SEATTLE, Dec. IA special committee of the Arctic Club is now considering arrangements for a new home for the club to be ready at the expiration of the present lease, March 31, 1915. The present quar- ters are not large enough. The club has membership of 1,41S, of which number 725 are active. The past year has been the most pros porous of the club since its organiza- ton.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The Ar genuine legation received word that the special mission headed by Senor Villancuva has left Valparaiso en route to this city to thank officials for participation in the centennial celebration of Argentine freedom from the Spanish yoke.
 During the past "A hours we have had all kinds of varieties of bad weather that included snow, rain, sleet and wind. The down. pour of rain last night has had a tendency to very greatly reduce the snow banks about town and on the hillsides.
 MEXICO CITY, Dec. Tt was given out this afternoon that Huerta was visiting. certain farms, and that this is the basis for rumors that he was leaving the country. WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-Investi- gation of the reasonableness of the proposed rate advances on 52 east ern railroads is now in progress by the Interstate Commerce Comm;s- sion, under the personal direction of Louis Brandeis, of Boston.
 INDIANAPOLIS, Nov 28.-This afternoon Mayor Shank resigned from office under pressure. The business men of the city had threat ened impeachment proceedings against him in connection with his official actions during the recent strike by the street railway em- ployees. Rather than to undergo this investigation the mayor pre- ferred to resign, and further pro- ceedings will be dropped. He will be succeeded by Harry Wallace, the present comptroller.

weather that kept taxpayers away.

[ or because everybody is fairly well satisfied with the assessments made, remains to be seen. At all events there were but two requests made for any change of the role, and they were granted. The lots that have been offered free to the government for a federal building by the Town site Company, were exempted from taxation. The half mile right of way of the c. R. & N. w. Railway, that is within the town limits, had been assessed at s10,000. Upon the request of Attorney Boryer this was reduced to s5,000. The board will continue to sit each evening this week, for an hour.
 During the past three or four days Shorty Gwin, Earl Munger, James Paulson and a dozen others came through from the Chisana to Mccarthy. A couple of dog teams and several horse teams also came out from the diggings. All returned by way of the Hazelet trail across the glaciers It is reported that the road is well beaten and that there Is now no trouble in getting across. e4o J-i hoc nln at nd nd the trail has been so we'll hardened by the tramping of new snow that the road was elevated and new light snow is blown across the trail and does not stick.
 There is an Interruption in the cable service between Valdez and Sitka. The extent or location of the trouble has not been definitely de- termined If there should be a serious break it will mean that ;t will be necessary to send the repair ship Burnside from Seattle to re- pair the trouble. As is customary at critical period, the Canadian land wires went down this after noon. However, as they have ire quent stations with men available to make repairs it is possible that this break may be righted by tomorrow. By reason of the trouble with the cable and telegraph lines we have not been able to receive any late news this afternoon from the out side world We are hoping for a better service tomorrow.
 The train that went out yester- day encountered considerable snow on the other side of Tiekel. It showed hard all day yesterday, 80 the rotary ran through to Chitina, encountering about two feet of snow. which it had no difficulty in disposing of. The tracks today were in good shape and the train from Chitina got in this afternoon about 4:3O o'clock. It was not showing out the line today.

NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-Cardlnal Gibbons and Cardinal Farley have endorsed the movement for the ob serVance of the fourth national tuberculosis day, on December ', ac- cording to announcement made to- day by the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuber- culosis. Cardinal Gibbons, writing to H. Wirt Steele, secretary of the Maryland Association for the Pre- vention and Relief of Tuberculosis, said: T shall follow with interest all your efforts in this splendid propaganda against the terrible dis ease, and hope the results of your labor will be commensurate with the zeal, the energy and the self-sacrifice which you and your fellow workers are devoting to the work" Cardi- nal Farley has spoken to the clergy under his supervision about assisting in the movement and has directed that the work be promoted in par ochial schools, the announcement states.
 CHICAGO, Dec. 2.-Scarcity of radium has prevented a thorough test of what it's curative properties, may be in cancer, according to the report recently made to the Clinical Congress of Surgeons by the Cancer Campaign Committee. The com mittee, organized to combat cancer by spreading information leading to early treatment of the disease as, soon as it manifests itself, reported upon the educational campaign of the last year, carried on by the Am erican Society for the Control of Cancer.
 Popular articles in magazines, publicity through newspapers, lec- lures before women's clubs, in fac tories and elsewhere, have been eff fective throughout the year in spreading information on cancer. Present death statistics on the scourge are of questionable value, it was said. Frederick L. Hoffman of Newark, N. J., declared that dis cussions of whether, cancer is on the increase at present was merely guesswork.
 MOLLENDO, Peru, Dec. 2.-Mer- chants and manufacturers of South America already are planning TOT vastly increased trade relationship with merchants and manufacturers of the United States upon the open ing of the Panama Canal to con- merce, according to statements made today by the members of the Ameri- can commercial expedition" which arrived here this morning on board the Pacific Steam Navigation Con- pany liner California, from Caliao. l They left by rail a few hours after their arrival, for Arequipa.
