MERCHANTS OF THAT CITY ARE
ASKED TO GIVE THE RUSSIAN
GOVERNMENT BIDS FOR GOODS
TOTALiNG FIFTY MILLION
DOLLARS IN VALUE.
PACIFIC COAST IS FAVORED
SHIPMENTS WILL BE MADE TO
GERMAN BLOCKADE THAT IS
NOW BEING ENFORCED By THE
BRITISH ISLES.

SEATTLE, March 2S.-Merchants
Of this city have been asked to give
prices on goods to be shipped to
Russia. the total value Of the goods
amounting to about $5O,0OO,OOO 1t
is believed that Seattle will be able
to win the contracts, and In that
case it will be the greatest mercan-
tile deal ever made on the Pacific
coast of the United States.
The goods, it Is understood, will
be shipped across tie Pacific to
Valdivostok, and then transported
across the country on the Russian
railroad system. In this way, the
country will get the goods withou
their having to be shipped neal
the British Isles, where t. e Germans
are maintaining a blockade OF the
commerce for all the allied nations.
If Seattle does not get the con
tracts, it is almost sure that they
will go to some other Pacific coast
city. In any event, 1t is declared
by the dealers here, the money would
be put in circulation here and would
almost certainly have a tendency to
improve financial conditions.
Should this shipment Of goods
prove successful, it is quite certain
that it will be followed by other de
mands for goods from the Pacific
coast cities, for they are the near
est cities to the Siberian railroad.
Such goods that the Seattle mer-
chants cannot provide in accordance
with the demands of the Russian
government will be obtained by rail
from other cities, and before the
bids for the contract are submitted
to the Russian representatives, fig
ures from other cities will be secur-
ed by local merchants for the addi-
tional goods needed
In case the allies succeed in gain
ing possession Of the Dardanelles
ana the BOSpnOruS, permitting them
to have a clear waterway into the
Black sea, it is expected that much
of the goods shipped from the west
ern coast of America to Russia
will be sent by water to the Black
sea by way OF the Suez canal, which
is controlled by Great Britain.
Optimistic merchants here are OF
the opinion that France may be fore
ed to buy supplies on this coast, and
have them shipped to the southern
coast Of France, on the Mediterran-
can, by way of the Suez canal, pro-
vided the German blockade becomes
effective along the other coasts Of
France.

MAIL CONGESTION AT AN END

CORDOVA. March 28.-Practically
all Of the mail destined for Fair
banks, which was piled up in the
postoffice at this place, has been
shipped out over the trail The con
gestion that existed here early In
the winter was gradually reduced.
There will be little mail sent here
after that Is not first class, as the
service was reduced after March
90. The second class mail will be
held back until the opening Of nayi
cation, when it will be shipped by
way of the White Pass railroad and
the Yukon river

England will receive today the
American note in reply to the
announcement sent out recently
that all commerce to Germany
and Austria would be bIockaded.
The American government, it is
understood, will make it clear to
Great Britain that she has no
right to interfere with neutral
commerce which is not Of con-
traband nature. The note will
be one of the most direct and
sharpest communications sent to
Europe since tho war started, it
is estimated.
J. p. Morgan, Jr., is in London
comforting with the British gov
eminent in regard to proposed
war loan to be made by Ameri-
can capitalists.
It Is reported from Paris that
the Germans are expected to
start vigorous spring campaign
in tho west within week, and
the allies are preparing to meet
it.

WIRELESS PLANT MAY BE SENT
TO SCENE OF STRIKE BY
COMPANY HEADED BY FALCON
JOSLIk, WHO WIRES HERE
FOR INFORMATION.
OUTFIT NOW IN THIS CITY
TELEGRAPH APPARATUS WAS
ONCE BOUGHT FOR kAlTAG,
AND LATER SENT UP RIVER
TOWARD CHISANA, BUT RE
TURNED HERE

