On June Tth. the construction 't roads and trails in Alaska received serious setback when .re House miii' tary affairs committee reported favor ably the item of Sl00000 tt the con' tinuance of the work of the AlaSSI ! Road Commission. Before the United States entered the war, these appro- priationS annually amounted to from SSOO.0OO to $500.000
 Three years ago Brig. Gen WildS P. Richardson who was executiv officer of the Alaska road commlS' sion, but who is now in command or the American forces at Archangel' Russia, outlined q plan to build slo'- OOo. 1000 worth oi military roads and trails in Alaska. which also could Sv ased ss feeiess for the federal rail road under construction in the te"- ri,ory. The plan had the support of the Interior Department General Rich ardson was called to Washington as soon as war was declared and sent "a France almost immediately thereafter. The force of the Alaska road commis' sion at the same time. and since the road and trail construction ia Alaska has languished.
 Hundreds of miles of wagon rosas are needed in Alaska if the railroaa is to be successfully operated. and l. is probable that the Interior Depart ment will ask for an approprlat'oH for this work before the session ends. At present, however. Secretary Lane is bending every effort to secure ies'S, ,a.;on to complete the Alaska rallroaa and the enactment of the soldier set tiement bill.
 The estimate submitted for the work to be done this season was S'oo'' 900, but the Eastern representatives on the committee fought the item so vigorously that it was cut down two-.hirds. Members objecting to the nsssave of the item said these appro' nr;ations had been made from yeas 10 wear on the understanding that the work would be completed in ten years which time already has elapsed. The attitude of the committee plainly ind'" csted that if any future road building Is .o be done in Alaska it must be done by some other branch of the gov ernment than the War Department.

CREMATION 0F KAISER
 BE BIG EVENT DAWSON

Alec" Seelcy is preparing the grandcst event of his life. to take place when the peacetreaty is signed. Seeiey has gathered his chattels in vacant lot in the heart of the city. ana piled them high, and will cremate the kaiser thereon. Accumulations of years are there. When the signal comes flashing through to him from Marshal Foch that the Huns have put their fists to the paper that binds them forever. Seeley will strike the match. The blaze will be on. and See. ley says it will be great enough to be seen in Berlin. The dummy form of the Kaiser will be cast into the flames and consumed while Seeley and his friends do the victory dance. Seeley has many sleighs and lots of good wood beside the present heap of waste material. and it is expected he will be. come excited and throw the good in with the bad. At any rate he promises to burn all the accumulations of years. The material. torn from old buildings, forms high mass, and is on the lot near Princess and Fourth. Seeley has arranged for a line of hose with which to guard the flames.
 4 pile of refuse also has been placed ,n the beach, to be used for one of the big peace bonfires. Fire Chief Andy Hart. who is dimantling an old build- ing on First avenue. opposite the fire hall, also is sending much material tc the beach for the bonfire.-Dawson News.

HUN PRoP0GANDA CAUSED STRIKE
 IN SPAIN

BARCELONA. SPAIN. June 24-- By 4. P.-- German propaganda and the spread of Bolshevik ideas among the working men are, in part. blamed for the general strike which took place here recently. It is generally believed that the Germans have all along been working to create trouble among the Spanish laboring men. Their machin' ations during the war were exposed bv the Madrid daily Fl Sol which showed how the German Embassy was i'm plicated in provoking labor troubles both in Barcelona and Madrid. It was reported two weeks ago that wire less message had been intercepted ask ing that funds be sent here for propa- ganda work.
 The wealth which the war brought to this manufacturing district of Spaid was not shared by the working people. While the cost of living steadily in creased, wages remained unaltercd o: inSufficiently increased.
 BolShevik ideas began to spreai and were judiciously fostered by un- identified persons who provided funds and organizations. All workers includ- ing clerks in offices were forced by threats to join the labor syndicateS. Those who refused were warned by anonymous letters and if they disre- garded these warnings were murdered by masked men. The police failed to discover the authors of these crimes. The strike began among the em ployes of the light and power comp
 any and the city was left without street cars or electric light. The gov ernment mobilized the strikers but tht tramway conductors refused to talk" the cars out under military orders an" were arrested and taken 10 the fort. ress of Montjuich.
 Finally the Madrid government oh liged the light and power company to concede the demands of the men but the army authorities refused the de
 mand of the union that the imprisoneH
 conductors be liberated.
 The general strike ensued and the 'ity was left without light, power O
 transport. There is good authority for stating that the strike leaders had
 planned general pillage of the city IS serious as that which took place i,' 1909.
 Martial law was proclaimed and t".
 military authorities stationed machin' guns in the leading thoroughfare' while special conStables maintained
 order in the side streets. The soldiers supplied electric light and water but 10 street ears were opeatcd. No Barcc
 Iona papers were printed for severa' lays and the Madrid papers received here were torn from the hands of tn" vendors. Eventually the authoritie' | gained the upper hand and normal
 conditions were resumed.
 1 The censorship made it impossible to wire details.

F|L|P|N0S TO
 MAN FIRST DESTROYER

SAN FRANCISCO, June 24- By 4. P.-- For the first time in the hIs- tory of the United States navy, an American destroyer and submarine, when completed, will make their maid en trip out of here with petty officers and crew composed entirely of filipin- oS.
 Ninty-seven FilipinOs are taking the course at the Mare island navy yard, near here, which will fit tnem for duty aboard the new ships. Others will come until the tatal complemen; of IA men for the destroyer ana thirty-nine for the submarine hav@ been assembled.
 The destroyer Jose Rizal, and the submarine ESQ now building at the Union Iron works here are the gifts of the Philippines to the United State, navy. When they are placed in con- mission the Philippines will enjoy the distinction not only that they have paid for the ships, but that they have also supplied the crews to man them.
 Heretofore F'ilipinos have been aI- lowed to enlist in the United StatcS navy, with few exceptions in tn" .ASiatic Station. only as mess attend ants. When the Philippines announc- ed it's gifts, an order was issued by he navy department to the command ing officer of every ship afloat to no. ninatc from his crew such t'ilipinos lS he considered desirable to form the supplements for the new vessels. The boys also were allowed to make appli- 'ation for the assignment.
 At Mare island they are being givcr curses in Seamanship, ordnance. and orpcdo work, signalling and infantry IS well as special training in electrical school, gas and engine school and the artificeS' school for carpenters, paint CTS, blacksmiths and coppersmithS.
 The crew of the submarine will l. made up entirely of volunteers. Eff teen already have spoken for this lirr of work and when they finish theiI "ourSe at Mare Island they will Dc sent to San Pedro, Cal, for futhei instruction.
 The Filipinos here. many of whom have served in the conStabulary serv- ice of the islands, show an adaptabi'. 'ty to discipline, a general interest ir their work and a willingness and abil- ity to master the courses which they are taking, according to their officers.
 Commander F.. F. Root. now on duty at the Union Iron Works in connec- tion with the completion of the Jose Rizal, the date of which is set foi June 25. will command the destroyer and all other officers will be regular naval acadamy men. At Mare Island the crew which is to serve under him is being prepared for it's work by Cap' tain Marcus l.. Miller, retired and Lieutenant Commander J. T. Alexan- der, executive officer of the training camp.
