(By Associated Press)

CHICAGO, Oct. 13. The White Sox were the victors of the day and won three of the five games played in the worlds series, defeating the Giants by a score of to 5. The pitch ing staff was Russell and Cicotte for Chicago and Sallee for New York. Schalk was behind the bat for the White SoX and Rariden caught for the Giants.
 The Giants started off in the lead by scoring twice in the first inning. when they landed on Russell and Ci- cotte for three runs. The runs were scored by Burns and Zimmerman on hit by Kauff.
 Chicago got it's first run in the third, when Eddie Collins walked to first and scored on Felsch's double.
 The Giants again crossed the home plate twice in the fourth inning. Rari- dent and Burns singled and made a circuit of the bases on errors by J. Collins, Weaver and Gandil. Up to this time the White Sox were unable to solve Sallee's offerings.

COROOVAN TAXES A B BRIDE AT

A former Cordovan and employe of Skaters restaurant, was married at Fairbanks last week. and the Alaska Citizen, of that place. publishes the following account of the happy event:
 With none but the necessary wit nesSes in attendance at their wedding. MT. Roy E. Frankhouser and Miss Elm ma E. Baker were made husband and wife last night at the Presbyterian manse by Rev. w. s.

ALASKA JUDGES BEING WORKED
 OVERTIME

If the territorial legislature meets little more often, after awhile the judges of the district courts will have more titles and positions and work than would keep a regiment of clerks busy.
 The latest job to be slipped to the judges (without pay) is that of sort of adviser in chief superintendent or whatever you want to call it of the citizenship night schools. He also has to look after the indigents of the territory; after the pioneers, the sick and few other minor positions.
 The judges now only work from about 9 o'clock in the morning until midnight, disregarding the eight hour law, for the violation of which they are expected to punish others
 Yes, sir, two more terms of the leg islature and they will have the judges appointed auditors of all the business houses of the territory, and in their spare hours they may be expected to make predictions on the weather.

NOTOR TRUCK |S POPULAR IN
 DAWSON
(By Associated Press)

DAWSON, Y. f., Oct. 13. - The range of operations of the automobile in the vicinity of Dawson is being en- larged every season, and the volume of traffic handled by motor vehicles in this region is enlarging rapidly. With the remarkably successful intro duction of the tractor in hauling wood up Hunker creek from the Klondike river last winter, and the gradual ad- vent of the motor truck in this dis trict and the common use of the auto bile, the big share of the traffic of the camp is now being handled by mo- tor power
 As result of the increased popular ity and utility of the motor vehicle the roads surrounding Dawson are be- ing constructed more and more with view to adapting them to that style of traffic. During the dry period cars travel from Dawson 25 to 50 miles out with considerable ease. Granville 50 miles out, has been reached by cars during the dry season for several years. Quartz creek, 25 miles distant. also is reached by car, and it is hoped to have the road put in condition in time to get the cars through on that route as far as Black Hills and Eureka creeks.
 Money voted this year for the con nection of the most famous of Daw- sons scenic routes, that up Bonanza, into belt line, by repairing the up- per Bonanza stretch, was not used for the reason, it is explained, that the mining operations along that stretch would have interfered. Some recon. mend the switching of the proposed belt line to Quartz creek, which would make a circuit via Bonanza, Eldorado and Hunker.
 One of the most popular runs is up the Klondike river. In rainy weather the corduroy there becomes very slip pery and dangerous. Big wood and power operations up that river also make it a most important route A quarter of a million dollars worth of wood and logs come down the river each season.

]. {. BAN STEEL NECESS|TATED
 SAYS JAPAN
(By Associated Press)

TOXIC. Oct. 13-Baron Shimpei Goto, Japan's Home Minister, has characterized the United States ban on exportation of iron and steel as entirely necessftated by Gae war and as declaring that it is unreasonable for Japan to expect an absolute can cellation or removal of the embargo The only way for Japan to approach the question, he said. was to request some exceptional treatment affording Japan a smooth operation of the ship building industry He believed the steel question would be settled sat isfactorily. Baron Goto added:
 Recently the movement of the Jap anese business bodies opposing the American embargo on iron and steel is becoming stronger and some agi- tators at times indulge inutterances which are by no means pleasing to America to hear. Such an attitude on the part of our countrymen can not be recommended. They should observe an attitude of calm circum- spection seeking the solution of the problem by moderate and cOncilia- tory means. At the same time they must not begrudge making sacrifices fin the cause of the war"

VESSELS BE SOLD FOR
 INDEMNITY
(By Associated Press)

LONDON, Oct. 13. - Vessels cap tured or seized by Great Britain dur ing the war "in restitution for the de struction and plunder of the countries and shipping of the allies" should be sold and the proceeds applied as part Of the war indemnity, in the opinion Of a committee of members of the Chamber of shipping of the United Kingdom and of the Liverpool Steam ship Owners Association. This com mittee was appointed to ascertain what Great Britain's trade policy should be after the conclusion of the war. They recommend that the funds derived from the sale of enemy yes sells taken in war should not be ap- piled to reimburse British shipping owners or underwriters for lost ships. but should go to the general indemnity fund.
 The committee asserts that, in de- termining Britain's trade policy to be adopted after the war, it should be the flrst care of the state to do nothing to imperil the "preeminent position the United Kingdom holds in the in- ternational trade of the world.

MOTHER LODE TO SHIP ORE AT
 0NCE

James J. Godfrey, president of the Mother Lode Copper Mines Company came to CordOva on yesterdays train from Mccarthy, accompanied by Mrs. Godfrey, and will leave on the next steamer en route to New York, where they will spend the winter. MT. God. frey has spent the past couple of months on his property in the inter for, which will soon be one of the big copper producers of Alaska.
 A large power plant has been erect ed at Mccarthy and transmission lines run to the mine, a distance of fifteen miles, to furnish power for the new mill, just completed An auto road has also been built, and everything is now in readiness for the transports tion of ore from the mine to the Cop. per River railway at Mccarthy. The new mill will turn out fifty tons of high grade ore daily, which averages about sixty per cent copper. About 23,OO0 tons of ore have been blocked out at the Mother Lode mine. and auto trucks will at once begin hauling it to the railroad, from which point ship ments will start for the shelter about November l. It is estimated that B. GOO tons of this rich ore will be sent to the states during the coming winter.
