The steamer Dora reports a ninety mile wind at Kodiak last month.

Efforts of the navy department to cut down the cost of fuel and other materials used in maintenance or oper. ation of warsbips were outlined to the house naval committee by Rear Admi. ral McGowan, paymaster general. He was questioned at length by commit
 teemeu in connection with the naval appropriation bill. Admiral McGowan said oil was DO per cent more efficient than coal as fuel for warships, but that at prevailing prices coal was cheaper for the Atlantic fleet. The reverse was true on the Pacific, he said, but the opening of the Alaska coal fields by the completion of the government rail- road there, was expected to again make coal the logical fuel for the Pacific fleet. He said che department paid an average of 16 cents a gallon for the 80OOOO gallons of gasoline used last year, but that prices now were soaring.

C.L Andrews, for twenty years ss- sociated with the customs service in Alaska, in an article appearing in the January issue of the Washington His torical Quarterly, entitled "Marine Dis asters of the Alaska Route" reviews the death toll in Alaskan waters, and asserts that the governments policy in this matter has been one of repression, rather than assistance. Itis the fullest account perhaps yet made of the many lives lost for the want of proper aids to navigation along the 1000 mile channel from Seattle 10 Skagway. Mr. Andrews is working in the Bancroft library at Berkely, Cal at the present. time, on book which he intends publishing. Al aska is the subject. Mr. Andrews says that the government tax on canned salmon is less than l per cent, while the marine insurance on this same sal mon from Bristol Bay to Seattle is 3 per cent, and that because of the lack of aids to navigatin, the marine insur ance for this route is greater than in almost any other part of the world. "The rate from Seattle 10 Skagway," he says, 'is as much as from Seattle to Liverpool by way ofjhe Panama canal in times of peace

Newspaper in Berlin
Says Hughes Would
Mean Imperialism

Berlin, Nov. 10.-(Via Sayville)--
Taking 1t for granted that Charles
Evans Hughes has been elected presi.
dent, most of the Berlin newspapers to-
day published statements explaining
why. The vossische Zeitung attributed
the supposed result to the Wilson for
eign policy.
The Berliner Tageblatt asserts that
"President Wilson was defeated not
because of his foreign policy but for
other reasons.
This paper says that the American
people approved the Wilson attitude
toward the war.
The Targes Zcitung says that the
election Of Hughes means that the
money powers are now controlling the
United States government.
The general impression is that the
election Of Hughes means high tariff,
a neutrality-suspicious. policy and a
sterner attitude on foreign relations.

CUR DOG THERE WHEN
FRENCH TOOK vAUx
Germans Left Many Supplies
Some Of Them Much
Needed
By Henry Wood.

Omitted Press staff correspondent
With the French Armies at yerdun,
Nov 1.-THE only German occupant of
the shell-scarred, bathtered. but still
firm Fort Vaux, when the French
triumphantly entered it, was monde
script dog and he is now being treated
with all the honors of war--but out of
German supplies. Such was their haste
in abandoning the fort that the Ger
mans left behind million cartridges,
three thousand meat rations, three thou
sand bottles OF mineral water and large
quantities of anti-tetanus serums and
other drugs not obtainable outside Of
Germany,
With their artillery in place, the Fort
Vaux garrison now dominates the entire
woevre plains. New lines of German
entertainments are vaguely visible sew
eral kilometers off. They are in low,
marshy ground where it will be prac.
tically impossible to entrench firmly. !;
In the IL hours was in the fort,
from 6 Wednesday morning until dusk,
the Germans shelled it almost constant
ly, the big projectiles thudding down
every moment with clocklike regularity
Some hit the roof, making the whole
structure reverberate, but without doing
damage.
The garrison was gay and watched
with interest while the commandant
counted the hits. Lieutenant Diot, the
first French soldier to re-enter Vaux,
came up and laughingly saluting, '.smon
captain" said:
"The question Of your observation
post has been finally settled. A German
shell just destroyed the one you chose,
SO YOU will have to take mine.
The first intimation to the French
that Vaux had been abandoned came
when the Paris wireless picked Ger
man semi.official story to the American
press out of the SIR. The French had
then almost entirely surrounded the fort
and were shelling it with 400 millimeter
guns with precision which would have
made its continued tenancy by the Ger
mans impossible.
With the news Diot and his company
| Immediately entered and succeeded
with but few exceptions, in rendering

/ WILCOX GIVES UP
Conditions Discussed From
Every Angle, BY Leaders
| Who Lost
SAY OFFICIAL FIGURES
MAY SHOW HUGHES WON
Returns Show They Have
Nothing On Which TO-
Base Hopes
By Perry Arnold

Omitted Press staff correspondent
New York, Nov. ll.-Charles Evans
Hughes will let his telegram of con.
gratulations to Woodrow Wilson await
the official count Of the votes in Cal
ifornia, New Mexico, North Dakota
New Hampshire and possibly one OF
two other states.
If the official count confirms the
Wilson victory apparent now, it is the
republican nominees wish--and he is
the one who, being mainly concerned,
has the final say--that there be no
contest or court feoceedings.
The reason the republicans still were
unwilling to concede defeat is that in
the five states whose vote is still in
complete change of 5000 votes might
mean shift in the tide of victory from
Wilson to Hughes. Errors involving
several thousand votes frequently are
discovered in reeounts The republicans
hold they very easily may have been
made. in the excitement of tabulating
results of one Of the closest elections
lin American political history.
In round. figures, unofficial returns
show Wilson s lead in California about
1000; in New xe3icr, about 2,300; IN
North Dakota, about i..5UO; in Minneso
ia Hughes lead about 600 with the
soldier vote still to be counted)
while in New Hampshire there is les'
than 100 margin for Wilson. The elec
toral vote of these states where the
margin is less than 5000 votes totals
l37.
Hughes now has 243 votes in the elec
toral college about which there is lit
tile doubt. The republicans figure Min
nesota win also be his, bringing hi'
total to 255. That is IL less than the
266 majority required in the electoral
colleged. If recount should show New
Hampshire republican, bringing the re
publican total to 259 and Hughes shonlt
gain several of California's electora
votes on a split of electors, possible
under the state laws, he would arrive
at Tire place where North Dakota IS five
votes, or New Mexico s three, recountec
and found republican, Aight put hin
over, instead of Wilson.
The. endless conferences of republican
managers still were on today. They
were q few reeriminations at what thu
victorious democrats facetiopsly refer
