FEET ARE FROZEN
 F0RDlNG 4 STREAM

ANCHORAGE, July 1S.-It would make good story in the sweltering east and possibly tend to alleviate the intense situation where even THc breath of the tale would have a cool ing effect and it nay sound strange and fctatious to the newcomer but the following story is truth and not fiction coming from the reliable source of Chief Wardell and substan- tiated by the victim of frozen feet who was brought into Anchorage Sun day morning. According to his own story Henry Jacobson, strong husky longshoreman in the prime of
 life. was en route from Seward to An chorage over the trail. coming to this city to seek employment with the Com mission.
 He made the trip as far as Glacier creek without mishap. but found the Glacier creek ford impossible on ac- count of the high water and he at tempted to go around the head of the creek. which finds its source in the mountain of ice in that vicinity. As he was wearing leather boots. with out corks. the going was too slippery he foolishly removed his boots and made the circuit in this manner and as a result froze both feet, the left one Qufe severely.
 He was fortunate in finding some old gunny sack and with this for GOV ering made the distance of 40 miles to Tom Bush's road house at Mile IS, being forced to crawl the last few miles. taking him over two hours to make the last mile
 Mir. Bush telephoned in to Chief Wardell, who sent NagIe. the transfer man after Jacobson. returning Sun day. Jacobson was taken to the fed eral jail where he is being treated by Dr Kyvig. who says the injuries are very painful but not necessarily fatal and that Jacobson would be out and around in week or ten days.-An- chorage Times.

 He received the decoration of the Legion of Honor December T for rvowess in the air and devotion to lis country
 The proclamation thrown on Ser line Is described by French authorities ss consisting of an impartial state ment on the causes of the war and the principal reasons why the en- tente allies are bound to win. and concluding with these words:
 By the wholesale massacre Of in nocent women and children and by her brutal methods of warfare Ger many has ahenated the sympathies of neutrals and the number of her enemies grows daily.
 The allies are firmly resolved to go on until the utmost limit. You are fighting for your steel kings. your sQuirearehy your land grabbers. We are fighting for the liberty of all against the tyranny Of military caste
 We desire to punish the guilty. We wish to make a repetition of the present carnage impossible and that object will be attained if in Germany the people possess the right to decide questions Of war and peace for them selves"

Omaha Railroad Officials, With
Exception of Union Pacific,
Give Out Figures.
ABOUT 5000 MEN HERE
Omaha Men Affected.

While the exact figures are not OBJ
tainable, it is believed that if the
trainmen should obey the order to
strike, something like 5000 men
working in the local terminals and
running in and out of Omaha would
be affected. In general way all of
the railroads, with the exception of
the Union Pacific, have given their
estimates of the number Of employees
who might be affected
Refuse to Give Out Figures.
The Union Pacific refuses to give
any figures or make any estimate of
the number of men who might, or
might not strike, General Manager
Jeffers saying:
TO give any estimate would be
presumption that the men are 60
ing to strike. | do not believe they
are and do not care TO speak of the
number who would be affected by
the strike order"
Men, however, who are in touch
with the situation estimate that if
lHS oll INC Is liOt SSllltu prior 10
Labor Day, the Union Pacific train
men will go out with the men of the
other roads and that there will be
about 700 of them who work in and
out of Omaha, and are employed at
and around the terminals.
Occupations Affected.
The reference to the men hereto
fore mentioned, inclueds those of the
train crews, together with the en-
gineers and fremen and switchmen
working in the yards here, in South
Omaha, on the Belt line and in Coun-
Gil Bluffs.
Local railroad officials arc taking
a rather optomistic view OF the situa-
ton, contending that when the strike
order is received by the men large
Of them will fail to obey it
and instead of doing so, will remain
loyal to the companies and continue
on their trains. The officials assert
that this rule viii maintain particu-
larly with the older men and those
who have been in the employ of the
companies for a long time.
