YANKEES OUTWIT HUNS
DASH ACROSS mo MANS LAND"
AS ENEMY LOOKS ON.
American Colonel Captures German
Lieutenant While on Raid With
the French.

With the American Army in France,
March 9.--An American patrol COM
prising one officer and eight men which
had been missing since Wednesday
night in the sector northwest Of TOul,
suddenly emerged from a shell hole
close to the German lines Thursday
and made a dash across No Mans
Land without a shot being fired at
them.
1t was noon when the patrol carried
out its rush to the American line. The
mems comrades, looking on, expected
every second to see them wiped out
and their safe return was an agreeable
surprise. They explained that they had
lost their way in the dark.
An American staff colonel, while with
a French raiding party for the purpose
of securing information few days be-
fore his men took up their positions in
the new American sector on the Lor-
raine front, met Prussian lieutenant
in an enemy trench and captured him.
The colonel, with an American captain,
brought the Prussian officer back to
the lines the Americans are now oc-
cupying.

The map presented herewith shows
plainly how the collapse Of Russia has
brought on anew the menace of pam
Germanism and the conquest Of mid
die and eastern Europe, Asia Minor,
India, and even northwestern China.
The line of arrows shows the route
which the Germans now claim is
open to them. The collapse Of Russia
has given them the north coast Of the
Black sea. 1t puts them into posi-
ton either to sweep around the Black
sea or to cross 1t to Batoun Cor Ba-

The route by which Germany first
sought the entry into India is shown
by the dotted line. This route appar-
emily failed with the British successes

WILL FIGHT TEUTONsI
ENTIRE RUSSIAN PEOPLE ARM
TO RESIST INVADERS.
Foreign Minister Trotzky Declares
Maximalists Will Not Submit to
Defeat Of Revolution.

Petrograd, March 8.-The official
news agency announced that supreme
military council had been formed for
defense of the country. The commits
sioner for military affairs has issued
decree ordering that the entire people
be armed.
Commenting upon the signing of the
peace treaty, the Izvesta, organ OF the
workmen's and soldiers deputies, says
the purpose of the Lenine government
In agreeing to the German terms was
to give respite to the socialist revolu-
ton so as to enable it to reassemble IT'S
forces for the supreme struggle against
imperialism and to assist the prole-
tariat of other European countries to
revolt against it's oppressors.
The Pravda comments in a similar
vein.
The bolshevik leaders are prepared
to withdraw even as far as to the Urai
mountains rather than submit to the
defeat of the revolution, said Leon
Trotzky, bolshevik foreign minister,
in an interview with correspondent.
M. Trotzky said that If the bolshe-
wiki could go back to the state OF at
fairs which existed last October just
before they overthrow the Kerensky
government they would repeat the
whole program which has been put
through since that time.
"In October we did not exclude the
possibility Of a holy war; he de-
clared. 'sNow we consider such a
war possible. The workmen's and
soldiers delegates must now fight for
organization and order"
Moscow is to be declared the new
capital of Russia, and the government
proposes to publish statement to this
effect Immediately. Petrograd will be
proclaimed free port.

CASUALTY LISTS
HELD Up BY ROW
Pershing Says Use of Addresses
Gives Foe Valuable In
formation.
INDENTIFIES UNITS AT FRONT
creeI Contends Mere Issuance of
Names Is Not Keeping Pledge to
Relatives of SoIdiers-Lists
Held Up.

Washington, March 1.-THE war de-
partment has ruled that the military
casualty lists to be made public in
newspapers shall not include the emer-
gency addresses names and adj
dresses Of relatives or friends.
The committee on public informa-
ton, of which George Creel is chair
man, has refused to put out the cas-
ualty lists through its news channels
unless they include the emergency adj
dress.
The committee takes the ground
that a mere list of names without
means of Identification is not public
information.
Orders from the White House may
be necessary to straighten out the
matter.
Reports of casualties continue to ar
rive at the war department and have
been offered to the committee on pub
lie information in abridged form for
dissemination through the regular
news channels. They merely give the
mems names and ranks.
When Mr.. Creel and the chiefs OF
the news division learned that merely
the names were to be given out they
decided that the committee would moi
publish the lists.
The matter was under discussion for
two days. Some Of these discussions
were entirely uncensored. Mr.. Creel
stood firm for definite information on
the casualties, which has virtually been
pledged to the people by the president,
the secretary of war and the secretary
Of the navy, and Friday night the COM
mittee on public information issued
the following note to correspondents:
Inquiries Of Adjutant General Nc
Cain of the army disclosed the fact
that, while the department plans to
make public promptly the names Of all
casualties received, nothing will be
made public concerning dates, nature
of wounds inflicted, or their home adj
dresses in this country.
The information, it was stated, will
be withheld on recommendation of
General Pershing.

their first disaster at Kut-el-Amafa
returned to their attack, captured
Kut and then Bagdad, and their
lines now stand firmly across the
route north Of Bagdad. The Russian
lines for long time stretched south

vance across the Holy Land until they
now are within striking distance of
Aleppa, where a further advance by

BAD NEWS FOR BERLIN

The war news from the Western front these days is bad news for the German people. Quotations from German newspapers portray the gloom that overhangs the people in the large cities. That the people in the small towns and country are equally depressed is not to ',e doubted.
 The Liberty Loan bond buyers of the preceding loans have their share in the success of the Entente Allies. They furnished the sinews of war, not only to fight the U- boats and to build ships, not only to raise, equip, and send our sol diers over, not only to supply them and our allies with food and muni- tions, but more than $6,000,O00,00O of their money has been loaned to our allies so that they may prose, cute the war with vigor and strength
 We here at home have an oppor. tunity to send the Germans some more bad news. The Germans have great respect for money; they know its vital value in waging war. They know, too, that the support the united American people give a Government loan measures largely the support they give their Govern. ment, the moral as we'll as the finan cial support they give their armies in the field.
 A tremendous subscription to the Fourth Liberty Loan will be as dis. dressing to the German people as a defeat for them on the battle field and it will mean as much. It spells their defeat; it breaks their morale it means power to their enemies A subscription to the loan is con. tribution to German defeat anc American victory.

COHAN SCORES HIT
 IN BROADWAY JONES

George M. Conan, in Broadway Jones'" is without doubt the most pleasing comedy thus far seen at the Coliseum and was enjoyed to the utmost by the large crowd which witnessed the production last night. Broadway Jones" in pictures is George Conan from beginning to end, and those who know this cele- brated stage star know what that means.
 In the opinion of prominent New York critic writing in the Jour- nal, George NJ. Conan in Broad way Jones" is the greatest comedy six-reel feature that has ever been produced in front of any audience. George Conan is George Conan, whether he is on the stage, on the street, or on the screen, and this moving picture has stamped him the greatest artist in the world"
 The comedy is agreeably free from slap-stick stuff. It is brim full of unadulterated, honest-to-goodness fun of the higher order and runs with smoothness seldom found in the comedy productions of the day. It is a high class performance in every respect and is deserving of the best that Nenana has in the way of support. At fifty cents for general admission, it is one of the biggest bargains ever offered local theater- goers.
 The show will be repeated to- night, commencing at eight o'clock.

It is expected at Nome that not more than 25O people will be left in that city this winter, so great has been the rush of inhabitants to the Outside. There are so many empty buildings in the city that town people talk seriously of tearing some of them down and using the lumber as firewood, for with coal over $50 per ton it would be cheaper to burn a building than buy a few tons of coal.
