GERMANS LOSE $4,000
men IN FLANDERS

Paris. Aug. 29.-Germany has lost
more than $4,000 men in the Flanders
battle alone since July /.
The figures were compiled when the
assembling of data obtained from pris.
oncrs was completed
Prisoners say thirty.seven German
divisions. approximately $4,000 men,
have been engaged in the Flanders
sector since the first of last month.
Thirty OF these approximately 45O,-
600 mem have been withdrawn on &c.
count of losses.
The German high commands usual
practice is to withdraw division for
reorganization after its losses have
taken from 1000 to $500 men. Taking
this as basis it can be assumed that
II Germany has withdrawn thirty d.
visions her losses must be anyway
from $4,000 to 10000 Conservative
estimates place them above 10000.
Seven divisions that were on the
Flanders front July l are still there.
These estimates do not take into &C.
count the huge casualties the enemy
has suffered OF late around Verdun
and the Chamin des Danes.

Gr0nna As a Patriot

Congress leaders were talking of

tighten every section of the country of

ously. News Item.
When we read this we wondered if
Senator Gronna would be included in

kind of a patriotic speech he could
make 1t probably would sound some
thing like this:
"Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentle

gladness because seldom have an OPP
portunity of addressing such an intelli-

your country is at war. You probably
do not know this, but can tell you
that it is true. If you had stood in
the senate chamber during the past
few weeks and talked to empty seats,
as l have done, in order to block the
wheels of government and lessen our
efficiency in the war, you would then
realize that at last war is with us.

MRS. GEORGE WHITNEY
 IS DEAD AT OAKLAND

Mrs. George Whitney wife of Capt. Whitney, United States Inspector Of dulls in Alaska, died at Oakland, Cal, last Sunday morning, following lingering illness. The news was received this morning through a tele. gram received from Capt. Whitney, who had got as far as Seattle on the way to his wifo's bedside when he heard of her death. The receipt Of he news, while not unexpected caused profound shock to the com. munity.
 Mrs. Whitney was one of the most popular women in Juneau, where she has resided since her marriage to Capt. Whitney more than dozen years ago.
 Mrs. Whitney was a native of New Brunswick and came from the same community in which Capt. Whitney was born and reared.
 In his telegram Capt. Whitney said that he was hurrying to Oak. land, and that he would take his wifc's remains back to New Bruns. wick for burial.
 Mrs. Whitney has been i'll for more than a year. She spent last winter in the South for her health. She returned to Juneau last summer, ap. parently improved, but turn for the worse caused her to go south again last fall. Last week Capt. Whitney received word that she was sinking, and he left hurriedly hoping to reach her while she was yet alive. but death claimed its victim before he had got further than Seattle.
 Mrs. Whitney was active in church work and society while in Juneau She was a member of the Episcopal church.

PRIBILOF PELTS
 SHOW INCREASE
 AND BIG PROFIT
Gross Receipts for the Take During Winter on Islands About
 $28,OOO.

During the winter now drawn to close in Berlng Sea, there has been noteworthy increase in the number of fox pelts taken on the Pribilof Islands, according to a report issued at Washington. The total take on st. Paul Island was l49 blues and thirty.six whites, while on St. George Island the take was AT blues and two whites, total for both Islands of 5GG blues and thirty.eight whites, or a grand total of GOA skins for tho season.
 On St. George Island 4l3 foxes were marked and released, and many unmarked animals were known to be at liberty at the end of the trapping season. Owing to the scarcity of food, the number of foxes that can be maintained on tbese islands is limited, say government experts, and carefully restricted trapping, such as that carried on during the recent winter, is said to be beneficial 70 the herds.
 By way of comparison it Is stated that a year ago St. Paul produced 2l1 blues and eighteen whites and St. George Island 2O9 blues and two whites, or a total of 42O blues and twenty whites from both Islands, making a grand total of 40 skins
 Two years ago the take on &. Paul Island was 179 blues and thirty. nine whites and on st. George Island eighty blues and one white, or q grand total of 293 from both islands.
 Upon the basis of the average of S4S.2O for blue fox and S14.25 for white fox skins, received at ths St. Louis fur sale last September. the gross receipts for the past winters take should be nearly S2S.OOO

Memorial Urges S500,000 for Alaska Roads and Trails within
 Territory.
LONG AND HARD FIGHT
Was Lost on a Point of Order in House but Goes Back to Senate
 and Dies There.

The Alaska Legislature will ask Congress to retain the Alaska Board of Road Commissioners and approp. riatc $5OO,OOO for it's use in building and maintaining roads and trails in the Territory if @ memorial by Rep, resontativo A. A. Allan is adopted, Tho memorial is designed to be used in connection with the efforts to have Congress retain the provis- ion giving the Alaska Board of Road Commissioners $50O.OOO to continue their work in the appropriation bill that will probably be passed before the new fiscal year begins, July 1,
 This item was in the bill which he Senate was considering at the time the last Congress passed out of existence on account of the limi. tations of the Constitution. The bill died with the public buildings bill md a lot of others without action by the Senate. due to the filIibuster over the administration armed neu. ,rality bill.
 Fight Has Been Strenuous One
 The fight for this $5OO.OOO has been a strenuous one. The Secre- 'ary O; War at the recommendation of Col. w. P. Richardson. head of the Alaska Board of Road Commis. sioners, asked Congress in his an. uual report for an appropriation of $5OO,OOO for Alaska roads and trails. and for $lOO,OOO for the Gastineau Channel bridge. with power to con tract for the expenditure Of $2OOOOO more on the bridge. After consid- erable discussion. the House commit. tee on military affairs retained the S5OOOOO appropriation but eliminat. cd the Gastineau channel bridge ap. proprlation. Tn the House of Repre- sentatiyes when the bill was being discussed on the floor, a point of or der was raised against the Alaska roads item. and 1t was eliminated. It was said that the point of order was the result of suggestions made
The Alaska daily empire., 1917-03-28

by then Delegate James Wickersham.
 Senate Committee Restores Item
 A fight then began to have the
 item restored to tho army bill in the Senate. and telegram8 were sent to Senator George E, Chamberlain, chairman of the committee, by Gov. b. F. A. Strong, Judge R. w. Jen- ings. the Mayors of Juneau and Douglas, President of the Conner, cial Club, and other organizations and individuals in this city, and from all other Alaskan communities
 Senator Chamberlain had the it. em put back into the bill, and an. nounced that he would do his best to keep it there, and, though 1t would still be subject to a point of order, he said he thought 1t could be re. tained, Then the whole measure fell as stated
 Juneau Shows Up Well
 An incident in connection with this matter illustrates the broadness of public spirit and action on Gastineau channel. The people of this section were very greatly interested in the Gastiueau channel bridge proposition, Plans were made to hayo the recon. mendation of the Secretary of War for an appropriation of $1OO,OOO with contractural authority for $2OO,OOO ad- ditional restored to the bill in the Senate. and promises that practically assured the success Of the plans were received. Then came the point Of order and the defeat of the item for $5OOOOO for roads and trails in the House. The people of Gastineau channel notwithstanding that none of the $5OOOOO would probably come to. this section. dropped the Gastineau bridge proposition and joined the re. of the Territory in a fight for that more important item. In fact, Juneau led the fight and fairly flooded Senator Chamberlain with telegrams urging that the $JOO,OOO item be put back in the bridge In order not to cucumber the proposi. ton, not word was said in any of the tclegrams concerning the bridge,
