WASHINGTON, Dec 14.-The most satisfactory CIT constance probably ever related in relation to Alaskan affairs is the fact that Secretary Daniels today told the naval committee of the house that the tests completed ten days ago have proved the coal from the Matanuska fields
 to be practically perfect for naval use This statement ends the doubt that has been harbOred in many quarters
 and shows once for all that the coal fields of Alaska Will
 be enough to bring of prosperity to that territory
 that had never been hoped for even by the most optimistic
 of its people or the people of the United States generally
 In statement made later Secretary Daniels expressed himself as eaed because of plans going forward for the opening of Alaska and the coal fields It was all the more gratifying he sad because last years tests indicated that the Berng river coal was unsuitable for naval uses The same tests tried on the Boring coal were repeated
 the Matanuska coal for seven days This was on forced draft trial of four hours at speed of twenty knots
 and also natural draft test of twenty four hours at ten knots Unlike the tests made with the Boring river coal last year. Secretary Daniels says was not necessary to handpick the Matanuska coal The results satis factory he declares that they justify the belief that the NatanuSka coal is thoroughly satisfactory in every way for the by the navy provided the coal tested fair

NAVY ON PACIFIC NOW ASSURED
 OF COAL SUPPLY, THEY SAY

indication of the general character of the coal in that field. The iremen of the Maryland according to Mr. Daniels pronounced the forced draft trial the easiest twenty knot run the Maryland has ever made on any other trials They state also that there was an entire absence of all those difficulties met with when the coal used IS not of the best quality.
 The firing was easy and the steam pressure was easily maintained The coal is reported having burned like pine knots"
 In addition to the report from the tests on the Mary land there has been issued an unofficial report on the evaporatve tests at the experiment. station It practcay confirms the tests made by the Maryland
 The navy department has given out statement to the effect that the results of the tests the Maanuska coal are very gratifying as they point the way to an adequate
 supply of coal on the Pacific coast for the navy when ade ouae transportation facilities have been provided
 The effect of the announcement on those who have m terested themselves on the question of Aaskas develop ment is very pleasant Just now when the question of the defense of the Pacific coast being agtated the proof of the good quality of the coal is almost sure to mean that congress will be only too glad to give any appropriation for the commencement of the work of opening the coal fields

AUSTRIANS ARE
 BADLY WHIPPED
SERVIANS STILL PURSUING THEM AND CAPTURING
 THOUSANDS.

NISH, Servia, Dec. 14.-The Aust rians are still retreating from Servia with the Servian army in hot pursuit and inhicting tremendous losses on them. Since the Servians assumed the offensive until December II the Aust rians lost twenty eight thousand men as well as immense stores of ammuni- tion, guns and supplies. Amongst the guns captured were seventy four can non and forty four machine guns. The success of the Servians has been fol- lowed up by the Montenegrins who have repulsed the Austrians at Vise- grad and driven them across the river Drina. It is now fully expected that the invaders will be driven completely out of Servian territory and that the Servian army will be enabled to ad- vance once more into Austrian soil. Belgrade is still in the hands of the Austrians but its evacuation will be probably found necessary by the Ser vians within few days.

DIVES UNDER MINES
 INTO DARDANELLES
British Submarine After Most Extraordinary Feat TOrpe-
 does Turkish Ship

LONDON, Dec. 4.-The most ex- traordinary feat of the war was ac- complished yesterday when the Bri- tish submarine B Eiven entered the Dardanells and in spite of difficult current dived under five rows of mines and torpedoed the Turkish battleship Massudieh. This story was officially announced this morning and created the greatest enthusiasm in this city.
 After having torpedoed the battle ship the B Eleven was pursued by tor pedo boats and several guns opened on her but she managed to return safely to the allied naval base outside the Dardanelles after having been sub merged on one occasion for nine hours at a stretch. When last seen the Mas sudieh was sinking by the stern and is undoubtedly at the bottom of the sea. She was an old vessel but was of ten thousand tors displacement and carried a crew of six hundred mer.
 The feat is regarded here as open ing a view of new possibilities for submarines.

