This MORNING
WEATHER GRADUALLY GET
TING WARNER EVERY
DAY FOR A WEEK.

The temperature registered in the
shade in Seward this morning at IL
o'clock was 72 above. 1t was 81 above
at s o'clock this morning but was get-
ting warmer and warmer after II

the time. On the tenth the mercury
went from 50 to &c and "a above, and
on the eleventh it went from Ga to rs
That was yesterday and the chances
are that today will break that record.
1t might be worth while telling out
siders that Seward is like California
just at present. Quite lot of bath
ers sam around in the bay yestel-
day for a considerable time and coats

MORE PARTICULARS OF
HIDDEN TREASURE STORY,
Woman Tells Extraordinary Details
of Tale That Beats Orient
al Brigandage.

QUITMAN, Mo, July 11.-Mrs.
Porter has given out more facts re-
lating to the discovery of the treasure
of ninety thousand dollars which was
evidently taken from the rich cattle
man murdered so many years ago.
She declares that she was compelled
to wash bloody quilt in the dark on
the night after the murder. A broth
er in law of one of the counterfeiters
fearing exposure attempted to muir
der her. Later she married mem
Der of the James gang. A man nam
ed Anderson, a relative of herself,
tried fifteen years later to recover the
treasure but was unable to secure the
guide to the place.

SHIPS BELIEVED IN DANGER.

WASHINGTON, July 12-The British mail steam
ships Howthhead and Baron Napier have been warned to
hunt for bombs which said to have been placed IN
them before leaving port The vessels now on the
ocean, and an occurrence similar to that aboard the Min
nehaha is regarded as not improbable
New Orleans July 12.-Hans Halle who was arrest
ed in December for having bombs in his possession has
been rearrested and will be held until comes that
the Howthhead and Baron Napier are safe. The news
papers received letter signed "Pearce,' who calls HIM
self partner of Holt and tells the papers to watch for

cares that he will finish the work begun by Holt and kill
Morgan and the British ambassador Spring Rice 1t has
been learned in the past day that Holt actually
warned some of the passengers the LuSitania not to
travel on that vessel He made personal appeal to
Frohman the theatrical manager not to take passage
This fact is supposed to clear up the explosion which Oc

FLOTILLA NOW
GETTING READY.
WILL COAL THIS WEEK AT
BREMERTON BEFORE SAIL
ING FOR ALASKA.

SEATTLE, July l2.-The Destroy
er fotilla that will sail to Alaska this
summer will coal this week at Brem-
erton and will probably start out i'm
mediately afterwards. 1t is persist
emily rumored that a site for 4 naval
station will be looked up and no doubt
this is the chief reason for the cruise
but nothing official has been given for
publication on the matter. The itin-
erary of the flotilla has not been
stated but it is safe to say that Sc
ward, being the terminal of the gov
ernmeut railroad, will be included if
it will not be the chief point of call.
Opinion here seems to be that the
cruise is associated directly with the
railroad development.

EXPORTS INCREASED AND
IMPORTS HAVE DECREASED.
The Balance For the Years Trade
Shows in Favor of u. S.
Over a Billion.

WASHINGTON, July 12.-The ex-
ports for the fiscal year increased by
three hundred millions and the i'm
ports decreased by two hundred and
twenty millions. The total balance in
favor of the United States for the
year is one billion and sixty millions.
The exports to Germany from this
country for the year decreased by
ninety per cent but the increased ex-
ports to the allied belligerents and to
neutral countries which are unable TO
import from Germany more than
made up the deficiency.

SHOWS HOW ANCHORAGE
GETS INTO SHAPE.
Cook Inlet Pioneer Gives Items Which
Indicate How the COmmun-
al Life is Developing.

Reading the latest issue Of the
Cook Inlet Pioneer, that of July 10,
one is enabled to see by reading be
tween the lines the manner in which
the communal life of Anchorage is
developing. Rev. Blackwell was to
have held a religious meeting in the
open air yesterday. Rev. Molony was
also to hold service in the govern
ment social hall. The members of
the Eagle lodges of various places
now residing in Anchorage held
meeting last Thursday and appointed
committees to prepare for the estab-
lishment of lodge. Twenty-six
Elks held a meeting on Wednesday
evening for a like purpose. The
members of the Moose order held
meetings on Thursday and Friday
evenings and are preparing to secure
a site for a building. Several mem
bers of Seward lodge, No. 1925, were
amongst those present. One Of the
first marriages, if not the very first,
was solemnized by Judge David on
July 4th when Mr.. Robert Speck and
Mrs. Ida Walsh were made man and
wife. The Fourth was celebrated by
baseball game, athletic sports, wrest-
ling matches and dancing. In the
baseball game Anchorage beat Knik
10 to 8. Knik also held fine cele-
bration on the Fourth. The piece de
resistance was baseball game be-
tween the ladies of Knik and the lad
les of Anchorage. At the end of the
fifth inning the score was 10 to 10 and
it was decided to call the struggle a
draw.

