ALL INDICATIONS ARE THAT
 LOAN HAS BEEN SUBSCRIBED:
 TWENTY MILLION SUBSCRIBERS

WASHINGTON, Oct 19.-Indcations point to an over subscription in the fourth Liberty loan drive is quite probable that there will be total of twenty million subscribers which breaks all records of all nations for the distribution of bonds.
 The banks will be busy for least five days in compi ing their figures and completing their reports but good estimate will be made at the close of the day. 7.
 The United States navy has subscribed thirty three millions which than subscribed in all of the other loans put together.
 TWELFTH PROBABLY OVER THE TOP.
 SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1o.-It is believed that the final returns will show the twelfth district be the top in the loan Fridays tabulaon showed that eighty per cent had already been banked.
 The various divisions of the district are over the top in the following order Alaska Hawaii Oregon Utah, Ar- zona, Nevada, Idaho and probably Washington.

SEATTLE, Oct. 19.-Van Smith, of San Francisco, sent the following report of the fourth Liberty loan drive, the figures are for the amount banked up to last evening:
 The total amount banked is two hundred and ninety-two million. seventy-two thousand and four hun. dred.
 Oregon and Utah are running neck and neck in the state race with both claiming that they have ninety-eight per cent of their quota banked.

HALF MILLION
 IS SUBSCRIBED
 IN FAIRBANKS
Quota, $1S2,1 100.
 Subscriptions. S446,OO0. OverSubscribed, $263.9OO.

VSoopoVO.
 The above tells the story of the drive in Fairbanks and district in the fourth Liberty loan better than a world of words. It shows con- clusively the spirit of democracy in the interior of Alaska-the treasure vault of America.
 At the close of business yesterday and the concluding day of the drive the banks reported the total of $446,. 900 as being subscribed for Liberty bonds with several of the outlying districts to be heard from. What the real total of the drive will amount to will not be known for several days, or until the returns are all in.
 As compared with the third Liberty loan it was very close. exceeding the former by S9,200 according to tue figures available at the present time. From all sections of the Fairbanks district the subscriptions kept pour ing in during the last days of the drive until nearly half million dol. lars had been pledged for the pur- chase of bonds.
 Starting with the first loan drive the story of Fairbanks contributions to the war fund is remarkable. The first loan only required something like S66,O0O from this section. More was pledged but as the amount to be raised ill the United States was oversubscribed it was reduced pro- portionately until that amount was accepted from Fairbanks. The second loan was also conducted along the same lines. When the third bond sale was on Fairbanks Was allotted SS5,OUO as her quota. The response. S430,oUO, opened the eyes of those who thought they knew the finances of the camp. The drive just passed, with an allotment of $lS2,l0O as Fairbanks share in the war fund, caused many to have some apprehen- sion as to the ability of the district to respond, owing to 50 much money being taken out of the camp by oth- CT war measures. When the doubling ohes read the response today lucy will have their answer as to the stability of the camp and the in. terior.
 Over a million dollars has been subscribed to the Liberty loans in the Failbanks district alone. Taking the other war measures the amount is increased by several thousands. amounting to nearly $1,100,00O.
 Friday there was observed the 51st anniversary of the acquisition of Al aska by the United States from Rus sia. From a barren wilderness to the financial leadership of America in that period is record that every one who calls Alaska their home may well be proud of.

And the Earth is Void and
WHhoutFonn Where The Mad
Hun Arm1es Burn and Retreat

With the American Forces on
the NeSle, Thursday. Sept. 5.-To
keep up with the Germans, retreat
ing beyond the River Aisne, the
Americans have organized automo-
bile machine gun detachments with
three men to each car. More than
thirty cars were operating north
OF the Nesle river early today. AS
not much German infantry had been
sighted the automobile machine
gunners were uncertain just where
their advance might lead them. The
outfit had supplies of food and
equipment to enable them to keep
after the Germans for days.
AS the Americans pressed for
ward, it was different sight than
that which had greeted them in their
advance from the Marne to the
Nesle.
From the Vesle, northward over
the plateau. the Germans had
cleaned up virtually everything, TAX
ing with them all of valle or OF use
and were burning that which they
could not move northward or which
might OF use to the French and
Americans. Between the Marine
and the Nesle, the Germans had
left great stores OF supplies and am

munition because OF their hasty
withdrawal.
The roads on the plateau @! the
Nesle were in fairly good condition,
although in some places, over ra-
vines, the Germans had endeavored
to destroy small bridges. Engineers
quickly repaired the roads, and
Americans on foot and on horse
back, and mule teams, automobile
trucks and motorcycles went ahead
along grain fields over-run with
weeds and passed villages with
houses shot to pieces, but nowhere
encountering anything OF military
value.
The plateau for every few miles
was dotted with the frames OF Ger
man airdromes, from some of which
the Americans say the German raid
erS who bombed Paris evidently
operated.
Before the advancing Americans
in the desolate valley OF the Nesle,
between Bazoches and Fismette,
the Germans burned the freight cars
along the railroad and the twisted
skeletons OF cars are standing on
the tracks. The trees along the road
way between Bazoches and Fismette
had been cut down by German saws
and German shells.

German Losses Since
March 21 May Total
A S High AS 100000

With the French Army in the
Field, Sept. S. (Thursday)-(By The
Associated Press) - Calculations
based on the most accurate inforna-
ton available show that the Ger
mans have lost 100000 men since
March 81. Of this total about half
million were killed, permanently
disabled or taken prisoner, leaving
about 100000 recuperable in four
or five months. Thousands of let
tiers taken from prisoners during re-
cent engagements show that the
German army is suffering even more
from depression and discourage
nent than from depleted numbers.
