BUNNELL SAYS MORE
 PEOPLE ARE NEEDED

SEATTLE, June 5. District Judge Charles E. Bunnell, of the Fourth judicial division of Alaska. with headquarters at Fairbanks, ar rived here today from the North, having made the trip out by way Of the Richardson trail.
 He reports that the paramount need of Alaska at the present time is increased population. The out look for the Interior country, he says. is not encouraging, for the reason that too many people are leaving.
 He says that he believes the Val deg trail will be opened in time for the benefit of tourists who desire to auto to the Interior from Valdez.

FAIRBANKS PLAYERS
 TO CLASH TOMORROW

The first regular ball game of the season will be played at Fairbanks tomorrow afternoon, at which time Captain Vic Brown will make ten tative selections for the regular team which will represent the upper town in the summers meetings with Ne mana and other Interior towns.
 There are not enough players in Fairbanks for two good teams, but it is believed that one strong ag- gregation will emerge from tomor- rows tryout.
 The members of the rife club also will practice tomorrow in prepara- tion for the forthcoming meeting with a Gibbon team. The club thus far has been able to secure only five riflemen, and an effort is now being made to pick sixth man to fill out the team.

GOTHAM ROBBERS
 MAKE GOOD HAUL

NEW YORK, June 5.-The big jewelry store of the Schonfield Manufacturing company was the scene of a diamond robbery today, the theft being one of the largest recorded in this city in many months. The stolen diamonds are valued at s1OO,OO0.
 The robbery was committed by two men, who entered the store on the pretence of making large pur, chases of jewels. When large wallet had been taken from the vault in order that the supposed purchasers might be shown a larger assortment of stones, one of the men threw pepper into the eyes of the proprietor, grabbed the wallet and escaped from the store before the other proprietor, who was in an other part of the store, could come to his partners assistance or stoF the robbers.
 The store is on Nassau street, 1T the heart of the business district.

The unsafe condition of the grade of the Government railroad between North Nenana and Fairbanks, which has been a matter of common dis cussion in Nenana and along the line since the early spring, was consid- cred at some length by-the Nenana Commercial club at the regular weekly meeting last night, the dis cussion eliminating in the adoption of a motion placing the club on record as cognizant of the danger to travels over the road, and urging that adequate steps be taken imme- diately by the Alaskan Engineering commission to make the grade safe for traffic.
 As is we'll known to nearly all Nenanaites, the grade between the Panama river and Happy station is composed very largely of muck, which was hastily thrown into place from borrow pits as the work was rushed to completion last fall, in order that communication might be lesta blished between Nenana and Fairbanks. There was very little iballasting done before cold weather set in, and the fact that the grade held together during the winter was due chiefly to frost conditions. With the coming of spring and warm weather, the rails began to
 sink into the soft grade rapidly, and are still sinking. In fact, the only
 way that the line could be kept open
 was by raising the track, where it threatened to disappear, and placing
 logs beneath the ties, similar to the manner in which the D line was con- structed across the swamps south of
 Nenana.
 The club found no fault with the
 manner in which the work was done
 last summer and fall. The members
 recognize that ballasting operations
 were not possible or even necessary

CLUB URGES NEED

to keep the line open during the winter, so long as the grade re- mained frozen. But with the com ing of spring, they believe, adequate steps should have been taken to in- sure uninterrupted and safe traffic,
 It was called to the attention of the club that several derailments already have occurred recently on the Nenana- Fairbanks line, and it was suggested that the escape of passengers thus far has beeu due more to good luck than to preventive steps on the part of the commission.
 The action of the club was prompted largely by the promise of unusually heavy traffic over the roa this summer, and especially during the approaching holiday season.

CLANS GATHERING
 FOR BIG CONTEST:
 RESULT UNKNOWN

CHICAGO, June 5.-Several ele- mcnts contribute to the support of the prediction that the forthcoming Republican national convention. which will begin its deliberations in this city next week, will develop into a regular oldtime convention battle, with an array of conflicting factions the equal of which has not been re corded in many years.
 It is generally admitted that many of the steadying influences are ab- sent. while there are many features present which make for confusion. considerable control appear impotent on this occasion, and the vast mum Der of uninstructed delegates adds materially to the confusion. There are apparently no band-wagons this year, and the several vehicles which are ready to be used as such appear not to have the necessary horse power to start them on their way. I There is just one thing about the convention that appears to be req ,sonably certain, and that is, that it will take more than one ballot to secure nomination. And there arc many who believe that it will take several days of balioting to reach q decision. ..- i The feeling has been repeatedly expressed by governors, chairmen of state delegations and others that the members of Congress and federal of ficials have too much to say rela- ! tive to convention plans and deci- sions. General Wood, however, ex- presses confidence in Chairman Will Hays and in his lack of sympathy for steam roller methods followed by ] the national committee. Wood and Lowden each received one district delegate from Georgia today, leav- ing three more contests to be de 1 cided by the committee. .-
 The weather is cold and cloudy today, but interest in the convention is warming rapidly. -:. .:~" .:...
 The convention will be attended by total of 9S2 delegates.

LEADERS EXPECT OLD7ZME BATTLE AT CHICAGO LAWMAKERS POSTPONE DELEGATE CONTEST DECISION
PRESIDENT TELLS TRAINMEN
 SESSION WAS DISAPPOINTING

WASHINGTON, D. C., June D. In a telegram addressed to officials of the railway brotherhoods, who had requested presidential interven- tion to prevent the adjournment of Congress until certain important leg islation had been acted upon, Presi- dent Wilson expressed keenest dis appointment and criticised the mem bers of Congress severely for their failure to take action on the high cost of living problem, the conclu- sion of peace, and important domes- tic legislation.
 "I have no reason whatever to hope that its continuance in ses- sion," the President said in his wire, would result in constructive mea- sures for the betterment of the eco- homie conditions to which you call attention. 1t must be evident to all that the dominating motive which actuated Congress was political eX- pediency rather than the lofty pur- pose to serve the public welfare"

SEATTLE, June 5.-The Wash ington correspondent Of -be Seattle Post-Intelligencer reports today that the house elections committee has announced the postpcnement of the Wickersnan,-G Grigsby election contest decision until the December session of Congress.
