Third Church of Christ, Scientist,

CABLE IS DOWN BETWEEN S|TKA
 AND THE SOUND

Seward is sort of isolated today in one sense of the word. During the night the cable between Sitka and Seattle went down and no word has been received here from Sitka as to where the break occurred and no word regarding repairs.
 North of Seward slide at Mile 43h crossed the wires and another slide north of Kern Creek took out the wire breaking communication be- tween here and Anchorage.
 The Gateway is today receiving press from al directions. Part of the press news is coming from Seattle via wireless to Ketchikan and then over the cable to Wrangcll, Sitka, to Seward.
 Other pres matter is coming from Astoria to Sitka, to Cordova, and is caught by the U. z Radio station at the head of Resurrection Bay. The cost per word is something terrific, but what news is happening, the Gate way is getting.

TELLS OF FIRST
 FLOTILLA GOING
 ACROSS THE SEA

NEW YORK, Jan. 31G(B. Mail Associated PresS). - How secretly the United States dispatched the first flotilla of torpedo-boat deStroyerS last April to join che British navy in the hunt for German submarines, was told for the first time publicly last night Dy Commander J. K. Tad2sig, U. S. N. who took them across the Atlansic.
 The narrative was related before an audience which thronged Carne- gic Hall to celebrate the opening of a war savings stamp campaign in this city. Commander TauSSig'S story of the work accomplished by the navY'S "grayhounds" far from home was 5ildly checred.

 "We were ten days in making the trip, due mostly to a southeast gale, which accompanied Us for seven ot tb, ton days. 50 rough was the SC . during this time that for seven of the days we did not set out mess tables. We ate oft our laps. On the ninth day we were pleased to be met by a little British destroyer naped the Mary Rose She picked us up early one morning and came along flying the international signal Welcome to the American colorS.'
 Things Looking Black.
 "They were very glad to see us Things were looking black. In the three previous weeks the submarines had sank 152 British ships. We imme- diately had depth bombs installed so as to fight the submarines. The night before we entered the harbor at Queenstown, a German submarine planted twelve mines right m the channel. Fortunately for us, they were swept up by the ever-vigilan' British niEe sweepers before we ar rived.
