The steamer Alameda that left here yesterday morning for Seattle took on board at this port 1155 tons of copper ore, and 5000 cases of salmon. This has become such a common occur renee to us in Cordova that we fail to realize just what it means. If one would stop and think however, he would realize the astonishing fact that the boats leaving Cordova for Seattle get more freight in this port alone, than they get in Seattle for all the towns they touch at coming north. That is a concrete example of how great the exports of Cordova have mounted this summer. and this is but a beginning.

 The truth is, however that the shipments from Cordova, are actual and real, they are not estimates, they are not in the future, and they spell tonnage in large letters. Practically all the boats of the Alaska Steamship Company are being used to carry the southbound freight of Cordova. Even the boats running to Nome, are com ing back this way to relieve the con- gestion of ore at the dock. Every available car of the railroad is in com mission this summer and being worked to it's full capacity. And still the ever growing tide of copper ore keeps coming to Cordova for trans

LONDON, June 30-The power of the Iealtons has not been broken in the east, and their armies continue to drive back tho Slav all along the line from eastern Galica northward, and well into Russian Poland. Despite stubborn resistance and contesting every foot of the ground, the Russian soldiers being compealsd to give way before the steady continuous pressure of the AusSroC Cterman assaults.

 That part of this $1O,OOO,OO0 will be used to purchase other valuable cop per properties along the line of the railroad seems to be reasonably as sured. This will mean that the Syndi- cate can build spurs from the present railroad to its new mines, and place more of them on a shipping basis. The only thing that keeps the Mother Lode mine from being an all the year round shipper is the fact that the mine Is 13 miles from the railroad, and the only way to get the ore down the trail Is to sled 1t when the snow comes. The Mother Lode mine could be sending out as much ore per month as the

WASHINGTON, D. C., June 3O.- Justice Wendell Stafford, of the Su- preme Court of the District of Colum- bia, who has been considering the action brought by the American bond holders of the Alaska Northern to re- strain the government from paying over the purchase price of the road to the Canadian bondholders, today de nied the motion of the plaintiffs asking that one-tenth of the purchase price of the road be paid into court to be held until the suit was determined.
 This was asked in order to protect any interest in the money that the American bondholders. E. A. Shedd x Co.,, and John R. Thompson of Chi cago, might have. The Canadian ven dors were given until August 20, by the court, to defend before him the allegations of fraud and conspiracy made by the American bondholders. The attorneys for Secretary of the Interior and the Alaska Railroad Com mission assured Judge Stafford that the government would withhold the payment of one-half million of the pur- chase price until August 20.

st. Petersburg, Jan, 2.
bTHE Grand Duchess Marie OF
Russia, divorced wife of
I Prince William of Sweden, Is
doing penance for her sins In man
ner most unusual for imperial
princesses.
She has been ordered to atone by
faithful service as a nurse among
the wounded Russian soldiers for
her escapades in Sweden, her scan
dalous treatment Of her husband and
her many pranks in Paris.
The Grand Duchess, who is a first
cousin of the Gear, gave His Majesty
a terrible shock when she ran away
from Stockholm to Paris about eigh-
teen months ago, deserving her hus-
band and child. after Haunting her
escapades In the eyes Of Sweden.
The Gear poses as stern guardian
of morality, in spite OF some peculiar
conduct of his own and the very nu-
merous vagaries of members OF his
family for generations past. When
ever any Of his relatives commits q
morganatic marriage or simply an
indiscretion, he visits punishment
and Punishment uron the offender.
When the Gar learned the full
enormity Of his pretty cousins do
ings, he gave orders that she should
not be received at court or enjoy
any OF the rank, titles, privileges and
revenues that belonged to her by
birth.
AS the Grand Duchess had COM
mitted many of her indiscretionB to
promote the interests Of the Russian
court and government, she felt this
punishment cruelty. Her ambition
had been to get away from silly
Sweden" as she called II. and shine
as the most brilliant figure at she
extravagant, gay court of st. Pa,ers-
burg.
she implored the Gear to forgive
her, but he absolutely refused to see
her or to modify his order In any
way. sHe informed her that the only
becoming course for her would be
70 retire to a convent Several ef-
forts she made to induce him to re-
lent in the Summer OF 1914 were
without result.
Then came the. war. The Grand
Duchess, who was intensely inter
ested in the success OF Russia, APP
pealed to the Gear TO allow her to
take her place In her country. This
time conditions were different The
Car replied:
'Tf you will go TO work IN the
nursing corps, do whatever is re-
auired of you and obtain the ap-
prevail of your superiors by efficient
service, I will restore you to your
position at court after the war"
The Grand Duchess eagerly &C
cepted this offer. She is now with
the army In Poland with a corps OF
nursing Sisters, and is laboring day
and night among the most dreadful
scenes Of the war. In the great cam
paign in Poland thousands OF men
are left mangled upon tbs ground
and II is beyond the efforts OF all the
nurses who can be secured TO give
them even rudimehtary care
The Grand Duchess Marie is as
handsome and picturesque as an
American variety stage actress. In
this respect she differs from most
European royalties. In her nurses
costume she win bring Joy and re
lief to many poor wounded soldier

The Grand Duchess was only SIX
teen months old when her mother
died, six days after giving birth to
Mar1e's brother, Grand Duke Dmitrt.
The mother was q sister OF King
Constantine of Greece. She had q
