BAD TRAIL DOES
 SERIOUS INJURY
CITY VISITORS SAY THE TRAIL. CONDITIONS CUT DOWN
 TRAIL TRAFFIC.

"The condition of the trail within a short distance of Fairbanks is in- turing trail traffic to great extent" stated a prominent visitor to this town yesterday. He said that he had come the entire distance from Chitina to Fairbanks only to get stuck in the mud in Fairbanks front yard.
 AS an illustration it is pointed out that a recommendation was recently made to General Morrison, now en- route to Alaska on an inspection tour to come to Valdez and be prot in from there to Fairbanks by automobile. But when Captain Faust arrived here Saturday he said that he would be compelled to advise the commanding general of the western department to take the river route as the trail was not in shape for comfortable travel ing. The captain himself was stuck in a bad hole near the Nine-mile road house which he said was the worst he had encountered on the trip.

DEMPSEY PUTS
 MAN TO SLEEP

TOLEDO, June 23.- R Jack Dempsey has become somewhat vex- ed at various boxing critics here who have stated that his sparring part her has been hitting him with ire quency. In order to demonstrate that he is a better man than any partner he now has or ever had, Dempsey today knocked cut Bill Tate, giant negro boxer.
 The critics admit that Tate has ex- ceptional ability as boxer and Dempsey hopes by his knockout to put an effective stop to the criti- cism. The sale of ringside seats in- creases daily. Tex Rickard announc- ed this evening that four hundred thousand dollars in cold hard cash has been given up to date by de- voices of the manly art who desire to witness the championship battle. Rickard is now wearing the smile that won't come off because the financial success of the venture has been as- sured by these sales.

FIGHTING HAS
 BEEN RESUMED
 AFTER A TRUCE
AFTER SEVEN DAYS TRUCE ES- THONIANS AND GERMAN LAND WEHRS RESUME HOSTIIITIES EFFORTS TO EFFECT PEACE FUL SETTLEMENT FAILED.

COPENHAGEN. June 23.-(R-It now seems that it is impossible for any outside nation to arrange an un- derstanding between the Estonians and the German Landwehrs of the Baltic provinces. British representatives for the past seven days have vainly en- deavored to effect a settlement be tween the two warning factions.
 A truce for one week was arranged between the Germans and Esthonians for the purpose of determining wheth- CT or not peace could be arranged. The hostilties were resumed this morning and the fighting now GOV CTS the territory between the Gulf of Riga and Ronnenburg.
 Neither the Germans nor the Els thonians were willing to make any concessions, declaring they would much prefer to fight it out The truce was originally arranged at the behest of the British who believed a settlement of the difficulties could be effected providing there was an intermediate party but they have now temporarily abandoned hope of an i'm mediate peace.
