The fact that the captain was in ac- tual communication with Mexi- can authorities was also revealed.
 That efforts were made by former Congressman Buchanan, of New York, to prevent the manufacture of munitions was also disclosed in the case today.

HOUSE PASSES
 APPROPRIATIONS

WASHINGTON, D. C., May D. The largest appropriation bill ever passed for military purposes by any nation went through the house Of representatives today by a vote of 362 to 1. the member voting against the measure being London, Social ist. The amount carried by the mea- sure is s2.S27,553.653. Out of this the army gets approximately $2.300.- O0O,00O and the navy $500,000,0OO, the remainder going to other de- partments for expenses incurred on account of war conditions.
 This bill, together with the army bill containing the conscription pro- vision. will probably become a law by Saturday night. as 1t is planned to send them to the President at the same time for signature.

CONSOLIDATION OF RAILROADS
 IS ADVOCATED

OTTAWA, Ont, May "A sur, prise was sprung in railroad official circles here today when it was an nounced that the royal commission which is investigating the condition this country is asking the consoli- dation of the three great transcon- tinental lines of railroad in Canada, the Grand Trunk, the Grand Trunk Pacific and the Canadian Northern. The statement issued says that the commission believes that such a con solidaton would have the effect of materially assisting the fast move ment of troops and supplies across the continent in either direction and would at the same time stop all competition in this time of war, when the minds of even the governing powers of railroads should be turn cd toward other matters than busi- ness
 The commission is asking that the three roads be consolidated under one head. at least for the present, or during the war. It shows the advantages which could be gained by the amalgamation of the inter ests, stating at the same time that the consolidated concern could be dissolved at the end of the war if such action were determined upon.
 The commission does not favor government ownership of the roads or the consolidation under more than usual government supervision. It simply favors one directorate for the railroads and one head for the trans portation facilities of the country.

UPPER YUKON SEASON OPENS
 IN FEW DAYS
Special to The Citizen)

DAWSON, Y. T., May 2-Prepara- tions are being made on the upper Yukon for the biggest traffic of any season in the history of the north. The Yukon is expected to break here any time before May 10. Many side streams were opening rapidly last week, but a severe cold spell the last three days has set the sea son back temporarily. The small streams, however, are still rising rapidly, and the Yukon itself is show ing signs of breakup. The Forty Mile and Hootalinqua rivers, which are on the main Yukon river route, are already open.
 Large quantities of freight com prisng the first shipments of per ishables and other rush freight for Fairbanks. Ruby, Iditarod, Dawson and other Yukon river points are now at lower Laberge, ready to be transported by the fleet that win tered there The next few days will see all this freight on it's way to the lower river points.
 In the shipyards of the White Pass & Yukon Route at Whitehorse there is great activity. more men being employed this year than ever before. Preparations for handling a large amount of tourist travel are being made by the White Pass. The great rush of tourists that was look ed for this summer will probably not take place on account of the entrance of America into the war, but many will undoubtedly make the trip. Already many reservations have been made, and business has begun to swell rapidly, The White Pass is building a new steamer at Carcross, of the Alaska and Yukon size and type, with which to take care of the Atlin tourist trade.

Cucumber Bleach.

Cucumber juice is mild bleach. The juice of the cucumber can be extracted by slicing the vegetable without peeling into a granite dish and pouring over it enough boiling water just to cover the cucumber letting it steep for a half hour Strain carefully and add. when cold. either small quantity of borax and alcohol or few drops of tine ture of benZoin.
 Do not mix with oil, if you want the bleaching property of the GU Cumber. as oil Counteracts this.

Artillery Duels
 Still Continue

LONDON, May Military ac- tivities on the western front ap- pear to be deadlocked except for the artillery duel, which con tinues everywhere without the least sign of abating, according to reports received at the Brit ish war office tonight It had been expected that before now infantry engagements would be transpiring again at various points in the German line of de fense thought pregnable by the allied leaders, but none have ma tured. It is believed, however, that a new infantry move on the part of both the British and the French Is now developing, and that the battle will be at it's height within the next few days. Nothing has been stated regard ing the objects of the move.

The following is taken from a number of creams. the recipes for which were given by the noted stage beauty, Miss Lillian Russell. Of this one, the actress says: "A cold cream which is delightful. but very hard to obtain, unless you live in a city where there are extensive laboratories, consequently it is much used by fastidious women, is eight parts of the mutton tallow used to extract the odor from flowers, one part Of the best German lanolin

Face Wrinkles.

Wrinkles just beginning to form and this good reason should send every woman off to her cream jar as soon as they begin to appear.
 For one reason or another they are ignored; powder and liquids leav- ing a deposit on the skin will con ceal them for time, but they are there, nevertheless, and some day they cannot be hidden, no matter how you cream and powder, and then, tearfully, a woman takes her wrinkles seriously and admits her years of wilful neglect.

There is a stigma attached to the onion, so that it is served surrep- titiously, and cooked, as it were. un-
 der cover Perhaps We spurn it, like
 many another worthy thing, because we do not understand it. To weep over it's preparation, and to know oneself an olfactory nuisance after
 having partaken of it, are undeni- able drawbacks, but, like most other draw acks, they may be overcome once we are really convinced of the advantage of doing so. That there are big points in favor of the
 onion no one can deny. Not only is it among the most wholesome of vegetables, containing peculiar prop
 critics for the upbuilding of the ner- vous system, but there are few oth- CTS so palatable. Every great chef. recognizing this, depends on its low ly support for flavoring his most elaborate connections.
 Having determined to use the oni- on, we may prepare it with dry eyes. if we plunge it into bowl of cool water, and peel it beneath the surface. Even if we must prepare a number, the time during which the hands must be kept in the wa ter is not long enough to injure them If, after the onions have been peeled, they are allowed to soak in sweet milk for one hour before cooking, the trace of any odor afterward will be so slight that it may easily be obliterated by nibbling a few coffee grounds.
 With the rawbacks thus disposed of, let us see how we can use the onion. The following recipes may prove suggestive:
 ONION PANCAKES.
 Have you ever tried onion pan cakes? They are labeled delicious" Peel six large onions, and, after they have soaked. put them through the food chopper. To every pint of chopped onions add quarter of a pint of bread crumbs, quarter of teaspoonful salt, the same of pep per, two eggs and enough flour to hold together. Mix, and fry a golden brown in deep fat. SUCCOTASH WITH ONIONS.
 Succotash with onions has unusu- al relish. Soak one cupful of lima beans over night. In the morning put on to boil with enough cold wa ter to cover. Add three slices of salt pork. and three medium sized onions. When all is well cooked. add the contents of one can of sweet
