ARMY AND NAVY WILL COMBINE IN DARDANELLES
 ATTACK.
NOBRITISHAMM.UNITIO
KITCHENER URGES GOVERN MENT TO SEND SUPPLIES
 AT ONCE.

LONDON, March 24.-British troops and also, probably French forces are now being landed on the Gallipoli peninsula between the gulf of Sayos and the Dardaneles and will cooperate with the allied fleet in the attack on the remaining forts The weather is moderating and the bonn bardment will likely be resumed to- day but it is believed that the British lack ammunition there and elsewhere. 1t is known that Kitchener has declar- ed thpt the British armies are short of ammunition and that this fact handicaps them in their operations. He is urging the government to keep up the supply even 1t the expense of everything else. How much the oper- ations of the fleet are affected by this lack is not known as Kitchener alludes to the supply of the army almost en- tirely The shortage IS supposed to be due to the unprcparedness Of this country to equip so great an army at such short notice. It is learned that the difficulty of getting out equip ment and ammunition IS far more than that of supplying men. Rus sia is said to be suffering from a simi- lar drawback but the opening of the Dardanelles is expected to give her the opportunity to secure full sup plies. Not only is the shortage noticeable in ammunition but in war munitions generally. Turkey is said to be gathering a large army to op- pose the allied field forces and the battles for the possession of Constan- tinople will be tremendous ones m- jess all signs fail. It is reported but not officially that two more British super-dreadnaughts have been sent to reinforce the fleet bombarding the Dardanelles.

It is assumed that Mrs Randolph committed the murder in a fit of jealous rage on discovering the facts that brought about the divorce She has made no statement yet re- garding the affair.

No one in Seattle any longer doubts that Seward is fixed upon as the term inal of the government railroad. This is the statement of Ed.

He says that the recent reports from Washington private and public, have absolutely convinced the business people outside that the question has been settled in our favor.

In a letter from Colonel A. w.

He says he has no idea as to the intentions of the government with respect to the building but he wodld certainly favcr the building of the road through this place, to Mat anuska, into Broad Pass and on to Nenana. He also favors as second choice the Cordoya route.

CONFIRMING ON
 CONSUL AFFAIR
GERMAN AMBASSADOR TAKES UP MUELLER'S ARREST
 AT SEATTLE.

WASHINGTON, March 23.-The German ambassador and the counsel Tor of the United States department of state are now conferring on the arrest of the German consul, Mueller, at Seattle. It is stated officially that the report of the searching of a Ger man steamer at Seattle is without foundation. The statement that the steamer was searched was made by Mir. Mueller himself and it seems to be apparent that he acted hastily in that matter. It is felt here that the accusation against the consul of con spring to bribe employees of the ship building company will be drop ped.

PERSIA STARTS
 THE HOLY WAR
AMERICAN CONSUL AT TELLS CONFIRMS THE
 REPORT.
TO GIVE AID TO TURKS
SERIOUS DEVELOPMENT or AF- FAIRS Is NOW AS
 SURED.

WASHINGTON, March 24.-The American consul at TidiS, in Trans Caucasia. officially confirms the report that the PersianS have risen in holy war against the christians and especi- ally against Russia in the effort to throw off the christian yoke placed on Persia by the Russian empire. He al so states that thousands of christians have fled to his consulate from the Turkish and Persian Mohammedau ad- vance and that the most serious con sequences may come from the new development. Persia has population of ten millions and is three times the size of France in area so that its entry into the war may we'll mean an important aid to Turkey in it's war against Russia. According to the re port by the American consul at Tiflis the uprising of the Persians is rather against the christians than against Russians particularly although Rus sia is hated because of its enforced suzerainty over the country. The proximity of Persia to India is re- garded as a serious menace as it may have the effect of creating an upriS- ing of the Indian Mohammedans. The British forces which have been operating at the head of the Persian gulf may also be endangered by a flank attack by the Persians who can march to the British positions on the Tigris with comparative ease.

LONDON, March 24.-British aero planes attacked a German submarine at Hoboken on the river Scheldt near Antwerp yesterday and dropped sev- eral bombs with such accuracy that the submarine was badly damaged. The discovery of the submarine at that place goes to show that the Ger mans intend to use the Scheldt as a submarine base although it is evident that they cannot reach the open sea from the river without violating Dutch neutrality,

CAPTAIN WHO TRIED TO STEAL FROM PORTO RICO MAY

WASHINGTON, March 24.-The German steamer Odenwald which tried to steal out to sea will probably be hbelled by the United States gov ernment and her captain will likely be prosecuted for attempting to get away without any clearance papers. Two American destroyers have been order cd to guard the Odenwald to prevent her from trying again to reach the open ocean. Her effort to steal away makes it almost sure that she was on the way to take supplies to some Ger man cruiser that is proving on allied shipping.

POTOSI STORES BURGLED.

The A. Thomas store and the L.
ID. Renecke meat market, of Potusi,
were broken into and robbed on Mon
day night of last week. Entrance to
the Thomas store was made by break
ing into the warehouse through a
window. From the warehouse a hole
was cut through the hoard partition
between the warehouse and store.
The store was ransacked and about
$500 taken from a desk besides
merchandise of considerable value. The
entrance to the butcher shop was
gained by the intruders removing a
pane of glass from the rear door.
The cash register was opened here
and about $1,000 taken. Blood
hounds were brought from Richland
Center and put on the scent. They
carried it as far as the Potosi rail-
road station but there the trail was
lost. The Potosi merchants have got
their Irish "up and if any parties are
caught in deeds of this kind, they
will meet with full punishment.
