The grocer thought one day that he
would Ike steak for his dinner as a

 |S IN FIRST CLASS
:Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

CHICAGO, Jan. 16.-Grover AleXan- der the pitcher for whom the Chicago Nationals paid $50,000 along with his battery mate. Catcher Killifer, told President Weeghman of the Chicago Club over the telephone from Omaha, Neb, today that he was surprised that he had been placed in class one of the selectiVe draft.
 The former Philadelphia star, who is unmarried said he had asked to be placed in a deferred classification on the ground that he was the support Of his aged mother and a brother, but that his request was denied. Alexander lives in St. Paul, Neb., a town of less than 5000 inhabitants. He said he was in doubt whether he would appeal.
 T don't want to be called a slacker,' he told Weeghman, and lay myself open to criticism, but I felt as if should have been placed in another class"

MORE ARRESTS
 MADE IN CASE

Developments in the scandal of few days ago when two local boys, Ollie Robertson and Herman w. Ash CT, were arrested on statutory charges brought additional arrests yesterday when J. A. Atkinson, uncle of the 13- year-old Glendale girl who is alleged to have been mistreated, was taken into custody by the officers. John $. Crawford, 15-year- old boy, is said to be implicated in the case of the other girl and was brought before Justice De SOuZa, who has transferred his case to the juvenile court.
 Atkinson, when arraigned in the west precinct court, urged that he be given an early trial. He said that he was not able to afford an attorney and that he did not need one. All he asked for he said, was that the girl tell the truth and that he be given justice in the courts. His preliminary exam ination was set for Friday afternoon at o'clock and Justice De SouZa placed his bond in the sum of s1 900 which he could not furnish. Atkinson is a married man and has two children. The misconduct charge against him is said to nave grown out out of a state

DAVE ANDERSON
 CHANGES MIND

Dave Anderson, said to have applied insulting epithets to former fellow en- ployes at the Sun Drug store after he was discharged from the place, was found guilty of disturbing the peace by Judge Trevillian yesterday afternoon and ordered 10 pay a fine of s15 or serve as many days in the city jail. An- derson who was represented by Attor- ney Anderson, filed notice of appeal but afterWard withdrew the nOtifica- tion and paid the fine, though his at torney advised the court that his client might take advantage of his right to take the case into the higher court at q later date.
 Anderson had $25 bail at the police station and requested that the court give him an order for the s10 difference coming to him.
 Testimony was furnished by Mir. ioury and AIr. Beckner, employed at he Sun Drug store, that Anderson came into the place, and while one of the men was counting the cash register checks, he demanded a match in a gruff tone, and then swept the cash register tickets off the counter and on- 10 the floor.
 I'll get yOu,' Anderson is quoted as having remarked as he left the place.
 AndersOnS case was continued re- gently when Attorney Anderson, rep fesenting him intimated that action might be brought to show that his eli Pnt had been falsely arrested The false arrest, it Was alleged, consisted in the taking into custody of Anderson prior To the swearing out and issuance of the complaint charging disturbance of the peace.
 When the matter of bail came UT yesterday, upon Attorney Anderson's First giving notice of the intention tc appeal Assistant City Attorney J. E Nelson recommended that the bail be fiXed somewhere around S100.
 That would be outrageous in a case

where the fine is but s15,7 said Attor- ney Anderson.
 That lies within the discretion of the court said Attorney Nelson.
 Tt is possible only to fix the bail at 200 per cent of the amount of the fine, 9 said Anderson.
 Attorney Nelson consulted authority and declared that as much as $500 could be demanded as bail. whereupon Attorney Anderson held that this was for surety bond and not for cash bail, which he said his client wanted to furnish.
 It was at this juncture that Ander- son, the defendant instructed Attorney Anderson to withdraw his notice of appeal.

ment made by the girl since her com mitment to the Detention Home. Be fore she was sent to that institution she was given every opportunity to re turn to her aunt and uncle with whom she has made her home for number of years. She refused to promise to remain in that home and the officers suspicious were arounsed. When in- terviewed at the Detention Home she is alleged to have told the authorities the reason, which sne gave as her uncle.
 Young Crawford, who is charged with mistreating the other girl, told the court that he had no mother. He said his father lived south of town but that he did not make his home with him. He will be given his hearing be- fore the juvenile authorities.

