q CANNOT ANSWEP" KRAUSE
 REPLY MRS. CHRISTIE
From the Juneau Emnirel


 Mrs. William Christie of Dou- glas, whose husband Edward Krause is accused of Kidnapping and then murdering, perhaps is the only per son to interview Krausc at the fed eral jail outside of his guard and counsel. Mrs. Christie says she asked Krause; What did you do with Christie 2" '"F cannot tell vou'' Krause replied "Why did you take him away?" Mrs. Christie asked again. q canot tell you.a Krause replied The woman who was de- prived of her husband less than three weeks after she was married. implored Krause to tell her what he had done with her husband, but the answer was always tho same.
 The slight shaft of suspicion which was aimed at Mrs. Christie when her husband was lured away from Treadwell was due to the fact that her name had been linked with that of Krause, as an "affair." in which Krause was the wooer. But when Mrs. Christie appeared in the Commissioners court last week at krause's hearing, she banished inn mediately in the opinion of all those who saw herl, any suspicion that in the Krause case she was nothing more than good, hard-worling woman who wanted to know what had become of her husband, and who asked nothing but that justice be done.
 Kazis Krauczunas, counsel for Krause, left for Seattle Sunday, and does not expect to return until after January 1. He said he would at that time press the appeal to the district court from the decision of Commissioner Marshall who sent enced Krause to year on q charge of ifnpersonating an of ficer.

Berlin-(By wireless to London)-
April 3O.-The following official state
ment was issued last night from the
headquarters Of the general staff:
Reports from the Dardanelles pay
tribute to the bravery and enthusiasm
of the Turkish troops. In the first
battle at Kun Kale the Turks did not
fire shot but repulsed the enemy
with the bayonet.
Forty warships bombarded Seddul
Bahr While this battle was in pro-
gress the Turks captured large
quantity of rifles and ammunition.
"At Gallipoli the Turks fought unin-
terruptedly for two days against the
constant attack Of the enemy without
showing fatigue.
"On the eastern and western fronts
the situation, generally speaking, is
unchanged. In Russian Poland and
the Carpathians there have been lively
artillery duels in which our fire was
very effective. In the Opor valley the
enemy after many hours Of artillery
fire vainly attempted night advance
against the heights held by our in
fantry."

DISCRIMINATION
IN RATES CHANGED
SIOUX CITY PACKERS SAY NEW
TARIFFS WILL BE TO ADvAN-
TAGE OF CHICAGO.

Chicago, April 30.-Protest against
increased freight tariffs on packing
house products as they would affect
Sioux City, Iowa, were offered today in
the western freight rates hearing by
w. H. Benn, traffic manager of the
Sioux City Stock Yards Co.
What we wish is fair basis of
transportation rates." said Mr.. Benn,
$50 that we can have q reasonable
share of the competitive business with
Chicago, st. Paul and Omaha.
Most of the stock slaughtered at
Sioux City comes from the northwest,
whence the average distance to Sioux
City is ASP miles less than to Chicago.
For that additional haul Chicago pays
1877 cents hundred pounds on cattle;
1876 on hogs and 1876 on sheep, or from
5 to cents per car mile. On the pack
ing house products shipped from Sioux
City to Chicago we pay to 13 cents
per car mile.
1--WE contend that the proposed in.
crease Of 31a cents hundred on pack
ing house products with no correspond
ing increase in the live stock rates
would not be fair to Sioux City"
The witness added that the proposed
advance would also be detrimental to
Sioux City in competition with Omaha
and st. Paul concerns.
