What were the eapitulations abro.

tutsd them and why7
About twenty-five years ago Turkey
made certain concessions or agree
ments with several friendly nations.
including the United States, by which
the consuls Of those nations In Turkey
were to have extraterritorial jurisdic-
ton over their citizens temporarily re-
siding in the country, with the right
to try such citizens upon any charge
made against them. according to the
laws of their own country. Thus II a
Frenchman or an American living in
Turkey committed crime he was to
be tried by the French or the American
consul, according to French or Ameri-
can law and not by the Turkish courts.
This was in effect concession to the
other nations and surrender Of Ger
tain powers by Turkey. By abrogating
these agreements or capitulations Tur-
key resumed her former attributes and
claimed the right to try all offenders
against her laws in Turkish courts and
according to Turkish law. Just what
the effect will be on foreigners resid-
ing in Turkey remains to be seen.

The last Hague conference, held at
The Hague in 1907, was participated

PETERSBURG. Va, Dee. lO.-The Dupont Powder Company's boom
 town of Hopewel was entirely destroyed by fire last night. The fire was started by an upturued oil stove from which the blaze spread with amazing quickncss. There Is no doubt about the orign of the blaze and this fact removes all suspicion that the pro-German elements were responsible. It is the third fire recorded in relation to this company within a month. The town had twenty-five thousand inhabitants and had sprung up in a few months be- cause of the immense number of men employed in the work of making ann munition of tre allied nations. lt was composed almost entirely of frame buildings and the fire ran through 1t almost like prairie fire, no time hay ing been given since the establishment of the town to prepare fire fighting

ANCHORAGE, Dec. 10. - The launch Traveller is being launched this afternoon to go to the rescue of a launch which is believed to be the Brighton and which has been seen drifting about near Fire Island. It is reported that Nate White and two others are aboard. Captain Cramer says he can make it to the helpless craft. The government commission is financing the expedition. Nate White has been absent since the time that Fred Tracy and his companions took to the launch and some anxiety has been felt for him. Cramer is thought to be taking some serious chances in making the attempt.

SEWARD MAN TAKES PHOTOS
 OF HARBOR AT ANCHORAGE

The enterprising CD town of Sew ard has gone to the trouble to send a moving picture man, with his ma chine, to take view of the so-called ice conditions around Sihp creek.
 The result of this insane jealousy on the part of Seward for the neigh boring town of Anchorage will serve no useful purpose. If it will have any effect at all, it will tend to harass the Alaskan Engineering Commission and to give ammunition to those mem bers of the congress who have always opposed the Alaska railway project. This, the town of Seward can ill af- ford to do.
 If Seward will exercise a little pa tience, the railway will eventually reach that point. In fact, if the eight million dollar appropriation is pass ed by congress during the coming ses- sion, there is no doubt whatever but that work will be commenced on the Seward end of the line.
 It is incomprehensible that citizens of that town should adopt such a short-sighted policy. The interests of this town and that of Seward are in- separably connected with the building of the great Alaska railway project. Should work on this project cease, both towns are up against it strong. Our interests, therefore, are mutual. This should be apparent to Seward.
 The Pioneer has faith in the con- mon sense and far-sightedness of the majority of the residents of the Res urrection bay town, to believe that any effort on the part of some Overen- thusiastic individuals will not reflect public sentiment as a whole, and that Seward will do nothing to befoul its own nest to use the figure of speech"
