 To All Americans
CAPTAIN OF DEUTSCHLAND SAYS THAT AMERICANS ARE
 GOOD SPORTS.

BREMEN. Aug. 27.-"You can send my love to all Americans. They are good sports and treat ed me royalty during my short stay in their country And am now able to tell my country men that the supposed animosi- ty of Americans toward Ger many does not exist"
 The above. in effect, was the statement made today to an Associated Press representative by Captain Paul Koenig, master of the German merchant subma- rine Deutschland, which recent ly returned from & successful trip to the United States, who Is now the guest of the city of Bremen. He further stated that his trip homeward was unevent- ful.
 The celebration of the Deutsch- lands return continued through out yesterday and last night. Captain Koenig has told the story of the trip several times. being practically exhausted as result of his speechmaklng.
 Yesterday the celebrating was done in a dignified manner and a number of men prominent in governmental, mercantile and shipping circles made speeches. Last night. however, the crowds became riotous in their glee. Thousands of people were on the streets parading up and down and singing Deutschland Uber Alles" to both the fatherland and the noble submarine Deutsch- land and her gallant commander.
 Captain Keonig and the mem- bers of his crew were the guests Of honor at banquet given last evening by the city authori- ties. Each member of the crew. none of whom is more than 22 years of age, was given an op- portunity to speak and to give his experiences during the trip across the ocean.
 One of the speakers was All fred Lehman, head of the navi- gation company which owns the Deutschland. He said that he was glad to see that all true Americans except those of Brit ish extraction, greeted the feat of the Deutschland as one of the greatest achievements of modern times

"Wick" In Seattle
 Is Enroute Home
DELEGATE FROM ALASKA IS NOW COMING NORTH TO
 START CAMPAIGN.

SEATTLE. Aug 27-James. Wickersham. delegate to congress from Alaska, arrived here this morning from the east and is registered at the Hotel Frye He will be here for a few days reCuperating, for he Is on his way north to start his campaign for reelection to the office he now holds. His campaign will probably be inaugurated on the coast, but he will end 1t at his home town of Fairbanks, where he expects to be on election day
 Delegate Wickersham states that he is making the race for the delegateship as a Republi- can. and that his petition is filed as a Republican, although he is not a nominee of the par ty. He expects that there will be considerable opposition to him from the Shackleford branch of the Republican party in Al aska, but states that such oppo- sition in Alaska is nothing new to him, as he has always had it Nor does he give the opposl- tion which will be made by the candidacy of Charles A Sulzer any serious consideration.
 Interviews with Delegate Wick ersham were printed in this morn ing's papers. He is quoted as stating that the present admin istration has viciously and un- reasonably fought his proposal to regulate the fisheries indus try of Alaska, and that as a re- suit the industry, valued at s20,- 000,000 annually, is being men, aced and is liable to become total loss.
 Mir Wickersham is extremely optimistic with regard to the future of Alaska in his state ment to the press, and spoke encouragingly of its development. Statistics show that Alaska is the most valuable territory that the United States ever owned, he said, and, as such, the United States government should give more encouragement to it's re sources. He pointed out the fact that the trade of the terri tory is increasing by leaps and bounds and that it now amounts to a vast sum annually. And he concluded his statement by asserting that cheaper transpor- tation is the key which will un- lock the resources of the coun- try

Blames Troubles
 On Motherinlaw

BOSTON, Aug. 27.-Benjamin Ay CTS of Somerville, told Judge Ham. ilton in the divorce court that his matrimonial troubles were caused by too much mother-in-law."
 T was married in 1911," said Ayers, testifying in his divorce suit against his wife, Eunice C., but my married life was not a happy one.
 My wife spent much of her time with her mother, who lived in the same apartment house that we did. On one occasion I saw my wife in her mothers apartment. There were two men present and considerable liquor in the room.
 "One day my motherin-law came into my apartment, My wife com plained about having a cold, which she claimed she got as a result of a window being left open in our apartment.
 You big brute said my mother in-law, addressing me. Don't you know enough to keep the window down.
 "Trouhle followed my wife final ly attacking me"

executives time to press their ar guments, and thus unduly influ ence him in their favor
 The attitude of those concerned with the strike situation is varied Garretson Is quite evidently ner- vous, Lee is abruptly non-commit- tai, Carter IS silent, while Stone is cynical with regard to the pos abilities of peaceful settlement of the situation. Lee attempted to discount the departure of num- erous employees, saying that they will all be present when the con ference is called Monday morning.
 Lee talked to the delegates at the Bijou theatre today, and said that the employees were getting tired of being "kidded along" He said the railroads were side-step- ping the propositions of the em- ployees. He told the men they would leave before sundown Mon- day, whether a settlement was made or not
 Strike orders have been printed in New York. and 1t is probable that they will be issued at another meeting in the Bijou on Monday Only a compromise can now avert the strike, and the strike leaders believe this improbable
 The members of the brotherhoods have been waiting for the President to take some action or issue some statement of his plans with regard to the situation, and have been holding back on that account. When they heard that the sub committee of eight had figured out another plan of arbitration, which did not contain the eight-hour provision, they absolutely refused to listen to it.
 Some hundred of the $40 dele gates, disgusted with the delays, and satisfied that no peaceful set clement can be reached have left for their homes It is admitted on all sides that the situation is much more serious now than 1t was at the very outset, and hopes for a peaceful settlement seem farther away after each conference.
