GERMAN POLICY CAUSES BRITISH
 MUCH ANXIETY
Associated ess)

LONDON, Mar 7.-The shortage of supplies created b. Germany's s present submarine policy is becom- ing more acute daily. Tn addition to shutting off the tonnage carried by ships of American and other foreign registry, numerous British vessels are destroyed daily.
 An official announcement issued to- day by the admiralty places the number of British ship sunk during the week ending March 4 at twenty three. The statement continues that out of these fourteen exceeded 1,6OO tons each, and that n ne were be tween 1,400 and 1900 tons. In ad dition to these three British fish ing vessels were also sunk, and twelve English merchant vessels were unsuccessfully att Cked.
 It is expected here duly that Am erican ships will resume schedule, as it is thought that the American government will arm the merchant vessels of American rel istry to safe guard them With these schedules resumed it is only a question of a short time before the shortage is relieved

PEOPLES, INC.,
 SUFFERS LOSS
 BY A BIG FIRE

That the big Peoples warehouse at the point on the TolOvana river known as Terminal was completely destroyed by fire Tuesday night, was the information received at the store of E. R. Peoples, Inc, yesterday in a wireless message from Brooks. The communication, which was from F. NJ. Taylor, the warehouseman, mere ly states that the warehouse and contents are a total loss, and that the cause of the cOnflagratiOn Is un- known MT Peoples stated over the phone last night that the loss would be between $20,000 and $22 900, but also stated that it is partially GOV cred by insurance.
 The warehouse was constructed at the head of navigation on the TOlO- vana river last spring and summer with the idea of delivering supplies to Brooks from it. The building was therefore pretty well filled with sup plies of all kinds, although large quantities had been sold since the goods were first housed there.
 
 Mr Peoples stated last night that he does not understand how a fire could have started there. The build ing, which was a large log structure, was we'll protected It was heated by several big stoves, but these were all in good shape, and good safeties had been provided. There were no adjoining buildings, the nearest being between seventy-five and 100 feet away. There are only four or five people at Terminal at this time of the year. and consequently there was little or no hope of saving the build ing after the fire once secured a start.
 MT. Peoples stated last night that in all probability the warehouse will be rebuilt this spring. In the mean time he is preparing to ship goods to Brooks from the store and ware houses here, in order to supply the demand and to take the place of the goods consumed by the fire.

Nenana News; Townsite Manager Ryus and his office force are en- gagged at present in working out the details of the general property as sessment which is aboul to be levied on all lots within the townste of Nenana
 Within a few days property own CTS will be apprised of the amounts which they will be required to pay, and they will be given until the end of April to make the payments.
 The assessment eventually will re covor about $6,000 of the amount which has been eXpe nded in i'm provements. but at the present time only about half that amount will be collected on the $50 lots which were sold at the September sale. The balance will be charge against the unsold lots and will be collected when they are disposed of at a later sale.

APPOINTMENT OF POSTMASTERS TO
 BE. COMPETITIVE
Associated TtrsS)

WASHINGTON, D. C., Mar, T. After April first all postmasters of the first, second and thrd class will be required to take d compet5tiv, examination be1ore they can receive an appointment. This vas announced tonight by Postmaster General Bur lcson.
 This step has been under the con sideration of the post office depart mcnt for some time. and it Wa thought that it would be put int effect during the latter part of Presi- dent Wilson's former administration It will have the effect of putting all offices under civil service rules, anC practically assures competent men a lifetime job.
 The President will submit the names of the present pOstmasters oI these classes, and they will be al lowed to serve out their four-yeal terms, from the time of their ap pointment. Upon the expiration c. this time, they will be compelled to stand an examination before they can be reappointed.
 There is much objection among the Democratic members of congress to this plan, and an effort is being made to have the order rescinGed before it is too late. However, it is not thought likely that their efforts will be successful. New members claim it is a scheme to deprive them of patronage that would be theirs under the old system, and which they consider is rightfuIly theirs.

