GUATEMALA WILL
 PAY BRITISH CLAIMS

WASHINGTON, May 16.-Guatema- la has acceded to the demands or Great Britain for the settlement or the British claims against the govern ment.
 The claim that Great Britain has been pressing against Guatemala amount to more than $1O,OOO,OOO' These are bonds and interest that were placed in London to get funds to fund the national debt Default was made in the payment of the interest, and Che bondholders demanded that the bonds be paid in full with inter- est. President Taft and Secretary Knox welded the big stick over Gua- temala, threatening that the United States would pay the claims, and force settlement by Guatemala. Great Brit ain already was threatening to use force. The Wilson administration was appealed to, but refused to act as a collection agency, so the negotia' tions terminated yesterday were con- ducted directly between the Central American Republic and Great Britain.

WILSON IS LIKELY
 TO BAR LIQUORS

WASHINGTON, May 16-The Wash ington Star asks: Will President Will son follow the lead of Secretary of State Bryan in instituting a grape juice" regime?
 This question is going the rounds among ambassadors, justices, Con- gressmen, and Senators, who have oc- casion to partake of White House din ners. There is no answer yet but many habitues of the White House of fees are inclined to believe that the President will put into effect his own temperance views.
 The last White House dinner was not dry, but it is said there is good chance for the future affairs being strictly white ribbon"
 President Wilson himself is prac- tically a teetotaller. He has been known to drink a glass of beer once or twice a year, but for some time past he has avoided the use of even light wines and beer.

GEN. HUERTA EXECUTES
 300 MEN FOR POLITICS

NEW ORLEANS, May 15.-Late ar rivals here from Mexico say that more than 300 men have been execut- ed in Mexico City since Gen. Victor iano Huerta, President of Mexico, de- clared martial law for no other crime than that they served in office under the administration of Francisco I. Ma dero, or for having expressed dissatis- faction with the present regime.
 According to these recent arrivals, the trials are mockeries. Alleged mil itary courts are convened nightly at the arsenal and only few minutes are given to the hearing of those that are charged of crime, and the accused are immediately taken out and secretly shot.

 KOYUKUK WOMAN

FAIRBANKS, May 9.-Norah Moore, Seattle woman, was indicted by the grand jury today to answer to a charge of grand larceny. The woman is accused of stealing $5,OO0 worth of gold dust from Ben Dahl, Koyukuk miner.

C., and teach him to draw legal papers, pro- vided he gave his poke to her for safe keeping. He signed bill of sale for the dust two days after delivering the poke, but claims to have been ignor' ant of the nature of the document.
 The woman decamped in the dead of night for Fairbanks with a fast dog team by way of the Chandlar trail Learning this, Dahl started mushing over the Fort Gibbon mail trail, a longer route, determined to beat the Moore woman to Fairbanks. He tray eled night and day, making fifty and sixty miles a day, and arrived in Fair. banks several hours before the dog team. His feet were swollen and he is hardly able to walk now.

SITKA IS BECOMING
 THRIVING CENTER

SITKA, May H. After slumbering for many, many years in the tranquil ity of Government sustentation, Sit ka has awakened to a new life, nour' ished by her own natural resources. The strange activities that are spring ing up on every hand bewilder the old. timers, who are beginning to return, as the changes in Trrytown did Rip Van Wrinkle.
 The Sitka Wharf & Power Company has ordered the machinery for a twen- ty-five thousand dollar power plant. The electricity will be generated from Sawmill Creek, and the company ex- poets to be able to supply power to manufacturing concerns at Seattle prices.
 Under special authorization from the Governor, Representative A. C.. Shoup has taken charge of the marine barracks buildings, on behalf of the Territory; and as soon as Governor Strong returns will arrange with him to put the institution in shape to be occupied as a homo by the pioneers who have spent their lives in the ser vice and development of Alaska.
 * *#
 Realizing the exceptional opportun- ity that the opening up of the halibut industry has created for machine shop, the citizens are holding open a fine waterfront site for the right man. Speaking of machine shop sites reminds one of the broad guaged spir- it in which the businessmen of Sitka are encouraging the institution of new industries. While they are turning a cold shoulder or wildcatters and four floushers, whenever anyone shows up with a legitimate proposition and a manifest intention of making good, the people of Sitka immediately give him every assistance possible.
