President Howard Kelly Sees Great Possibilities in Southeastern Alas

Howard Kelly, President of the Grand Trunk system. Capt. c. Mich alson, General Manager, and other high officials of that company, F. l.. Marston, the New York banker with other distinguished persons and their wives and friends, were interested visitors at Juneau yesterday evening while the Prince Rupert was in port. They were all round trip passengers, inspecting the steamship end Of the Grand Trunk system and enjoying the beauties of Alaskan and Canad ian Pacific waters.
 q am more strongly impressed than ever with the possibilities .of the Territory, and if the expansion of the Grand Trunk service is not what the people here want, am disappointed. Our inability to ere ate additional service is due to cir cumstances resulting from the wal conditions and the consequent re strictions placed on the money mar ket. However, the officials and exc cutives of the company realize the possibilities of Southeastern Alaska as tributary in business sense to the Prince Rupert gateway, and are anxious that it be taken care of

TROOP FLOW TO EUROPE ON
 A BIG SCALE Wave After Wave of Amer ican Troops Has Been Arriving on For
 eign Soil.
EXPRESSING BRITAI N
Great Problem Is to Get Troops Over the Eng fish Channel Fast
 Enough.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN ENGLAND, July 19.-America's s increased flow of troops has brought to the French public a realization of the magnitude of the movement. The comings and goings of force after force have impressed the residents of England with the might of their ally as nothing else has.
 Since the first days of May the growing volume has been apparent Wave after wave of American troops has moved forward from the ports of arrival through the country to rest camps and from them on to the ports of authorization with only enough pause to get the sea wobble out of the mems legs.
 The number of rest camps the name that has come to be applied to what really are concentration camps has been increased, and British traffic men are finding themselves heavily taxed to maintain interrupt ed the shuttle of shipping between England and France The British are doing that part of the work and American officers have been high in their praise of the efficiency dis played.
 Americans are in command of the men when they land and are respon- sible for them in the temporary camps and up to the point of going to the place where ships are waiting to carry them to France, but the transportation both across the coun- try and overseas is in the hands of men who have been moving the British millions since 1914.
 American soldier gets his first real step in the voyage he began at an American port At the port of de- barkation he is given scarcely a pause and no opportunity whatever to look around From the ship that brought him over he is marched di- rectIy to a waiting train. Then the journey to camp is begun. But the trains are fast and the country is small so the journey never is long
 When the train stops there is a march, usually for two or three miles but in some cases the column must move on foot for ten or twelve miles before camp is reached. To the Britisher who sees passing every day the thousands of men the sight is impressive.
 In London, at General Biddle's headquarters, statistical officers and officers of the Quartermaster Corps continuously go over tables of fi- gures that vary only as to the size of conveys vary, and direct the dis tribution of each new lot of arriv- als, and eventually their re-shipment to France.

the water without life preseryers. The
pilot OF the boat ordered full speed

persons down. Most of the crowd was
on the second deck where the dance
hall is located when the crash came

1t is possible. according to military

operations. but the belief is held that
he may surprise the German com

thrusts in local actions have failed TO
draw from the enemy a resumption
OF his strong offensive movements.
General FOch has employed the past
