MANY PEOPLE IN TOWN NOW:
 HOTELS FULL
FAIRBANKS IS CROWDED WITn VISITORS, MANY OF WHOM
 ARE STRANGERS HERE.

Where they all come from nobody there are more people in town now than there have been for years at this season. The hoteles of the city are full to overflowing, many of those who are here being unable to procure accommodations
 The fall season is that when there are usually more people in Fair banks than at any other time, but this year there is surplus. It is supposed that the overflow is being caused by the fact that many people side over the trail and by the river route, most of them. supposedly. to work on the railroad. However, it is stated that among the new ar rivals in town there is an unusually large percentage of women.
 The city of Fairbanks is head quarters for the interior. Everybody comes here to outfit, no matter to what part of the interior they may be going. And it is usually in the fall of the year that people outfit for winter Consequently that is one reason for the present large number of people in town,
 Here is where the hunter, trapper and prospector outfit. Hunting and trapping is chiefly winter vocation. while it is also a well known fact that most of the distant prospecting is done in the winter also. For that reason there is always large num- Der of people in town in the fall.
 Numbers of those who come here to outfit get away before the close of navigation, or during the time that they can get their outfits up the side streams with motor boats It is those who come late and who are forced to wait until after the trails get good to transport outfits who fill the hotels of the city during the latter part of October and the early part of November every year.

 PENSACOLA HARBOR
SEVERAL VESSELS GO TO BOT TOM, WHILE OTHERS SUFFER GREAT DAMAGE-WlND VERY hiGH-ONE LIFE LOST

PENSACOLA, Fla, Oct. 1S.-As the result of the visitation of one of the most terrific hurricanes this coast has known for many years, several vessels have been sunk in the harbor here, and numerous oth- CTS are damaged so badly that it is doubtful if they can be repaired. Only one life has been lost, as far as is known, although it is believed that the death toll of the storm will mount up with the passage of time, or as soon as some of the small towns along the coast can be heard from.
 The storm was the most fearful ever experienced here. The wind was terrible in it's intensity, its ve- locity being about IA miles per hour as registered upon the velocity reg istering instruments.
 The vessels in the harbor were sunk by being thrown against each other in the maelstrom. All of their occupants made their escape to the shore.

Chimneys fell and buildings swayed in many towns in Georgia, Alabama and Tennessee, but no very serious damage is reported.

Associated PressD

BLISS, Okla, Oct. 1S.-The south bound passenger train on the Atchi- son, Topeka X Sante Fe railroad was held up and robbed near here to- night The express car was dyna. mited by the bandits, who shot and killed Express Clerk Noman when he objected to their entering the car. The amount of money which was stolen rom the safe has not been ascertained but 1t is believed to have been thousands. The bandits made their escape after committing one of the most sensational robberies in this state for many years.
 But little in the way of clews was left by the robbers, who used an au- tomoble in their operations. The train was stopped in a particularly quiet spot by the danger signal ruse and the locomotive disconnected The express car was then blown and the nessenger killed, when, after hearing the sounds of the explo- sion, he opened fire on the bandits in an attempt to keep them from entering the car.
 None of the passengers were mo- tested, except that bandit stood on either side of the train, firing up and down the track In order to keep the curious ones on board, In true wild west style.
 The telegraph wires had been cut prior to the robbery. Therefore it WAS some time before a sheriffs possee was on the track of the bandits, and it is therefore believed that they will make their escape.
 None of the trainmen or passen- gers who were on the train are able to state just how many bandits were engaged In the robbery, the ac- counts running from four to ten.
