LONDON, Feb. 16 Tbe British ttft4fee t eeftt has-sent- for help. He cant get enough collins. and the cemeteries can't dig graves fast enough to bury the dead.
 The trouble is that all the available men have been called up for war ser vice. The undertakers who were wont to make their own collins have lost so many men that they had to fall back upon the big manufacturer. The demand upon the big factories became so great that their supplies are ex. hausted.

MARSHAL ISSUES NEW LIQUOR
 ORDER

A continuous string of complaints to the marshais office regarding the shipment of liquors by the saloonmen of Seward to Anchorage and other railroad, has eliminated in the issu ance by Marshal Brenneman of strin- gent orders that the traffic must stop under penalty of a forfeiture of li censes. Marshal Brennaman tele- graphed to Deputy Marshal Evans of Seward, instructing him to notify the saloon keepers at Seward that they must assist the office in suppressing this traffic and refrain from selling liquors for transportation to Anchor age and other points where the sale of liquor is prohibited or he will pro- ceed to take action against all sa- looms with view to revoking the li- censes, and will further oppose the issuance of licenses in Seward at the expiration of the present licenses.
 In this connection Marshal Brenne- man states that he expects the CO., operation of the saloon men not only at Seward, but at Valdez, Cordova and Mccarthy in maintaining the observ- anve of the laws respecting the sale of intoxicating liquors. He points out that in this division the saloon men have been permitted to sell liquor by the bottle and case without molesta- tion, and would not be disturbed in this matter provided care is taken that the liquor so sold does not go to bootleggers and others who might en- gage in the illegal sale of the same, but he also points out the licenses issued to saloons calls for the sale of liquor 'to be drunk on the premises" and if violations continue strict construction of the license will be enforced and the sale, even by the bottle to be taken from the premises where sold, will be rigidly enforced throughout the entire division
