RECRUITING IS
 AT STANDSTILL Feeling of Unrest Said to Be Spreading in Canada
 Regarding War

Tho following telegram from Wash ington tolls of conditions in Canada after more than two years of war-two years in which Canada has stood nobly by the Mother Country, giving the flower of her manhood to fight wars not of her making:
 Early in the present year the Can adiau premier, Sir Robert Borden, pledged contribution of halfa million men to tho British army, but it begins Co appear that it will be exceedingly difficult, perhaps quite out of tho ques. ton, Co mako the pledge good. The total enrolment of recruits, 1t is said, has been 35l, ,l2S. In July, only S,552 enlisted in the whole Dominion. In the same month considerably more than s,5j2 men were killed, wounded and taken prisoners somewhere in France"
 Recruiting throughout Canada in consequence of the conditions just re terred to, is practically at staudstill, as the Toronto Globe sorrowfully ad. mits, saying in that connection:
 "So it is not only Austria and Ger many that can no longer make good the wastage of their forces. Canada has also reached that stage, and re- cruiting all over the country is prac' tically at a standstill."
 The leading newspapers of the De- miniou have been trying 10 find out the reason for the cessation of enlistments. There is a tendency to agree that first in importance ir the terrible slaughter in the British offensive. Several Cam adian regiments, it ia pointed out, have been almost entirely wiped out. This has damponed the ardor of those young men who otherwise might enlist in n spirit of adventure.
 Then there is a growing feeling that | Canada has already furnished more ] than her share of men to fight Eng. lands battles, and this has been strengthened by letters from Canadian recruits in England. who tell of thou sands of young Englishmen at the music halls and cricket games.

Krause Trial

The Territorial court at Juneau has been taken up practically all of this week with securing Q jury which will try Edward Krause on the charge of murder. Four special venires. ot twenty each have been issued for jurymen and Che panel is not yet full. Several residents of Douglas and Treadwell have been among those sub poeuaed but, up to yesterday evening, none of them bad been accepted. As one of Krause's alleged victime was a popular resident of the Island, it is not probable that his attorney will accept jurors from here.
 Later.-Just before court adjourned yesterday tho jury panel was filled and the trial of Krause began at 10 o'clock this morning with the following jurors in the box: s. Zenger, Louis Karsteu, Harry Mathews, c. W. Speer, Thomas O'Neil, Charles Sella, James Filzger- aid. Walter Johnson, A. P. Sipes, Nor man Worth, John Peterson aud c. P. Osterberg, Sr.

About Gasoline.

In connection with Investigations
regarding safety and efficiency in the
use of petroleum and its products, the
bureau of mines has made numerous
tests of gasoline. In Technical Paper
No. 1877, by G. A. Burrell, are stated
the hazards that may result from
handling these liquids and the precau-
tions to be observed.
Gasoline vapor mingles with the air
in the same manner that water vapor
upon the temperature of the air and
the readiness with which the vapor
can be obtained. IL one takes the
cover off full pail of tightly closed
gasoline and applies match to the
surface the gasoline will flare up and
burn as long as the gasoline lasts.
On the other hand IL one puts a few
drops OF gasoline in a small tightly
enclosed pail. waits a few moments
and then produces a flame or electric
spark. a violent explosion will likely
result
In the first case the vapor burns as
fast as 1t comes from the gasoline
and mixes with the oxygen OF the air.
whereas in the second case the oil
vaporizes in the pail and mixes uni
formly with the air 10 form an ex-
plosive mixture and upon ignition. ex-
plodes.
One gallon of gasoline when entirely
vaporized produces aboue 50 cubic feet
OF vapor. II lighted match could be
applied to pure gasoline vapor in the
absence OF air. no fire or explosion
would result. Al ordinary tempera-
lures air will hold from to rs per
cent of gasoline vapor. depending on
the grade OF gasoline. In 100 parts by
volume OF air and gasoline. an explo-
sion would not take place II there were
more than 6 parts of gasoline. or less
than IL parts. In other words. the
explosive range is between IA and 6
per cent OF vapor. One gallon of gas
oiine can. under ideal conditions. rem
