GERMANS TO BE
 RELEASED SOON
pERSHING THINKS PRISONERS WILL BE RELEASED BY AM
 ERICA VERY SOON

PARIS, July 31.-P)-General John J. Pershing stated today that he firmly believes the German pris- oners still being held by the Ameri- cans will be released when three of the five great powers ratify the peace treaty. It is his opinion that it will not be necessary to await the rati- fication of the treaty by the United States senate before returning the prisoners to their native land.
 There are forty-eight thousand Ger mans being held by the Americans, all of them being prisoners of war, General Pershing stated that this is his personal opinion, only, concerning the probable release of the men as he has heard nothing definite from the war department.

WASHINGTON, July S1. lP, I organized trainmen of this country are dissptisned with the present wages paid them by tue railroad ad- ministration and fully expect some action to be taken in the matter by this fall President Lee of the Brotherhood of Railway Traimen an. nounced today that steps looking to- ward the enforcement of the train men's demand, will be taken unless the railroad administration takes measures by the first of october to increase the railroad workers wages or reduce the cost of living.
 He declares that the uainmen are receiving only enough wages to live on and not any too comfortably, at that The president of the union says that d reduction in the price of necessities will amount to the same thing as an increase in the railroad employees wages and they will be just as satisfied providing the de crease is large enough.
 President Lee empalhicaIly declares that a general state of unrest is now sweeping the country on account of the decreased purchasing power of a dollar and serious labor trouble in all trades is possible unless some decisive step is taken by the govern menJ.

END OF SEARCH
 FOR WINCHELL'S
 WIFE REPORTED
BODY OF MRS Al. WINCHELL IS RECOVERED AND HUSBAND'S PROMISE TO WIFE IS CARRIED OUT TOOK MONTHS TO LO- CATE REMAINS.
(Juneau Empire )


 After months of persistent effort to secure the body of his wife who was one of the passengers on the Princess Sophia at the time if was wrecked last October. Al Winchell's perseverance was rewarded when Jack Donovan. diver for the Deep Sea Salvage Company, secured Mrs WincheII's body yesterday. Ii was brot in last night with four other bodies as follows:
 Unknown woman, wearing a dark blue or green silk dress and short fur trimmed reddish colored coat and large maple leaf breast pin and rough gold wishbone pin.
 Chinaman, unidentified member of Princess Sophia crew.
 Charles Lockhardt Queen. Nancou- yer. carried a gold watch and $1O068
 Dan A Mcdonald of Flat Alaska. Member of Pioneers of Alaska. Car ried $42O in travellers checks and gold watch and chain
 Mrs Al WincheIl, Iditarod.
 The body of Mrs Winchell was found outside of room forty on the saloon deck, and on the opposite side of the ship from her stateroom It was reported last winter when divers were searching the Sophia for Mrs Winchell's body and the story was published, that her body had been located in her staterOom, room thirty five with that of another woman. It was also said that it was impossible 70 secure the body without further as sistanCe because of the manner in which the berths had IOOsened and damned against the door. Unable to open the door. the diver had broken the window. it was said. but was un- able to rescue Mrs Winchen's body Mr. Donovan said that it was evident that some mistake had been made be cause the window of room thirty-fVe was intact. and that there was no one in the room.
 MT Winchell arrived in Juneau from IditarOd as soon after the wreck of the Princess Sophia in which Mrs Winchell perished as he was able to get here. He waited for days while search was being made of the shores neighboring the wreck, hoping that one of the bodies recovered would be that of his wife. Finally when it was determined that the boat searched by divers, he hired them to board the ship and search for Mrs. WinChell. After days of unsuccessful work, MT. Winchell left for the south, satisfied that everything had been done that was possible at that time, but still anxious to get more help. He returned about two months ago with the representatives from the Deep Sea Salvage company, and since they have been working on the wreck, has ac- cOmpanied them on each trip to the sunken vessel hoping always that among the bodies they were recover ing, he would find that of Mrs. Winch ell.
