Bitter Feeling Aroused by Killing
Of Guards by Mexicans---
Dead Ranger is Brother
Of Hulen Boys Here
By United Press.

By United Press.
Washington, May 27.--It is admitted
here today that the war department
may have to call on the cavalry to
patrol the border around Pilares, Tex,
as a result of the bitter feeling grow
ing out of the killing of the Texas
rangers and river guards by Mexican
bandits.
According to reports reaching here
fight occurred Monday night be-
tween bandits and river guards in
which two rangers, Gene Hulen and
Joe Setter, were killed.
In addition to the two men killed
the party consisted of Rangers Cum
minis and Trollinger and River Guard
craighead. Whether the Americans
we're attacked in body and became
separated during the fighting or
whether Sitter and HuIen were cut
off by the bandits is not known here.
II is said that in border fights Sitter
hard killed several Mexicans in the
last few years. Ranger Hulen is a
brother of Former Adjutant General
Of Texas John A. Hulen. now resi-
dent OF Houston.

Washington. May 27.-consul Gen
eral Skinner at London cabled to the
state department today that he had
received wireless message from the
Nebraskan saying thht the American
flag was hauled down at dusk just five
minutes before the explosion.
The captain said the vessel expert
enced a violent shock, followed by 2
terrific explosion. bursting the matches
and hurting the derrick, together with
twisted iron and other parts high in
the air.
The crew were off OF the vessel one
hour and then went back to the ship,
which was escorted toward Liverpool
by British vessels.
The captain said he had no warning
Of any attack. The name of the ship
was painted on both sides in six foot
letters.
Germany, in a circular note to neu-
tral governments on May II, announc-
ed that regret would be expressed ana
payment of damages made without
prize court proceedings for all neutral
vessels attacked by mistake in the
war zone. The United States in its
note of May 1s. pointed out that "ex-
pressions OF regret and offers of rep
aration in case of the dstruction OF
neutral ships sunk by mistake, while
they may satisfy international obliga'
tions If no loss of life results, cannot
justify or excuse practice, the nat
ural and necessary effect OF which is
to subject neutral nations and neu'
traI persons to new and immeasure

Douglas Island news., 1915-03-10

It will be interesting to know thal within the past ten years total of s2,831,517 has been expended in Alaska by the board of road com mmissioners for building dirt and wagon roads in the territory. Of this amount s1,50O,00O was appropriated by congress and the balance of sI I,331, ,517 was from the Alas. ka fund paid in by the people of Alaska. This revenue is derived from business and trade licenses outside of incorpo' rated towns.
 If an opinion recently rendered by District Attorney R. F. Roth, of the Fourth division, is approved by the at. torney general of the United States, U. s. commissioners in Alaska will have their perquisites cut to some extent. The district attorney asserts that com missioners in Alaska have no legal right to charge fees for recording vital statistics, collecting poll tox and doing some other duties imposed upon them by the first session of the legislature. It is held by Mir. Roth that the Alaska legislature has no right to pass law requiring people to pay for recording vital statistics, such as birth and death records, and that it has no right further right to impose any fee or expense upon the United States, but if it wants it's recent law made effective it must provide the funds for that purpose. At the same time, it is pointed out by Mir. Roth, that as congress has passed law requiring federal officials to perform certain duties imposed npon them by the local legislature, they must make the records required by the legislature, though they cannot receive pay for them. The opinion of Mir. Roth's will
 have the effect of reducing the income of most of the commissioners of Alaska and it is expected that they will remon- strate against it, provided it is upheld by the attorney-general.- Fairbanks Times.
 Cordova-S. B. Sanderson, a large operator, of the Nizina placer diggings, who has been in town for the past few days, left this morning for Mccarthy, where he will wait for a carload ship ment of machinery which is being shipped him by Harmon & Deever of this city. The shipment contains one Fl. & D. Standard Stead driller, which are being manufactured by them in this city. Mir. Sanderson is a former part ner of Price & Manley, of the IditarOd district, and has been an active oper- ator in Alaska's placer mines since the early rush. For several years he was superintendent of the drilling opera. tions of Iditarod's dredging placers which was done principally with Key. stone machine. He has also operated in the Tanana and Fairbanks districts in this capacity and is an expert driller and is an expert driller and instructor in this method of prospecting placer ground Ia making selection for heavy steam driIler for the Nizina dis. trict he quickly decided upon the pur- chase of the H. & D. Standard in the place of a Keystone, as the H. & D. contains many new and advantageous features over the old style Keystone and has given better success in this class of work. The II. & D. Standard steam driller is an Alaskan manufac- tured product and bears the epigraph "Made in Alaska" It has proved a decided improvement over other ma. chimes where heavy gravel drilling is desired,
