KAISER HAS TRIUMPH

BUCHAREST, June 24.-The kaiser of Germany at the head of hundred thousand of the flower of his army rode into the city of Lemberg today, like Caesar in triumph of ancient Rome The entry was made with tremendous pomp and circumstance intended to celebrate what the Tetonc allies regard as the final clearing of the invader from Austrian soil From the dispatches received here it is deduced that the Teutons have continued the pursuit of the Russians whose advance is said to be actually crossing the home frontier into Russian terri tory. The immense population of Jews which goes to make large proportion of the total population of Lem berg almost went wild with joy at the return of the Teutonic armies and the expulsion of the Russian garr son. The whole city fete when the kaiser and brilliant staff rode into the main streets and if the city were Petrograd itself the demonstration of joy by the Germans and Austrians could hardly have been greater The opinion seems to prevail in this capital that Roumana by it's entry into the could scarcely hope to save the day for the czar,

ACKLEY STARTS CHARGES
 AGAINST BILLY SUNDAY

PHILADELPHIA, June 24.-Ack- ley, the resigned secretary of Billy Sunday, has come out with his first charges against Sunday and will fol- low them up with others and more serious one. He declares that Sunday plagiarizes all the prominent evangel- ists of the past and gives out their sentiments and words as his own. Amongst those who have furnished copy for Sunday, according to his former secretary, are, Sam Jones, Talmadge and Gypsy Smith. The ex- posture promised by Ackley is being awaited with keen anticipation by the public who fully expect that the evangelist idol has feet of clay.

BASEBALL RIVALRY

The Federals and Seward Will Meet This Evening tO Decide Mat

The Federals will meet Seward this evening in battle on Resurrection diamond to decide once for all which is to stand supreme. The batteries will be the old one; Darlington and Burley for the Outlaws, and Kicker son and Manthey for the HOmers. This game is the result of a warm argument that came up in the last day or two. It is said that some good money has been put up on the Feds and that Seward packers covered every cent oft. The captains and managers declare that the game will be fought with every ounce in both punches. A few new men will be used but the lineups will be about the same as those which fought it out before.

LANSING GETS
 JOB OF BRYAN
OFFICIALLY ANNOUNCED THAT HE HAS BEEN MADE PER-
 MANENT PREMIER.

WASHINGTON, June 23.-It was announced officially this afternoon that Robert Lansing has received the permanent appointment as secretary of state in place of William Jennings Bryan. The announcement was made without causing surprise as the presi- dent was fairly well known to have made up his mind on the matter al though desirous of postponing the fin al decision until the country had had time to give it's views if the people wished to do so. The first act of the new secretary was to send a warning this evening to Mexico that the lives and property of foreigners in Mexico City must be respected. President Wilson, after making the statement of Lansing's appointment, went to his summer quarters at Cornish, New Hampshire.

TO TURN OVER
 R. R. JULY ,
NEXT MONDAY WEEK IS THE DAY NAMED FOR TRANS
 FER TO GOVERNMENT

July 3, which falls on the Monday following next Monday, is the exact date on which the Alaska Northern is to be turned over to the govern ment. It is stated, however, that a clause exists in the agreement by which the transfer can be delayed should some unexpected occurrence make the delay advisable. That there will be no reason for taking advant- age of this delay is about certain. The clause is simply one of those pre- cautionary measures taken usually by governments. Word has been receiv- ed that the contract compels the vend- ors of the railroad to transfer it to the government and also compels the government to accept the road, that is, as far as a government can De compelled to do anything. The law suits now pending do not in the least affect the purchase of the road, as has been stated before. They only affect the manner in which the purchase price is to be divided. Tke govern ment's fiscal year begins on the first of July and on that day the two mil lion dollars appropriated by congress will be available for use in the pur- chase of the Alaska Northern and for construction work by the engineering commission. So ten days from date we shall probably see the government in charge.

 .: TERMINAL RUMORS {: * WERE MISLEADING. "

It would be better to avoid entirely any reference to the rumors about the terminal which gained currency last evening, and received so much false coloring today, but so many ground less stories have been told that an ex- planation may be desirable. The whole thing has been caused by the use of the phrase terminal coal dock site" when speaking of Anchorage in a communication to the outside. This phrase was borrowed from a poster issued by Commissioner Mears. In taking a copy of the communication in Seward, a. coma got in accidentally between the words terminal and tue following word and made it appear as though Anchorage was called the terminal of the railroad. 1t has been explained that the phrase did not mean terminal at all in the sense that we have come to consider it. As $ matter of fact Matanuska will be an other terminal-the terminal of branch line. However, the communi- cation was followed up this morning by one stating that Seward and Se- ward only is the terminal of the gov ernment railroad, which we all know to our hearts content by this time.

LICENSE REFUSED.

Judge Brown has refused to grant a license to Mir. Myers for a saloon in Seward and Deputy Marshal Evans was notified of the fact last evening. Mir. Myers and another man made ap- lication while the court was in session here but the other party pulled out. The judge refused the license on the ground that Seward has enough saloons, a belief which the majority of the people of the city seem to share with him.
