BATTLE RACES
 AROUND YPRES
BRITISH AND GERMANS AGAIN LOCKED IN DEADLY
 COMBAT.

AMSTERDAM, August 4.-The British and Germans are again locked in deadly combat around Ypres and one of the fercest battles of the western campaign is said to be pro- ceeding without, however, any definite advantage having been gained by either side. The Germans are report ed to have opened the attack although their tremendous operations in the eastern theatre make it unlikely that they are attempting anything big on the west front and the other part of the line is probably quiet. The allies have apparently come to the conclus- ion that the Germans are strong enough in the west to withstand a half hearted attack notwithstanding their campaign around Warsaw and the British and French are believed to be waiting either for reinforce ments or for munitions.
The Seward gateway., 1915-08-05

LONDON, August IA dispatch has arrived today stating that the Austro-Germau forces have not yet entered Warsaw and that bloody fighting is still proceeding around the great city. The most desperate strug- gle of all is reported to be raging at Wyszkow on the river Bug, just to the northeast of the capital The bat tlefeld is about thirty miles from Warsaw itself and from there the Germans evidently intend to break through the right Russian flank of the force still holding the capital so that they might cut off the retreat
 The main railroad running from War saw and by which the Russians eN- pect to make its chief retreating movement is only ten miles from Wyszkow to the south, and the cap ture of that railroad is uuQuestjon-

ACCUSE TURKS
 OF AWFUL DEED
PARIS CABLE SAYS THEY DROVE 5000 WOMEN AND
 CHILDREN INTO RIVER.

PARIS, August 4.-The most awful. massacres and the most brutal that. perhaps, have ever been recorded are now taking place in Armenia where the Turks have set out with an abso- lute freedom to slaughter the unpro- tected Christians in the region of Bitlis. Thousands of the victims were first shot and their bodies thrown in the river but the most horrible of all the acts of which the Turks are ac- cused is the driving into the Tigris of nine thousand women and children. From all accounts it is evident that the Turks have come to the conclusion that no European power is in posi- tion to interfere with them and they have given full rein to the centuries old desire to destroy the Christian populations of all parts of the Turk ish dominion.

To Cut on Petrograd.

PETROGRAD, August 4.-Fresh German armies numbering not less than a third of a million are now battling to gain possession of the railroad between Warsaw and Petro- grad to cut oly the Russian armies as they retreat. Those new forces have marched from the north, and the plans of the enemy have now become very clear. When the invasion of the Baltic provinces was undertaken by the Germans it was supposed that lhcir intention was merely to secure possession of those provinces because they contain a large German popula- ton, but it is now evident that the GaGcian campaign and the Baltic campaign were all connected move

ERIE, Pa, August "A cloud burst which occurred over this section of the country last night killed thirty people and destroyed an almost in- calculable quantity of property. The wreckage in places in this city is seventy feet in height and water covers the streets of the business dis tricts for depth of five feet. Great damage was also inflicted in the cities of Meadville, Richmond, Detroit and Toronto, Canada. The full particu- lars have not yet been received from the different places visited and it is feared that the loss of life may be greater than is known at present.

CHENA TOWNSHIP CANCELLED AS ORIGINAL SURVEY
 NOT COMPLETED.

FAIRBANKS, August 1.-The last mail from the land office department gives notice that the Cinema townsite has been cancelled and that, in conse- quenco, it will revert to the govern ment. The reasons given by the de- partment are that the original sur veys of the townsite had never been completed and that the people showed no disposition to perfect their rights. There is a disposition here now to be- Iieve that the withdrawal of the town site is connected in some manner with the governments intentions with re- gard to the railroad terminal.
 A jury has found that Charles Lindstrom, who was found dead seven miles above Chatanika, committed suicide. Death was due to shooting through the head.

