GERMANY CLAIMS
 MORE VICTORIES Says Second Battle in East Prussia Got 10000
 Prisoners
WILL MINE WATERS IF
 BRITAIN STOPS FOODSTUFFS
FEAR BRITISH TRICK

BERLIN, Feb. 16.-The officials of the German gov ernment have given out sort of semioficia expression of the belief that the British will sink few neutral ships in the waters included in the danger by Germany and then try to lay the blame this country It is admitted that there ground for this belief other than suspc ion that the British would have much to gain by such
 procedure it would be most tempting neutral nations
 like the United States of America might be drawn into the conflict It is officially announced that unless Great Brit
 ain rescnds it's order against the shipping of foodsuffs to Germany the German fleet will SOW mines all the waters declared by Germany to be within the danger zone The day of sowing these mines is given as the egh teenth of the present month unless Britain agrees in the meantime to let the cargoes of foodstu through From that time forward neutral nations warned that their shipping will be in serious danger should their ships at tempt to enter that At that time will begin the real attempt to realiate against the British by cutting off sup plies from the people of that country much as possible

SCANDAL OVER
 SHIPPING BILL
McADOO CHARGED WITH BEING FINANCIALLY INTERESTED
 IN MEASURE.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-The fight on the shipping bill started in the house today and promises to be a hot one. The debate has, however been limited to six hours. The senate to- day began an investigation of the charges that Secretary of the Treas ury McAdoo, son in law of the presi- dent, and other proponents of the measure are financially interestei in it's passage. The foundation for this charge is very slim it is admitted but the investigation is deemed expedient to clear McAdoo and the others if for nothing else. The democratic party in caucus pledged itself last night to sup port the compromise measure. This compromise, as stated before, is that government ships be placed und'r a commission until after the war.

LONDON ADMITS ALLIED LOSSES

LONDON, Feb 16-The official news issued today by the government press bureau seems to be favorabe to the allied armies in the western field of It states that the Germans have again renewed the offensive at various parts of the line in France and is canddy ad mitted that the enemy has scored some successes It conceded that the British attacks on the German lines at La Bassee have been checked but the official bulletin states that the British hold their positions although they have failed to move the enemy spite of determined at tacks It is feared that these attacks strongly en- trenched positions will result severe British losses but it announced that the assaults will be continued until the
 Germans are forced to evacuate their places at that point The Germans have also inflicted another blow the French at St. Mhe and this success of the enemy be-
 eved to be rather important although the details have not been published The efforts of the French at that point have been directed towards preventing the enemy from completing the circle around the fortress Of Verdn which is now feared be in danger of total investment Another important engagement has been fought at Ypres re- suit of the German offensive The enemy captured half mile of trenches at that place and the allies cannot boast of any compensating advantage On the whole the news from either front today is not pleasant but so many changes have come in the fortunes of the contendng
 les that another day expected to bring better tdngs From the violence of the attack at Ypres is thought that the Germans beginning their great effort to break through from that point towards the northern ports of France and the present week will most likely witness one ot the most terrific conflicts of the war The enemy has and the allies have been preparing in similar manner so that the forces opposed to each other around Yres are nothing less than mighty armies.

CLAIM BUKOWINA IS CLEAR

VIENNA, Feb 16.-Coming simultaneously with the news of the victories of the Gremans in East Prussia is the news that the Austrans have completely driven the Russians from the province of Bukowina After the de- feat of last week the Russians began to retire to the east ward They were followed closely by the Austrans under Dan and engaged determnedy every time they attempt ed to make stand Yesterday the AustranS drove them back further and captured the important city of Nadwor ma so taking the last foothod of the enemy in the province Bukowna was officially declared to be free of the enemy this morning and the Austrians still advancing to- wards the Dnester river where the Russians are expected to make their next stand unless they are overaken and overwhelmed sooner The from the midCarpathian batefelds is also favorable to the armies so that from the extreme north to the extreme south of the line nothing has been related for several days but suc cess after success of the allied Teuton forces Fighting directly west of Warsaw has uled temporarily but with the defeats of the Russians their right and left the at tack on the Polish capital will probably be renewed with greater vigor than ever.

SEWARD MAN IS GOING
 TO INITIATE THE FROG

 Can Come out again.

Jack Rousseau is a former Seward man who offers hifself on the altar of science by declaring that he will per nit himself to be enclosed in ice to see if he can come out alive again like a frog, according to the Seattle Post Intelligencer of last Sunday week. MT. Rousseau, who made the offer to re- porter of that paper, was at Seat tie hotel on the way to Ketchikan where he intends to go naked into the wilderness to find how long a man can live in cold weather without prOtec- ton. "If frog can be frozen into a lump of ice" said Mir. Rousseau land come out alive, what's the matter with a man doing it." The P. l, says a lot mere about Mir.

OTTAWA WAS

SUPPOSED AIRSHIPS WERE NOTHING BUT TOY BALLOONS

OTTAWA, Feb. 16.-The people of this city have discovered that when they put out their lights the other night and sank the whole city in darkness they were the victims of either hoax or unconscious children, The supposed airship fleet that was on the way to lombard the city has turn
 ed out to be nothing more than lot of toy balloons let loose at Morris town, New York. When the balloons made their Appearance over the bor- der the Canadian authorities aJ the border immediately telegraphed to the officials in this capital and the people at once came to the conclusion tHat the Germans were on the way from the United States.

ing to the various changes which the stocks and bonds have undergone in ownership. AS stated before, the sec retary of the interior has had prolOng- ed conferences with the representative of the road and the examination of the title by Rublee following these con- ferences is taken to mean that the ad- ministration has about decided to take over the road on the Kenai peninsula. This deduction must, however, be made without any positive grounds to work on as the secretary has made no statement Of definite nature. The very appointment of counsel to the commission is regarded by Alaskans as significant coming at this time.
