AMERICAN NOTE TO GERMANY
 |S FIRM

WASHINGTON, May 9. - In the note dispatched yesterday to Berlin the government accepts the declara- ton by the Kaiser of the abandonment of the former submarine policy. It is specifically stated, however, that the United States relies on the scru- pulous execution of the altered policy to remove the principal danger of an interruption of the good relations eX- isting between the two countries"
 With the acceptance of the German note is a formal notice to the German government that the United States cannot entertain, much less discuss, the suggestions that the rights of Am erican citizens on the high seas should in the slightest degree be made con tingent upon the conduct of any other government affecting the rights of neutrals and noncombatants.
 The reply of the American govern ment, when made public today, ere ated much comment among foreign diplomats. It is pointed out that while the German answer is accepted by the United States, the reply is brief and permits of no further correspondence Ii is now conceded that upon Germany alone rests the responsibility for the future relations between the two countries.

AEROPLANE MAIL BIDS OPENED
 MAY F

WASHINGTON, May g. - Bids for the aerial mail service in Alaska, for which proposals were recently asked by the postmaster general, will be opened here May F by the depart ment, A number of bids have been received, and inquiries indicate that there will be several other bids re- ceived before the date of opening them.
 The call asked for bids for carrying the mail between the coast and Fair banks, stopping at intermediary points practically on the same lines as the present winter stage service, which under the present contracts costs the government about $250.000 per year It is anticipated that the aerial ser vice can be secured for a much less cost, and the postmaster general will ask congress for an appropriation oi $50 900 to conduct the aerial expert ment. The plan has been endowed by the Aero Club of America, which de clares the plan is perfectly feasible.

Five of the crew of 107 were killed by the explosion. The survivors were landed at Bantry, Ireland.

FRENCH SUCCEED IN HOLDING
 DEADMAN

PARIS, May 9. After a violent bonn bardment of the French positions on Hill BOA, the Germans this morning attempted to advance, but were sue cessfully repulsed by the defenders with heavy losses.
 French counter attacks east of the Mouse drove the Germans from posi- tions recently captured by them north west of Thiaumont.
 It is asserted that the latest des- perate attempt by the Germans to force the French at Verdun have had the same result as those of the past six weeks. Outside of the gains made by the Kaiser's army in it's first on slaught of the French stronghold, the gains made have been of but slight importance, and every foot of ground taken has cost the Germans a life.
 The new German assaults at Verdun have demonstrated the high efficiency of the French machine guns. The front trenches contained machine guns with comparatively few men. After forty Hmus continuous bombardment the Germans stepped from the trenches for the charge The French machine guns thinued the German ranks before the advance had fairly begun. The losses to the Germans were greater proportiOnately than in any other action since the war began. One Prussian division lost over half it's strength.
 The battle shows every sign of con tinuiRg with unabated fury. Artil- lery preparations foreshadows fresh attacks on both banks of the Mouse.
 The Germans apparently are trans ferring large forces from other sec tions of the western front and from the Russian front for their attacks on Nerdun.

Cordova, May 6, 1916.

tOTuOkd, May O, i'io' MT. Ed. C. Russell,
 Editor Juneau Dispatch,
 Juneau, Alaska:
 My Dear Ed.-Since you took the opportunity at the late Love Feast" held at the Hippodrome in your city, to tell the people of Juneau and the First division all the inside workings of the Republican convention at Sew ard on April 19, and just why it was Judge Wickersham was not nomi- mated; and as you have seen fit to connect my name with the fiasco in such a way as to make it appear that the Copper river valley blocked the game and was responsible for Judge Wickersham not receiving the nomi- nation, feel, in justice to the people of that valley, where Judge Wicker sham has many friends, I should ad- dFeSs this open letter to you, giving tHe other side of the question.
 l am sorry that l could not have at tended the experience meeting at the Hippodrome. for you must have had a real nice time, judging from the loud and prolonged applause" @ so frequently accorded but I could not. In fact, did not know it was coming off, so will have to content myself yAcongratulating you on the splendid success of the meeting and the clear and explicit explanation as to why Judge Wickersham did not receive the nomination. as recorded in the paper of which you are editor.
 The paragraph which refers to the Copper river valley and myself, reads as follows:
 MT. Russell said that when the delegates entered the Seward con yention practically all of the delegates Were not in favor of Wickersham. The Nome, or Second division, delegation. was opposed to Wickersham. Thomas Lloyd, of Fairbanks, with forty-five votes, was opposed to Wickersham, and half of the delegation from the third division were opposed to him. But in the interest of harmony all of these, save George Hazelet, of the Copper river valley, were willing to swing their votes to Wickersham."
 Now Ed. if that is true, why was he not nominated? The convention con sisted of 220 delegates. If 60 dele gates from the Second division, 45 from the Fourth, and 30 from the Third were all willing to nominate Wickersham in the interests of har- mony, to say nothing about 60 from the First, which, according to all re- ports sent out from Juneau, were elected with the express and only ob- jechesto bring this about and make MT. Shatkleford delegate to the national convention, how. in heavens name was it that he did not receive the nomination? You give the Copper river valley and myself too much credit, my dear boy. We had nothing ,rbofavar tO cav q bout if
 I can tell you, however, in no un. certain language, why it was not done It&was not done because Judge Wick Aham would not stand to have his # ids and feet tied and a gag put
 his mouth. That was the reason nd the only reason, and you know it | and trying to shove the blame onto Hazelet and the Copper river valley will not do.
 Did you not walk the streets oi Seward, with the Resurrection river winds blowing through your lonl Ascks, hour after hour, waiting to re teive cables from Wickersham? Die you get them? No.
 Did you not come to me on Mair street. in front of the Overland hotel
