PAYR0LL DISTRIBUTED TO
 GASTINEA1 MEN

The biggest payday in the history of the Alaska Gastlneap Mining Com pony was yesterday Over StsO00O was distributed by the cashiers, to $50 men employed. The cheques went to every man employed by the company and were sent to the five camps.
 The next largest payroll was Q year ago, when S125,OOO was paid out for the months work From estimates of officials of the company, 1t is be- ieved the amount paid out will stead ily increase during the summer as heavy construction work in all de-. partments is under way. especially at Annex and Carlson creeks, where power units are being established The doubling of capacity Of the re- duction mills at Thane also will swell the gra0d total paid in tho Sheep Creek division, during the next three or four months.
 Juneau was real busy last evening, hundreds of miners and mill workers coming to town.

ROUMANIA'S ACTION
 WORRYING ITALIANS

ROME. June 1.-The Rome papers and people are absorbed and worried over the question of the possible en- trance of Bulgaria and Roumania in the war There had been firm con viction that Italy had only to declare war against Austria to bring Rouman- 1t. but more than two weeks have passed and Roumania shows no dsi- position to depart from her neutral ity-
 It is explained here that Roumania is still negotiating with Great Britain, France and Russia for recognition of her claims Late advices are that Russia especially is not inclined to give way to what she considers exag- gerated demands. particularly in view of the fact that Italy is now at war. and rhis has already relieved ,hc and Austria pressure, chief ly in Galicia.

AMERICANS CONTINUE
 RUSH FROM BERLIN

BERLIN. June 1.-The one ques- tion heard in this city today in all all quarters is: What will the United States do2~ and What is the sig niacance of Mir Bryan's retirement?"
 In spite of the interest in the ques- ton. however, there is not q morning newspaper in Berlin that refers in any way to the American note this morning, or the fact that 1t has been received. And there Is not a word of comment upon the difficulties with the United States, the resignation of Mir. Bryan or the American situation.
 This silence of the newspapers at a time when the American situation is the matter of greatest interest is admitted of governmental suppress sion, and has tendency to increase the popular anxiety rather than to al lay it.
 Americans here are all ready to leave whenever 1t shall receive the tip that 1t is time to get away, If the situation should develop that far.
 An American dentist told the Unit ed Press representative here yester- day evening that American Consul General Julius G. Lay had just in. formed him that 1t would not be ad- visable for him to make any future dates for patients.
 The immigration clerks at the American embassy have been over worked handling American passports for several days. Practically all of the passports that have been issued have asked for the friendly attention of Danish. Dutch. Swedish, Norwe- gian and Swiss consuls and diplomat ic agents, so that the holders may take any route that seems most avail able in case 1t might be desired to hurry away Numbers claiming the status of American citizens have been refused passports except where the request has come to the embassy from Washington.
 Gerard Gets Note.
 The first sections of the American note were received by Ambassador James W. Gerard late yesterday af- ternoon. and other sections began coming early in the evening. Amoas- sador Gerard will present the note to Foreign Minister yon Jagow today.

INTERNATIONAL PROBLEMS WAIT
 ON GERMANY

WASHINGTON. June 1i - Until Germany's reply to the note of Pres ident Woodrow Wilson, which was de- liyered at Berlin today is received. no additional international prob lems will be pressed for solution.
 Tho protest to the Allies because Of the Interference with American shipping is not yet completed Acting Secretary of State Robert Lansing ad- mitted today that it might not be ready for transmission for some time.
 It is believed that the statement that other international problems will wait upon Germany's action means that a reioinder to the last note in the William F. Frye case will also 80 oyer.

 WASHINGTON, June n. The press Of the country is practically unanimous in praising the Presidents second note to Germany It is re. garded as strong, yet couched in such language as to permit German to ac- cept the American viewpoint without stultincation.
 The Associated Press says that with an unanimity that is in itself ocassioning comment official Wash. ington today joins in praising Presi- dent Wilson's second note on the Lu- sitania incident and interviews with prominent officials and citizens and newspaper editorials from all sec tions of the country demonstrate that the nation is solidly behind him.

 Mir Bryan interpreted the American note to Germany on the submarine warfare, whiho re refused to sign, as conforming to the 4old system Nof dip. lomatic standards Che precedents for which "are written In characters of blood upon almost every page of hu- man history He characterizes him. self as a champion of the new system of persuasion instead of force. and as Q humble follower of the Prince ofI Peace"
