that is said or did Ly the sentiments of genuine friendship, which the peo, pie of the United States have always entertained, and continue to entertain, towards the German nation. It has, of course, accepted tEe successive eX- plantations and assurances of the Im- perial German government, as given in entire sincerity and good faith, and has hoped, even against hope, that it would prove to be possible for the Ger man government so to order and con- trol the acts of it's naval commanders as to square it's policy with the princi- ples of humanity as embodied in the laws of nations. 1t has been willing to wait until the significance of the acts became absolutely unmistakably and susceptible of but one interpretation.
 That point has now unhappily been reached. The facts are susceptible of but one interpretation. The Imperial German government has been unable to put any limits or restraints upon it's warfare against either freight or pas senger ships. It has therefore become painfully evident that the position which this government took at the very outset is inevitable, namely, that the use of the submarines for the de- struction of an enemy's comerce is of necessity because of the very charac- ter of the vessels employed and the very method of attack which their em- ployment of course involves, incom- patible with the principles of humanity the long established and incontroverti ble rights of neutrals and the sacred immunities of noncombatants.
 q have deemed it my duty there fore, to say to the Imperial German government that if it is still it purpose to prosecute relentless and indiscrim- mate warfare against vessels of con- merce by the use of submarines, not withstanding the now demonstrated impossibility of conducting that war fare in accordance with what the gov ernment of the United States must consider the sacred and indisputable rules of international law and the uni versally recognized dictates of hu- Ay States is at last forced to the con- clusion that there is but one course it can pursue; and that unless the Inl- perial government should now imme- diately declare and effect an abandon ment of it's present methods of war fare against passenger and freight ves- sells, this government can have no choice but to sever diplomatic rela- tions with the government of the Ger man empire altogether.
 q have taken it, and taken it in the confidence that it will meet with your approval and support. All sober minded men must unite in hoping that the Imperial German government, which has in other circumstances stood as the champion of all that we are now contending for in the interest of humanity, may recognize the jus tice of our demands and meet them in the spirit in which they are made"

hundred of citizens responded and were active in assisting the members of the department in fighting the flames or aiding the occupants of the threatened buildings to remove their furniture and effects into the street, out of the reach of the flames
 For time it was believed that the Liberty Theatre was doomed, but the flames from the White apartments were prevented from spreading in that direction owing to the fact that the four-foot space between the build ings had been hardpacked with snow.
 The business houses which were emptied of their effects when threat ened by the fire included the Love Whitley butcher shop, Kings grocery, The Pioneer Barber shop. Mrs. Win ter's ladies furnishings store, the Valdez Drug store. the office furni- ture of the Alaska Road commission, Mrs. Whitley's furniture from over the Valdez Drug store, George Reinke's iewelry store, the Minnesota -:ub boarding house the Pinzon bar, Pin zon Cigar store and Liberty theatre.
 The transportation companies fur nished teams and as the perishables were taken from the buildings the stuff was loaded onto sleighs and talk en to warehouses where they were protected from the frost.
 Several of the fremen were drench- ed with ice cold water at the begin ming of the fight with the flames. When they attempted 10 connect the hose with the hydrant in the rear of the Pinzon their mitts froze fast to the iron and prevented the couplings being made. Russell Herman's ears were frosted and others suffered frog en cheeks.
 Good work was accomplished by men with snoyels during the earlier stage of the fire as they kept the flames from breaking through where they would be famed by the wind.
 Inquiry among those whose effects were taken from the buildings and piled in the street shows that the peo- pie of Valdez have lived up to their reputation for honesty as all report that nothing of value Is missing. This is considered all the more remarkable when it is remembered that thousands of dollars worth of jewelry was en- trusted to the hands of persons who were practically unknown to the pro prietors.
 The big stock of the Pinzon Cigar store was quickly moved as was that of the liquor stock of the Pinzon Bar, hundreds of men and boys volunteer 1 ing in the work.
 1 Mrs. White lost all her pretty fur niture and hundreds of dollars worth of cutglass which she had received as wedding presents, but saved her dog and birds.
 Andy Marovich, who suffered the loss of his business, reports that he had just paid his rent and laid in a stock of coal amounting to several hundred dollars.
 Harry Whitley is congratulating himself over escaping with the loss oi only a few hundred dollars damage to his building and breakage in nov ing stock.
 During the fire the mecury in the thermometer at the court house stood at fourteen degrees below zero ant the water from the hose turned the huge piles of snow in the street into a glacier, ,--
