FORCE CARRANzA
 ID BACK UP
Wanted To Refuse To Accept Huerta Bank Notes, But Mob Storm Treas
 ury and Threaten Revolution.

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 29.-Provis- ional President Carranza, who had or dered the treasury to refuse to rec ognize or cash the bank notes of the Huerta administrations, was forced to back up and agree to take the money back by the infuriated mobs which stormed the banks, the govern ment treasury, the palace, and for time threatened to overthrow the provisional government The on- slaught was so sudden that the po- lice and troops were being driven back and only by using their guns and firing into the mobs, killing many, were they able to stop the crowds long enough to make the an- nouncement that the government would recognize the Huerta notes held by the people.
 fingered by the inability of the po- lice force to maintain order, Presi- dent Carranza fired the entire force following the quelling of the riots and new force will be organized at once.

WILL CUT OUT
 MATANUSKA TRIP Railroad Commissioners Again Change Plans and Will Go To cordova
 Via Chitina.

Word has been received by the Val deg Commercial Association that Commissioners Mears and Riggs will not make the trip by way of Mata- nuska to Ship Creek and come from there together with Chairman Edes to Valdez and go over the trail to Copper Center, as planned when the commissioners left Fairbanks few days ago.
 The continuous rains of the past week have made travel very slow and the commissioners are fearful that they will not be able to get through before the snow flies, so they have cancelled their arrangements for saddle horses at Copper Center and will go to Chitina, from there to Kennecott and over the railroad to Cordova.
 Just what their plans are beyond Cordova is not known, but it does not look very promising for the com- mission to make a personal inspec- tion of the Valdez route this sea son.

Indian Troops for France.

LONDON, Aug. 29.-Lord Kitchen CT announced today that the 76,o0o regular English troops in India and the 175,OO0 natives, who have been drilled and are most efficient, are to be brought at once to southern France through the Mediterranean Sea and landed at Marseilles to op- crate against the Germans, along with the Algerian army of the French now being brought across the Mediter- ranean.
 laps May Come Alsoo.
 While it is not announced as yet that Japanese troops are to be brought to Europe it is now almost certain to come. The English army will be brought back from India and if necessary their place will be taken by the Japanese, besides which 500,- 900 Japs could easily be secured to join the allies against Germany.
 No Peace With Germany.
 The government and the people are convinced that if Germany wins the present conflict the Kaiser will have the world by the throat and they are determined that he shall not win. To this end large quantities of war ma terial are being sent to France to be placed in Paris for the French to enable them to hold out against the Germans until the armies of the pow CTS arrayed against the Kaiser can mobilize more troops.
 Abandon Offensive Strategy.
 The allies have abandoned all thought of taking the offensive against the Germans and General French, chief of staff of the Eng fish army, and General Joffre, chief of the French staff, have agreed that the allies will fight strongly on the defensive, delaying the march of the Germans, harrassing and annoying them, but risking no great battles until the forts at Paris are reached and then to hold the city at all costs until the Russians have forced the weakening of the German army and the French army of the south can be brought to its full strength of sev. eral million men through the aid of the English colonial troops, the French colonial troops and the French reserves. along with the Japanese. who are expected to be brought to Europe if necessary.
 French Coup In Alsace a Dlsmal
 Failure.
 The French planned a brilliant coup in Alsace yesterday and threw 8 large force of men against the Ger, mans, driving them back for some time. but in the end the coup was 8 dismal failure, because of the huge, German army against which the French were sent and which should have convinced them that the effort was useless. The French were driv- en back across the border with heavy losses. G.

 COPENHAGEN, Aug. 29--The Ger man war office has ordered all men, women and children of Belgium, be- sides the captive French and Eng fish soldiers into the German fields to harvest the rops, which are bad ly needed by the army, but which the German people cannot harvest, as the old men and boys have been ordered to the front and the women cannot harvest the grain.
 captives Forced To Work.
 The captives from Belgium have been driven in herds into the Ger man fields, where old men and boys are placed as guards over them and they are forced to work long hours. American Ambassador Makes Pro-
 test.
 It is reported here that the Ameri- can ambassador at Berlin has made formal protest to the German for eign office against the practice of forcing non-combatants to work for the Germans, especially the people of Belgium.

Germans Must Respect Holland Neu-
 traIity.

Germans Must Respect Holland Neu-
 trality.
 LONDON, Aug. 29.-Because of the immense importance to Germany of Hollands neutrality, as affecting food supplies, no hostile act by Ger many against the Netherlands is ex- pected.
 Even in normal times very large proportion of Germany's imports en- ter by Dutch ports, and now the trade that formerly entered through Hamburg might easily be transferred in part to Rotterdam, which affords a far more direct avenue to indus trial Germany than the famous Ger man port. There is nothing to stop American, Canadian and Argentine grain from being consigned in vast quanti ies to importers in Rotterdam, so long as it is carried in other than German ships, and these Dutch inn porters cannot be prevented from shipping this grain at once into barges and sending it up the Rhine.
 It is a matter almost of life or death to Germany that this open gate way for food and trade should not be closed, and it is doubtless solici- tude on this account that explains to large extent why the Germans have been so careful not to violate Dutch territory.

NEW TAX BILL
 ID BE PASSED Only Few Things To Be Taxed At Present and More To Follow
 After Election.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.-The House committee, to which has been referred the administration bill to provide money for the Treasury, now that the imports have been cut off and revenue from the tariff lost be- cause of the war in Europe, today de- cided upon bill taxing cocoa, cola, pepsin, cola wine, beer and baseball tickets, but will not tax whiskey and tobacco at this time.
 It is hoped to bring the income of the government near normal and also to cut appropriations so as to make both ends meet. No heavy tax will be passed until after the fall election, as the politicians in con- gress fear the effect on the party this fall should burdensome tax be imposed.

LONDON, Aug. 29-The admiralty today issued g statement regarding the sea fight this morning of the German island of Heligoland, in which two German cruisers and two torpedo boats were sunk and several others damaged. The British loss was the damaging of several small ships but no ships were sunk.
 Caught German Ships In Morning.
 The British fleet came upon the German cruisers early in the morn ing after they had gone out into the North Sea under cover of darkness. The British vessels came from the north along the Danish coast and were able to force the Germans to battle before they could set under the cover of the Notifications on the

 The Frencu war office has claimed that the second line of Notifications are still withstanding the terrific slaughter by the German troops and that it is believed they will continue to hold and that the Kaisers troops will be blocked from any further ad- vance.

 The French and English govern ments have sent note to the Rus sian war office to hurry its invasion of Germany and thus force the Ger mans to recall some of the troops op- erating against the allies, who are outnumbered two to one, as the Ger mans have massed their entire fight ing strength on the French border, while they have also 500,000 Austrian troops operating in Lorraine.