RUSHING WORK
 ONITHE CANAL
GOETHALS DETERMINED TO HAVE EVERY INCH COM
 PLETED ON TIME.
(By The Associated Press.l

PANAMA, Dec. 12.-A hurry-up order has been issued by Governor Goethals for the completion of the canal. The time limit set by congress is July, 1916 and Col. Goethal is deter mined that the last of the finishing touchs in every department from dredging to landscape gardening shall be completed ahead rather than behind time. Col. Goethals himself is setting a pace, and may be seen often ar work in the Administration Building at Balboa late at night.
 Men and machines now on the isth- mus are said to be working harder than at any time since the great work was started ten years ago.
 Every morning Col. GOethals ap- pears at some part of the work where he has not been for several days prev iously, to hurry things along. There is the case of the steam shovels del wing into the side of Sosa Hill for the rock that goes to form the east break water in front of Colon Harbor. On each side is a huge placard which shows the number of cars loaded as the work progresses. For every job mark has been set to be surpassed if possible. On Sosa Hill the man who has charge of loading the cars that take the rock 50 miles across the isthmus to the new breakwater is working against the man in charge of transporting those same cars those 50 miles while the man who unloads them out near the end of the Emile trestle is rushing things so that he will always be just little ahead Oi the other two. At present there arc 200 to 25O cars of rock sent him every working day.

Saves the City From Pounding Surf While the Blizzard
 Sweeps Past.

Nome. Dec. 2.-The blizzard which threatener Nome with destruction by forcing ic and water from Berng sea high up on the beach subsided today without serious damage. The only thing that saved Nome from repeti- tion of the disaster of October 1913, was the hug Arctic ice pack, which, extending from shore as far as the eye could see, kept down the surf and protected the buildings against whicl it was jammed.
 Telephone lines along the coast in both directions from Nome are still down and no news concerning condi- tions in the smaller camps has been receivd.

FREEZING COLD
 HITS THE EAST
COLD WAVE CAUSES SUFFERING IN STATES WHILE SOFT
 RAIN FALLS HERE.

CHICAGO, Dec. 14.-The charitable organizations of the city were over whelmed today with appeals for aid as a result of the cold wave which has hit the great lakes region. The tenn perature fell thirty one degrees to zero within twenty hours and all the municipal lodging houses were packed with homeless men last night. The cold prevails all over the whole eastern states with zero weather and snow in the North Atlantic states. Much suffering has resulted particu- larly because of the unusual number of people who have been thrown out of employment as a result of the busi- ness conditions arising from the Euro pean war.

VIM. SAUERS TALKS OF
 PORTAGE BAY JOKE.

Vim. Sauers, of the Seward Com mercial Co.,, arrived on the Admiral Evans. Mr. Sauers spent several weeks in Seattle and visiting his peo- pie in Grey's Harbor. He feels very much elated over the prospects of Seward getting the Terminal of the Government railroad.
 The Admiral Evans called at Port age Bay on its way up and passengers had a very good opportunity to form some opinion of that as port. He states that the Evans dropped anchor 800 feet from shore in 30 fathoms of water, that docking facilities would be very poor and that there is practically no town site at all A big glacier Of blue ice extends right into where ;he town would have to be located .

PETROGRAD, Dec. 14.-The of- ficial statement this morning contains the informaton that the Turks have been defeated southeast of Erzerum and have been driven back to the Euphrates river and are now being pursued beyond that stream. The fighting took place along the greater part of the line of the Turkish ad- vance and the enemy was repulsed everywhere with very severe losses The Turkish force is the one which has been advancing evidently with the intention of entering Persia and the adjoining Russian territory.

 NEUTRALITY.

WASHINGTON. Dee. Ex-Governor GOethals has reiterated his request for the dispatch of two torpedo boat destroyers to the waters of the canal zone for the enforcement of the neu- trality laws of the United States. The governor states that he wishes to pre- vent the violation of neutrality through the misuse of wireless sta tiOns and the taking on of supplies by vessels belonging to bClligerent pow CTS within the three mile limit. There is no intimation given as to what power is supposed to be violating the neutrality laws but the request of the governor is being considered and more information as to the acts complained of is being sought.

At one time he owned an interest in the building with Mir. Miller but had sold out. MT. Miller says that in spite of this little anxiety MT. Hatch seemed to be all right when leaving for the outside.
 Anton Eide, of the Alaska Road Commission arrived on the Admiral Evans and will winter in Seward. He has put the last few weeks in on stalk ing out a new trail over the glaciers to the Shushanna from Mccarthy and says that while the route has not been shortened the present trial is some thousand feet lower and much safer for travel than the trail used last year.
 On the trip up from Seattle the Ad- miral Evans stopped in at Portage Bay and landed Jack Baird on the shore with stock of provisions. He brought lumber and will build a trading Post to be known as the Port age Trading Co. Jack is we'll known in Seward, having come out last year over the trail from IditarOd.
