When Delegate Wickersham was in Cordova, and in fact in Q speech de- livered at Fairbanks, he stated that as soon as Congress convened he in- tended to introduce a bill appropri- ating $lO,OOO,OOO for the construction of government railroads in Alaska, in- timating that this would be an admin istration measure, which would likely meet with little opposition. If the tel egram published in our contemporary last night is to be relied on, Secretary Lane is only going to ask for $5,00O,- 900 for this work during the coming year, which amount, it says will be sufficient to buy the Alaska Northern and build one hundred miles of ad- ditional track from Kern Creek. As the Alaska Engineering Commission has not as yet submitted it's report, and President Wilson has announced no decision as to the route or routes selected, the latest rumor as to where the first work will begin must be. talk en with a grain of salt.-CordOva Daily Times.

.LIEGE AGAIN
 A FORTRESS GERMANS REBUILD ALL THE FORTS IN BETTER SHAPE
 THAN EVER.
(By The Associated Press. ]

AMSTERDAM, Dec. l1.--No better illustration can be given of the far sightedness and throughness of the German machine than the elaborate rebuilding operations in course of completion at Liege. In the compara- lively short time since its forts were wrecked by the invaders artillery, Liege has been rebuilt into a model German fortress, and is to be used as an object lesson for students in the German military schools It is built as though the Germans expect to stay.
 All the Belgian forts have been re- paired with a single exception; much of the old artillery has been replaced with Krupp fortress cannon of the lat est type, and even the landscape has been remodelled with a view to de- fense. All the newest ideas of German and Austrian military experts have been embodied in the placing of ord- nance, in the erection or ramparts, in trenches, observation places, highway mines, secondary batteries, and block houses.
 There is an intricate system of con- meeting works between the various main points of the outlaying defenses. Great attention has been paid to the use of villages and forests for conceal ing fortifcation. Trenches are flat with the ground so as to be visible on- ly from above, and are protected with concealed barbwire entanglements. The trenches are drained and partially covered for protection against rain and snow, while the width is ample enough to allow carriage of stores and ammunition without interfering with the troops.
 A considerable part of the hard lab or involved in completing the trenches is done with military traction tren- oh digger" which cuts a furrOw about three feet wide and three feet deep.
 Most of the old Belgian forts have been entirely remodelled; some have been raised, some lowered, with a view to greater efficiency of shell fire or to increasing the sweep of country which their guns can command. There are several false batteries cleverly constructed to attract aeroplane or cavalry attack.
 The town is dull and quiet. All shops and cafes are required to close at eight o'clock in the evening. News papers are at a heavy premium.
