FIRE CITY ATTORNEY.

VALDEZ-City Attorney Charles G. Ganty has been fired by the city council. The council notified the city attorney. who draws down S25.OO a month. that a spirit of retrenchment had suddenly taken possession of them and that his head must come off, so that the taxpayers be not called upon for too great a sacrifice.
 The action of the council became known yesterday when the city attor- ney received a formal notice of his dismissal.
 Much speculation has been caused by the announcement. Friends of Ganty, who is also clerk of the school board. insist that the action of the council was taken following the re- fusal of the attorney to accept city warrants in payment for school sal ries. Others insist that the retrench- ment plan is buncomb and that ic IS planned to put Oliver Perry Hubbard of Hubbardville, in the position at an increased salary and failing to do that then the aforesaid attorney will be hired for any special work that the city may require.-(PrOspector)

GALLIPOLI FRONT
 SWEPT BY BLIZZARD
WINTER PROVING TO BE SEVERE TEST FOR TURKS AND
 AUSTRALIANS.

London.-Winter in the Dardanelles is proving to be a severe test for the Australians and Turks alike. Reuters corresoondent at this front reports that the first blizzard of early Decem. Der found the Turks unprepared. It was necessary for them to evacuate several positions, as the trenches were flooded
 The bodies of several Turkish sol d1ers and many dead mules were washed into allied trenches. Prisoners taken by the Australians were poorly clad and, the correspondent says, re- ported the Turkish troops were on half rations.
 The colonial troops, including the Maoris from New Zealand, withstood the cold, although many of them had never seen snow before The British authorities believe that owing to their hardy physique and excellent equip ment the eolonials will get through the winter satisfactorily.
 Turkish activities recently have been comparatively unimportant. Such attacks as have been made have not been pushed. Severe weather is expected through January and Feb. ruary.

IT IS ALLEGED GERMANS OR eANlzED ON COAST TO DE-
 STRoY MUNITIoN PLANTS.
v0N BRINCKEN IMPLICATED
The Affidavit Declares Money Was Ordered by Bopp to Destroy Cana dian Pacific Property, to Be
 Paid When Completed.

Providence, R. I.-The Providence Journal prints the text of an affida- vit made by Johannes Henrykus von Koolbergen in San Francisco, August 27 last This affidavit goes into evi- denee with regard to an alleged or ganized German conspiracy on the Pacific coast with the object of blow ing up muntion plants, on which in dietments have been returned by Federal grand jury in San Francisco against Baron George Wilhelm von Brincken, c. c. Crowley and Mrs. Mar garet Cornell. The affidavit asserts that Franz Bopp, German consul gen. eral at San Francisco, supervised the activities of Koolbergen and directed the attempt to hire him to blow up tunnels on the Canadian Pacific rail- road in May
 The affidavit declares that Bopp or dered the money for this work, $1,50O, to be paid to Koolbergen under the impression that the work had been accomplished when Bopp was misled Oy SdAduldn dCluC OluCldlS WOTKIDR in conjunction with Koolbergen, who caused stories to be inserted in the Canadian papers telling of the de- struction of important tunnels by mysterious accidents.
 The affidavit declared that Baron von Brincken, Bopp's assistant in the San Francisco consulate, worked out all the details of the plot, and that he and Bopp went over maps of the Canadian Pacific railway in the con sulate and directed him where to blow up the tunnels where they would in- terfere most with the transportation of munitions of war
 The affidavit says Koolbergen was instructed to steal the dynamite from construction camps on the Canadian Pacific, the location of which was outlined to him by Bopp and Brinck- en.

GEN. SIR DOUGLAS HAle HAS BEEN APPOINTED HIS
 SUCCESSOR.
CHANGE WAS OFTEN TINTED
Relieved Commander Becomes chiet of the Armies in United kinodon May Be Other Changes in the
 Supreme British Command.

