STARTS MERCHANTS PATROL.

The announcement is made that E. J. Sitter has started a merchants patrol. MT. Sitter was formerly chief of police.
 .The creation of business pa trol effective from tonight, which will cooperate with the city pc lice of Juneau. as announced today is. indeed, a surprise to me- was the brief statement made by Chief of Police w. S. Harding.
 Continuing. Chief Harding stated that of the personnel of such a patrol he knew nothing; that no one had ever taken the matter up with him. nor in any way cooper ated or discussed the establishment of such a patrol or its system of op- erations. in so far as any connec- tion with the police department of Juneau is concerned.
 Mir. Sitter says his plans do not conflict with the police. His pur- pose is to give those who desire it nightwatchman's services, and pat ronage would be entirely voluntary

SKAGWAY ROAD IS
 NEARING ITS END

SKAGWAY, Aug. 2S.-Workmen are busily engaged pushing through the wagon road from Skagway to Liarsvllle, AZ miles from town. says the Skagway Alaskan. The stumps have all been pulled from the rightofway and the grader has been run over the way. The men are now laying a fine coat of gray el on the road. When completed the road will be twenty feet in width and cover a distance of over four miles up the Skagway River valley.
 People in the Garden City hope that this is the beginning of a road which has been advocated for a number of years to tap the Summit. Plans advocated call for the con struction of wagon road up the valley and over the Summit to the boundary line. where the Canadian government will then take up the proposition and push the road in- to the interior. By carrying to com pletfon this scheme it would be possible for automobiles to go from Skagway to Dawson and other in- terior points of interest

EXPLOSION AT NEM YORK WAS
 A DEEP PLOT
Detectives Unearth a Big Scheme of the Teu- tons in the U. s.
 and Canada.
ONE TOOL IS ARRESTED

DETROIT, Aug. Startling rev citations that may lead to tho solu- ton of the baffling mystery of the great explosion at Black Tom Island In the New York harbds. about a month ago. by which millions of dollars worth of munitions for the entente powers was destroyed are probable as the result of the arrest of a workman at the Canadian Bridge Works Company Walker vile.
 The man is suspected of being a tool in a widespread and clever plot to blow up entente munitions all over the United States and Canada by a most ingenious arrangement.
 Before the nose and cap Of the big shells manufactured for the Al lies are fitted. a solution of varnish is run through a center sore, thus painting the inside of the projectile. 1t is claimed by those responsible for the arrest of the workman that he was employed to introduce into the vanish a chemical solution de. signed Co caute premature eX- plosion after a limited period lt was such a solution, 1t is now said, introduced by treachery into some of the shells at Black Tom Island, that caused the great catastrophe that almost blew the lower tip Of Manhattan Island
 The workman arrested gave his name as ?. Bierlich. and claims to be an Austrian by birth Up to the present he has denied all knowledge of any plot.
 Some time ago he offered fore. man in the American Car & Foun- dry Company where shells are being made for the Allies, $50 if he would get him job in the department where the yarnish is poured in the shells" The foreman took the mon ey and turned 1t and letter writ ten by Bjerlich over to his employ ars.
 A few days ago another workman appeared at the Canadian Bridge Company Works and offered a fore man $25 for a job in the "varnish pouring" department. He got the job. but immediately was turned ov- CT to the Pinkerton men who were protecting the plant They qucs- tioned him and he declared that he had been offered $2OO by Bjerlch if he succeeded in getting into the de- partment and carrying out his in- structions
 Efforts now arc being made by the Pinkertons to trace the prnci- pal believed to be behind Bierlich. The latter is held by the Walker vile police pending inquiries.

NAVAL ROMANCE
 ENDS IN COURTS
Bride of Midnight Mar riage Accuses Her Husband, Who Is
 An Ensign.
SECOND WOMAN w CASE

SAN FRANCISCO. Calif., Aug. 25. (SpeciaD 1.-Two years ago Ensign Horace W. Pilsbury. United States Navy. and Miss Harrlett Prewett, Of Dallas. Texas. were principals in a whirlwiud courtship aud romantic midnight marriage in San Francisco.
 Now the names Of the young na- way officer and the beautiful girl whom he married on the eve Of his departure for the Philippines appear as principals In a separate main;en- ance suit filed by Mrs. Pinsbury.
 The complaint charges cruelty and declares that soon after the mar riage Piusbury applied vile and in- sultlng cpithets to his wife; finally accused her of improper conduct with other men; subjected her 10 the ridiculc of navy officers and their wives; deserted her at Manila and published notices that he would not be responsible for her debts
 Names Another Woman
 In addition to these charges. Mrs. Piilsbury declares that. while in Manila, her husband humiliated her by his open attentions to "a cer- tain Mrs. Pendleton." who is de. scrlbed as one of the Droprietors Of a well-known saloon in Manila.
 Ensign Pnlsbury is now in Chin csc waters with his ship His wife is with friends in this city, but her address is being carefully guarded by her attorneys.
 The marriage of young Pillsbury. who was but a year out Of Annapo- lis. and who was in this city CD route to the islands, was one of the most sudden and romantic that has occurred to startle naval circles here.
 Acquainted Only a Week
 He had met his bride hardly a week before the cremony. which took place at midnight on Aug. /, 1914. following a gay dinner at a downtown cafe, given to celebrate the wedding Of a fellow.officer.
 Mrs. Pitlsbury does not ask for a divorce. but declares she is withort funds. and demands a separate main- tenance allowance Of S1OO a morth.
