 The loss of the Al-Ki will be keen ly felt in transportation circles in Southeastern Alaska as she regular ly served many small ports which larger and faster steamers could not call At the time of her loss she was making her regular twice month call at Sitka with freight and passengers.
 Passengers on the steamer today are loud in their praise of Captain McGregor and crew of the Al-Ki for their coolness and for the efforts made to care for the passengers and make them comfortable. They are also very grateful to the men of the San Juan and the Burnside for their efforts in their behalf.

IN 24 CITIES DIETARY FOR FAMILY OF FIVE
 COSTS $9.43 PER WEEK

NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-A compar- son of food costs in the principal ,ities of the United States made pub ic by the health department here, ihows that the cheapest wholesome dietary for a family of five, con ''isting of a man, wife and three children, costs $9.S9 week in Chi ,ago, which is more than any other 3ity in the country. The same standard dietary costs $9.6z1a aYeek n New York city; $9.25 in New Orleans; $9.14 in Boston and $9.12 n San Francisco. The average for 24 cities and towns in the United States was $9.43.
 "The menus provided at these fig ures are not especially tempting," the report says. "A really pafatable dietary will cost approximately 25 per cent. more than the price just quoted. If the people are really to economize they must cut down their present excessive consumption of meat"

GREAT CHANGES IN COMMERCE
 CONFRONT US When the War Ends Sec retary Redfield Says Will Be Many Ad-
 justmentS.
RESTORE RUINED TRADE
Will Require Best Talent That Can Be Brought to Bear on the
 Subject.

The following is summary or an adress delivered by MT. William C.. Redfield, Secretary of Commerce, at the banquet of the Southern Com mercial Congress, Hotel Astor, New York, October 16, 1917:
 "It is not modest, indeed it is dangerous, to assume the role of prophet concerning future economic changes No man is wise enough to foresee today that which will come with the end of the war We do not know, indeed, what eco homie changes will take place be- fore the war shall end. There may be financial or political develop ments in one or another country in the months before or following the wars close which no one can fore tell. One may not say positively what or where the unexhausted res ervoirs of credit shall be or how much of what is thought to be war legislation in one or another coun- try is to be permanent.
 Tt is easy from one set of facts to deduce that there will be a gen eral collapse of commerce with the end of the war It is quite as easy from another set of facts to infer that there will be great industrial and financial activity when the war closes. Neither viewpoint may be based upon all the facts, and there may be-probably are-economic forces at work which will produce results either quite unexpected or which will occur for reasons quite other than those relied upon to bring them about.
 Will Find Strange World.
 When peace shall come and her merchants take up the task of re- storing Germany's ruined commerce they will find that it is a strange world which they seek to re-enter There will be difficulties in the path of future peaceful penetration of which they seem not to dream. Commercial frightfulness, like its military namesake. will have passed away. It will hardly be said again to any Secretary of Commerce of the United States that the German Dyestuff verein will not permit the establishment of an American

Our men with vis- ion are reaching out into all the lands The American bank, the American investor, is making his way throughout the world. The physical and financial tools of com merce which we long have lacked are prepared to our hand. The day of isolation is gone. We are in the family whether we will or no, and in my earnest belief we shall draw richly from the family inter- course"

CARRYING A FIRST AID KIT

Actual dogs of war now are play Ing most prominent roles in the great European war drama. and their accomplishments have been so splendid and the demand for their services is becoming so general that they are being cared for and trained as carefully as are the men.
 The war dogs have been and are being used ill various ways, such as Sentinels, despatch carriers, to guard munitions and prisoners, with the sanitary corps to seek out the wounded, for rat hunting in the trenches and Notifications and to assist in the conveys by pulling small vehicles, sleighs, &c. The greater number of the dogs used in these services are of ill-defined breed or plain, everyday mongrels. Most of them are picked up in the streets of the cities and towns, but are most intelligent and quick to learn, and give splendid service.
 Ambulance dogs are required to discover the wounded and go and find the ambulances. The dogs carry 10 the latter the caps of the wounded man or some object indicating the unit to which he belonged Other dogs, differently trained, call ambu- lances to the wounded by means of prearranged cries. All these dogs carry a little wallet containing a flask and various rough dressings for first aid. They are accustomed 10 cover all sorts of country, to clear all obstacles and to have no fear of cannon or shell fire. They have proved themselves valuable since the declaration of war, and for nearly three years they have carried out their laborious and perilous work with the ambulances to which they are attached in the most heavily bOmbarded districts.

BERLIN'S NEW PARTY.

AMSTERDAM, Nov. 2. - Oppo- nents Of the von Tirpitz junkerite "fatherland party have combined to form a conservative German union" according to Berlin dis patches. The new party, it was stat ed, was instituted specifically to "neutralize the fatherland faction" |" It is headed by Dr. Grabasky and pr. Thimm. both of whom have re- gently made vigorous attack on the junkers for their opposition to dem ocratiZation.
 The preliminary statement of the new party announces it is opposed to exaggerated war aims, and ap- proves renewed efforts toward secur- ing peace. The pan-German press is violently attacking the party.

 "It is pitiful to read extracts from the German press which seem to show that they expect to take up the task of rebuilding their com merce where they laid it down. They reckon the worlds demand for potash as a purely German asset. It was so, but it is so no longer. They were the worlds source for dye stuffs. That opportunity has gone. It was they to whom the world looked for optical glass. We do not look there now. They were the source of supply of chemical porce- lain. We makt it today as well as they. They had applied science to industry more than any other peo- pie and had built up industrial pow er by means others had neglected We have learned that lesson also, and in the countries represented here tonight science speaks to and through industry with an authority and success which we did not know, which we have been glad to learn, and which we shall not set aside.
 'I need not tell you of the com mercial value of what we call good will or point out the advantage of doing business as a going concern The great markets of the world have been and are to be found among the nations who have parted com pany with Germany in the present struggle. Her past markets have been found among them. The peo- ples of these lands are not likely by one common impulse to turn quickly to Germany for 8 renewal of the commercial intercourse which was broken by her act.
 Change in American Viewpoint.
 "As it will be a strange world

Each knows the other better than he did. Old lines of separation have gone.
 Applied to commerce this means that we understand other peoples and their needs better and know better what we may do to supply them. We have come into a family relationship. very near, very help ful to all in the family. It must alter the world of commerce as it is altering the worlds geography. We
