MANY RUMORS
 ABOUT THE R. R.
CORRESPONDENT SAYS SUCH RUMORS ARE ALL UN-
 FOUNDED.

That there is no foundation for the rumors floating about concerning the Alaska Government railroad is the opinion expressed in s cablegram this afternoon to the Gateway from the man who is looking after the press service for this paper specially in Seattle. Because of the rumOrs which have been floating around he received instructions yesterday to make a special effort to gather all the reliable news about the railroad that he could possibly get and an answer was received from him today. It must be remembered all the time that when any private individual gets news the great press service will be most likely to have it. The following is the tele- gram received IF answer to the re- quest to have all news:
 Many unfounded rumors here about the railroad. Nothing will De learned until Wilson makes his decis- ion. 1t is generally believed here that the size of the appropriation indicates the intention to build only seventy five miles from Knik to Matanuska field this year."
 Whether the geographical know ledge of the correspondent is correct or not itsseems to be evident that nothing more is known positively in Seattle than we know.

WILL POWERS
 GO TO MEXICO :?
OBREGONS OBSTINACY BRINGS RUMORS OF FOREIGN
 ALLIANCE.

WASHINGTON, March 6.-The seriousness of the condition in Mexico City has brought suggestions of an allied expedition to that republic to bring it to a state of order. Obregon has refused to permit foreign resi- dents of Mexico City to aid the people in want there and has altogether de- clined to allow any foreign nation to subscribe funds for the benefit of the many who are said to be starving in his nation. The reports coming from the unfortunate city get worse and worse ali the time. 1t is made clear that most frightful state of affairs will result from the amazing brutality and recklessness of the self seeking leaders who are now keeping the country embroiled in civil war. There is really strong reason to believe that this government will once more send an expedition and that no other course can bring about peace.

ALAMEDA COMING UP
 IN RECORD TIME.
Two Boats Now on the Way Have Nearly Seventy People for Se-
 ward from Seattle.

The Alameda sailed from Skagway at 9:9O o'clock this morning. She has thirty-one people aboard from Seattle for Seward and picked up three cap italists at Skagway. The Evans which is also on the way has thirty-seven passengers from Seattle for Seward so that the total from Seattle on the two boats for this city is nearly seven ty. It is more than likely, of course, that both will take on passengers at the different Alaska points for this place so we need not to be surprised if nearly hundred people land here during the coming week.

SAY PRESIDENT
 WILL SOON TELL
ASSOCIATED PRESS TELLS ALL IT KNOWS ABOUT R. R.
 SITUATION.

WASHINGTON, March 6.-AccOrd- ing to the Associated Press cores pondent at Washington the questions relating to the government Alaska railroad will soon be decided by Presi- dent Wilson. No definite date for the decision is given and apparently neither the president nor the secretary of the interior seems to be inclined to say anything of final nature at pres ent. The engineering board made it's report to the President on March A. The only matter of real consequence stated by the Associated Press cores pondent at Washington is that Lane will first look over the report and then turn it over to Mir. Wilson. The great press service seems to be desirous of being careful and conservative m this matter, as presumably, they do not wish to create any false sensations Correspondents of a special kind for various papers send out from Wash ington from time to time many state ments which are not borne out later by results.

NO DEFINITE NEWS ABOUT R. R.
GREAT LINER ATTIRE
 IN ATLANTIC OCEAN

LONDON, March 6.-The big French liner Touraine of Havre is now afre on the Atlantic six hundred miles off the coast of Ireland. The last news flashed from the ship is that the passengers are safe but that the ship is probably doomed. She had eight-four passengers and five thou sand cases of ammunition which was probably being conveyed to England for war purposes. This latter fact has already given rise to the rumor that the fire was caused by German agents. Five steamers are now going as fast as possible to the rescue. It B
 supposed that the passengers have taken to the boats and that they are awaiting the coming of the rescuing steamers but this is only assumed from the statement that they are safe.

FORWARDING DARDANELLES

PARIS, March 6-According to the official announce ment this afternoon the allied fleets are still pounding away at the Turkish Notifications. The most reliable counts from that quarter to the effect that third of he channel has been cleared for the advance of the ships This clearly shows that the statement from Athens that half the way through the Dardanees had been gained is not founded on fact It stated however that the task of forcing way through to ConSanrnope promises to be by no means impossible although the allied powers do not look for such result without suffering some losses The
 fleet is said to be advancing carefully and keeping the wat CTS behind carefully guarded against the laying of mines or any other attempts to cut it off, The naroweSt part of the channel yet remains be forced but the ships are able to attack the forts without coming abreast of them and so very often remain beyond the range of the inferior Turkish gunnery.

REMARKABLE SUIT AGAINST
 BEET SUGAR PEOPLE.
Franked an Advertisement Because It Was Supposed to be a Speech
 of a Senator.

WASHINGTON, March 6.-The government has brought suit against members of the beet sugar industry under one of the most interesting cir cumstances recorded for some time. The government claims that seven thousand dollars are due it because it permitted the best sugar people to frank through the mails a pamphlet dealing with the industry when the government officials thought that the document being sent free of postage was a speech of Senator Lodge on the sugar tariff. The seven thousand dOl- lars are asked for postage.

 Headquarters Camp, Ship Creek,
 February "A, 1915. The Seward Gateway, Seward, Alaska. Dear Sirs:
 Will you kindly mention in your interesting paper that there are no accomodations at this place for transients.
 There is quite an influx of peO- pie coming in here, and many of them think there are roadhouses in operation, and consequently come wholly unprepared to camp. There are, under course of con struction roadhouses, but it will be two months before they will be in shape to do business, and it appears to me, it would be kind ness to the public if you would make mention of the fact. The government camp has no way of caring for these people, and no more provision than will carry US through until navigation opens:
