 Action In France.

CAMP LEWIS.-The Ninety first Division of the American army now at the front, composed of Califor- nians, Alaskans, Oregonians, Wash ingtonians and other Westerners who had undergone training at this camp for nearly year before being sent to the front, have been in ac- tion recently and have earned the plaudits of the American command CTS by their gallantry under fire.
 In a recent action on the Western front, the division suffered heavy casualties when circumstances would not permit of either their advance or withdrawal. As consequence the division has been relieved for rest and reorganization.

 In some of the states where gov ernors were also elected, the Repub- licans again predominate The News advices are as follows:
 Washington.

Dr. John Summers, of Walla Walla, Repubh- can, defeated w. W. McCroskey for seat held by W. L. LaFollette Rep resentative Miller, Hadley and John son, all of whom are Republicans. were reelected State supreme Court Justices Mouk, Main and Mitchell were reelected.
 New York
 NEW YORK-Both the New York World and the Times concede that the Republicans have gained the con trol in both houses of Congress. The Times claims that the Republi- cans have a majority of four in the Senate, and ninteen in the House of Representatives.

CONTEST IS CLOSE
 IN DELEGATE RACE

It is apparent from the returns thus far received that political senti- ment throughout Alaska has under gone very little change during the past two years. At all events, it is impossible at this time to state definitely the outcome of the con test for delegate to Congress, not withstanding the fact that the chief towns of the territory have com pleted their count and made known the result. As was the t.ase two years ago, the contest is so close that the result will not be known probably until most of the outlying precincts in the several divisions have forwarded their returns, in which event the election will not be decided positively for some time.
 At a late hour this afternoon, Wickersham was credited with lead of sixty odd votes in the terri tory. It is conceded that he haa carried the Second division, while Sulzer is believed to have a safe margin in the Third division. The result in the Fourth division is still very much in doubt and both parties are claiming the First division, with many precincts yet unheard from.
 Of the larger towns of the terri tory, Wickersham carried Nome, Ne mana, Fairbanks, Ketchikan, Wran- gell, Petersburg, Anchorage and Cordova; Sulzer's majorities were in the smaller precincts, with only a few of the larger towns to his credit, notably Valdez, Seward, Sitka, and Kodiak. The towns along the rail road to the north of Anchorage also gave Sulzer substantial majorities.
 Fourth division Democrats are practically certain of electing their candidate for the Senate, Luther c. Hess, and at least three of their can

Chosen Delegation From German Empire Leave to Discuss Peace

AMSTERDAM to re- ports received in this city today from German sources, the delegates chosen by the German government to arrange the terms of an armistice with the Allies have left Berlin, bound for the Western front.
 It is not known how many mem bers there are in the delegation or where they will meet the Allied rep resentatives. The inter-Allied peace councils were held at Versailles, a suburb of Paris, and came to an end only recently, and it is thought that the representative of the Allied powers may meet the German dele gation at the same place.

have reversed the Democratic con trol of the House of Representatives but both parties claim control in the Senate. The indications are that the Senate will possibly be tied. In the House of Representatives ap- parently the Republicans have filled 225 out of the 435 seats. The Democrats have filled 191; the So- cialists l, and the Independents 1.
 In the Senate the Republicans and Democrats have each seated 45 sen ators, and the incomplete returns from six contests, so far, show that three Democrats and three Republi- cans will be elected.

SEATTLE-During the prevalence of storm, when heavy sea was running and stiff gale of wind blowing, the steamer Humboldt, which was proceeding on her voyage and laboring in the heavy sea, gal lantly launched her life boats and rescued the crew of the Canadian fishing vessel Itwaco.
 The latter vessel was driven by stress of weather on the rocky coast of Green Island, British Col umbia, and became total loss. The Humboldt hove in sight in the nick of time, as otherwise the crew of the Itwaco would surely have been lost.
