MYSTERY ABOUT RUSSIAN STRIKE
 IN THE TANANA

FAIRBANKS. July SO.-- In special cars yesterday afternoon about l5O Russians arrived from the creeks and many others came in afoot and by other means. The leaders estimate that there are today 800 idle Russian miners In the city making their head quarters at lhe old California saloon, as In Che days of old It Is a lively place though very orderly, the men bowling playing cards, and pool talk ing and palronizing Che bar.
 They are an supplied with money and apparently indifferent Go any worry about the future. They are soidly banded together In fact they are so solidly united that they abso- mtely control every one of their coun- trymen in the camp. A few who did no, wish to leave the works at various points. near Chatanika and on Vault were vigorously hustled along any how against their protests.
 The Russians are unanimous in the statement that they will not return to work on less than an eighthour 80 a day scale. At that they are entirely independent and number of those talked to say they are going outside.
 Two apparent leaders called on the News-Miner this morning and discuss. ed their position They will not work for less than So day for eight hours. They do not expect to get this admitting that the ogorators cannot pay it They are afraid to work for more than eight hours for fear they will be personally arrested and prose cuted They are going to leave the country within the next day or two 1t seems.
 Some expect to SO to the States and some talk of Russia. One of the men at the California this morning told the News-Miner man that most of the men were going cak to the old coun try. but could give no further reason for this than that there was no chance to work here
 is There Rccruitn9f
 From some of the answers given by different Russians at different plac es today recruiting is suspected. which would account for number of uneX plained things. If such should prove to be the case it is clear breach of American neutrality and punisha. ble by severe sentence and heavy fines The United States marshars office is Investigating and is prepared to act One Russian stated that a Russian sloop was waiting on the Pa. cific coast Go convey the men across the ocean but he would give no infor- nation relative to the names of the men who told this and who seem to hold the whole body of them in an iron grasp. He said that to do SO would mean that he would be shot. Nor is he the only one who seems to be afraid to go to the bottom of the recruiting talk Such talk may prove to be idle but it is sure bet that no recruiting officers will ever leave AL aska with these men.
 Amitting as they do that operators cannot pay S5 for eight hours work, on low grade ground now being work ed. it is a strange thing that 300 men should quit in Che middle of the sea- son to go where there is no work pos. sibly that would pay them S4 a day and board to say nothing of travel ing expenses. or back to Russia in war tines Fairbanks News-Miner)

 SEATTLE. Aug. 6.-Officials of the Alaska Steamship Company yesterday were advised that a sweltering heat wave which has extended throughout Southwestern Alaska has caused a great flood on the Copper River valley and heavy damage to the Copper Riv- CT 6 Northwestern railroad.
 Mountain streams and creeks have become raging torrents and the rap- i'd melting of the glaciers and snow has caused the Copper River to over flow its banks.
 Extending from Mile No. 191, on the Copper River & Northwestern railway ten miles of track and roadbed have been destroyed, and all through trains including those hauling copper ore from the Bonanza mine to Cordova, have been taken ou otf service.
 R. w. Baxter. vice president of the Alaska Steamship Company and the Copper River & Northwestern Rail- road Company is on the ground, per sonally experimenting the repairs.
 Unusually mild weather has prevail ed in Southwestern Alaska, according to passengers arriving from the north. Swimming has become popular sport. and 1t is said that the water of Prince William Sound is ten de- grees warmer than that of Elliott bay. 1t is the most unusual weather that the oldest sourdough has experienced in Southwestern Alaska.
 Coming direct from Prince William sound. via Cape Flattery and the out side passage, the Alaska Steamship Company's liner Mariposa reached Se- attle at II o'clock yesterday morning. -(Seattle Post Intelligencer.)

 In resigning the office of associate judge of the. city court, Judge Brown, writing from LaFayettee, Ala, declared that the legislature has in effect said that "the office which I hold is unnecessary, but either out of personal consideration for the present incumbent, or by reason of probable constitutional inhibitions, they will permit me to hold the office and draw the salary until the end of my present term

ILLINOIS CENTRAL
 WILL ENTER MARKET
 SOON, II IS BELIEVED
Order for 10000 Tons of Rails Expected in Next Two Weeks-Inquiry
 From Abroad

The presidents offices of the Illinois to Birmingham yesterday that at this time the officials were unable to con firm the report that the company was in the market for 10000 tons of rails It was implied in the telegram that later on the company would be ill a position to confirm it's rumored err trance into the market for that amount of steel. The order attributed to the Illinois Central would run to $1,2S0, GOO. It is believed that this order will be given to the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company within the next two weeks or 10 days. The company has for many years bought its rails here.
 The intimation from the executive officers yesterday was perhaps the only substantial development of the week as to future rail business for Bir- minghanl. It was stated by the officials of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Rail- road company that no orders other than those announced had been received but it was added that no change in the operating schedule of the steel mill at Ensley would be made at this time The operations are not at the maximum but are sufficient to keep the organi- zation intact.
 In other industries during the week there has been some activity. There was received yesterday by local brokers an inquiry from abroad for 40OO tons of iron, but no deal was consummated. The buyers, it is said, are inclined to bid low and the makers here are not willing to meet offers. The announce ment of improvements by the United States Cast Iron Pipe and Foundry company and also by the Indian Head mills involving very substantial expen- ditures caused favorable comment insin- dustrial circles yesterday.
