TO CONSTRUCT TWO
 LARGE HANCARS

WASHINGTON, July 15.-(Corres- pondence Associated Press.) Acting under specific authority granted in the new naval appropriation bill, the navy department soon will start con Struction on two of the largest dirig ible hangars in the world. Rear Ad miral Taylor and Parks, heads of the bureau of construction and repairs and yards and docks, respectively, to- day had instructions to speed up the preparation of the working plans, as an expenditure of about $3,5OO,00O for two hangars to house flying machines of the Zeppelin type has been author
 zed. They will be located on the seaboard, probably in New Jersey, and possibly on the same site.
 Ground area necessary for the con- struction of double hangar will be will be about 800 feet long, 250 feet wide and from l50 to 200 feet high. It is probable that all steel construc- tion will be used and officials esti- mate that from six to eight months will be needed for their erection.
 Provisions for the purchase abroad of a Zeppelin type airship at cost not to exceed $2,5OO,OOO is made in the naval bill, and the construction in this country of similar machine at cost of $1,50O,O00. It is prob able that the machine purchased abroad will be of the British R-34 model altho larger. It probably will be flown to this country by an Amer ican crew, the only other alterna- tive being to attempt to tow it by cables made fast to a ship. Nego- tiations looking to the purchase have already been entered into with for eign nations.
 After experiments with the foreign craft the construction of an improv- ed American built machine will be started.

 Baloash is being held in the local federal tail on an open charge pend ing the outcome of the affray.

KNIFE WOUNDS
 MAY BE FATAL
 TO CREEK MAN
OBRAD ZERICH IN ST. JOSEPHS s UFFERING WIT II KN IF F. WOUNDS INFLICTED BY JOHN BALOASH HELD BY FEDERAL AUTHORITIES

Seriously injured by three knife wounds inflicted by John Baloash Monday night, Obrad Zerich is lying in St. Joseph's hospital lowering near the border line between life and death. IL is possible that his wounds may prove to be fatal altho Dr. Me Callum, who is attending him, stated yesterday that his chances for recoV- cry could be considered better than even.
 The knifing happened Monday night in Pete Boinish's cabin near the mouth of Engineer creek. Boinish, it is understood was present at the time and hurried to Metzger's at Fox from where aid was summoned from Fairbanks for the wounded man. Three wounds were inflicted on Fer ich, all of them being made by q or three inches long. The knife was found on Baloash when he was ar rested yesterday morning in Fair banks. It is of medium size and ap- parentlly new The point of the blade with which the cutting was done is broken off, possibly break ing at the time the attack was made. BloOdstainsj are still on the blade, al tho it had apparently been partially cleaned
 The message received by Dr. Me Callum Monday night shortly before said that man was bleed ing to death in a cabin at the mouth of Engineer creek. He procured d car and went to the place described without delay. On arriving there he found Zerich covered with blood and upon examination found that two slashing cuts had been made about the head, one on each side of the neck, one of which had severed an artery just behind and below the ear, and a third stabbing blow that had penetrated from the back and touched one of Zerich's lungs.
 The blood lost by the injured man has greatly weakened him and the in

WILLIAMS LEG
 BADLY SMASHED
 AS TREE FALLS
HARRY WILLIAMS LEG BROKEN BY FALLING TREE DOCTOR RTSHES TO HEAD OF SHAW CREEK TO GIVE NECESSARY ATTENTION

Arriving in town yesterday after stated that Harry Williams had his leg broken last Saturday by a falling tree. The break is described as q compound fracture below the knee, and according to the Inflammation received the end of the broken bones prn'rudfng from the flesh so great was the force of the blow that caused the injury.
 MT Williams, with Frank Lawson and E W Hershberger, recently left town with packhorses for the Shaw creek district where they have been prospecting for two or three years. The accident occurred last Saturday morning on upper Shaw creek about forty miles from Richardson.
 Immediately after the accident Mr. Lawson, taking two horses, came across the ridges to the Richardson telegraph station, arriving there Sun day afternoon late He got in touch with Dr. Hall here and the latter left in short time on a KarstenS auto for Richardson, arriving there at mid night Sunday.
 As early as it was light enough to travel both Dr. Hall and Mir Lawson left for the scene of the accident and probably arrived there late Monday night or early Tuesdty. Dr. Hall will put the injured man in as good condition as possible under the cir cumstances It is understood that q canoe or polling boat will be sent UP Shaw creek and MT Williams brot 10 Fairbanks for treatment and care as soon as he can travel.
 In telling of the accident, Mr.Kars- tens said that Mir. Williams was fell ing some trees near the camp made by the party, and before cutting down a large one cut several smaller ones out of his way When the larger tree had been cut and was falling it kicked back and Williams, in jumping back, tripped over one of the smaller trees and was caught under the trunk of the large one, breaking his leg as above described
 There is practically no trail into the country where the accident happened This made it impossible to get the in jured man out to the Fairbanks trail over the hills. Having made him as comfortable as possible under the circumstances, and leaving MT Herschberger to look after him, MT Lawson made his way to the nearest place of communication for aid.
 eOATMAN LEAVING.
 About midnight last night an N. c. auto truck driven by Carl Selberg left for Shaw creek with two men who will carry polling boat up to the head of the stream after Mir Williams. Elam Harnish and Colin Hamilton will handle the boat. It is planned to bring the injured man down the Ia mana river to the end of the Cushman street road and on to town from there by auto. The trip will be a long, hard one, and much difficulty will be en- countered in going up Shaw creek, as it has many jams and piles of drift wood which will have to be removed before the camp will be reached.
