A luncheon rendered by Nome busi- ness men to the officers of the visiting Russian steamer Oesterhan at the Board of Trade today was the occa- views of the new relationship be- tween the worlds major republics and Incidentally paved the way for continuation of the present very friendly relations between the Rus sian authorities of the Siberian coast and the business interests of this city.
 The function was held at the noon hour owing to the desire of the visi- tors 10 make an early departure for Vladivostok. Covers were laid for twenty. The guests included the principle officers and engineers of the visiting steamer and the Russian re- cruiting officers who have been en- gagged in rounding up army recruits on the North Siberian coast.
 Interesting addresses were made by Judge Tucker, Mayor Lomen, A Polet and a number of others.
 As a return compliment, the master of the Russian craft invited teh at tendants to visit his vessel, the ships launch being placed at their disposal for the journey.

\ launch belonging to the Russian steamer Ocsterhan caught fire in the toadstcd at an early hour today and but for the timely arrival of Capt Ross and the coast guard crew would probably have been consumed by flames which spread quickly over the vessel as result of leaking gasoline tanks. quick action on the part of the lifesavers and the three Russians aboard quenched the flames before a great deal of damage was done. The top hamper of the launch was burned to some extent but the hull was un- injured. The fire is said to have been caused by one of the Russian sailors dropping a lighted match on a piece of gasoline soaked waste which ig- nited and spread the flames to the deck of the launch which was also soaked with gasoline.

RAILROAD COMPANY
WINS DAMAGE SUIT

One case was disposed of in the
court of record yesterday, this being
the claim for $4,000 damages made
by E. McCurdy for alleged personal
injuries. The case was decided in
favor of the railroad company, the
defendant
The plaintiff alleged that he was
injured when he endeavored to alight
from a. moving train, when advised
not to step off until the train came
to a stop. It appeared that the plain
tiff boarded the train at one station
and did not have sufficient funds to
pay his way to the next station.
When told that the sum offered was
insufficient, he then offered to get
off and it was while the train was
slowing UP that he is alleged to have
stepped off and suffered injuries.

Lyon at naval wireless station re cvng instruction in wireless

I talked with d man in Norfolk
who had retired from the navy after
80 years honorable service. He was
drawing $106.92 a month retirement

continue to draw that much as long
as he lives. His pay equals six per

men at 48 are as well off?
No business on earth requires as
many different kinds of skilled men

1t is as idle, of course, to eX-

selves as indifferent to patrio-

Operators Are Showing No In
cIination to Ask for Contract
Renewals.
A SPECIAL SESSION POSSIBLE
State May Have to Go Into Open Mar.
ket to Buy Fuel, Officials
Believe

Topeka.-The coal shortage is Civ
ing Kansas officials more concern
just now than the food shortage. I'm
less a program for increased produc-
ton and more prompt distribution is
soon mapped out many people in Kan
sas are liable to without fuel next
winter The situation is very acute.
The miners blame it on the operators,
the operators blame it on the railroads
and the railroads, in turn. blame it
on both the miners and operators. So
far the responsibility has not been
fixed. The only thing certain about
it is that there is going to be short
age
Most all coal contracts expire in
July and August. The operators are
showing no signs so far of asking for
renewals In fact they are sitting tight
and intimating that there will possibly
be no contract coal They are telling
their customers to go on the open mar
ket for fuel. 1t seems that many of
the big operators got stung on their
contracts last year. They sold under
contract and did not make as much
money per ton as those who sold on
the open market.
While the operators would all inter
pose objections to the government TAX
ing control of the mines, that is one
of the possibilities unless some plan
is soon devised to insure the people
plenty of fuel next winter. The gov
eminent has a plan to handle the out
put of mines east of the Mississippi
river and it may extend it to the west
ern mines.
One of the largest customers of the
Kansas mines is the state, itself. 1t
has to buy vast quantities of coal for
its institutions. The prison mine sup
plies only a small per cent Of require
ments. Notice has been served on the
state that it might have to go into the
open market for it's coal. That means
a so per cent increase over the con-
tract price last year. If the operators
continue to decline to make contracts
the state coal fund will not be suffi-
cient to run one year, much less two.
If the coal companies refuse to carry
the state, special session of the leg
islature will be necessary. 1t is bare
ly possible that session viii be call
ed anyway to handle the seed wheat
question. If it is the coal fund can be
enlarged.

SPIES WORK IN WASHINGTON
Senator Chamberlain Says kaiser's
Agents Get Secrets From the
Government Departments.

Washington, July 5.-Senator Cham
berlain, chairman of the Senate mill
tary committee, said he had no doubt
that spies in government departments
in Washington are constantly sending
information to Berlin.
Following the revelation that Ger
man army and navy headquarters are
getting a steady flow of military Sc
crets from the United States, as evil
dencej by Berlin's war moves and pub
locations in German newspapers, opin-
ion in Washington resolved itself into
a concerted demand for exposure and
death of enemy agents.
The fact that submarines were able
to intercept the American fleet so far
out at sea indicates that their COM
manderS must have had very minute
information as to route. The mere
knowledge that the expedition had
sailed would not have made such in
Perception far at sea possible. Evil
IDENTIFY the German spy system is get
ting its information very close to it's
source.
Two possible avenues of communi-
cation are open-first, secret wireless;
second, embassies which may be
friendly to Germany and have access
to cables and use of code.
