FUNSTON MAY
 YET OPEN WAR
ORDER FROM WASHINGTON TO STOP FIRING ACROSS BORD-
 FIR AT ALL COSTS

WASHINGTON, July 25.-Gener- al Funston has received orders to stop the firing by the Mexicans over the border at any cost. The Mexicans are constantly sending bullets across the frontier near Naco and Nogales and all warnings have fallen on deaf ears. It is said here unofIicially that the failure on the part of the Mexi- cans to make an end of this practise immediately will result in an. invasion of Mexican territory by the United States troops. Villa and Carranza have been positively and finally noti- fled that the United States govern ment will use force if necessary from this time forward to protect Ameri- cans and matters between the two countries have reached once more a dangerous stage.

 * ALL-ALASKA REVIEW "' < OFF PRESSES TODAY. <

The last pages of the July Ali Alaska Review came off the presses today and the Review will be on sale tomorrow. It should always be re- membered that in the condensed news columns not an item of information of any part of Alaska is omitted if it is worth recording. In these columns are given each month all the births, deaths, marriages, strikes, business deals of importance, accidents and everything else. In speaking of the vital statistics contained therein in the shape of news it is worthy of note that John Barrett, representative in this part of Alaska of the New York Life Insurance Company, and E. l.. Webster, the representative of the same great company for the whole northwestern states, subscribed and stated that these columns are most useful to them. Even the i'm portant events happening to former Alaskans outside are chrOnicled. Every paper which could possibly have Alaska news is carefully search ed and that news condensed for those pages. Sometimes one column of the condensed news in the Review represents the reading carefully of scores of newspapers and, consequent lv a tremendous amount of work which cannot be measured by the re- suits unless it is remembered that no news connected with Alaskans any where is overlooked. The present is- sue of the Review is probably the most instructive and best up to the present. The mining information has been selected with view to giving outside capital an idea of what we have. Keep all those issues. A vol ume of them means the current his- tory of the social, industrial and political life of the territory.

FIVE THOUSAND FEET
 OF WATER PIPE HERE,  When Laid Down City of Seward Will Have Five Miles of Water
 Pipe Altogether,

Five thousand feet feet of water pipe arrived on one of the last boat for the Seward Water and Power Company. Some of it will be used to carry water to the new Terminal tract which is now being surveyed by the engineering commission and where it is likely the houses will be built for the permannet employees of the railroad work. The rest of the pipe will be used to lead water to the other parts of the city where new buildings are going up. When the latest pipes are laid down the com pany will have more than five miles of pipe supplying Seward.

The state attorney declares that the government inspectors are to blame for the occurrence as most people who knew the vessel were aware of the fact that she was un- trustworthy Several letters were sent to Washington telling of her condition and predicting just such a disaster. The mayor has started a fund of two hundred thousand dol lars for the families of the victims. President Wilson wired his sympathy with the relatives of the drowned i'm mediateIy on hearing of the disaster and Sir Thomas Lipton at once gave

BAYONNE, July 25.-The deputies last night raided an arsenal of the strikers and captured fifty rifles and large quantity of ammunition.

CHICAGO, July 25.-(Later) The Easuaud was loaded at the time of the disaster with two thousand em- ployes of the Western Electric company and was leaving the dock when she overturned. AS many of the excursionists were below they have been trapped in the ship and their screams of terror can still be heard as rescuers are struggling mad Iy with steel drills to punch holes for their rescue. Even yet the number of dead can only be guessed but it is sure to be we'll in the hundreds at least. Captain Pederson and Mate Fisher have been arrested and the captain states the belief that the catastrophe was caused by the break ing of the air chute. Some people say that the officers delayed until too late the taking of water ballast and this delay was responsible for the occur renee.

CHICAGO, July 25.-Loaded down with two thousand human beings and right at a dock one of the most ap- paling marine disaster in history occurred here yesterday when the steamer Eastland capsized and car ried hundreds of people to their death. At the present moment it is supposed that the number of dead will be over thousand but the most blood curdling of all the facts connected with the horrible occurrence is that right at this moment the screams of hundreds of people who are trapped in the overturned vessel can be heard rising in agonized terror. The river is clogged with bodies and the whole population of the city almost is rush ing to the scene.

BERLIN, July 26-The American note has arrived here and been published and today is being attacked by the whole press of the city The newspapers declare that the Washington government has ignored the German view point entirely and seems to be wrapped up in its conclusions while the tone of the reply domneerng and apparently intended to show that the entry of the United States into the war is bogey by which Germany can be frightened into compliance with all American demands The manner in which the note is received is indeed most unfavorabe and potends change for the worse in the relations between the two governments.

TURKS BUY BULGARIA

SOFIA, Bulgaria, July 26.-Turkey has ceded the Turkish portion of the Dedeagath railroad to Bulgaria and this gift is assumed here to be the price, part of the price paid to this nation for its neutrality in the present war It is also supposed here that Germany and Austria have made promises to Bulgaria of greater access sons if we continue to refuse to attack Turkey from the north as it is now generally thought that the efforts of the allies to take COnstantinOpe without our aid are futile or at most only be successful after tremendous losses