REBUILDING OF
 R0UNDHOUSE IN
 L'E ANA STARTS

Yesterday a crew of men started to work rebuilding the roundhouse at Nenana which was burned down the day before, and more carpenters will be put to work on it within a few days. Three crews of men. as announced in yesterday mornings Citizen, were laid off for the time being, but it will be put to work again as soon as possible. It is now thought that one of the locomotives will be in use again in about ten days. while another one may be re paired after a longer length of tim In the meantime supplies will b moved by horses if in no other way. and as many of the crews as pos sible will be kept on the job.
 Telegrams have been sent to Com missioner Riggs asking what course is to be followed, and all are eagerly awaiting his answer.
 A returning Fairbanksan who was in Nenana at the time of the fire, and who helped in fighting it. said that the roundhouse was completely destroyed. but that the water tank was only a little scorched. The only way this was saved, he said, was on account of the fact that the roundhouse was a corrugated iron building and the fire did not get 2 chance to spread very readily to sur' rounding buildings. There was only one small stream of water available to be played on the blaze. and f took long time to nut out. Whor dircovered tho roundhousc was or fire on all sides. and was seeth- ing mass of flames, which made it absolutely impossible to run out the engines. even though they were un-

 Tt Is confidently expected that our trade with South America, the Far East. South Africa and with Austra- la will not be too seriously interfer- ed with and that we may reap in the future the benefits of having cul- Itivated those markets so assiduously and intelligently during the past sew years"
 Exports to North American ccun- tries increased from $529 9.O00,000 in 1914 to S1,164, 100000 in 1917, gain of 120 per cent. Shipments to South America more than doubled, rising from s125.OO0,0O0 to s260,O00.O00.

 For the first time in the history of the United State. Europe took second place in selling goods to the United States. Imports of S766,000.- 900 from North America during the fiscal year 1917 were greater by s156. 100000 than the imports from Europe. The increase in purchases from North American countries was due largely to the greater value of sugar purchased from Cuba.

LoUlS KLOPSCH
 GAINS FAME AS
 TRENCH EDITOR

In a recent issue of the New York Telegraph appears an article, pub lished below, telling that Louis Klopsch. at one time editor of the d cfunct Fairbanks Times, is now in the trenches in France, and is editing newspaper issued in the trenches. Klopsch, on leaving here, went to Nv York, and was employed there on the publicity staff of the Metro Film company up to the time he joincd the army.
 The article referring to Klopsch reads as follows:
 A newspaper from the trenches is being printed somewhere in France" by the boys of Company c. 165th United States infantry, its editor and principal contributor being Louis Klopsch. of Metro. Klopsch was for merly a member of Metros publicity staff. The official organ of Company c is known as "C What Happens" The troops farewell message, a glow ing expression of patriotism, called forth the commendatory notice of President Wilson, who sent the boys letter of appreciation. The senti- ments that elicited the Presidents approval were these:
 Each man goes to France deter mined to do or die. Each man eh- ters the titanic struggle fully con- vinced that he is fighting in just cause. He seeks no praise for join ing the colors. He offers his life to his country willingly and is ready to pay the price at any time. He had had instilled in him by his off, cers the fact that discipline is es- sential to success. and he had steeled himself to obey instantly the com mand of his leader. Even though the command spells death, the men of Company c will respond eagerly as they do to pay call. That is the spirit of the company. Such a spirit can never be defeated.
 Our farewell message to our friends is to thank them all for their kindness to us during our period Of training on the plains of Hampstead, to promise them that by our deeds abroad we shall show them that their faith was not misplaced: to urge upon all faithful Americans tho necessity and benefit of mili- tary training: to congratulate the women on the spirit that urges the fingers trat have never before done co to knit, so that we may be as comfortable as possible in France. and a: last, to say to our dear ones, Don't worry Our return is certain. Some Of us may sleep forever on foreign soil, but whoever he is, be he private or officer, his will be the sleep of a hero, man who gave his life that the world might be made safe for democracy, and that future generations might be spared the crushing agony of tyrant's heel. Good-by, good luck, God bless you"
