CHINESE REBELS CONFER IN
 JAPAN

TOKYO, March 20. - Tsen Chun- hsuan, a central figure in the present uprising in Yunnan province, China Is in Tokio in conference with Dr. Sun Yat Sen, the Chinese revolutionary leader of former days, who is politi- cal refugee here. What part Dr. Sun may be taking in the Chinese revolu- ton is hard to say, but the fact that he has received Tsen is indicative of his interest. Tsen, who has been spoken of as the man who might be- come president of China in case the republican army of the south should succeed in establishing a southern government, is not supposed to have been in harmony with Dr. Sun, but re gently their relations have become friendly.

PRESIDENT WILL CONTROL THE
 RESERv|STS

WASHINGTON, March 21. - The House resumed the debate on the army bill favorably reported by the House committee on military affairs. An amendment which caused much debate, was one giving the President absolute control of the, reserve sixty thousand men which the measure pro vides for. The bill as prepared by the committee originally provided that the reservists could not be mobi- lized unles sthe necessary authority had been granted by Congress. The amendment was adopted after a spiri- ted debate. although the vote was not close. Another amendment adopted was one which provided that the com manding officers of the army may dis charge men who show that they are peculiarly efficient after one years  training. These men will thus go into the reserve after only serving one year instead of the usual enlist ment period of four years. These men who are so favored will be com pelled to remain four years with the reserve for the three years they avoided serving with the colors. Chairman Hay, who sponsored the committees bill, opposed this amend ment, but it was adopted by roll call over his objections. He declared that if adopted it would seriously impair the efficiency of the army.

RUSSIANS FORCE. AUSTR|ANS TO
 EVACUATE

VIENNA, March 21. - The war of- flee announced unofficially today that the Austrian troops operating north west of Uscieczko, on the Dniester river, near the border of Bukowina' were forced to abandon their position because of the pressure exerted by the Russians, who attacked in far SUI perior numbers. The bridge head and
 the Austrian Qualifications were evacu- ated and the soldiers forced to re tire, the Russians capturing some of the Austrian attachments. The re maining Austrians had a running fight with the Slavs, being forced to cut their way through the Russian lines to reach the Austrian advanced

ALASKA STEAMSHIP COMPANY
 WANTS MORE VESSELS.

"The Alaska Steamship Company made more money on the recent char ter of the freighter for one year than it made on all of its fleet last year. " This statement was made by R. w, Baxter vice-president and general manager of the Alaska Steamship Company.
 We are in Alaska to stay, and we propose to expand with the great de- velopment of that great country. We will keep our fleet there and not one vessel is for sale In fact, this com pany wants to purchase three or more right now"
 MT. Baxter made the general state ment owing to the reports, that on ac- count of the shortage of tonnage on the Pacific coast steamers were com manding high figures, and it was ru- mored that several of the largest steamers of the Alaska Steamship fleet would be sold. The statement of MT. Baxter puts the quietus on all rumors.

GREECE MAY BE STARVED INTO
 WAR

ATHENS, March 21. - Greece is much more likely to be starved into war than Germany is to be starved out of it." said a prominent official of the present Greek government to the Associated Press correspondent. The expression is scarcely accurate. for while the prices of the ordinary commodities of life, and especially foodstuffs, have in many instances doubled and in virtually all instances greatly increased in the past year, the fault is largely with Greece. If there be serious discomfort in the country it is quite as much due to bad internal management as to the mas tery of the Mediterranean maintained by the Franco-British fleet, The starving" process, therefore, is much more apt to lead to trouble for the present Greek cabinet than, unaccom- panied by any other circumstance. to Greece's enforced participation In the war.

WILLARD MORAN FIGHT WILL JET
 MONEY

NEW YORK, March 21. - With but few days intervening before the principals enter the ring, the Willard Moran bout has already broken all financial records for pubilistic bat ties held in New York state. The ac- tual receipts for tickets sold and paid for to date is, in round figures, $75,- GOO. In addition to this sum tickets valued at $20,000 are being held for persons who have not as yet taken up their reservations. Of the $125,000 worth of tickets originally printed, but 80 900 remain unsold, and the major ity of these are the three and five dol lar seats which will not be put on sale until the day before the bout.
 The heaviest sale has been made in the twenty-five dollar reserved and box seats, although there is a big de mand for the ten and fifteen dollar coupons. Notwithstanding the care exercised by the promoters a consider able number of tickets are finding their way into the hands of speculat- Ors. and the indications point to these gentry reaping a royal hardest, since one box has already been sold for $500, which is several times the face value of the pasteboards.
 The demand for seats from out of town points is the most surprising feature of the advance sale. Fully 40 per cent of the tickets disposed of to date have been taken by mail and tele- graph applications from the large cit ies of the Middle West, South and New England. Chicago. Pittsburg, Boston, Cleveland and Detroit put in large applications. with scattering re quests as far west as Kansas City.
 This advance sale clearly indicates that the receipts for the ten round no decision bout scheduled for March 25 will surpass by more than fifty thou sand dollars the largest gate ever col lected for such a contest in New York State, and with the exception of the Johnson-Jeffries battle at Reno, Ne vada. July 1, 1910, the largest in the history of the prize ring. The gross receipts of this bout were $210.755. Jeffries and Sharkey drew S66,300, when they fought at Coney Island in 1899; Gibbons and Mcfarland boxed before a $5S,069 gate when they met at Brighton Beach last September, and the CorbettM Mccoy contest in New York city on August 30, 1900, drew $56.350 The Gans-Nelson, Johnson Burns and Johnson-Willard bouts held respectively at Goldfields, Sydney and Havana, brought out gates that ranged between $66,ooo and $69,- GOO.

OLD PROSPECT
PROVES VALUABLE
High Prices Of Metals Make Old
Property in Moleen Canyon a
Valuable Possession.

An old prospect hole one and half
miles from Tonka in Moleen canyon
has been relocated by Ike Cowling
Bert Harmer and Frank w. Smith
and with copper and silver at theil
present price they have valuable
holding.
The property was originally located
and worked by the late G. w. Weston
After his death 1t was abandoned and
forgotten until a few days ago when
it was relocated as stated above.
About fifteen years ago Mr.. Weston
sank shaft about fifty feet on the
property, and then sold it for $4,000
receiving S2500 in cash. The buyers
failed to make further payment and ii
reverted to him. He did his assess
ment work for few years and then
abandoned it.
There are between one hundred and
two hundred tons of ore on the dump
and general assays show one and one
half ounces of silver and about seven
percent copper. Picked samples show
$4.95 in silver and 24A percent cop
per. AS the property is only half a
mile from w. p. side track, and OF
easy access. the entire dump will pay
to ship.
The owners intend to start work
on the property and to ship ore at
once. 1t is said that they have a
vein of shipping ore lying in a con
tact of lime and porphyry. From re-
ports as given to us the owners will
realize handsomely from their prop
erty.