SEWARD FIRE OR
QUEER ILLUSION,

IDITAROD. An interesting dew
elopment in connection with the Sc
ward fire is reported from the Up
grade mine, at the head Of Flat creek.
AT about 1 o'clock on Tuesday morn
ing last the men employed there were
surprised to see in the southeast a
conAagration of great extent, the
flames from which seemed to shoot at
least fifty feet in the air. At first it
was thought that IditarOd was on fire,
but it was soon realized that the fire
was in a different direction.
1t was then agreed that it must have
been a mirage. The night crew re-
ported the incident to the day crew,
and it was the subject of discussion
throughout the day. Late in the at
ternoon the news of the destructive
fire at Seward was received, and the
boys are quite confident now that the
fire seen by them was that which
created so much havoc in the coast
city.-PiOneer.

HIGHEST ANCHORAGE
LOT GOES TO Sl,l5O

bing of the entire townsite, as some
timid folks had professed to dread as
a possibility.
1t was a serious-minded crowd that
attended this sale. There was little
hilarity attending the bidding, al
though occasionally some fellow
would be heard induIging in good
natured comment upon the price paid
by some successful bidder But as a
whole, the buyers were evidently men
intent upon business which they were
not divulging to their numerous
chance acquaintance Anchorage
certainly got off to a good start on
its new homesite.
The first successful bidder was a
former Minnesota general merchand-
ising man named L. o. Nyberg, a re-
cent conner to the Territory. He pro
poses entering business on his lot, the
first one put under the auctionecr's
hammer, and which is at the corner Of
what is officially Fifth and c. streets.
Nyberg paid $S25 fo~ bis lot, which
was appraised at $4OO. All the lots
sold are 50 by 14O feet to 20 feet al
leys. Streets all have a uniform width
of 60 feet The highest price paid
for single lot was $l,l5O. This lot
was lot Z in block 26 The following
list shows the prices paid for the first
dozen lots sold in what has been des-
ignated as the business district, to-
gether with the lot and block number,

u. S. is ARMING
THE EUROPEANS
SELLS FOUR HUNDRED PER
CENT MORE FIREARMS
THAN EVER BEFORE.

WASHINGTON, July 12.-The
United States sold four hundred per
cent more firearms this year than in
any normal year on record. The
great sale is of course, due to the
war in Europe. The factories now
find it exceeding hard to fill all the
orders from the belligerents in spite
of the fact that factories which had
been used for other purposes have
been converted for the making Of
weapons of destruction. Some of the
irearm manufacturing firms have
made untold fortunes and are making
more and more as the war proceeds.

The number of workers affected by
the strike is one hundred and sixty
thousand Of all the trades connected
with the trouser making business.
The workers asked for higher wages
or higher prices for piece work.

GOVERNOR TO
Be WELCOMED
COMMERCIAL CLUB AND CITY
COUNCIL WILL TAKE STEPS
TO RECEIVE HIM.

A reception will be rendered to
Governor Strong and Mrs. Strong on
their arrival here but the exact form
which the welcoming will take has
not been decided upon. The Com
mercial Club will take steps before
the arrival of the Victoria to be rep
resented in the welcome and the city
council will take up the matter this
evening at the meeting. The best
suggestion that has been made is
that the Santa Ana ought to run ou;
to meet the Victoria and carry COM
mittees as we'll as all the citizens who
would care to go. By running the
steamer out as an excursion boat lots
of people would probably be glad to
pay fare that would meet the ex-
penses if that were required. 1t is
likely that the Victoria will not stay
here more than very few hours and
it would hardly do to bore the visitors
with long drawn out ceremony or
entertainment. A special steamer
going out with colors flying and band
playing would beat anything in the
shape of speeches or stereotyped for
malities.

HUNTING PARK BANDITS,

LIVINGSTON, July 12.-Officers
from three states are now seeking
the bandits who robbed the crowd or
tourists in Yellowstone Park. The
holdups got away without leaving a
trace. Some of the victims are in
clined to belittle the value of the
articles taken from them and it is dir
ficult to arrive at fair estimate but,
considering the number robbed, the
amount must have been large.

ANCHORAGE, July 1O.-Uncle
Sans debut as an auctioneer in town
site lots in Alaska was made here
this afternoon and was attended by
undeniable success. Bidding was real
ly lively and prices were raised by
bidders in the crowd of upwards OF
1900 people, from two to three times
the appraisement made by the Gov
ernment's agents. A total of about
$4,000 was received from the sale Of
the first 45 lots.
A Christensen, of the General
Land Office, conducted the sale and
ofiiciated as auctioneer. The pro-
ceedings were conducted out in the
open air on the present unofficial
townsite, near the new railroad
tracks. The auctioneer and his clerks
who kept the official record of the
sales, were located upon a temporary
frame platform, while the bidder
and interested spectators stood
grouped about them.
Christensen made an extended ad-
dress, explanatory of the sale and Of
the Governments plans in connection
with the construction of the railroad
from Seward to Fairbanks, without
the injectment OF any new informa-
ton on this already widely discussed
national project. He was given the
closest attention of the crowd, which
appeared to be in a general good
humor There were no signs of the

indication of the appearance Of agents
of any syndicate intent upon grab

CONSULT ON GERMAN REPLY.

WASHINGTON, July 12-Lansing has decided to go
to Cornish consult President Wilson with respect to
the reply of Germany to the American protests and de
mands BernStorf, the German ambassador, has made
an offer to assist Lansing by every in his power in
the attempt to reach way of coming to under
standing The officials think that Wilson will refuse his
consent to mark American boats with some distinctive
sign as suggested by the Berlin government but there is
feeling that the friendly tone of the notes exchanged
between the two governments indicates mutual desire
for an amicabIe adjustment.
