CANDIDATES ANNOUNCE
 THEMSELVES ALREADY.
Two Nome Men Outside Want to Fill Vacancy Caused by Senator
 Burners Death.

Word has been received from Seat tie that George James and Andy Anderson, both of Nome, who are now in the Spirit city have announced their candidacy for the election to the ter ritOrial senate for the place made vacant by the death of Senator El- wood Bruner. The two men were candidates at the regular election but stood so much in the way of each other that Aldrich was elected. Mir. Anderson passed through Seward a few months ago on his way outside after the wreck of the Silver Wave on which he left Nome. There has been no statement made yet as to whether an election to fill the vacancy will be held.

YPRES WILL SEE
 GREAT BATTLE.
GERMANS MOBILIZING FOR WHAT MAY PROVE DECIS-
 I'VE FIGHT.

PARIS, Feb. 1.-The Germans are mobiHziug in great force around Ypres and are evidently planning to strike a great blow at the allies in that quarter with the hope that they can break the line and divide the al- lied forces. They have already de- livered several determined attacks at Ypres but so far all such attacks have been repulsed by the allied artillery and infantry. The official announce ment this morning states that several German trenches have been demolish- ed by the allied artillery along the river AisDe With this exception there is nothing told of definite nature and apparently no decisive results have been gained for some days in any part of the war theater.

WILSON WILL SPEAK ON
 SHIP PURCHASE MEASURE.
Expected to Make Speech of Admin istratiOn Before Commerce
 Chambers.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-President Wilson will address the united Cham Der of Commerce of the United States next Wednesday on the ship purchase bill and is expected to deliver most important speech of the administra- tion. He will endeavor to show the business interests of the country that in purchasing the ships of Germans or others he is not at all trying to in- jure private ownership of merchant marine but he is seeking to build up American Commerce. The speech is probably intendd to destroy Opposi- tion in the senate and to secure the support of the mercantile interests.

GERMANS OPEN
 WARSAW FIGHT
RENEW ATTACKS ON VISTCLA AND BZURA RIVERS
 VIOLENTLY.

PETROGRAD, Feb. l.-The in- creasing violence of the German at Jacks on the Vistula and Bzura rivers is believed to mean General Hind enburg is planning a violent onset with the purpose of attempting to capture the city of Warsaw. The sev- crest fighting during the past few days has been proceeding near Sochacszew which is the nearest town on the Bzura to the Polish capital The advances made by the enemy are not large although it is apparent that they have made some progress to the westward of the city which is the ob- ject of their campaign.

RIOTS IN ROME
 AT PEACE MEET
CROWDS HISS PEACE ADVO- GATES AND BAYONETS
 SCATTER THEM.

ROME, Feb. IA meeting called yesterday by senators and public men for the purpose of starting a move ment in favor of peace broke int, fierce riots. When the speakers al luded to peace the crowd hissed and became so riotous that the police were compelled to disperse the people at the points of their bayOnets. Pars of the people who attended the meeting were strongly in favor of Italy main taining neutrality and the rioting be- gan when men of that opinion and the advocates of war came to blows. For a time the city was in a pandemonium and several serious encounters took place.
 After that meeting another meeting of working people was held to protest against the rise in the price of wheat and the government today suspended the duty on wheat to alleviate the dis tress as much as possible. The popu- lation seems to be so much divided on the question of the war that it is diff ficult to tell what the ultimate out come will be. Some prominent people seem to fear that if Italy remains neutral she will be entirely left out of consideration when the time comes for arranging peace terms and for dividing the parts of the continent af- fected and arranging the spheres of influence of the different nations.

 Daughters.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2.-Herman Auerback, a wealthy real estate man, killed his wife and two daughters last night under the most revolting cir cumstances and later took his own life.

Auerback Is supposed to have suddenly been driven crazy for some reason or another. It is known that he had lived on the best terms with his wife and children dur ing all their lives and the only explan- ation of the crime is that he must sud denly have been seized with a murder ous mania.

DACIA STARTS
 FOR GERMANY
FAMOUS SHIP TO TEST CONTRA. BAND MATTER JUST
 LEFT.

