Rivals Facing a Decisive Test

to Villas Halt on March to Mexico
City-Indications Are That He Has
His Own Junta In Washington.
1t is generally admitted here. says
Washington dispatch to the New York
Tribune, that the whole Mexican situa-
ton, especially in rebel territory, is
critical. Commenting on advices to the
effect that General Villa had returned
from the recently captured town of
Zacatecas to Torreon and had taken
with him the main body Of his troops,
the Tribune says that some secret
strategical reason is responsible for
this withdrawal from the advance on
Mexico City. It is declared by his
friends that Villa has no intention Of
turning against Carranza militantly or
otherwise In fact. Villa is said to
have telegraphed one Of his agents in
Washington that he would take no &C.
ton against Carranza.
Despite the protestations OF Consti-
nationalist agents, it is we'll known
that most serious situation exists in
northern Mexico and that wrapped up
in it is the future of the revolutionary
movement.
Test Of Strength Coming.
While Villas agents declare that he
will not take aggressive action against
Carranza, it is admitted that the breach
between the two has widened and that
the time is rapidly approaching when
there must be test Of strength.
In the war department the situation
is being watched with keenest interest.
Army officers believe that the Ameri-
can army is nearer to active service in
Mexico than at any time in several
months. Most officers believe that in
tervention is inevitable, no matter how
much the administration may try to
avoid it.
An interesting dispatch to the New
York Sun from Ell Paso, Tex. says:
1.-The tense situation in the Constitu-
tiona!ist ranks is reflected by the atti-
tude Of the representatives of Carranza
and Villa at this point
"While both sides declare for publ
cation that the relations between the
supreme chief and his fighting general
are strained, they insist that they have
not reached the point where there will
be decision by arms.
"Villa came up to TorreOn only TO go
to Parral to attend the military funeral
Of General Trinidad Rodriguez. who
was killed at Zacatecas, say his agents.
Villa has come north to confer with
Carranza's representatives at Torreon.
say the other men, and it will all be
smoothed down by the elimination Of
General Felipe Angeles.
1T is noted, however, that Lazaro de
la Cara and a. Farias. Villas CON-
mercial agents. have begun to talk to
Washington over a leased telegraph
wire as If he had started an independ-
ent junta of his own at the capital.
They are sending and receiving mes
sages for hours at time. but they will
not say with whom they talk.
'"The explanation Of the Carranzistas
is that Villa has organized a lobby at
Washington in order to have the en-
barge on arms lifted and that he is not
supplanting the official junta Of the
Constitutionalists''

KING THURMAN
 MAY BE DEAD
GRAVE ANXIETY FELT BECAUSE OF DISAPPEARANCE OF WELL
 KNOWN PROSPECTOR

Word was received in Seward yes
 terday of the possible loss of one, King Thurman, a well-known pros pector and trapper of the Lower Lake country. Thurman left his cabin a trifle over month ago and with only his dog for company started on a prospecting trip in the vicinity of Trout lake. He left a note in the ca bin stating where he was going and that he would be back in a couple of weeks. Parties calling at the cabin saw the note and became alarmed at the non-arrival of Thurman and a searching party was organized to try to locate the missing man, but so far no trace of him has been discovered. One feature of the disappearance that leads his neighbors to believe that he has met with an accident is the fact that his dog, an inseparable compan- ion to the missing man, returned to the cabin some time ago and men who know the dog say that it would not

DECK CLEARED FOR ACTION
 ON ALASKA COAL BILL

WASHINGTON, Sept. 22-The riv- CTS and harbors bill passed the senate this afternoon and the decks are now cleared for action on the Alaska coal leasing bill which will almost surely be brought up for final passage i'm mediately. This haste is due to the action of President Wilson who has been persistent in his efforts to have the Alaska coal leasing bill made law at the very first opportunity. The fact that congress is willing to ap- propriate the enormous sum required for rivers and harbors improvements is taken as evidence that the govern ment will not hesitate in the least in carrying out needed works even when the revenues of the country have fall en. The president seemed for a time to be rather anxious but he has drop ped his opposition to the appropria- ton entirely and the work will go as if there had been no war.

RICHMOND, Sept. 23.-Prohibition has carried Virginia by majority of thirty-three thousand. Most of the cities of the state have also gone dry contrary to all expectations and that it will be the drieSt state in the Union is now virtually assured. The contest was fought by both sides with tre- mendous energy and while the state was expected to vote dry the foes of prohibition claimed that the cities were utterly opposed to prohibition and to this even some of the prohibi tioniStS themselves agreed.

ACCUSATION OF IDLING
 LED TO FATAL ROW
Case Will Be Tried at the Coming Term of the Court Here in Seward

A Mexican will be tried here at the term of court next month for the mur- der of another Mexican at Kodiak. Judge Whittlesey, assistant district attorney, says that the occurrence arose from the peculiar fact that one man accused the other of not doing sufficient work. The exact details have not been learned but it is known that one of the parties to the dispute stabbed the other fatally while he claims that the other hit him with an iron bar or had threatened to do so. Judge Whittlesey has learned that similar disputes are frequent in the canneries among the people of foreign nationalities who are usually employ ed in them. When one man is doing less than another the latter-how diff ferent from the white brother-gets sore and tells the boss.

PEOPLE DEMAND AGGRESSIVE ACTION

The sinking of the three huge cruisers the Abouklr, the Hopue and the Greasy, by German submarine has caused here the realization of the hepessness of big war ships against the attacks of submarine vessels and some thing akin to consernaton has reigned since the news came of the destruction of the ships The people are now demanding more aggressive action against the German
 fleets and the plan of sealing up the ships of the enemy in their harbors by means of mines is being discussed
 It proposed to withdraw the British fleets from the range of submarines and to leave in their place great number of mines that would render the coming out o the German ships proceeding of the gravest danger to them
 selves While the mines being laid it is expected that the Germans will make effort to prevent the work and that biz naval engagement may be forced them The newspapers here expressing openly the dssatis- faction of the public at the tame methods Of the fleet Tn the North Sea- Constantly arrives Of the loss ot some British naval merchant vessel in that sea and all

STEPHENSON BELIEVED
 10 HAVE PERISHED

NOME, Sept. 23.-That V. Stefan son. the explorer, has periShed miSera- bly, in the Arctic ice foes is the opin- ion expressed here today by Captain Louis Lane of the Polar Bear who has just returned from an extended trip in the Arctic regions. Joe Bernard the skipper of Lanes ship, also be- ieves that StefTanSOn is dead and they both declare that they have reluctant ly come to that conclusion after a most careful search for all the infor- nation obtainable.
 StefTanSon with his party left this city last summer but the ships in which the expedition left came ru grief after some time.
 StefFanson quit the Karluk and while he was ashore winds came up which drove her out to sea and left him stranded. The Karluk was later abandoned and some of the members of the expedition managed to reach Wrangell Island but about half of them perished. With SteffanSon when he was left by the ship was his Secre- tary. a young man named Mcconnell
 Soon after the starting of the expe- dition from this place one man left il and returned to his home at Teller city. He is well known in this neigh borhood. He stated that he left the expedition for reasons which he haC promised not to make public. The belief is that serious misunderstood ings took place which have caused al the disasters.

A crew of men is now preparing the Skeen-Lechner mine for the close sea son so that everything will be pre- served in good shape for the opening season next spring.
