MUCH MATERIAL FOR COMMISSION
 IS NOW ON WAY
A Large Quantity of Construction Material and Supplies Is on
 Way to Nenana.

According to advices received in
 Nenana by the officials of the Alaskan Engineering commission, a very large quantity of railroad construction material and supplies
 have already left Seattle for Ne
 mana via St. Michael. It is also
 known that to expedite delivery, quite large portion of the ex- pected shipments have been diverted and will arrive in Nenana via Skay- way and the upper Yukon river. The ocean service would appear
 to have been disorganized to some
 extent and the shipments retarded in consequence. In view of the fact that the close of navigation on the river is close at hand, it is ex- pected that there will be quite
 rush of boats with bargeloads of this government freight arriving in Nenana soon, and a very busy time at the waterfront may be looked forward to from now on and until the freezeup.
 The following shipments have left Seattle for Nenana: On the steam CT Valdez which sailed for St. Michael on August 16th, there were
 1749 tons of freight, made up of 5000 rail braces, 5336 angle braces,
 54 kegs of bolts, 2347 rails, 376 kegs of spikes, ? class POI loco motives (50 tons each), 10 Rodger ballast cars, 60 trucks for flat cars, 25 pcs couplers, ? boxes locomotive
 parts and quantity of dynamite, caps, gasoline and oils. On the steamer Cordova which sailed for
 St. Michael on August 23rd there were 595 tons of freight, this ship men was composed of 1928 7O-pound
 rails, weighing 586 tons, and some construction supplies.
 On the steamer Victoria, which i sailed for the North August 24th,
 S25 cases of eggs were shipped. On the steamer Latouche, which
 sailed for Skagway August 24th,
 there were 37,O0O feet of lumber. thirteen Lidgerwood car bodies,
 twenty narrow gauge dump cars and
 considerable other supplies and ma terial.
 The steamr Skagway, which sailed
 for Skagway on August 26th, had only two tons. The steamer Alaska.
 which sailed for Skagway on the
 same date, had 147 tons, which in- cludes 3376 angle braces, 23O kegs of spikes, 34 kegs of bolts and a quantity of other material.
 The steamer Jefferson sailed for the North on the evening of the 21st, but it is not known whether she will land her Nenana freight at St. Michael or Skagway. She had only 21 tons of freight on board for Nenana.
 Four large river boats of the A. Y. N. Co have been awaiting this freight at St. Michael for some time and it is expected that it will
 be rushed to Nenana with all pos sible speed so that the barges may be unloaded in time to be put away
 in winter quarters. Advice of sail
 ings from St. Michael for Nenana
 are expected momentarily.
 Longshoremen will probably have
 continuous spell of work in the
 near future and until the many
 barges due here have been un- i loaded.

WHERE BELGIUM STANDS
BY HON. e. DE CARTIER,
Minister of Belgium.

His excellency, r. de Cartier, Bel
gian minister to the United States,
has sent the Vigilantes the following
expression of the attitude of his coun-
try:
The principles which you have al
ways stood for, and for which you are
again fighting. are the principles which
have always animated my little country
and for which we, too, are fighting,
shoulder to shoulder, with your own
brave boys. We are fighting for free
dom and independence. Your soldiers
will not come back until 1t is all over,
over there; neither will ours lay
down their arms until the world is
made safe for honest people.
Germany offered us q shameful bar
gain. She offered to spare our coun-
try and to indemnify us, if we would
let her pass through to accomplish her
crime against our neighbor and her
neighbor, France. She wished to make
us an accomplish in her crime, and she
gave us twelve hours in which to make
up our minds. That was eleven hours
and fifty-nine minutes too much. We
spurned her base offer. We have suf-
fered, but we have no regrets.
Having tried in vain to bride us by
offers OF immunity, the Germans re-
sorted to violence and intimidation.
You all know the story, although many
of the details cannot be told until our
witnesses are freed from the menac-
ing claw of the German eagle. / say
to you that whoever undertakes to
IA 80
mitted by the Huns of the twentieth
century will have task that will turn
his soul sick.
One of the greatest of the crimes of
Germany was to attempt to enslave
our wOrkmen and to force them to
work for our enemy and against t4Sir
own brothers. Tens of thousands Of
honest workmen were torn from their
wives and families. loaded on trucks
like cattle and deported to Germany.
There they were tempted by offers Of
high wages to work for our enemy and
to sign so-called voluntary con-
tract" to engage In such workout
they would not sign. They were sub
jected to starvation--but they would
not sign. They were tortured = but
they would not sign.
The Germans tried to divide our
house against itself-but they 'imag-
ined vain thing" In the early part
Of the war, after having ravaged and
massacred In Flanders as well as In
the Walloon district, after finding that
our people could not be inundated,
the Germans sought to separate Elan
ders from the rest of Belgium by fiat
tering the Flemings and pretending to
be their special protectors. But the
only result of the effort to divide
Flanders from the rest of our country
has been to arouse the most intense
unity throughout the land. All our
people Immediately rallied in defense
of the unity of our country, whose
motto is like your own. You have the
motto "E Pluribus Unum"-"One Com
posed of Many" and ours is "Union
Fait la Force''-"In Union There Is
Strength"

