NOMlTES RETURN
 FROM MARSHALL

Messrs. Fred Daniels and William Doyle returned from a visit to Mar shall on the Victoria this morning and report that the new camp is a live ly one and that the paystreak so far developed is of more than average richness.
 The pay dirt on several of the claims discovered on Willow runs as high as six to seven dollars to the foot. On the ground leased by McGrath there is a paystreak 90 feet in width and from four and half to five feet deep that carries values of six and seven dollars to the foot of bedrock. The Waskey ground on the upper end of No. below averages about four dol lars. Nos 1 and 2 above also have pretty fair pay.
 All of the operators Were engaged in ground slucing and shoveling in dur ing the summer. The paystreak, so letI elo u ilclo ONIlA QCNClOpCNJ hiAS from No6 above discovery, which is located on one of the forks of Willow, to No. below. Below No. 3 the pay is thought to run into the bench as noth- ing has been found beyond that point
 Good prospects have been found on several other creeks in the district but there has been but little develop ment work and no paystreak has been developed. The ground averages from twelve to fifteen feet in depth and the overburden averages about eight feet in thickness.
 Nothing has been found in the new camp although there has been a small sized stampede from various outside points during the summer, Most of the visitors stay but a short while, however, as there is little to induce one to stay at present. The district is fairly well covered with scrub timber but the major portion of the pay district is above the tim Der line which ends at No. l below dis covery. The town of Fortuna Ledge Is located about half mile from dis covery claim and about three and half miles from the landing. The landing Is located on a slough about nine miles from the Yukon channel and freight and passengers are trans ported from the river by small boats.

 NEW YORK, Oct. 11.-Ambassa- dor Von Bernstorff announced today that Germany does not intend to re- sume the submarine warfare, despite the seeming indications of con- templated action of that nature em- braced in the attacks made by the German U boats off the American coast early in the week.
 The statement of Germany's inten tions was made following a long con- f3rcnce fctween the German repre- sentative and American Ambassador Gerard this afternoon.
 The meeting occurred at the Ritz Carlton hotel and was in response to an evident pre-arranged plan.
 The two government representatives remained closeted together for some time but, beyond the statement of Van Bernstorff. nothing has been given out as to the matters discussed.
 On retiring from the conference, Bernstorff stated in positive terms terms that the German government has no intention of resuming the sub marine war.

 The French movement is in an east northeasterly direction and extends over front of eight miles.
 The early morning reports indicate that the battle is likely to spread over the entire French front in the Somme sector. Heavy artillery actions are again developing around Peronne and are believed to be the prelude to general attack.

of the Teuton empire he added that Germany does not contemplate vio- alting her pledges to the United States in any way.
 The statement is considered of es- pecial significance because it is be- lieved that Ambassador Gerard brought definite assurances from the Berlin government and that Bern storfl received official information by the submarine U-53 last week.
 Gerard has so far absolutely refused to discuss the alleged peace proposals of the kaiser and ignores all questions on the subject
 The statement of Non Bernslortl relative to the German intentions Is undoubtedly one that will relieve the administration of considerable uncer- tainty as Washington statements indi- cate that the government was prepar- ing to enter q decided protest against submarine attacks on bellgercnt yes sels entering or leaving American ports.

Rural Credits Law Provides Longtime Loans to Farmers

Washington, July 22-The main points Of the farm loan act are
outlined briefly as follows:
The act provides for the creation of IL Federal land banks and
permits the establishment of any number of joinl-stock land banks
for the purpose of making loans at a reasonable rate of interest,
for long periods of time, on farm lands
A Federal Farm Loan Board has complete control over these
banks.
Twelve Federal land banks are provided; one in each of the IL
districts into which the country will be divided. These banks are
500 to $4,000 for approved purposes. The loans are to be made
through farm loan associations and agents. No loan may be made
for more than 80 per cent of the value Of the land mortgaged and
20 per cent of the value of the permanent insured improvements
upon it.
National farm loan associations-local organizations composed
exclusively OF borrowers-are authorized. These associations must
be stockholders in the land bank in proportion to the amount their
members wish to borrow. Eventually all stock in the Federal land
banks will be owned exclusively by these associations.
A reasonable interest rate is established. The act prohibits the
Federal land banks from charging more than 6 per cent on any
mortgage, or requiring fees not approved by the Farm Loan Board
The borrowers will share in the net profits of the bank because
they are stockholders. 1t is contemplated that ultimately the Dor.
rowers will be the only stockholders.
Long term loans are provided by authorizing mortgages for pe-
RODS of from five up to 40 years.
Small annual or semiannual payments on the principal are made
a required feature of all mortgages.
Jont-stock land banks are authorized. They are corporations
for carrying on the business of lending on farm mortgage security
and issuing farm loan bonds. They are to be under the supervision
of the Farm Loan Board, but the Government will not invest in
them. Subject to geographical limitations and subject to the so
per cent and 20 per cent limitation, these banks can lend to an in
dividual any amount they wish, and for any purpose. They can
not charge an interest rate exceeding 6 per cent and such rate
paid on their last issue of bonds. The mortgages, however. must
provide for amortization payments. These banks are prohibited
from charging, under any pretext, fees or commissions other than
those authorized by the act.

Reports from Washington in
dictate that the bill of Represen-
tative Mcclellan, of Tennessee,
which seeks to create the Tenth
United States Circuit Court of
Appeals will meet with frvr in
the senate and that the court
will soon be created. The neces-
sity for this court has existed for
a long time and the bill should
by all means be passed. The
business before the Court of APP
peals at New Orleans, which
handles appeals from this dis
trict, has been congested and
important litigation is too long
tied up in the court. Should the
court be created our fellow citi-
zen Of Aberdeen, Judge w. D.
Houston, will no doubt receive
the appointment, as he has been
very strongly endorsed for the
position and is eminently fitted
for its responsible duties. The
friends of Judge Houston are
pressing his claims and hope to
see him appointed by the Presi-
dent as soon as the new district
is established.