GALVESTON, Feb. 1.-The steam ship Dacia, which was transferred from German to American registry, leaves today for Bremen, Germany, direct with cotton and it is nelieved that she will be seized by the British authorities and the voyage may be one of historic importance. Cotton has not been declared contraband by the British but the transfer of Ger man ships to American registry is re- sented deeply by the British people and it is feared that this resentment will be carried to such a length that a very awkward situation might be developed. Tho Dacia was to lave left some time ago but has been de- layed in getting her cargo ready. Nothing has been heard of the steam ship Wilhelmina which is carrying food supplies direct to Germany. It is thought that both vessels will be seized.

LONDON, Feb. IA German sub marine sank three Bditish merchant vessels last Saturday near Liverpool and another hostile submarine appear ed off that port today. The worst kind of panic has resulted amongst the shipping interests. Most of the British ports have been closed and many people have come to the con clusion that at last the enemy has as- tackled Britain in her most vulnerable point. While the country stands aghast at the nerve and effectiveness of the German enemy there comes the stroy that a German submarine has sunk two British merchant steamers off the port of Havre, France. It is not too much to say that shipping has been terrorized if such a phrase could be used.

EXAMINING SNOW ON
 COPPER RIVER R. R.
Alaska Engineering Commission Man is Now Making New In-
 vestigatiOns.

K. K. Kuney of the Alaska Govern ment engineering commission has ar rived at Cordova and is now investi- gating the snow conditions on the Copper River Railraod for the govern ment, according to the Alaska Times of CordoVa. In the Portland Oregon ian appears a dispatch from it's Wash ington correspondent, dated January IS, in which it is stated that President Wilson is carrying on negotiations with the Guggenheims for the pur- chase of the Copper River R. R. The oregonian correspondent also states that President Wilson is trying to make friends with Wall Street and insinuates that the purchase of the Copper River road is part of the plan to secure the Streets friendship. The writeup is, however, very evidently intended to be antagOnistic to the ad- ministration and should, therefore, be taken carefully.

FRENCH SHIP IS SUNK

Berlin Announces Success of Sub marine Attack off City of
 NieupOrt.

BERLIN, Feb. IA French tor pedo boat has been sunk off the city of Nieuport by German submarine. The torpedo boat was one of the yes ses that had been engaged in shel- ling the German positions on the Belgian coast. The number of lives lost by the sinking of the vessel has not been told. The success of Ger man submarines during the past few days has caused the greatest rejoicing here as the sinking of the British merchant ships is taken to mean that England can now be reached through her stomach in spite of her great fleets.

IA great battle has just started in the Car pathian mountains between the Dukla and Wyszkow passes which will prob ably be the decisive conflict to deter mine the fate of the Russian effort to hold Galicia and Hungary. It is ad- mitted here that the struggle which has opened will be a bitter and well contested one as the Austrians have received tremendous endorsements and will fight with the knowledge that defeat will mean the advance of the Russian army into the heart of the Austro-Hungarian empire.

GERMAN SUBMARINE
 RAIDS LIVERPOOL

this port It may be the same sub- marine that inflicted so much damage last Saturday, but it has caused all the ships that were ready to clear to postpone their sailings. It is now clear that Germany has commenced in earnest it's threatened war against the merchant service of Great Britian and from this time forward hostile submarines will probably be used by the enemy in the waters near all the great shipping ports in the endeayor to frighten ship owners to such an extent that the food supply of the na- ton will be placed in serious jeopardy. The people are amazed at the daring displayed by the German vessels in travelling half way around the island of Great Brltlan and Into tue ITS" Sea, right in the route of the great est shipping in the world. The people of this western coast had believed themselves safe from attack so that the raid has been the greatest sensa- tion of the war for this city, Man chester and the other great cities Of the midlands. All the newspapers this morning are calling on the naval authorities for action of the most de- termined kind to free the home of waters of the dangerous enemy.

German forces are said to have joined the Austrians in that quarter recently for the purpose of trying to check the Russian advance as such an advance would be of the most serious kind at the present time. No information has arrived here yet as to the progress of the great battle and it is thought that many days will elapse before a decision can be reached. Owing to the distance of the Russian army at that point from it's bases a defeat might well prove disastrous but for this very reason the Russian general staff is preparing to fight to the last.
