NEW YORK MEN
 DETAILED: FOR SUPPLY GUARD

LONDON. Feb. 20.-R-According to Berlin despatches 8 large force of American troops have arrived in that city and are quartered in vari. ous hotels. many of them being talk. en over for the purpose.
 According to the despatch the con tingent is composed of the 18th New York regiment. The duty to which they will be assigned Is the protection of food shipments from the United States. many shiploads of which are expected to arrive at a near date.
 The Berliners who have never seen an American soldier are viewing the men as a great curisoity. The fight ing qualities of the men have filled the Germans with wholesome re- spect and no derrogatory remarks have been heard concerning their presence in the city. AS soon as the food trains arrive 1t is believed that the men will have their work cut out for them as thousands of the people are hungry for substan- tial food.

SENATOR JONES
 WANTSLAW FOR
 LIBERTY BONDS

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1s.-R- Senator Wesley L. Jones. of the state of Washington has suggested that legislation be enacted designed to maintain the price of Liberty bonds. Several other senators have made public statements in which they de. plore the fact that the bonds are selling below par and state this will have bad influence on the minds of many small holders.
 Senator Jones severely criticized the national banks for discounting the bonds when purchased by them from individuals. He said that 1t was the duty of these institutions to maintain the par value of the secur- ities and that they should never be bought for less than they were or. isinally sold.
 IL Is entirely probable that mea. sur:' will be introduced in the senate providing punishment for any person selling CT buying Liberty bonds be. low their par value: Ths senator stated that something should be done immediately and that a federal law was the only effective way of stop ping such transactions.

RELIEF VESSEL
 ON WAY ASSIST
 THE ALEUTIANS

SEATTLE, Feb. .9.-(F1-Loaded with five hundred tons of foodstuffs, the schooner Bender Brothers sailed today for the isolated regions of the Aleutian Islands. There Is such a scarcity of food in that district that starvation for great number of people is seriously threatened.
 If 1t is considered necessary the schooner plans to stop at Seward for an additional cargo. The vessel is making a rush trip, and with the exception of possible stop at Seward does not intend to put into any port until she reaches her des. tination.
 Several reports have been received in this city of the pathetic conditions in the isolated regions of the Aleu. tians. Some of the reports state that a number of natives have died of starvation, while a great many more are barely able to keep body and soul together.
 The food being shipped to the is' lands consist for the greater part of staples.

SMALL FIRE IN BUTTE MINE IS
 EXTINCUISHED

BUTTE. Feb. 19.--(P)-A small blaze at the Speculator mine last night was successfully extinguished before it had gained any headway. The officials believe that the fire was of incandiary origin. They are confident that an investigation will show that the blaze was the work of the dissatisfied labor element. The damage by the flames was very slight as they were discovered shortly after the fire started. It Is believed that this was an attempt on the part of the l. w. w to des- troy the surface workings of the mine. which was hoped would result in great loss to the company.
 This is the same mine in which 160 miners lost their lives in fire in June 1917. These men were trap. ped below the ground and 1t was i'm. possible for them to be rescued.
 The mines in this district still maintain guards around their prop erty and will continue to do so as long as there is any danger of labor trouble.
