Montenegro Yields.

Whether King Nicholas will con-
tinue the unequal struggle Is consid-
cred doubtful here. but the accepted
view among the best posted men in
London is that Montenegro has vir-
tually passed under Austrian control.
The chief significance of this does
not lie in the small territorial acqui-
sition, which is less than Serbia, but
in Montenegro's Adriatic front lying
alongside the Austrian main often
sive naval station of Cattaro, where
today's dispatches announce the en-
tire Austrian fleet including three
dreadnaughts, is assembled and from
which the recent naval raid against
Italian troops going to the relief oil
Serbia was made.

idriatic Austrian Sea.

This further extension of Austria's
Adriatic front with the dominating
naval ccntei OF {. .ttaro, IL viewed as
further tending toward the reali2a-
ton of Austria's object Of making the
Adriatic an Austrian sea and thus
checking Italys ambition to make II
an Italian sea.
Italy had so much at stake that Of
ficials and diplomats had been walt
ing anxiously for the steps Italy would
take to relieve Montenegro and at the
same time avert another Austrian ex-
tension ON the Adriatic. They were
aware that Italy had once before pre-
vented Austria from gaining terri
torial concessions from Montenegro
near Cattaro. by emphatically object
ing to the treaty made in 1919. rs
Italy was then a member of the trip'a
alliance. Austria reluctantly yielded
to the italian objection.

THE 'MOVIE" WORLD.
Plenty OF Interesting and Instructive
Pictures at Both Local Theaters.

f. G. Burr is making quite a sue
cess with his latest serial, "The
Strange Case of Helen Page" This
picture has only reached its third cpl
sode and as each chapter is complete
in itself, the picture can be taken in
at any time without losing the thread
Of the story. The picture is peculiar
in that it starts at practically the end
Of the story before the famous trial
and works back to the causes and
chain Of events leading up to it it. 1t
is well staged, has first class actors,
and Mr.. Burr is doing as good screen
work as can be found anywhere. Mon
day night audiences are growing.
Every night finds something interest

is still adding to her Iaurels on Thurs

Of its worth and more than likely Will

SAGA OF THE ICEBERG.

Monarch of the main am I,
Snow born, cons old;
In the waste places of the sea I hide,
Fog developed, silent, cold.
The winds that prowl around me
Naught of tidings bring;
They keep my secret counsel,
Then the wailing death-dirge sing.
Through the wrack of midnight /
Loom, a spectre white;
Crush man-built ships as egg-shells,
RemorseIess, with careless might.
The gulls fly about my peaks,
Seals make me their rest;
Man I strike with icy terror numb,
Hurl him frozen from my breast.

WILLARD MAY RE CANDIDATE
 FOR DELEGATES SEAT IF

 That was the way MT. Willard dis cussed his candidacy with an Empire representative the other day while he was in Juneau en route south on the Admiral Evans.
 MT. Willard was asked point blank whether he was'a candidate or not. He stated that many had asked him to run and if
 MT. Willard said he had been ac- tive in the business development of Alaska and had always participated i'll small way in the political .devel- opment. He had not thought very se- riously of the delegateship. If there is to be quiet election. and provided Delegate Wickersham is not shown to be formidable candidate, MT. Willard may consent to let his name go broadcast to be dallied with, if-. F if.

Down in Juneau a man placed sev- eral hundred thousand dollars in the hands of a friend, for safekeeping. After a time the pair fell out and engaged in a game of fisticuffs. The man who had deposited his money with his friend demanded it, and upon being refused went before the courts which decided that the money belonged to the man in whose pos session it was, as the fight had de, stroyed the rights of ownership. This is but hypothesis, and is the way that nations morals are subverted by mercenary matters in time of war But isn't it queer reasoning?

AUTOMOBILE LINE
 ID FAIRBANKS Frame Brothers will Operate Regular Service Between Valdez and
 Fairbanks Coming Summer.

The first announcement of the au- tomobile service for next season Is made by Grover Frame, who states that he and his brother will operate a line of Ford cars during the entire season of 1916. The service will be started as soon as the snow permits
 the passage over the summit and will
 be operated from Fairbanks south as far as the deep snow will permit,
 early in the spring.
 The outlook for the entire Panama and Yukon valleys is very bright and
 8 big passenger business is expected.
 The great saving in time by this
 route as against the all water route induced many persons to travel this
 way last summer, and in spite of the
 poor condition of the roads the trip was made in from sixty to one hun
 dred hours.

volve the destruction of many lives, it is true, and much money value,
 at trifling expense, comparatively speaking, and the end would justify the means. The inventor refuses to give any inkling of the means he would employ to encompass tho wholesale annihilation of a war fleet no matter how large it may be. He will submit his plan to the Navy Department, for fits adoption, should it be found practicable. The inventor, with true faith in his invention, de- clares that he is a patriotic American and that he has no desire to reap a fortune from his brain product, but that he will be quite content to hand it over to the United States for mo- dest consideration.-June Empire.

The United States wants all the powers to agree to disarm liners ab- solutely in time of war. Germany goes one better by announcing her decision to treat all armed merchant
 men as warships and informing all the neutral powers "that they may
 warn their citizens against further entrusting their lives and property
 to armed merchantmen belonging to
 the powers at war with the German empire.' Under the circumstances,
 however, there is little likelihood that
 the Allies will accept the American suggestion unless Germany scuttles all her own submarines-hut that
 brings up the same old endless chain controversy.

FOR BIG BUSINESS
All Transportation Companies Serv. ing Alaskan Ports Have Big
 Business in Sight for Season.

SEATTLE, Feb. 29.-The officials of all steamship companies operating to Alaska from Puget Sound antici- pate a record-breaking. business this summer and are making every prepa- ration for handling it.
 The operations of the Alaskan En- gineering commission are expected to keep several freighters employed in transporting supplies and material to the north. The commission has announced that if the full appropria- tion asked for this years operations are made by congress that between fifteen hundred and two thousand men will be employed and that a vast quantity of material will be required to be sent to Seward and Anchorage.
 The transportation companies op- erating to Southwestern Alaskan ports say they are sure of good busi- ness as the products of the mines in the Copper River valley and on Prince William Sound will furnish cargoes on the southbound trips. high price of copper has stimulated the mines to their fullest capacity and the ore shipments to the smelter are steadily increasing as new properties reach the shipping stage.
 Indications also point to heavier shipments than usual to interior Alaska and already there is q heavy demand for freight space on the first steamers leaving St. Michael after the opening of navigation on the Yu- kon route. u is also announced that several new steamers will be placed in commission on the Yukon river if the Alaskan Engineering commission decided to begin construction work from the interior end of the the rail- road during the summer.

The outburst of feeling in Japan against Great Britain finds it's source in mercialism-where nearly all international jealousies arise, direct ly or indirectly. England's position in China, if maintained, is a menace to Japanese designs. The Celestial republic is the battle-ground for a bloodless war that is developing, if not already raging, "etween the Occi- dent, represented by Britain, and the Orient, represented by Nippon. The Anglo-Japanese Alliance, because it is an unholy alliance, cannot exist long under such conditions.

A we'll known resident of South eastern Alaska claims to have invent cd a plan whereby he can destroy Inc combined fleets of the world. Their destruction, he says, would not entail an expenditure of more than fifty million dollars, and 1t would be complete. This death-deal- ing inventor alleges that he has given
 much thought to the perfection of 8 plan that would quickly put an end to all war. thus placing himself in competition with the great apostle of peace, Henry Ford. It would in
