Memphis c. of {. Man Visits
Somerville

ElwOod Lloyd of the staff of the Com.
mercial Appeal visited Somerville last
Friday in the interest ofimproved high.
ways. He came as the forerunner of
the Auto-Truck campaign that Is being
planned by the Chamber of Commerce,
the Automobile Club and other Mem
phis interests and organizations.
Several hundred road signs have been
prepared By these organizations at
considerable cost and are to be erected
at cross roads, mile lengths, etc.,
along all highways out of Memphis.
August Is has been set as the date
these signs with valuable information
for the traveller will be erected. On
that date auto-trucks will start from
Memphis on each highway, one coming
toward Somerville over the Stage road
with this city as its destination. They
will carry the most sensitive and accu-
rate measuring devices and will mark
each mile along the way. At the cross
roads will be erected the signs men,
toned. which will tell the traveller
which road to take for the several
places1 and tina distance
Il 0hAngssst 2ils train of 80 or, mOss
large trucks loaded withatre,ghs fsr,dsr
livery to the towns slong .bs reute will
leave Memphis for SOmsryille aud the
same number out each other highway.
This freight is all to be handled aud
delivered free of charge. in order 10
educate the public to auto.truck freight
service and show its practicability.
Mr.. Loyd's trip out here was for the
purpose Of examining roads, bridges
aud culverts to determine If it were safe
to attempt such a service over them
And he informs The Falcon and others
here that the bridges between Eads and
Somerville will not support the truck
train that would come over it and thai
unless strength Is given the structures
it will hardly be possible to send the
campaigning party out this line, What
could be done In so short time would
amount to but little. but his statement
emphasizes the fact that improvement.
in bridges and culverts along the route
are needed and that II we expect the
advantages accrueing from new enter
prises we must improve our highways
10 meet their needs.

FROM SALCHA COUNTRY
 $ OPTIMISTIC

According to reports received from Fairbanks by phone today, George Moody, who stampeded to the Salcha country, returned to Fairbanks today.
 He stated that Frank Lawson, Hirschberger and Williams, work ing on Joy creek. which: is about 75 miles from Munson's roadhouse, in the upper Salcha country, have sunk four holes, getting bedrock at from 12 to 21 feet, but they have not struck pay yet.
 Prospectors on the benches have banned colors and there is every indication of there being a pay streak near. ''
 Moody is very optimistic and thinks that there will be little camp in the Salcha country. He says the country where the pros pecting is going on looks very much like old Cleary creek. <
 He says he met sixteen men on the trail headed toward the dig gings. .. .

SEA FIGHTER IS
 CALLED BY DEATH

NEW YORK, Jan. 28.-Rear Admiral French E. Chadwick, of the United States navy, retired, passed away at his home yesterday, aged 75 years.
 Perhaps as a student and writer on naval affairs Rear Admiral Chadwick will have most enduring fame, although he served during the Spanish American war as chief of staff to Rear Admiral Sampson and was in all the most serious en- agreements in which the North At lantic squadron took part. He was recognized by President Mckinley, among others of the officers of that squadron, to be promoted five numbers for his gallant conduct in battle.
 1 For seven years, from 1882 to 1889, Rear Admiral Chadwick was naval attache of the American em- bassy in London and was com mended by Secretary of the Navy Tracy as one 'whose extraordinary ability and judgment during six years of difficult service in Eng land and on the continent have had a lasting influence upon naval de- velopments in this country"
 Born February 24, 1S44, in Mor- gantown, w. Va, Rear Admiral French Ensor Chadwick, retired, U. S. N., entered the United States Naval Academy in 1861, at New port, R. l., whither it had been re- moved on the beginning of the Civil War. In September, 1872, he was appointed instructor in mathematics in the naval academy, which post he held until 1875. Chadwick married in November, 1878, Cornelia Miller, daughter of John Blocker Miller, Utica, N. Y. In 1878 Chadwick was given a years leave of absence to report on the naval training systems in England, France and Germany, pre- pairing work which is still recog- nized as standard
 He was appointed in 1882 naval attache to the America embassy in London, where he remained until ! 1899. In 1891 he was named a member of the first board to es- tablish labor organizations of navy yards on the present civil service basis and he was inspector of ship building at the New York Navy Yard, where the Battleship Maine was then building. President Cleveland appointed him chief of the bureau of equip ment July 1, 1893, as successor to Commodore George Dewey. In 1897 he was ordered to the com mand of the battleship New York, flagship of the North Atlantic squadron, under Admiral Sigard
 The Maine was destroyed in Ha- vana harbor while the squadron was at Dry Tortugas and Chadwick was appointed member of the board of inquiry into the disaster.
 After his service in the Spanish American war, Rear Admiral Chad wick was appointed president of the Naval War College at Newport, occupying that position in 1903-04.
 Rear Admiral Chadwick was re- tired February 2S, 1906, since which time he has written much that is authoritative and of perman- ent value in regard to naval condi- tions in this and other countries. One of his most important works is entitled "The Relations of the United States and Spain: Diplo- macy, which gives an intimate account of the events that led to the Spanish-American war

W|CKERSHAM SAYS 1 WORKMENS NEEDS BEFORE CONGRESS

In response to the telegram sent to Delegate Wickersham by the Ne mana Commercial club and a com mittee representing the working men of Nenana in mass meeting assembled, protesting against the reduction of forces in the employ of the Alaskan Engineering com mission, and asking that immediate steps be taken to remedy matters and slave off impending distress, the following replies were received this morning:
 Nenana Commercial Club,
 Nenana, Alaska.
 Matter of appropriation for Alaska railroad being carefully considered by House Appropriation committee. Bill cannot probably pass congress much before March fourth; considerable agitation here about investigation Alaskan Engin- eering commission, but am looking after whole situation carefully"

 The reply to the workmen's com mittee was addressed to Frank Cleary, one of the members of the committee, and reads as follows: Frank Cleary,
 Nenana, Alaska.
 Matter appropriation railroad work being considered; appropria- tion committee acting very slowly, with much talk of investigation Alaskan Engineering commission; 1; nothing definite this time; matter being carefully attended to-.
 JAMES WICKERSHAM."
 In addition to the other telegrams sent, as chronicled in the News last evening, by both committees who are looking after the interests of this district, the committee of the workinmen sent the following messages last night to Senators Chamberlain of Oregon, and Jones of Washington:
 "Miners of Alaska, native of Ore gon and Washington, forced by high prices necessaries to abandon mining and seek employment on Fairbanks division Alaskan Engin- eering commission, subscribed promptly, willingly to extent of wages to Red Cross and Liberty Loan, are discharged destitute for lack money to continue work.
