Charles E. Bunnell addressed an audience that packed Eagle hall to the entrance last night, and at the conclusion of his speech he was giv- en an ovation that demonstrated that most of the huge crowd may safely be classed among his supporters.
 The speech of the Democratic can didate was temperate and argumen- tative and, in the opinion of all his thoughtful hearers, showed his ca pacity for public service. His two months trip through the territory and meeting with the people of widely sep arated districts and diverse inter- ests has expanded his grasp of Alas ka affairs, and proven his ability to represent the territory in any body of men. This was the popular yer dict.
 MT. Bunnell discussed the topics of livest interest to Alaska, transporta- tion, mining and fisheries, and stat ed his views on all of them with clearness, leaving no doubt as to his

 It is believed here among the dip lomats that the other Balkan states are sure to become involved in the present war. Bulgaria is still smart ing under the recent defeat by Ser via and Greece and is expected to join the Turks against her enemies, while Roumania may go either way.

He read the original mes sage from Chairman Doremus of the Democratic congressional committee urging all Democrats to support the nominee of the party in Alaska. MT Bunnell said he expected that if elect ed his usefulness to the territory would be due largely to the fact of his being allied with the party in power.
 In closing MT. Bunnell paid trib ute to the pioneers of Alaska, whc have waited so long for the nation al government to offer adequate aid to the development of the territory and expressed the hope that before many years extensive development will bring statehood to this last from tier of the nation.

zAPATA JOINS
 VILLA FORCES
Now Control the Peace Conference
 Down and Out.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 3O-The State department has received a report from Special Agent Canova, who is at the convention of Rebel chiefs at Aguas- calientes, to the effect that General Villas supporters have made cola tion with the agents and representa- tives of General Zapata and that they now control the convention and demand the resignation of Provision al President Carranza at once and the turning over of the reins of gov ernment to General Villareal or Edu- ardo Hay if Senor Calderon is not accepted by the Carranza followers.
 Canova states that when the fact of the Villa-Zapata pact became known to the Carranza delegates this morning a riot was started in the church where the meetings are be- ing held and that the peace congress came near ending in a slaughter of peace delegates.
 The report indicates that all the forces opposed to Provisional Pres. ident Carranza have united and will start revolt of serious proportions unless the demands they make are granted. It is also feared that even the granting of the Villa terms can not stop an outbreak.
 Reports from Mexico City charge that as one of the preliminaries te the Aguas Calientes convention Car ranza caused the arrest and confine ment of every Villa sympathizer ir the city. Among those imprisoned by order of Carranza are Enrique C. Llorene, former consul at Havana for the Carranza government, who was recently indicted at Ell Paso for vio lation of the neutrality laws of the ' United States; Col. Abel Serratos chief of staff to the Carranza minister of war, Trevino; Col. Carlos Domin. gues and Martin L. Guzman, both ot the Corstitutionalist army, and two newspaper men, Jose Manuel Villa and Santiago Suarez. These men are held incommunicado.
 General Lucio Blanco left the con. vention yesterday for Mexico City to take charge of his troops, who were being harassed by the Zapata forces.

Demand For Motorcycle
Cop Is Turned Down

well, it's up to council now. Let
the taxpayers complain to them for
I've done my duty"
With this remark Burgess Fred Wig
field left the Steel council chamber
in chagrin last evening after council
had ignored his request for a motor
cycle cop I'M additional patrolmen.
The burgess appeared before the
councilmen in person and read a letter
in which he called attention to the re-
cent fatalities and serious accidents
due to improper observance of traffic
rules. He requested a motorcycle cop
to help enforce the regulations.
1T wouldn't cost the taxpayers an
other cent" he explained, because
the office of lookup keeper could be
abolished and the from his
office would pay for the motorcycle
and more than maintain It." This office
is now held by the borough secretary
and pays about $500 a year in fees.
At the conclusion of the burgess
talk he was politely given the cold
shoulder when Councilman Capella
moved that his communication be re-
ceived and filed. Later on, however, an
effort was made to smooth his injured
feelings by promising to have a traffic
ordinance passed and warning signs
erected about town.