London.-Field Marshal Sir tfohr French, who, at his own request bae been relieved of the command of tho British forces in France and Flanders has been succeeded by Gen. Sir Dopq. las Haig. Since the landing of inc expeditionary force, Sir Douglas Haig has commanded the first army, and has been repeatedly mentioned in dis. patches by his chief.
 Sir John French becomes com. mander-in-chief of the armies Tn tha United Kingdom, and for his ls months service at the front has been created viscount of the United King. dom.
 Sir Douglas Haig is nine years younger than his former chief and won his spurs as cavalry officer His first commission was in the Seventh Hussars.. He saw service in the Sou. dan, Indian and African wars. he was chief staff officer to Sir John French during the Colesburg opera, tions when the British cavalry had a oliiSute eesoh III u ylh6 tO 1Ouuu LID the Boer commanders Later he was given command of a group of columns and after the South African war was made inspector general of cavalry in India
 After a few years of staff duty Tn England he became chief Of staff in [ndia and at the outbreak of the war was general commanding officer at AldershoL. From there he took the first army to France
 That there might be a change in the supreme British command on the Western front had been hinted for some time These hints increased with the recent appointment of Gen. eral Joffre as commander in chief of the French army.
 That the elevation of General Jof- ire had no bearing on the substitution of General Haig for Field Marshal French was announced by Premier As. quith Sir Edward Andrew Cornwall asked the government for information as to whether General Joffre's ap- pointment would necessitate any im- portant changes in the higher com mands of the British force. The pre- mier declined to answer.

Jobs For Fair Guards.

San Francisco.-Munition factories in the East have offered to employ every member of the Panama Pacific exposition force of 300 guards, accord ing to Capt. Edward Carpenter of the coast artillery corps, commanding the guards, on detached service. The Westinghouse Electric and Manufac- turing Company telegraphed an offer to employ all available guards at in- creased pay. Nine accepted. About 50 left few days ago for powder plants on the Pacific coast.

Canary Breeders Quit.

Berlin.-The business of the canary breeders of the Harz mountains has been almost utterly destroyed by the war. Tens of thousands of canaries were exported yearly to America, France, Eng. .and and Russia. The war has stopped this, and the domestic trade is almost completely at stand- still. Practically all the breeders have already abandoned the business.

DANIELS OUTLINES
 NAVY PROGRAM
WOULD SPEND HALF BILLION DOLLARS IN THE NEXT
 FIVE YEARS.

hington.-Details of the half billion dollar navy building program under the five-year continuing plan recommended to Congress are con tained in the annual report of Secre- tary Daniels, made public. The re- port shows that for the first time h the history of the department the sec retary's recommendations increase the expenditures proposed by the general board In this connection the secretary says:
 My recommendation of a fye-year program embraces the same number as proposed by the general board in the distribution it made in the five year program of dreadnought, battle cruisers, scouts and destroyers. l rec ommend S5 coast submarines as against 58 recommended by the gen. eral board. For additional reserve ammunition, my recommendation IS 25,000,000, whereas the general board recommends $11,000,000. They rec ommend something more for other craft. My total for the five years is S502, 2,4S2,214. The general boards to- tai is $499, ,876, ,000, a very slight differ enee for the five years, though the boards recommendation for the first year is much larger than the depart ment's estimate.
 The five-year program for new ships and completion of those already au- thorized reaches a grand total of S502,- 4S2,214, with large appropriations for reserve ammunition and aviation.
 "The general board was called upon for advice in this connection, and the department has accepted it's recom- mendations as regards numbers of capital ships. As regards their dis tribution over a five-year period, It was concluded, in view of all the cir cumstances, that it would be best to make this as nearly uniform as might be. This course has obvious practi- cal advantages, particularly in view Of the present congested condition of the snipbuilding industry in this country. Moreover, since the maximum rate of expenditure upon the capital ships, which take some years to build in any case, will not be reached immediately, it enables us to concentrate more at first upon submarines and other quick ly built craft, so that we will get earlier returns for our expenditure in the shape of completed vessels

Refuaees Flee ItaIv.

Zurieh.-When Italy declared war against Austria-Hungary thousands of "irredentists" or Italian sympathiz- CTS from the coast district fled to Italy. These fugitives are now com ing to Switzerland in droves, because they have not been treated as they expected by the government and the people of Italy. All men of military age were requested to join the Italian army, but to this they object.
