PETITIONS ID
 BE FILED SOON

That the petitions of all of the non-partisan candidates for the Al aska legislature will probably be on file with the clerk of the dis trict court before the end of the week, was the statement made last evening by Dan Driscoll. With the exception of those of two of the candidates. all of the petitions are now practically ready for filing. Those two are those of E. B. Col lins, of Fox, who is circulating his petition on Goldstream and other creeks, and Sylvester Howell, of Hot Springs. MT Driscoll received telegram from MT. Howell yes terday, in which the newest non partisan candidate for the legisla- ture stated that his petition is go- ing the rounds at Tofty and Hot Springs and will be ready to for ward to Fairbanks shortly
 But little activity is expected ill political circles, however, until af- ter the time for filing the petitions of the candidates, or about August 23. has passed. But it is expected that shortly after that time the mud singing will commence and that the campaign for territorial positions will be on full force.

PARIS, Aug. 13.-General Foch, from Peronne into the German line of defense, has reached the third line of the Teuton forces east of Hardecourt, according to bulletins published by the French war office this morning. And his maneuver has effected a junction with the British troops as far as the river opposite Buscourt, and the British and French forces are therefore working together along a front three and three-quarters miles in length. All of the German trenches attack ed today were captured, to a depth of two-thirds of a mile
 The bulletin also contains the announcement that the French cap tured 1000 Germans and 30 ma chine guns today at Maurepas, which is considered the strategical key to all of the German trenches in the Somme region. The French forces are nearing Clery, two miles north west of Peronne. Vigorous German attacks north of Hem and counter attacks at Clery and Maurepas, have been repulsed.
 At Fleury an artillery duel is in progress, according to war office bulletins. The operations at VauX are also chiefly confined to artil- lery. The French are reported to have made gains south of Thiamont.

 Woman of Murder
HUSBAND, BUT IS NOW THOUGHT INNOCENT.

CHICAGO. Aug. 13.-Mrs. Merle Davis, wife of the man who was found dead recently in the Congress hotel in this city, and whose demise was at tributed to poison placed in his food by the woman, has con- vinced the police of her inno- cence of the crime. She was being held under a charge of murder, and the police have been making an exhaustive investi gaton of the death of Davis which took place about a month ago.
 It was stated at police head quarters today that the inves- tigatlon has revealed the fact that Davis came to his death by his own hand. Nor was it a case of suicide, the death be- ing accidental, as nearly as can be ascertained
 Davis was a Canadian and Al askan mining promoter and wealthy He and his wife came EeTe SeNeIdl ulOIlHS dSO anu stopped at the Congress, They went about continually, but it had been noticed that Mrs. Davis went out considerably with other men. For this req son it was at first thought that she desired to get rid of her husband, and chose poisoning as the best method.
 Davis was also an assayer, and kept considerable quantities of all kinds of chemicals used in mining experiments in the rooms of himself and wife. These he was using continually, and it is now the opinion of the police, and their opinion is corroborative of the story told by Mrs Davis, that he took some one of the chemicals for medicine. mistaking it for salts.
