demand for entry
on the land was so great that the
project was abandoned. BY the terms
of the proclamation of the secretary
of the interior, the tract becomes sub
ject to settlement day after tomorrow,
and to entry one month later.
Despite the meager accommoda-
tions provided by the steamship com
panies, and the fact that Alaska has
been passing through the throes of a
general strike and tle-up, thousands
of prospective settlers have made
their way to the northland, and re-
ports received here indicate that
nearly all of the big tract will be
speedily settled,
Agriculture in Alaska is proceeding
hand in hand with the mining build
ing and road-making operations.
Government experiment stations have
been established to determine what
will grow which has heretofore been
exotic to the soil. So far, all the
harder vegetables have been made to
thrive, and successful experiments are
now being made I'm the interior val
leys to grow hay, grain and stock
feed capable of maintaining animals.
II 10 believed by those who have in
vestigated the soil of Alaska that the
territory will in time become as rich
agriculturally as It now is in the min
ing industries. In portions of the
tract about to be opened to settle
ment. the climate is said to be COM
paratively mild and the soil will grow
almost any crop raised In cooperate
zones
The rush of settlers to Alaska to
work its farms will result In a great
increase in the white population.
which Is now in the neighborhood Of
10000, and statehood Is not impossi-
Bile in the not remote future. The
yearly increase in the Caucasian pow
ulation has been about 1000 in the
past. but this Is now going up by
leaps and bounds. Cable. telegraph
and mail connections are being rap
idly extended throughout the terri
tory, and already the popular concep-
tion of Alaska as a barren. ice-bounc
and almost uninhabitable section s
exploded
Most important to the growth and
prosperity of Alaska Is the develop
ment Of its railroad and steamship
lines, and this Is being rapidly accom-
plished. The Alaska Central rail-
way is being pushed northward from
Seward to Fairbanks, the Monatuska
coal fields and the Yukon, 400 miles
to the north, The Nome and Arctic
railway is pushing its line toward
Kougarok, and the Alaska Short Line,
with terminus at Illiamna bay, is
headed toward Nome. Most Of the
lines now being built will enter the
Kayak coal fields, where coal Is
plentiful and Of a high grade.
