pointing New England has not as yet benefited to any degree. The cotton industry is slowly picking up. but the general shoe business remains disappointing and the wool trade is irregulard.
 The West is the most optimistic That section has corralled all kinds of money by reason of the high price for grain. and 1t sees. or thinks it sees. another bumper wheat crop. The steel trade is steadily betterlng. There is a bis demand for copper and other metals.
 But behind ali this lies the uncer- tainty of the great European struggle. This is bound to be the dominating factor in the worlds situation and no one nation can absolutely free itself from it's influence.
 Some day the question will arise how Europe can pay It's indebtedness to us. We should be glad to receive our own securities in lieu of gold. but we may be obliged to accept for eign securities Of indebtedness or. pos sibly the joint notes of the Allies.
 AS to the security Of the market there has been first-class selling of late Whether this liquidation has arisen simply because of attractive prices or whether 1t has been intend ed chiefly to restrain wild speculation Is a question. But in which ever in- stance. the absorbtive power has been wonderful.

They have leased m island containing 60.000 acres near Ketchikan aud will raise cattle. hogs and sheep for the Northern markets. Mir. Ryus is in the city to arrange for setting breed ing stock for the range. The exper- iment has already proved 8 success as far as hogs are concerned. a few having been on the island for two months. where they are thriving.
 Stock raising win prove to be one of the best of che industries of the Northern country in my opinion" de cleared MT. Ryus yesterday at the Rector. There is Q lot of good graz ing land to be had and if the winters are not any worse than last years cattle and other animals may stay outside the greater part Of the time. We have a lease on an island which contains 60.0O0 acres. and most of it is suitable for pasture right now.
 Mir. Ryus doesn't think that Ketchi- kan will lose much money on account of the competition Of Prince Rupert for the halibut catch. "Fishermen with ordinary catches will more than 1ftof,- ctOr, of Erofchfiron fo coll ,r-hiIa any time they have a full load they will so on to Seattle" he said. The mild curing Of salmon wilI be fail ure this year. as there is practically no market now that Germany Is not buying.

NO FUNDS FOR ESTABLISHING
 MINE STATIONS


 There are no funds available for the establishment of on experimental mine station at Juneau or any other place this year, according to Q letter received by the Territorial Secretary from Charles L.. Parsons, acting as. sistant director of the bureau of mines.
 The letter was received in response to the memorial by the Alaska Legis. lature asking that one of tho ten ex- perimental mining stations authorized by Congress be located at Juneau. The memorial was introduced in the Legislature By Senator Charles A. Sulzer and passed by both the Senate and House.
 The acting assist directors letter is as follows
 "Referring to your letters of April 29. addressed to the President of the United States Senate and the Secre- tary of the Interior, which have been referred to this office for considera- tion. and your letter Of the same date, addressed to the Director of the Blu reau of Mines, all transmitting certi- fled copies of Senate Joint Memorial No. 8, passed by the Alaska Territor. ial Legislature. relative to the estab- lishment of mining experiment sta ton at Juneau:
 While Congress has enacted into law the bill authorizing the establish ment of ten mining experiment sta. tions and seven mine safety stations. in addition to those already establish ed-with the proviso however. that not moro than three of such stations shall be established during any one fiscal year-no appropriations were made available for carrying the pro- visions of the law into effect
 Until such appropriations are, pro vided, nothing can of course be done so far as the actual establishment of the stations is concerned. The i'm portance of Alaska from a mining standpoint and Of Juneau as a mining center is fully appreciated by the Bureau of Mines. and. when the mat ter of the locations of the stations is taken up for determination, the claims of Juneau for recognition will be given careful consideration

He took exception to what he called
the I meddling of the mayor in the
matter and asserted that the mayor
had for years signed vouchers for hose
at the high price without making any
effort to investigate. Sullivan declar-
ed that he "could tell a lot about
former fire hose purchases but there
was no demand made on him for this
information and the incident was
closed after war of words.
The council was asked by Alderman
Bounsall to rescind its action in order
ing the city attorney to begin court
action to condemn the Ludwig proper
ty for park purposes. The alderman
declared that the property in that dis
trict would be vastly benefited by the
opening Of the park and declared that
if the property owners were not will
ing to sell to the city at a reasonable
rate he was not in favor of condemn
ing. The matter was finally referred
to the park commission.
Lyman Morehouse appeared and pro-
tested against wood cut from trees in
the city parks being sent to private
wood sheds and the council ordered
the park commission to turn over all
wood cut from city parks to the pau
per commission.
Electricity for Poor Farm.
The council without division granted

NEAR INJURY IN RACINE.
Kenosha Auto Party has Marrow Es-
cape by Going Over Embankment.

Three Kenoshans narrowly escaped
serious injury perhaps death-late
Friday evening when they ran their
car at pretty rapid speed east in
Sixth street, over the curbing on the
south side Of Lake avenue, on the lawn
in front of the Elks club and barely
escaped going into the lake. These
gentlemen came to Racine for a pleas
ure ride. Intending to visit the Elks
club the driver Of the machine turned
from Main into Sixth street He did
not know that Sixth street for travel,
ended at Lake avenue and kept on
driving his car east. After jumping
the curb and starting over the lawn
down the hill he saw the lake and
quickly turned his car to the south.
Two, Of the men leaped out, but the
driver stuck to the wheel. The auto
crashed through the iron fence and be-
fore it stopped reached the lawn adj
joining the Elks building on the east.
The machine was considerably damag.
ed and it is considered remarkable that
no one was hurt. With considerable
trouble the automobile was hauled along
the lake shore to Lake park walk and
up the hill to Lake ayenue.-Racine
