UNITED STATES HAS
 NO TASTE FOR DEFEAT

BERKENHEAD, England, Sept. 26.-After repudiating with scorn the calumny that England was res ponsible for the war, and after saying that if Russia had been a democracy in 1914 she would have defended Ser bia, premier Lloyd George said in re- gard to Americas part in the war:
 Beyond and behind all these things comes the great republic of the West. Her instinct taught her that freedom is in real jeopardy. and you can hear the tramp of her men and the hammering of her anvils. The cen tral powers are dealing, and they know 1t. with a country that has nev- CT yet been beaten, country of in finite resources, country where you have the qualities that make for en- terprise and endurance.
 Defeat would be new experience for America, and she has no taste for it (cheers and laughter). Unless l am mistaken in the news coming from America she is taking steps that will once more infict that experience up on her fOes."

AUSTRIA CANNOT
 HOLD OUT LONG

GENEVA, Sept. 26.-The Erie Zeitung of Berne publishes an article from a high Austrian official, who re- gently travelled through several sec tions of this country, in which the writer states that Austria-Hungary cannot hold out the coming winter owing to economic reasons. as both soldiers and civilians will be starv- ed. He gives several reasons, notably the almost complete destruction of the crops in the richest regions of Hung ary by the cold and heavy rain, while 100000 tons of Rumanian cereals could not be transported owing to lack of rolling stock, which first of all, is utilized for military purposes. In the meantime, he says, the neces- sities of life are mounting to extra ordinary prices.

BEAR CREEK WOOD-
 CHOPPER IS A SUICIDE

By telephone, the marshars office was notified today that John Nelson, of Bear Creek, had committed sui eide by shooting himself with rife. The details of the suicide have not been learned yet and will not be known until Commissioned Reed w.. Heilig and Marshal L. T. Etwin, who went out to investigate. return to town.
 The information obtained by the marshal's office is that Nelson was chopping wood on Bear creek for Leo Rogge. A few days ago he came to Fairbanks to telegraph relatives, to ascertain of he was of registration age, as he did not know his age. While in town he went on a spree that lasted for several days. While in this condition he spent all his mon- ey and telephoned to the creek to MT. Rogge, asking him to send some more money to town. This money was sent in.
 After another day in town Nelson returned to the creek and today tele- phoned to MT. Rogge to go to his place to measure up his wood. When MT. Rogge went there he found the cabin locked and when he looked through the window he saw the man lying in a pool of blood with a rife lying by his side.
 EAe mining man then telephoned
 arshal and immediately after ward Marshal Erwin and Commits sioner Heilig started for the scene of the tragedy to make an investigation.
 The remains will be brought to town and an inquest will be held.- Fairbanks News Miner.