 The Red Cross has been forehanded in arranging for the participation of that organization in the Siberian en- terprise and already has arranged for the shipment to the far east of sup plies likely to be needed.
 Information has reached Washing ton that, responding to the state de- partment's appeal for aid, the British already have landed a battalion Of troops at VladivOstOk, while a similar force of French troops from TOnqdin.. is due at the same port at any time.
 Admiral Knight, commanding the American naval forces on the Asiatic station, already is at VladivostOk. It is said he would of course cooperate fully with the military authorities. It is not permissible to indicate just where the American troops are coming from, but the principal force must be drawn from a distant point.
 There will be no armed resistance to the landing of the international sol diers at Vladivostok as the port practi- cally is dominated by the Japanese and British naval and military forces al ready there. Assurance that no trouble is to be expected on this account has been received by the Russian embassy here.
 The embassy also gave out a state ment that everywhere the people of different classes and political groups has manifested vivid interest and sympathy with the efforts of the United Siberian government in CO., operation with the Czecho Slovaks, to organize an army to re-establish to- gether with the allies. a battle front against Germany.
 The population of Archangel receiv- ed the troops with cheering. The men debarked and advanced toward Arch angel, where already an anti-Bolshe- wiki revolution had taken place. The leaders in this movement invited the protection of the allied troops.
 The final resistance of the Bolsne- wiki occurred Saturday. They were finally defeated at the station atYsa- kagorka, on the left bank of the Divna.
 In their flight from Archangle the Bolsheviki forces carried away forty million rubles in money and much ether treasure, but left many supplies behind them.

with sweeping the enemy back rom the immediate vicinity of Soissons.
 The drive from SolssOns is headed in such a direction that it may be the beginning of far more ambitious pro- feet by General Foch. It might we'll foreshadow, officers said, extension of the battle front northward in an effort to carry the allied lines up to the Disc front, which would be one way of attempting to duplicate in the Picardy theater what has happened in the Aisne-Marne salient. With his lines secure along the Aisne, it was argued General Foch might shift tbe battle front to the left in an effort to outflank the enemy standing belo-e Amiens.
 At least thirty-fiye German divisions of the crown princes army have been roughly handled according to esti- mates. Their losses in men and guns probably have crippled these troops 10 such an extent that it will take weeks to refit them for offensive operations and even for defensive work. The al- lies are full of the spirit of victory Behind them, also, is the steady flew of new American units.

WEEDS KNIFE ON
 MR. KOSNIS' NECK

The election of Bert Thomas, a miner employed in the Gardner shaft. from the Lyric theater last night, led to a cutting affray in which George Kosnis, an employe of the playhouse was badly but not fatally hurt by hay ing his throat cut Thomas is in the city jail pending investigation of the case.
 Stories as to the origin of the trouble differ somewhat. Kosnis says Thom- as. who had been drinking, went to sleep in the Lyric and still was sleep ing when the show came to an end. He says that he went to wake up the man and told him kindly that the shaw was at an end and invited him to leave. Thomas, he said, become un- ruly and cursed and threatened him.
 Thomas, on the other hand, says Kosnis abused him and insulted him; that he offered to go out peaceably, but Kosnis attempted to eject him. with the result that a fight ensued.
 KOsnis says, Thomas, alter making a harangue went to the front of the Orpheum and dared him out to fight.
 In the fight which followed KOsnis was cut in the neck The blade of the knife or whatever was used barely missed his juggler vein. Thomas de nies that he used a knife, saying he did not have one. A friend of Kosnis. who witnessed the fight, said he saw Thomas wield a knife and afterward threw it away. He exhibited a small, short-bladed knife which he said was the one. Kosnis was taken to the Cop per Queen dispensary where fourteen stitches were taken in dressing his injury.
 Thomas said the reason he was drinking was to forget his grief over the death of his wife, Mrs. Mary Thomas, who died last Wednesday and was buried Saturday.
