That Secretary Lane is not dis

department for sufficient funds to
complete the Alaska railroad, is indi-
Gated by a telegram from the sec
retary, which reached the local Of

commission late yesterday afternoon.
The telegram shows also that the

Central Alaska and appreciates the
advantage of holding the railroad

of sufficient funds to permit of in
creased activities, such as will be
necessary to complete the railroad
in 1921.
The telegram, addressed to Engi-
neer in Charge Fred'k D. Browne
and signed by Secretary Lane, reads
as follows:
Il have forwarded recent tele-
graphic communications between this
Office and you and appreciate fine

FUNCTION HEADED
FOR GOLD STRIKE

According to arrivals on the
steamer Yukon, Jim Function and
Bert johnson, both former residents
of the Interior country, have re-
turned North to investigate a re-
ported strike in the Chandlar dis
trict. They made the trip down
river from Dawson on the steamer
Yukon, leaving the boat at Beaver,
from which point they will travel
overland to the Chandlar They are
taking pack-horses and small out
fit with them, sufficient to last until
they have concluded their investiga-
tions.
Function was inclined to be Sc
cretive about the supposed find, but
it was learned that he had been
informed by letter of the discovery
of placer gold in the Chandlar, and
had sufficient confidence in the re-
port that he brought johnson along
to help him get into the district.

Jones IS EAGER
TO GET UP RACE

Frank Jones, winner of the mile
race during the late celebration, is
now trying to get up another race,
and has authorized the Portland to
issue a formal challenge in his name.
Jones is willing to meet anyone in
the district, for any amount, for a
mile run.
Local sport enthusiasts believe
that the action of Jones will result
in a revival of interest in foot
racing in Interior Alaska, and the
presence of many runners of local
fame in and about Nenana insures
some lively contests if they can be
induced to re-enter the game.
The hope is expressed that SUI
fcient interest can be aroused to
start the runners training, at least,
in which event a good race meet
can undoubtedly be arranged for
the celebration planned for Labor
Day.

enroute from Montreal to Liverpool,
has been compelled to abandon the
voyage temporarily as the result of
an encounter with an iceberg off
Cape Race. The vessel was consid-
erably. damaged by the collision and
compelled to return to port for re-

of two persons and the injury of
two others.
Luck favored the vessel. A less
fortunate blow might have been
followed speedily by the laundering
of the ship, in which event the lives
of the $50 passengers on board
would have been in grave danger.

RESUMPTION Of
GERMAN TRADE

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 10
In a conversation with newspaper
correspondents this morning, Presi-

the promptness with which the Ger
man national assembly had ratified
the peace treaty.
This action on the part of the
Germans, the President pointed out,
makes possible an early resumption
of trade relations between the Ger
mans and the Allies, and he ex-
pressed the hope that the Germans
would be given the opportunity to
develop their suffering industries.
Without trade, the President said,
the Germans will be unable to meet
their reparation payments.
