LONDON TIGHTENS CENSORSHIP

LONDON, Sept. 1.-The censorship on war dispatches has been frightened by the British and less news can now be obtained than There is longer such thing correspondent and only the govern ment of each country gives cut the news T. F. OConnor the journalist and member of parliament, brought the matter up in the house of days ago and asked that the American newspaper correspondents be given more news for their papers but instead of having the request granted the censorship has been made than ever.
 It is rumored here that the British have landed an other strong force at Ostend and attacking the Ger mans in the
 It is certain that fighting has been resumed along the whole front and that the German right wing continues to advance along the coast of France opposite England In the meantime has been announced that fierce fighting is going on along the Russian frontier and that both sides are claiming victory but as all dispatches must come through the government press bureau they must be ceped with good deal of mental reservation to say the least of it.

EXPLORERS IN
 AWFUL DANCER
CUTTER BEAR CANNOT REACH WRANGELL ISLAND; WRECK
 ED MEN MAY DIE

NOME, Sept. That the members of the Stefranson expedition who have been marooned on Wrangell Island for some time are now in the most serious danger if they have nO' already perished is the feeling her' now because of the failure of the U. S. revenue cutter Bear to reach them. The Bear returned yesterday after having failed in it's task be- cause of mountainous ice encountered near the island and because it ran short of coal and could not wait any longer.
 The most serious fact is that Cap tain Bartlett, commander of the ship Narluk of the expedition, states that the provisions of the marooned people could not have lasted longer than the tenth of August so that the people now generally fear that most tragic occurrence has already taken place.
 The Bear will coal here at once and make another effort to reach Wran- gell Island and it is quite possible that the castaways may have secured enough provisions of some kind to sustain life. All the marooned people are well known here so that the fail ure of the Bear to reach the island and the consequent danger to which the castaways have been exposed is a matter of grave local concern.

ALL GAME PLENTIFUL EXCEPT OUR OLD FRIEND JACK
 RABBIT

With the opening of the small game season today pr. Baughman, the gen. ial game warden of this district, an nounces that all game is plentiful with the exception of the Alaska prospector's good old standby, rabbits This is the periodical year for the thinning of the rabbit population Such a season, like human wars comes every seven or eight years and the rabbits die away.
 Dr. Baughman was one of the first himself to take to the water this morning. He brought down two fine mallards and four big hawks. He saw SS mallards in a short time at the head of the bay and says there is lots of sport ahead for duck hunters.

SAYS SEWARD BEST
 MINING DISTRICT OF ALI

Jack Letterman, a well known pros pector and mining man, of Fairbanks, arrived on the car last night from the end of the line. Mir. Letterman has been looking over the Port Wells and Portage Bay district and passed them up for Seward as in his opinion the mining possibilities in this section are greater than any other part of Alas ka. Mir. Letterman says that the set tiers in that country are more on the order of land grabbers than prospec- tors and are more willing to discuss terminal possibilities than formation with you. He came over the glacier, landing at Mile 69 and is planning on spending the balance of the season in the hills back of Seward.

Accord ing to the rules of the papal conclaves no news can be given out as to the progress of the proceedings. 1t is surmised that the chief concern of the college of cardinals will be not to elect a pope who might be persona non grata to any of the great powers now engaged in the deadly conflict as such an election might be taken to mean an offense.

LEASING BILL
 READY TO PASS
DELEGATE wICKERSHAM WIRES TO SAY TT WILL PASS HOUSE
 ON THURSDAY

That the Alaska coal leasing bill will pass the house next Thursday is the statement contained in telegram from Delegate James Wickersham which was received yesterday by the Commercial club of Seward. Mir. Wickersham states that the bill was fully considered yesterday. It is quite possible, however, that the tele- gram could mean that the bill will be passed by both houses next Thursday and that the consideration yesterday was by the house. This is due to the fact that the word house could be used as part of the first sentence or the last.
 But, here is the telegram in full, exactly as it read:
