SALMON BANNERS EXCEED OUTPUT
 OF YEAR 1916
Southeastern Alaska Is to the Front with an Unusually Large
 Pack.

The Southeastern Alaska salmon canners stepped to the front this year and put up so much canned sal mon that the production from the First Division exceeded the total pack of the remainder of Alaska by 882,449 cases. and the production from Alaska this year exceeded the pack of 1916 by 447,460 cases, in spite of the fact that the Central and Western Alaska sections fell short of their pack of the previous year. Southeastern Alaska exceed ed the 1916 pack by S01 ,091 cases.
 Figures compiled recently show that the pack from Alaska this year is big one and exceeds last year in spite of the fact that the Central Alaska section fell short Of last years pack by 34S,419 cases and the Western section fell short by 5,212 cases.
 This bears out the prediction of The Empire, made early in the sum mer, that the Southeastern Alaska section would be the only one which would come up to it's last years ii gures and would be called upon tc pack enough fish to bring the total up to the mark of last year. The canneries of this section reaped g harvest this year and it is entirely due to their huge pack that this years production was larger in the number of cases than last year.
 The figures on the pack as giv en out show that Southeastern Alas ka this year packed total oi 3,O24,749 cases, or S01 ,O91 more than 1916 when the production was 2, 223,658 Central Alaska this yea, packed 737, 300 cases, or 348,419 lesf than 1916 when 1,085,719 cases were packed. Western Alaska packed 1, eos, 900 cases this year or 5,211 cases short of 1916 when 1,61O,212 were packed.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 11-That the final drive for food conserva ton pledges will be made during the week of October 21 to 2S, is the message received from the Food Administration at Washington, by Ralph P Merritt, Federal Food Com missioner for California this morn ing
 The enrolment campaign is or ganized by states and most of the states have already completed theii preliminary arrangements for as surfing the complete success of the wenty-two million families in the United States and the enrolment of every man and women of this nation in a mighty food conservation army that will win the war is the task that the Food Administration has undertaken for the week of Oc tober 21 to 28.

NEW GOVERNMENT IS TAKING ACTION TO
 GET BACK CONTROL

ATHENS, Oct. 1.-The new gov ernment, which succeeded that Oi King Constantine. has adopted radi cal measures toward the Supreme Court. or Areopagos. on the charge of having used it's high, judicial func tions. for political ends in protect ing the officials of the late king and permitting the persecution o! the Venizelos element. The Chiel Justice, Associate Chief Justice and five associate justices have been summarily removed. and some sixty judges of courts below the supreme court are similarly displaced. Such sweeping overthrow of the judic iary has never been known before.

 KING CONSTANTINE WAS GIVEN CREDIT BY GERMAN NATION

t
 ATHENS. Oct. 1.-The German advance of $2O,000,O00 to the recent government of King Constantine was financial transaction quite out of the ordinary, as now developed unl der the fierce scrutiny. of the veni. zelos government which displaced the Constantine regime s. <.
 As summed up by M. Venizelos himself the peculiar features were: While a huge sum was involved yet no real money passed from Der lin to Athens. as it was all a credit transaction to be settled after the war" Also. although no money passed, Greece finds herself obligat- ed for this $2o,O0O,OO0, and is pay ing interest oh it at per cent. Fl nally, as stated by Venizelos, the depreciation of the German mark was such that of the 2O,oOO, 900 on ly $120O0,O0O was realized, making a net loss of .$8,000, 900.
 The German advance was made about year ago, at the time the Constantine ministry needed funds to pay the army which had been mobilized. For Some reason, how ever. it was decided to make it a secret transaction, and not inscribe 1t in the budget or report it to par liament along with other loans. This was about the time the Entente Al lies presented an ultimatum demand Ing the demobilization of the Greek army, which probably accounts for the loan being kept a secret.

LIMIT IS FIXED ON
 EXPORT OF SILVER

TOKYO, Oct. 11.-A limit on the export of silver both specie and hullion is fixed under a special or dinance issued by the Ministry of Finance.
