NECESSARY TO MAKECHANNEL
 AT~EEBRUCCE

LONDON, May 24.-It has been found necessary by the German naval forces stationed at Zeebrugge to cut away the piers there in an effort to make a channel large enough for torpedo boats and other vessels that require more room than a submarine.
 This is the result of the British naval forces blocking the entrance to the Bruges canal by the sinking of two concrete laden vessels a short time ago. It was stated by the Ger. man admiralty that the British had failed in their efforts to block the harbor, but photographs taken by British aviators flying over the sub. marine base show how completely the canal was closed.
 Zeebrugge, in conjunction with Os. tend, is used by the Germans as a base for their submarine actions in the North sea and the English chan. nel. Both of these harbors were raided by. the British naval forces. A ship was sunk in the entrance of Ostend harbor, which, although not completely blocking the channel, greatly increased the difficulty of making an entrance or exit.

ON BIG INCREASE ARMY
 IS FAVORABLE

WASHINGTON. D. C., May 24.-- The military committee of the sen ate has ordered that favorable re- port be rendered on the resolution declaring for an increase in the army of three million men. The committee was unanimous in it's dec laration that it favored a large ex- pansion in the armed forces of the United States.
 With this report from the military committee, there is small likelihood of the resolution failing to be passed by the senate. It is understood that congress is in full accord with the administration that the United States army shall not be stinted in the number of men.
 Reports from the various depart ments state that no difficulty is being experienced at the present time in equipping the soldiers as fast as they are trained and ready to go to France.

AMERICA IS
 IN THE LEAD.
 AS IS USUAL

LONDON. April 10 (By MaiD- America leads the way as usual" writes the Daily Express Petro- grad correspondent of recent al lied efforts to help in the recon struction of Russia. He says:
 England appears to have shut up shop here and to be going out of business in Russia. but the United States is showing it's usual energy and enterprise by opening new branch establishment, which prom ises to play an important part in shaping Russian public opinion. For time there was dearth of American enterprise in Petrograd, but now we are again witnessing the old refreshing sight of numerous Americans hustling and bustling about the Nevsky Prospect just as if they were still in Broadway or Wall Street
 America will be a great factor in Russia after the war, and nothing has given more satisfaction and moral encouragement to thinking Russians than President Wilson's message to the Soviet. which seems to have been just awaiting such a rcognition from the great transat. iantic democracy.
 "A further step toward cementing the understanding between Russia and America has been taken in the distribution of pamphlet called Letters from an American Friend. which is being distributed free to Petrograd workers. It is published by the committee on public informa- ton at Washington. The candid American friend shows good un- derstanding of the character of the Russian workman, and while there is no flattery or -glorification, the American friend explains in homely language the democratic ideals of peace and liberty of the American people.
 "The American friend revolts at the idea of possible peace between the allies and Germany at the ex- pense of Russia. and adds that it would be poor consolation for the allies if, while they were successful in driving the Germans out of Bel. gium. Alsace and Lorraine, it was only to find that Emperor William had firmly implanted himself in Rus sia and the Balkans.
 The writer declares that no mat ter what happens, America intends to stand by Russia in her hour of trial. The Letters have undoubtedly opened the way to better under standing between western and east ern democracy"

BOARD ENTERS
 MOSQUITO WAR

To provide for the comfort of those attending the pastimes at the baseball park, the board yesterday decided to start campaign of ex- termination on the pestiferous mos quito in the near future.
 It is the intention to spray all the sloughs in the immediate vicinity of the park with oil, which 1t is thought will exterminate the pests. Oil has been used in the Panama Canal zone and other places with excellent results, the mosquitoes in the canal zone being of the malignant variety, and the prevention of much disease Is attributed to the measures taken there. While the Alaska mosquito is said to carry no infectious germs. he can do good job of biting. Hence the oil.

According to recent arrivals from Fairbanks creek, the mining game there is being delayed to a great extent by the lack of water. Al though the snowfall there was ex- ceedingly heavy, the cold weather has retarded the melting consider ably. and there is not even a sluice- head of water at the present time.
 The developing work on the creek has been delayed by the cold weather to such an extent that the season is about three weeks behind. that of former years. The claim owners there are optimistic. however, and will be doing more work when the good weather arrives.
