TAKING HOMESTEADS AND
 MINES AT ILLIAMNA
Mir. Parks of the Land Department Says Many Men Are Going into
 That Section

Many people are now going into the Iiamna lake and Clarke lake dis tricts and taking up homesteads or prospecting according to George Parks of the land dept. Two home steads have been taken up at Oil Bay, ten miles from Iliamna, within the past two months and most of the people who have ben living around that region are now going on farms. The Duryea brothers who have a ranch at the head of Cottonwood bay at the head of Iliamna bay have sent out exhibits of vegetables to the Panama Fair at San Francisco. These exhibits consist of several boxes of potatoes, carrots and other farm pro duce. Others have also sent out ex- hibits. Mir. Parks has been in that district for some time classifying the mineral lands and taking notes of the agricultural matters.

BATTLING TN SAME OLD PLACE
WAR NOW AFFECTS STEAMER ROUTE TO ALASKA
|. s. TROOPS SOON
 10 LEAVE VERA CRUZ

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-The American troops will probably soon be ordered to leave Vera Cruz owing to guarantees which have been secured from both sides in the Mexican em- broglio. It has been decided by this government to let the Mexican fac tions deal with their own internal affairs entirely provided that all other interests will be protected and that stable government will be pro- vided at the conclusion of the present discussions. To bring about these de- sirable facts the Washington govern ment demanded the guarantees some time ago when the Mexican national convention requested the American government to withdraw it's troops and the guarantees have now been obtained so that President Wilson and Secretary Bryan feel it to be quite safe to leave the country to itself.

TWO LADIES OVERCOME
 BY GASOLINE FUMES
Bride of Dr. Carmichael of Knik Had Unpleasant Landing at That Place


 When the lady who recently became the bride of Dr. Carmichael at Knik landed at that place she and another lady and child had a most unpleas- ant experience when they were over come by the fumes of the gasoline on the launch Sea Lion which took them ashore from the steamer. AS the boat was going ashore leak must have occurred in the apparatus. The other lady was over come and fell over in a faint. The lady who is now Mrs. Carmichael went to her assistance and was also rendered unconscious. The child of the first lady was overcome soon afterwards and all three had a most disagreable experience but were later brought to and said to be none the worse for the occurrence.

NATIVES VOTED IN
 AFOGNAK PRECINCT

The vote published yesterday from Afognak also included the natives who by the treaty with Russia are regarded as having the privilege. The question that all Alaska natives were made citizens by the treaty was crashed out some time ago but nothing has been concluded about it. It is said that Delegate Wickersham believes them to be citizens, or that, at least, he did while he was on the bench. It is also stated, however, that native woman who marries an American cit izen becomes a citizen. In Afognak the natives may enter saloons like white people.

ALL CITIES
 VOTE LARGER
BIG INCREASE NOTICED IN VOTING EVERYWHERE THIS
 ELECTION

One remarkable fact noticeable in the election returns is that all the cities boiled much larger votes than .hey boiled in the last election. The increase is so great in most of the cen ters of population that the addition of the womens' vote cannot account for it. This is all the more remark able considering the differences of he season on which the two elections were held.
 The vote for Nome last year was 5lO and this year it is S7O. The vote for Chitina is 1lS compared to 1O9. The vote for Ketchikan has doubled. It is 314 to 16l. The vote in Douglass 4lso doubled. It is 332 to 167. Skag- way had 16O this time as compared to i37 last election. Katalla has 76 com pared to 60.

British Columbia Coast
 Preparing For Defense
WAR COMES TO ALASKA

OTTAWA, Nov 1.-The Canadian government to- day officially announced the western portion of Brough- ton strait north of Vancouver Island has been closed to all navigation for purpose of defense Vessels between Johnstone strait and Queen Charlotte Sound must take the western passage and Blacksh sound vessels going by the way of Ella Point channel are in danger of being fired on The order obges vessels using the inside pas sage to Alaska to abandon Broughton strait The Black
 fish sound channel is perfectly feasible for navigation The only reason that be assumed for these precautions is the fear that the German ships in the Pacific may make raid on the Canadian Pacific shores Since the bat
 tie off Chile the Pacific has British ships to oppose those hostile vessels and unless the Japanese fleet handle them there is danger that British Columbia might be made the object of attack.

Should the two squadrons come together
 thrilling fight may be expected The Japanese vessels are more powerful than the Schnahors and the Chef senau but the efficiency of the last two proven in the recent battle is expected to enable them to make good account of themselves
