COONEy REPORTS FROM COAST END;
 MADE GOOD TIME

Trail conditions on the Broad Pass route, which were somewhat disturbed by recent storms, are get ting back to normal rapidly, ac- cording to Mike Cooney, pioneer stageman, who reports from Indian river that he was only five days reaching that point from the Ne mana end of steel, with a heavy load of freight, He says he found the trail in good condition and ex- perienced no difficulty in maintain ing his regular schedule of six days between ends of steel. He wired from Indian river and expected to reach Talkeetna the following night.
 MT. Cooney could not say, at the time of wiring, whether or not any
 
 Talkeetna, but he announced that he would start back, in any case, tomorrow morning, and should reach the end of steel on this end about next Tuesday.
 There has been considerable travel over the Broad Pass trail lately and. with an abatement of stormy weath~ CT, it should not take long to pound the snow into good mushing condi- tion, which probably accounts for the fact that Cooney had no diff culty in making good time with his dog team. The trail should con tinue to improve throughout the re- mainder of the season

FLU |S GENERAL
 AMONG SOLDIERS,
 BUT DEATHS FEW

WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 22.- Surgeon General Rupert Blue, of the public health service, has issued a statement in which he admits that influenza is epidemic among United States soldiers in various sections of the country and among American troops abroad. He claims, however, that the disease is of a mild type and nothing to be alarmed about. The death rate, he says, is very low.
 Many cases are reported to have developed among the forces sta toned at Camp Grant, at Love field, and at Fort Sheridan.
 The recurrence of the epidemic, Blue states, was not unexpected, and thus far the medical branch of the army has experienced little difficulty in coping with the situation, hav- ing made preparations in advance for the care of such cases as might develop. es~

proceedings and pointed out that
these proceedings were begun at a
date later than that covered by the
alleged conspiracy. Mr.. Ames also
said that the attorney general has the
right to elect whether the govern
ment would prosecute its cases as
civil or criminal matters, and that
having chosen civil proceeding in
the strike Mr.. Palmer did not believe
8 fair TO proceed criminally after hav-
ing obtained the miners compliance
with the court order. Mr.. Ames al
so said the department mad co-operat-
ed intellectually in the prosecution
and had not interfered in any way
with the action of the governments

spiracy cases.
Testimony also was given during
the hearing that no agreement to linn

been made in Judge Anderson's pres

presented statements attributed 40

Judge Anderson at Indianapolis today
with respect to the courts INJURY in

partment's representative, would
read into the court record all of the
instructions in question" Whether
the court had been advised ofsthis
plan was unknown at the department,
hut pending developments in the con-
troversy officials were silent.
The statement was reiterated at

ENORMOUS WASTE
CT FUE6S Charged
Evidence Of Graft Found In
Purchases BY Ship
ping Board.

Washingto Nov. 10-Charges that
the activities of the Shipping Board
have resulted in an enormous waste
of Government funds are contained
in a report submitted to the House
Committee on Shipping Board by two
former employees Of the board, A. M.
Fisher and ], F. Richardson, who for
more than a year have conducted an
investigation for the committee.
The report, released for publica-
ton today by the committee. of which
Representative Walsh. Republican,
Massachusetts,, is chairman, states
that the investigators found evidence
of graft in the purchase of supplies
for repairing Government-owned
ships, of corruption on the part of
officials and employees of the Ship
ping Board Emergency Fleet Corpora
ton, and of the use Of political and
other influence in the negotiating of
contracts for construction and allcca-
tion of vessels
The Investigators grouped their OBJ
servaiiops under seven general heads,
representing various phases of the
Shipping Boards activities. They de-
clared that improperly drawn con-
tracts had cost the Government
large sum; that some divisions of
the board had failed to cooperate eff
ficiently and that others had failed
completely to function properly.
The report charged that payrolls
had been padded by some of the
firms which repaired Government
owned vessels, and that there had
been a heavy loss to the Government
as a result of wholesale thefts of
supplies and equipment from ships.
The investigators also reported to the
committee that companies operating
Government vessels had in some in
stances owned stock in companies
which furnished supplies to the ships
at prices ranging as high as so per
ent above wholesale costs.
Discussing the ALLEGATION of ships
the report states that investigation
of companies or applicants for assign
ed or allocated tonnage seems to be
more or less haphazard with the
United States Shipping Board The
investigators say that the diyision
of assignment and ALLEGATION attempt
cd TO cooperate With the Department
of Investigation. but that just about
"the time proper cooperation be-
tween these two departments had
been established the Department OF
Investigation was SO disturbed by
enange in its directing heads & "a its

'JN0. GILLIAN WILL
CONTEST ELECTION
Questions Validity Of r. Y.
Thomas Majority In
Third.

The congressional election in the
Third Kentucky District will be con-
tested by John II. Gillian, of Scotts-
vile, Republican candidate, who on
the face of the available returns, was
defeated by R. Y. Thomas, Democratic
candidate for reelection, by 5S1
votes. This decision was reached at
conference of Republican leaders
in Louisville, last night.
Mr. Gillian was in Louisville yes
terday, but during his visit to Re-
publican state headquarters did not
discuss the political situation insofar
as it concerned his race.
There have been persistent rumors
coming out of the Third District for
some days to the effect that ,Gilliam's
friends had evidence upon which to
base contest and that it was their
intention to bring about such move
II it was possible.
One of the claims. made is that in
one Republican precinct in Todd
County III ballots, which had beo>
stamped under the Log Cabin by
many voters, later had been thrown
out as 'mutilated." These ballots,
it is alleged, not only bore the stamp
under the Cabin as when they were
deposited in the ballot box, but al
so bore marks in various colored
inks under other party emblems.
1t is further charged by Gilliam's
friends that in one precinct in Logan
County the Democratic majority on
the face of the returns is greater than
the total vote of both sexes in that
precinct.
