JOSEPH READY
TO CARRY OUT
TREATY TERMS

PARIS, Aug. 9.-Advices received
in this city from Vienna indicate
that it is the intention of Joseph,
head of the new Hungarian govern
ment, to execute the terms of the
peace treaty in a manner that will
convince the Allies of his sincerity
of purpose, and gain support for
the new Hungarian regime.
Kingship No Honor.
Prior to the selection of Archduke
Joseph TO head the new government,
Magyar patriots endeavored to in
duce former Emperor Charles to
return to the Hungarian throne as
king. This he is said to have re-
fused to do, on the ground that,
having once been king and emperor
both, he could not go down the
social scale by becoming merely a
king.

Republican House Leader Frank W.
Mondell, of Wyoming, announced to-
day that the members of Congress
are ready to act promptly on legis-

IN KANT|SHNA

Recent arrivals from the kantish-
ma district bring the report that Tom
Aitken is headed for the Kantishna
from the Kuskokwim and is expect
ed to arrive there tomorrow or early
next week. Definite information re-
garding the movements of Aiken
could not be be obtained, but it
seemed to be generally understood
among the people of the Kantishna
that he had left the Kuskokwim to
have look at the silver-lead prop
erty in which he has become inter
ested on the divide between Eureka
and Friday creeks, and upon which
development work is now in prog
ress.
Options on the property were Sc
cured some time ago by Aiken and
prospect shaft is now being sunk
on the ledge, which is said to be
showing richer values as the hole
deepens. The ledge also has widen
ed out considerably since the shaft
was started. 1t is believed that
Aiken is coming across country to
make personal survey of the work
and to take up his options if the
showing seems sufficiently encourag-
ing.
