FAiRsANKs COMPLAINS
 OF SUMMER WEATHER

Complaining of the summer condi- lions that prevailed in the interior of Alaska as late as December 20, the Fairbanks News-Aliner says:
 "In the interior of Alaska, where the Outside world believes there ia nothing but snow and ice every day of the year. to date there has been scarcely enough snow to create a fair sized snowball, and even the school chldren are protesting against the condition. Stages continue to run on wheels, there not being enough snow to make travelling with dog sleda de- sirable or possible. Woodhaulers who at this time of the year are ai- ways getting busy hauling wood can only haul by wagon and the wood sup plies are getting short and the price of wood is climbing Freighters can. not freight at a profit, and mushers throw up a dust that makes their pro gress unpleasant for the ground is not eyon frozen.
 Much to Che joy of the Fairbanks people. SHOW came however, Q little later. and lie Is worth the living in the Interior. People can now utilize bobsleds In Che transportation of freight, and business is moving.

VIENNA ANXIOUS FOR AM|CAbLE
 SETTLEMENT
Penfield Cables Austria De. sirous Friendly Under
 standing with U. S.

Washington, Dec. 27.-The state de- partment has received from Ambassa- dor Penfield at Vienna report on the Ancona case, indicating that the Austrian government is in an anica- ble mood and desirous of a friendly and satisfactory settlement of the matter.
 MT. Penfield sent a synopsis of the expressions of the Austrian press on the subject. These also indicate a disposition to come to friendly un- derstanding.
 German and Austrian officials here, and others closely interested in the outcome of the American demands, say that Austria's answer will be an ingenious compromise. It is stat ed that she will make substantially the two following propositions:
 First, Austria will offer guarantees for the future, precisely on the lines of those given by Ambassador von Bernstorff in the Arabic case. These will provide that vessels will not be torpedoed without warning and pro- vision for the safety of all persons on board.
 Second, with such concession, Austria will ask that the facts be arbitrated as far as they affect Amer ican citizens If the contentious of the United States are proved, then Austria will pay indemnity as ap- praised by any form of arbitration.
