OWNERS URGED
 TO INSTAL LADDERS NOW

Owners of buildings, and espe- cially two-story buildings, in the business district, are urged to install ladders on their property at once, for the purpose of making it pos sible to reach the roof quickly and easily in case of fire. Some prop erty owners have already taken this precaution, but many buildings are not yet equipped with ladders and, in consequence, stand exposed to gravest risk and a menace to adjoin- ing buildings.
 Acting Townsite Manager w. H. Grigg, in discussing the matter of fire protection, said yesterday that failure on the part of property own CTS to install ladders and take other ordinary precautions against fire doubtless would result eventually in the issuance of an order requiring such action. The ladders, he said, should be attached permanently to the building, at a point near the stove pipe.
 In addition to the roof ladders, MT. Grigg suggested that other lad lers be provided for the safety of occupants of upper stories. With out such ladders, a fire occurring near a stairway might easily cut off the escape of lodgers and compel them to jump from the windows. As further precaution against loss of life, he suggested that the owners of two-story buildings install ropes in the rooms, for use in case ladders are not available in time of need. These ropes can be securely fast ened just inside the windows and coiled so that the loose end can be thrown to the ground, thus afford ing a safe and rapid means of es- cape. -~.
 The use of these ropes is general in other Alaskan towns and is re- quired by ordinance in number of cities, including Fairbanks, where exerience has demonstrated their value as an independent fire escape.

COLD WAVE HITS
 EASTERN STATES

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec .29.-- The eastern section of the United States, from the Mississippi to the Atlantic seaboard, is enveloped to- day by a cold wave of unusual in tensity. The great blanket of frost is moving sluggishly toward the east and south, adding steadily to the area of the frost belt. No re- lief is offered by forecasts issued by the weather bureau.
 The situation is rendered the more serious on account of the fuel shortage in many sections of the East. Distress is already reported and much real suffering will follow in case of a protracted cold snap.

GOOD TRAIL IS MARKED
 ON BROAD PASS ROUTE

Division Engineer F. H. Bailey has issued d statement in which he says that the trail between the points named can be easily followed by mushers, with out danger of losing their way. The markings extend for distance of :'1 mics, from Indian river, at Mile 265, northward through Broad Pass to the confluence of Jack and Ne mana rivers, Mile 322. South of Indian river the right of way is cleared and beyond Deadhorse, Mile 249, the grade is practically com pleted to Montana creek, Miie 211.

VOLUNTEERS POPI AR
 AT NEW ARMY CAMP

Letters received in Nenana dur ing the week from Arthur V. Hea- cock contain the information that the former Tolovana river navi- gator is much taken up with his nev life in the army camp at Fort Mcdowell, where he is attached to the quartermaster corps. Heacock is an Alaskan regist~ant, but voiun- teered his services to the govern ment instead of waiting to be draft ed. And now he writes that he is very glad he took the step, for the volunteers are the white-haired boys of the army, being much more high ly regarded by their comrades than those who were forced into the ser vice by the drafting process.
 The feeling is such, in the army camps, that the war department has found it advisable to make an equal division of drafted men and volun- tstrs at each of the camps.
 Heacock writes that he likes the life immensely, and says that he :S not bit sorry that he joine tn, army, although at times he longs for dear old Alaska and the many friends he left behind. He says that he does not know where he is to be sent or when he will leave Fort Mcdowell, but he is ready for any orders that may be issued and eager to get into real action.
 Art expressed wish to be remem- bered to his many friends in Nenana.

YANKEE DES7ROYERS
 CAPTURE DIVER CREW

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec .29.- The navy department has issued a statement in which it is announced that the American destroyers Fan ming and Nicholson, engaged in con- voying American merchant ships through the war zone, attacked and sank a German submarine off the British coast on November "A. The members of the diver, consisting of four officers and 35 men, were taken prisoners.
 The destroyers opened fire on the submarines when the periscope was sighted and a well-directed depth bomb wrecked the machinery of the diver and compelled it to rise to the surface. The members of the crew immediately came on deck, wearing life preservers, and swam to the de- stroyers. One of the Germans had difficulty in reaching the side of the boat and two Yankee sailors leaped into the water and rescued him. His exhaustion was such, how ever, that he died several hours later.
 The reports state that the cap tured Germans appeared we'll sat isfied with their fate. They began singing as soon as they reached the ol the Americans Justify when they were put ashore They are the first German submarine operatives to fall into the hands of the Americans.

GERMAN SAILOR SAYS
 KAISER IS UNAFRAID

PETROGRAD, Dec. 29.-Baron Admiral Keyserlingk, advance guard of the Teuton peace delegation, reached this city this afternoon and announces that the Central powers are ready to proceed with their ne- gotiations with the Russians, inde- pendently of the other Allied na- tions.
 He says that Germany is not afraid of America, either on land or on the high seas. Had the Ger mans feared the American fleet, he points out, the Imperial government never would have launched her sub marine campaign.
 Reports received in this city from Brest Litovsk state that the Russian representatives have accepted the peace terms outlined by the Austro- Hungarian minister, and will adopt them as a basis for the general peace discussion set for the coming month.
 Representatives of the Bolsheviki government have received assurances from the Central powers that when peace is established between Russia and Germany, the way will have been paved or an easy settlement with the other Allied nations. This is being used as an argument or a speedy settlement of the pending ne gotiations and appears to have made a most favorable impression on Bol- sheviki.

AMERICAN SAYS ALLIES
 MUST ASSIST RUSSIANS

TOKYO, Dec. 29.-Raymond Stew ems, head of the American railroad commission, who arrived at Naga- saki this week from Vladivostock, is authority for the statement that con ditions in Russia are deplorable as the result of the collapse of the Ker- ensky government He says that the Allies should not relax their sym pathy and help at this time because of the recent change in govern ment. Instead, they should quad ruple their efforts to relieve the distress of the 13O,0OO,OOO persons composing the. peasant class. He says that it would be grave mis- take to permit the Central powers to finance and advise the sufferers at this time. Should such a thing occur, he believes the situation in Russia would be lost, as far as the Allies are concerned. Stevens an- nounces that he is going back to Russia within very short time and hopes to be of assistance to the United States and the Allies in re- storing order in the disrupted re- public.
