 Assuming that the bill, as passed by the senate, provides only for the authorization of an appropriation. it will be necessary to ask Congress now to appropriate the money in special act; but in view of the fact that both branches have given their approval to the railroad plans, no difficulty is anticipated in securing the needed funds. In the meantime, it will be possible for the Alaskan Engineering commission to assume obligations beyond the previous limit of s35,00O,000.

 AS in the opening game yester- day, the defeat of the visiting team was due largely to poor pitching, the work of Claude Williams today being much below average, due to walking men to bases. Otherwise he pitched good game. allowing the Reds only four hits, each of which, unfortunately, was preceded by a walk to first.
 H. F. Sallee held down the mound for the Reds, and was hit fairly hard, the visitors taking him down the line for ten hits. But he pulled himself out of several bad holes.

 OPEN BREAK BY
 GOING 10 FRAU

WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. D. In a statement made before the senate today, Secretary Daniels eN plained that the landing of American marines at Frau, on the coast of Dalmatia, probably averted an open break between Italy and Jugo- Slavia. The timely arrival of the marines, he says, in response to the appeal of an Italian admiral, un- doubtedly prevented bloodshed, which might have developed into war between the unfriendly nations.
 The secretary informed the sena- tors that he had received detailed account of the landing from Ad- miral Knapp.
 Order is reported to have been restored at Frau, but the feeling is such that further trouble is ex- pected at any time. Feeling along the entire coast is running high.