IS
 WORKING HARD
 FOR TERRITORY

Col WiIds P. Richardson. Dro-i- dent of the Alaska Road coagmts- sion, is working tndefauaably for fhe interests of Alaska and the pao- pie of rho territory. at Washinetoa. D. C. such. in effect. was the state ment made last evening by Captain Joseph NehorseE, engineer officer of the commission. who is now here in connection with the construction work on the commissions bridge across he Cinema river
 Captain N-ha0ey had the priyi lego, while at Washtn ston, of at tending one of the congres iona1 committees hea1ines on the army biu The hearing was in connec-
 on with the appropriation of SG0o- poo asked 5r the road conmts ion
 OF roads and trail+ in Alaska and
 he bridge across Gasrincau channel between Douslas and Juneau T.. was al this hearing that Col Rtoh- tcdeon testified regarding, conditions
 the territory of Alaska and. ac- nordng 10 Captain Nohafacy he told some of the southern congrossmcn who are on the committee q flow
 hines that made them sit lip and take notice.
 Col Richardson was asked, for in stance. about the snowfall in Naska. He said that in the interior last winter tho snow fall was compare lively lgat, only about six reet hay ng fallen. What do you call a heavy snowfall up in that country .sked congressman from Nas-.- 5tDpi We very often have & fall pf from forty to seventy feet on
 he coast" replied Col. Richardson.
 II was throuah Col. Eichardsou'a efforts that the road and trail item If S509 GOO was allowed to rama n
 n the bill by the committee. He also succeeded m getting the com mitteo tO allow the $l0O.000 bridge item for the bridge across Gastlucau channel, to remain in the bill The latter item, however, Was stricken rom the bill prior 10 the time that the road and trail item was stricken.
 Speaking about the bridge last night, Captain Nehaffoy said tha, 1t was not so unfortunate that the item was not allowed at this time. He referred to the high price of all steel on the Outside at the present time. It is now fully 200 per cent higher than in normal times, accord ing to his statement, and the fac tories of the east are working night and day in order that they may sup ply the demand
 It was thought that the steel for the bridge being constructed here was costly but at the present time, but little more than a year after it was purchased, steel is fully 100 per cent higher, according 10 Capt Mehaifey. When he was in Pitts burg the road commission man stop ped off to see about getting some needed parts for the bridge here. and 1t was only with difficulty that the bridge building concern to whom the contract had been let was able to get the needed parts, and then only tt a greatly increased price over the cost Of the original parts.

HOME RULE FOR
 IRELAND WANTED
lAssOCIatcd PfpesI

LONDON. Mar. 7-Io- rhr first time since assuming the premiership Of England. Lloyd George tonight faces an embarrassing situation from within the empire which is likely la cause him serious trouble in the set ting t is caused Ly ayia.ul 0a the part of the Irish HaaoHa.-t- 5a# immediate homo rule tor Ireland
 Following the Irish rebellion Of several months ago. the British gov ernment has held out the hope Co the nauonaiists. headed ty juju hea mond. that in the near future som, system of home rule agreeable to al. parties would be worked ugr ano given to Ireland Tn he absence u. any fultilment oi this p.sr se. yes terday resolution MS introduced Into the hous" o. CORRIDORS by the Irish nationalists asking for wma diate home rule Th.s action came as a complete surprIsn end ugl-lr the opposition cn"-el, unaware.
 It precipitated the h5ttr~..' res sion in months. Ulsterites denounced members of the home TGie party a- traitors and claimed that Redmond and his followers were taking au undue advantage of the British gov ernment in presenting such 4 rcso. luton at this time They declared that it was the duty of every Eng fish subject to lay aside any project that would cause the government any embarrassment They also presented an ultimatum to the house that they would not accept any form of home rule. and would back this stand by force If necessary.
 So strong did the home rule party press their resolution that Premier George was forced to state that any part of Ireland wishing home rule could have il. and that the British government was willing to gare them what they wished. but that it would not compel Ulster to accept such rule if the people did not wish it
 In the face of this announcement and the determined stand of the Ulsterites, the plans Of the uationaI- ists were given setback. and all hopes for an immediate settlement were crushed. Following the close of the debate, Redmond and his fol lowers withdrew from the house and at once went into conference Just what action they now plan on taking is not known.
 That the situation is serious is ad- mitted by high officials, and it is causing much une2sines3 on all sides. That the nationalists will consent 1a divided Ireland. part of it under direct rule of the British government. and part under home rule, i5 not thought to be possible. It is certain also that Ulster will not under any circumstances submit to any form of home rule
 It is stated that LIayd George is trying to affect a compromise with the nationalists whereby they will agree to postpone their demands un- til the close Of the var, but there seems to be very little likelihood that it will be successful
