 GUN FIRE

LONDON, Jan. II. - The war office issued an official bulletin this morn ing announcing that the Turkish forces which have been attacking the British positions at Kutelamara in Mesopotamia, had been repulsed with great slaughter.

AUSTR|ANS AR [ ADVANCING IN
 SERBIA

PARIS, Jan. II. The Austrians invading Serbia are continuing to ad- vance into the interior and are fore ing their passage through the noun tain passes. The Austrians are in an overwhelming numerical superiority over the defenders. but despite that the Montenegrins are fighting bravely and are making Desperate stands at every opportunity. The A5strians seem determined to accomplish with Montenegro what the Bulgarians and the Teutons did for Serbia, but they are suffering heavily in the attempt as their losses to date have been tre- mendous, it requiring large sacrifices of men to drive the Montenegrins from their mountain strongholds.

BRIBERY CHARGED ALASKA COAL
 CASES

CHICAGO, Jan. II. - An echo of the famous Frost trial in Chicago on criminal charge for attempting to unlawfuIly obtain coal lands in the Matanuska region of Alaska, was heard today, when 1t became public that o. w. Burke. former mayor of Blue Island, Illinois, had been arrest ed by the federal authorities charged with bribery The specific allegations in the information charges Burke with having accepted a bribe of five thou sand dollars for bringing in a verdict of not guilty in favor of Albert Frost and the other defendants. Burke was a juror in the famous case in which the well known Nome lawyer, Fink, represented the defendants, the charge being that Frost and his asso- ciates had conspired to obtain the coal lands by using dummy entrymen. Burke was unable to obtain the neces- sary ten thousand dollars bail when arrested, and in default thereof was confined in the county jail.

MINING OUTLOOK AS VIEWED BY
 GOVERNOR

In his annual report Governor Strong thus treats of the mining in dustry in this section:
 The development made up to mid summer gave promise that 1915 would be the most profitable year fin the history of Alaska copper mining. The financial stringency and collapse of the copper market that followed the breaking out of the European war not only closed down some of the produc-
 ing mines, but also put a stop to some very important developments Up to about the first of August six copper mines were in operation, but at the close of the year only three were working. Had it not been for the war at least nine copper mines would have been ready to ship ore before the end of the year. Probably the most i'm portant events of the year to the cop per industry of Alaska were the re opening of the Mamie mine, in the Ketchikan district; the installation of shipping plant and the opening of the Midas mine, near Valdez; and the completion of aerial trans at the Jumbo and Mother Lode mines, in the Chitina district.
 The Kennecott Bonanza copper mine continued operations throughout the year, and the total length of un- derground workings is now about A. 900 feet. An aerial tram has been built to the Jumbo mine, where the ore body has been opened to a depth of 400 feet Some ore shipments were made from the Mother Lode mine. Developments were continued on the Hubbard & Elliott property by long adit tunnel on the Albert Johnson claim, and work was done on the pro perties of the Alaska Consolidated Copper Company and Great Northern Development Company, and on the Rarus group of claims in the Kusku- lana river basin.
 Four hydraulic plants were oper ated in the Nizina and one in the Bremner district, as we'll as eight or ten smaller plants.
 The placers discovered In the basin of the Nelchina river, tributary to Tazlina river. in 1913, have not proved either rich or extensive. Auriferous gravels were found on several creeks, but only those on Albert creek have proved rich enough to exploit, and the output of gold so far has been in

IF TIE CUTTERS
 ANCHORAGE

On Tuesday last the vanguard of tie outfit operating at Point Pos session under two contractors from Seattle by the name of Sutherland X Brooks, begun to arrive in town, talk ing up their quarters at the Seattle rooming house. But before this ar ticle is printed the whole crew may have arrived, if not dead on the trail through lack of food or clothing to keep them from freezing to death, and add more tragedies 10 the long list in the northland.
 It seems these two contractors hired the men in Seattle to go to Point Possession to cut ties, and they arrived at that place October 12. They were to receive 15 cents for firsts and F 1-2 cents for seconds, and have received no pay at all yet. The contractors agreed to furnish everything, but did not fulfil that agreement either, so when the men arrived at Point Possession some of them had barely footwear enough to cover their feet, expecting to be sup piled upon their arrival. They were also told that a six months supply of provisions had been sent in with them, when they had scant two months supply, thus running low when navigation closed.
 They remained, however, until every hope had fled, some freezing their feet and hands, and others their faces in the cold, raw winds, when at last they were forced through hunger and cold to leave the camp and at tempt to reach Anchorage, which they did after more narrowing experi- ences than the combined forces of Europe are now undergoing.
 After their hard work at Point Pos session, and with all their hardships, they succeeded in cutting 10,730 ties, which they were compelled to leave on the ground for lack of transporta- tion facilities in getting them out, and they report four feet of snow in places, which will keep them hidden until spring before they can be re- covered.
 It is reported that the party con- sisted of 16 men when they left Point Possession for Anchorage, distance said to be about 200 miles over the trail, and the men claim many of them had barely enough covering for their feet to reach here. They were on the trail fourteen days, and allege that the contractor, Brooks, gave