That a wireless plant will in all
probability be established in the
Tolovana country by the company
of which Falcon Joslin is the head
was the statement of Wade II. JOS
lin yesterday. He is hourly expect
ing message from Mr.. Falcon JOS
lin, who is now Outside ordering him
10 prepare the plant for shipment
which he will proceed to do as soon
as the wire is received, as it is
hoped that the apparatus can be TAX
en- to the Tolovana over the trail
During the first part of the winter
when the first reports from the
Tolovana had reached the Outside
world, Mr.. Falcon Joslin wrote to
his nephew here, asking that he b
kept advised as TO the outlook in t'e
Toloyana. He stated that should
prove to be a camp, he would in
stall the wireless plant of his com
pany, which is now in storage here
In reply to the letter, the local Mr..
Joslin advised his uncle that the
proposition was a good one, in
sequence of which wires have beer
interchanged between the two for
the past several days
The last wire of Wade Josln was
sent day before yesterday, advising
his uncle that the plant had better
be sent in now on account of tie
condition of the trail Upon the
answer to his message depends
whether or not the Tolovana country
is to have a wireless station this
summer
The plant IN question is one which
was installed at Kaltag about the
time of the lditarod stampede. 1t
worked in conjunction with a plant
installed at the same time at Idt-
arod by the same company, but
owing to the fact that there was
too little work to be done there,
it was taken down, and started on
its way to the Chisana country,
during the stampede to that district
year ago last summer
However, it never reached the
Chisana, not being taken any furth-
er than the headwaters of the Tana-
ma river, but was brought back here
Seal. The plant of the company at
lditarod is still working in conjunc-
tion with the government wireless
station at Nulato
Mr.. Joslin states that the entire
outfit weighs about eight tons Should
he receive the mandatory message
he expects, he intends to send the
pa1aphernalia in over the trail i'm
mediately, and contemplates no trou-
BILE in being able to do so.
Should the wireless station be es-
tablished in the Tolovana, it is plan
ned TO make arrangements by which
it can operate, in connection with
the government wireless station here
1t could operate with stations along
the Yukon river but that would be
of no material benefit to Fairbanks
If for some reason the govern
refuses to work with the new sta
ton, Mr.. Wade Joslin is authority
for the statement that the new
company will purchase another plant
on the Outside. and establish it il
this city.

city from Rome it Is evident that
the Italian government is watching
the outcome of the fighting betwe cen
the Teutons and the Slavs for the
control of the Carpathian mountains,
and upon the result Of that fight,
it is supposed here, will depend the
attitude Of Italy in regard to taking
up arms in the present war. It is
declared at the office that Italy i

GERMAN ATTACKS
ARE CONTINUING.

FETRoGRAn, March German
troops are keeping up their tactics
OF first attacking the Russian line
in one place and then starting an
attack at another.
The fighting in Poland is now cen
tering around the villages of Serafin
and Tartac. The Germans succeed
ed in taking some important trench
es from the Russians in those places
but the Russians have since been
enabled to silence the German bat
teries near Ossowetz. The Russians
nave also captured some of the big
siege guns on the outskirts of that
city.

FAMOUS BAND ENGAGED FOR STATE FAIR

The Fourth Regiment Band Of
Watertown will fill its eighth annual
engagement as official band at the
1915 South Dakota. State Fair and
Exposition. This truly remarkable
band won first prize of $4,000 in
the national band contest at Los
Angeles in July, being marked on
music, marching and appearance.
There were fifteen contestants. One
week later they won q national con-
test at San Diego. While en- route,
the band played at the Liberty Bell
program at Omaha, July 9.
The band gave many concerts on.
the way to the Pacific coast, and
made a big hit wherever presented.
Both on the road and on the coast
the band received constant applause,
as the following press notices indi-
cate:
Mankato Daily Review: .'It. was the
finest non-professional band that has
ever played or stopped in Mankato,
and their visit will long be remem-
bered by the. large number Of people
who we're fortunate enough to hear

Los Angeles Examiner. speaking of
the big dance on the pavement during
an evening when the Elks reunion
was on: "All bands were of the first

ment band, brought all the way from
Watertown, s. D., by the Elks of
lodge No. s3S. The way Director w.
S. Peck put his boys through their
PAGES made even the old blase
tangoers sit up and take notice."
Los Angeles Express: Perhaps you
never heard of WATERFOWL, S. D., but
long before the big Elk's reunion is
over you will know that such q place
exists, for a 3O-piece band from there
that would attract attention any
where has arrived and If the band
boys have missed serenading a single