 Some men have been arrested for the murder of Mrs. Rowe at Olnes and the preliminary hearing will take place Wednesday. It is stated that one of the suspects has confessed the crime and since that it is given out on good authority that the story of the confession has been coroborated. However, the coils are being drawn more closely and that the guilty party or parties will soon be convicted is certain. The woman was unquestion- ably murdered for the money which she was known to have on her per son. She was well known and the feeling because of her murder is very deep.

BRITISH ADVERTISE IN

CHICAGO, August 1.-The British government is now advertising for skilled mechanics in the American newspapers. The mechanics are off, cred contracts for six months and free transportation as well as good wages and large numbers of men will probably take advantage of the offer although the manufacturing of war supplies in this country has now giv- en employment to extra thousands of skilled workers. The mechanics in- vited by Great Britain are wanted for the new factories which have been established to increase the manufact- ure of the war supplies which the al- lied nations so badly need, even ac- cording to their own admission.

RUSSIAN PRIEST
 AT SANAK RETIRES.
Items of News and Comments From Correspondent to West
 ward.

SANAK, July PIP. F. Nielsen made a business trip to King Cove last week. Mr. Nielsen has had marked success with his dairying this season. He has found a ready market for his butter of which he has made nearly half a ton Besides the butter produced Mir. Nielsen has a bunch of calves that would be a credit to any stock country.
 Mr. and Mrs. Charlie OIatson, form CT residents of the island but who have been absent for some years, have returned to Sanak to make their home. For the present they are oc- cupying Mr. Grosvold's house. Mrs. Matson is a sister of Mrs. Gus Holm berg.
 Paul Hanson and Miss Julia Shelli- koF, popular young people of the island, were married by Rev. A. Eedrovsky July 18th.
 Neither the cod fishing nor the salmon fishing has been quite up to average this season much to the dis appointment of both packers and fishermen.
 Rev. Alexander Kedrovslly and family leave this month for Russia. Father Kedrovsky has served his church for the past fourteen years in Alaska and now retires to Russia on a pension.
 Mrs. Katie Hanson, and nephew, Ben Mobeck, made trip to Unalaska on the July Santa Ana.
 The people of Sanak have finally acquired the habit of saying, "When the mail boat comes" instead of If the mail boat cOmes." Lack of con fdence is a terrible thing whether it is relative to a president, a monetary system, a boom or a mail boat, and we  sincerely hope that our new born confidence will continue to thrive.
 How often it is borne home to us that there is no ointment without its fly. We were "tickled to death" when Washingon went dry, when the local macula barrels went dry and when the Santa Ana went dry, but now that Gus Holmberg's well has gone dry, or is in the process of going" We are asking ourselves if all this dryness IS what it is cracked up to be after all.

UNITED STATES WILL ASK CO., OPERATION OF SOUTHERN
 REPUBLICS FOR PURPOSE.

WASHINGTON, August 4.-on September a meeting will take place which will mark a new era in the re- lations of all the governments of the American continent and may be the forerunner of a permanent treaty of all the republics of North and South America for their mutual protection and advancement. The ostensible purpose of the meeting will be to ask the cooperation of the South Ameri- can republics with the United States in the effort to restore peace in MeXi- co. This effort has probably for it's main idea the prevention of lasting hatred between the people of this country and the people of Mexico, a hatred which might well cause tNo illustration of the plans for the great Pan-American peace combina- ton.

He has appealed from the judgment of the court and the matter is expected to deveIope in- to a controversy of national interest.

GERMAN BANKS
 GOT BULGARIA.
ASSUMED HER INDEBTEDNESS TO KEEP HER OUT OF
 THE WAR.

BERLIN, August At was an nounced today that the German banks assumed the indebtedness of Bulgaria and that thus she was kept from en- tering the war against the Teutouic Allies. The indebtedness amounted to fifty millions but the price paid was considered small compared to the effect which Bulgaria might have ex- ercised on the attempt of the allies to reach Constantinople. The defeat of Russia in GaIicia served as a de- ciding factor in keeping not only the Bulgarians but all the other Balkan states not already engaged out of the war but the work of the German banks held the Sofia government dur ing dangerous period.
