UNION URGING
 MEMS RELEASE
LOCOMOTIVE FIREMEN AND EN- GINEERS URGE RELEASE OF
 MOONEY AND DEBS

DENVER. June 11.-P)-A resolu. tion was passed today by the nation. al convention of the Brotherhood of Railway Locomotive Bremen and Engineers urging that Eugene " Debs and Thomas Mooney be releas' ed from prison immediately. The convention is now holding its annual session and this resolution was one of the first questions to be brot up
 Debs, several times socialist candi- date for President of the United States, is now serving term in a federal prison for seditious state. ments made by him when delivering an address several months ago Mooney is in California prison convicted of complicity in the bomb. ing of the Preparedness parade in San Francisco in 1916. Ever since Mooney's arrest, socialists and the I. w. WIS have worked for his re lease but to no avail.
 The resolution passed at the con- vention today states that the evi. dence upon which both Debs and Mooney were convicted did not con clusively prove their guilt.

chance employment in fall and win ter, and they should be discharged promptly now before laborers come from states. These men came for ward with their services when the government needed them and it is in- justice to keep them longer in ser vice and at government expense if they are not needed. May we urge that orders for their discharge be ex- pedited as much as possible"
 The club expects to receive some answer from the army officials re- garding some date for discharge. If none is received within a reasonable time. it is probable that it will then take the matter up in Washington either direct with the department or thru number of western representa- lives or senators who have shown their interests in Alaskan matters. No efforts to assist the boys in pro- curing their release from the military service will be- left undone.

 IN MANY YEARS.

George w. Pennington, territorial representative from this division, for merly of Fairbanks but recently a resident of Nenana, writing from Jul neau on May last to the local Igloo Pioneer Women of Alaska, said:
 "I suppose you good women of Fair banks who, like myself, have made sacrifices in coming to this northland. will be interested to know that I am on my way to San Francisco, thence down thru the Panama Canal and up the east coast to New York, where I shall meet once more my two daugh- ters and my boy. who will be return ing from France about the first of June.
 "They were mera babies when left them twenty-two years ago. the eldest just past four years old, and how can ever square myself with them is more than can tell. About the only real consolation I have is that their grandmother has brot them up in a manner that should fill any fathers heart with pride, and I return to find them far more successful in life than their daddy. leave you old friends to imagine the reunion that looms up ahead of me-"

ULTIMATUM IS SUBMITTED TO RAILWAY WAR BOARD BY OR GANIZED SHOPMEN STATING ALL DEMANDS MUST BE GRANT ED BY NEXT TUESDAY.
Railway Sllop'1,en
 Submit Ulti,l1atul,l
IF DEMANDS ARE REFUSED SHOP MEN THREATEN TIE UP EVERY RAILWAY IN CANADA; STRIKE WILL AFFECT AT LEAST THIR- TY THOUSAND EMPLOYEES.

MONTREAL, June 10.-P)-Cana- dian railways are threatened with a serious strike which will, no doubt tie up every road operating in the Dominion The organized railway shopmen have issued an ultimatunl to the railway war board threatening to call general strike unless all their demands are granted by next Tuesday.
 The strike, should it take effect will call out thirty-five thousand men and will mean that all railways in Canada will have to temporarily stop operations.
 The ultimatum states that the shop men are unanimous in this demand and will stand together in the strike unless the board makes the conces sions requested. The men are very much dissatisfied with the wages they receive and the conditions un- der which they work.
 It ,is feared that the shopmen will make an endeavor to get the traiJ men to also make demands on the board. No intimation has been given out by the war board as to its prob able action on the ultimatum of the shopmen and it is hardly thot likely that an answer will be ready before the first of next week.

SEARCHERS ARE AT HOME FROM
 UPPER TANANA
ASSISTANT DISTRICT ATTORNEY PRATT AND PARTY ARRIVED IN TOWN EARLY YESTERDAY MORNING NOTHING DEFINITE KNOWN

Assistant District Attorney Harry Pratt and Deputy U. s. Marshal Me Mullen arrived in town early yester- morning from the upper Panama river where they made an investigation in to the disappearance of Henry High. quist, who has been missing for sev- eral months from his customary haunts. It is believed in some quar- ters that Highquist, is dead, whether from accidentally drowning in the waters of the Panama or otherwise is not known.
 The officials making the trip say that the party visited the scene oi Highquist's labors, his cabin and the vicinity of his trap line, talked with numerous persons, both white and na tive, and uncovered nothing which might be considered significant.
 Highquist, according to one report current, was enroute down the Ia mana to Fairbanks for visit, and his boat was found on the riverbank showing signs of having been struck by sweepers from which it was con cluded that he himself had beer thrown from the boat and drowned This report was investigated and the party discovered the boat supposed to be Highquist's on sandbal above McCarty some distance. The boat had fairly large hole torn ir it's side, apparently made by project ing sweeper and showed signs of hay ing been filled with water and drag ged over the river gravel by the cur rent. It was upside down and partly filled and covered with sand.
 Leaving the boat the party next went to the cabin formerly occupied by the missing man, where search was made from which nothing tangi ble was gained. Another cabin sup posed to be located on Sheep creek could not be located, but cache for merly used by Highquist was found but nothing of importance was learn ed there.

WASHINGTON, June 1O.-R)- )- General Aguilar, governor of the Mexican state of Vera Cruz and son. in-law of President Carranza, is in this city endeavoring to enlist the aid of the United States in obtaining Mexico's admission into the league of nations. The Mexican official ar. rived here Saturday night but would not disclose at that time the reason for his being sent to the United States by the Mexican government General Aguilar carries credentials to President Wilson.
 A consultation was held today be- tween the Mexican general and Frank Lyon Polk, solicitor for the state de partment. After leaving MT. Polk, General Aguilar called on MT. Harry P. Fletcher, ambassador to Mexico. Both visits are thot to be in connec. tion with America aiding Mexico to obtain admission to the league.
 After remaining here for few days, General Aguilar will proceed to Paris where he will pay an of ficial visit to President Poincaire. From Paris, he will go to London, where he hopes to induce the Brit ish officials to restore diplomatic re-

SUBMARINE IS
 BELIEVED LOST
BRITISH ADMIRALTY ANNOUNCES SUBMARINE MISSING SINCE
 JUNE THE FOURTH

LONDON, June 1I.-(P)-Accordine to an announcement made today by the British admiralty, an English submarine operating in the Baltic sea has been officially missing since June fourth.
 The officials are at loss to ac. count for the disappearance but say that all efforts to locate the missing boat have proved of no avail. The opinion has been formed that the under-sea boat foundered with all or board.
 It is presumed that some accident caused the submarine to sink while cruising alone in some part of the Baltic sea and as there were no sur vivors, no one can tell just how ol where the boat sank. A close search for the sub has been conducted evel since it was reported missing but no clew has been found to date.
