MORALES. Ariz.. Aug. 15.-Mad- dened by the pompous attitude of several Mexican officers and a mum. Der of men who were on the Ameri- can side of the line here today. a bunch of Arizona COW punchers started a riot which threatened for a time to end seriously. The riot was caused by the reported murder of an American at Reprisal, the cowboys taking exception to the defiance expressed by the attitude of the MeXicans in crossing the line. when the country in this yicin- ity was aroused 10 such a pitch by the report
 Hardly had the cowboys started the row when they were joined by hundreds of rioting American resi- dents of this city, who were ou. waiting for someone to lead off, The trouble had been brewing for some time, but the rioters were held in check by reason of the knowledge that body of American troops which was sent here to quell just such disturbance. is encamped near here.
 When the riot was first started against the MeXicans the latter made a dignified stand, the officers expressing themselves as confident that they would be protected by the American soldiers. Finally someone shouted, Run the greasers out and scatter before the soldiers interfere" and the riot resulted.

SOUTHEAST DOES
 INCREASED BUSINESS,

During the year 1914, the total value of the merchandise shipped to Southeastern Alaska was $11,075,- 532. This year the statement shows that it will be almost twice that sum. This is accounted for princi- pally by the reason of the increased mining activity in the vicinity of Juneau. The several large compan- ies working there are employing more men than ever before, are handling more provisions and greater quantities of machinery.

SOUTHERN ALASKA BUSINESS BRISK.

In southern Alaska, in the Third Judicial division, the commercial activity has been brisk, due to several reasons In and around Val dez, several copper properties, which were shut down for time, started operations again on a larger scale. and were handling more goods of all kinds
 The great copper mines along the Copper River & Northwestern rail road are working overtime in sup plying war orders Big crews of men are employed which necessar fly means large shipments of grub. clothes and other provisions. The importation of machinery to these properties is also larger than for several years.
 Farther west, in the vicinity of Seward, Cook Inlet and Anchorage, there has been such an influx of people that the provision men of the States are reaping harvest. In addition to that. the material shipped for the use of the Alaskan Engineering commission, in connec- tion with the construction of the railroad, has swelled the trade of the Territory.
 In addition to these new and In creased markets, there are several caIIneries on the coast which have increased their capacities and em ployed more men. Their importa- tions have been larger than before

BIG BATTLE GOING ON.

ROME, Aug. 15.-Dispatches re- ceived here during the past few hours from the Austro- Italian frontier ln- dicate that big battle Is soon to be fought in the vicinity of the Italian town of Cadore. The Italians are gathered there in force waiting for orders to advance against the Austrian trenches, which are now being shelled.
 The Austrians are replying to the fire of the Italian artillery, but seemingly with very little effect, as the number of casualties report ed here is very small. In fact, the battle has assumed the proportions of an artillery duel, neither side showing signs of weakening.

ROME, Aug 15.-Advices received here from the front indicate that one of the most decisive battles of the war between this country and Austria Hungary, is now being fought on the frontier. Both the Italian and Austrian armies are endeavor- ing to occupy Lana Pass, one of the very few passes through the Alps, and the battle raging there, according to the report received here, is fearful, many men having continued bayonet charges. Detach- ments of soldiers from both armies have occupied the pass at different times, only to be driven out by their foes. The pass is so narrow that it is physically impossible for more than few soldiers to go through it at one time, and it is absolutely impossible for artillery or cavalry, unless their passage is unhindered. Lana Pass has an alti- tude of 10000 feet.
 It is also reported here that the Italian forces have met with repulses in their attempts to take the Austrian Actresses of Gorizia and Tolmine. It was thought that they could easily be captured by the use of heavy artillery, but they are proving to be much stronger than was anticipated, and the battle in their vicinity has developed into an artillery duel. the stormine troops of the Italians having been driven to a safe distance by the craftsmanship of the Austrian ar tillerists.

PAN AM ERICAN PEACE PLANS.

WASHINGTON. D. C., Aug. 15.-- A report on the Pan-American peace in-Mexico deliberations was publish ed here today. It is in the nature Of an appeal to all of the warning factions of Mexico to lay down their arms and combine under one head for the good of the country and the people in general, concluding the statement that ruinous conditions now exist in the Mexican republic as a result of the revolutions which have prevailed since Porfirio Dia2 was busted from the presidency by the Maderistas.
 The appeal contained no hint of armed intervention. It urges a meeting of all Mexican leaders on neutral ground, the purpose of the meeting to be the formation of plans for the constitutional reconstruction of Mexico. It also urges that i'm mediate election take place as soon as the plans have been agreed upon by all parties concerned.
 Asked by newspaper men how they expected their plans to come out in the event that General Car ranza refused to submit to the de cision of the peace congress, several South American diplomats expressed themselves in favor of proceeding with the peace negotiations without him. It is understood here that General Carranza has declared that he will be able to settle the differ ences of the factions in Mexico with out outside aid and it is therefore expected that he will refuse to enter into the plans of the peace con gress,

New Road to Elk River

We have just received word that a
survey for wagon road from here
to Elk River is under way and that,
that section is promised an outlet
toward the Clearwater over a new
wagon road. The news is generally
welcomed, as at present there is nc

from there is mostly made over trails.
Though it is possible to drive to Elk

journey and good road through that

many settlers.

commissioners, through Nease, at an
expense of $50, OOO., are shown to be
worth $101,621, are in fact worth
$1S1, 479. Of course when he did
prove this he would give the lie to
the Nease cruise.
We believe that the Nease cruise
is, as matter of fact, worth little
as criterion of values, but when
democratic administration afflicted the
county with it the Tribune should be
the last to swat it in the eye. No
one familiar with the facts can doubt
that the N. P. would have won its
case against the county, and it would
have been some time before any set
tlement could have been had. When.
therefore, the company offered a
compromise on the basis of valua-
tion of $l53, s96.50, as against the
Nease valuation of 1,621, and the
company's valuation Of $l26,314,
probably no sane man except the
editor of the Tribune would have
hesitaed to accept it.
The article in the Tribune con-
cludes "Has the Clearwater Republi-
can had a virtuous spasm over the
reduction of N. P. taxes? Hardly.
Pestiferous Pete is on the job for a
different purpose, and the day is not
distant when murder will out in
these matters.
If the Tribune should have spasm
of horse sense, it would surprise the
public and possibly run it's own busi-
ness little more successfully.
