TrieSte.-A state of war between
the Kingdom Of Italy and the regency
OF Quarnero" at Fiume began at mid
night bur up to few minutes before
that time there was no visible evidence
that actual violence impended. The
blockade Of Fiume was continuing. and
the only indications of trouble were
the fierce pronouncements of Captain
Gabrielle D'Annunzio against General
CaviSia and the regular Italian troops
which were surrounding the city.
Communication between Fiume and
the islands Of Arde and Veglia, was
cut by an italian patrol in the Gulf of
Quarncro, and supplies cannot be TAX
en- to them from the city. Thus the
poet soldiers occupational forces there
appear to be isolated.
Railroad traffic has been functioning
| but the usual restrictions were en-
forced on the line of demarcation be-
tween Fiume and the occupation zone
outside, passage Of the DAnnunziun
lesionnaires through lines being for
hidden.
No Passage Through Lines.
Emissaries of D'Annunzio are going
to and fro exchanging his point Of
view, but shortly before midnight
there were no extraordinary signs that
the threat Of war would take more
concrete form. General Caviglia has
been able to tighten the conditions
under which D'Annunzi6's forces are
held in Fiume, and all ships under the
command of the poet soldier remain in
the harbor, not venturing beyond the
| breakwater.
Fiume seemed tranquil with the ex-
ceptlon of unimportant raids by sub
marine chasers. There was not the
slightest movement Of the population,
which was maintaining an Indifferent
attitude toward the legionaries who
were engrossed in the "work of de-
| fense."
A member of D'Annunzio's staff
stated that D'Annunzio wished recog-
milton from parliament for his services
IN occupying Fiume, and that he
would become conciliatory in that
event.
mo one can deny" he continued,
that D'Annunzio saved Fiume, but no
mention has been made of his work in
recent parliamentary ORDERS"

ing Fiume has been increased and a
very strict watch was being kept on
all approaches to the city.

LANDING PLACE FOR PLANES IS
 BEING SOUGHT
Commercial Club Committee Visits Bar = Seaplanes
 More Practical, Declared

A landing place for aeroplanes in
 or near Juneau is wanted by army !, aviators who intend to make trip
 to Alaska in the spring and com
 mittee consisting of Allen Shattuck, Postmaster z. M Bradford, Charles Goldstein, B. D. Stewart and W. s. i. Pullen made a trip of investigation yesterday to look at sites.
 $ They motored out the Salmon creek road and examined "the mead ows" and marsh flats and also the stidelands. P R. Bradley and Jack Littuepage, of Treadwell, today were to make an examination of the ground between Treadwell and Mayfiower Island.
 Request for information regarding land places comes from Lieut.. Ray nor Carey, of the Academy of Ap- piled science of Aeronautics of Chi scago, H., which is cooperating with the army aviators. Letters have been received from him by the Postmaster sand theJuneau Commercial Club. In his letter Lieut. Carey says army 4aviators believe 1t entirely feasible
The Alaska daily empire., 1920-02-20

to fly from the United States to Alaska with land planes along the coast, without making landings in any other territory. He says it is planned to star early in the spring.
 Another letter says that 600 square yards, comparatively level, is needed.
 Members of the committee have come to no final decision, although they believe that seaplanes, which can land in the water, will prove more practical for an air route to this place However, if possible they also want 10 provide a landing place for aeroplanes. The tideflats just beyond the bar, which are covered only twice year by the very highest tides. might possibly do, and it has been pointed out that there may be found enough level ground, with some fix ing, on the Mendenhall river gravel flats.
 The place near Treadwell, consist ing of newmade ground, would be the ideal place, of course, if there is enough space for a plane to land, as it is near town. The letters re. ceived desire map and details of the direction of the wind, whether there is cable office, how many steamers touch port and lot of other information.

 "The last night I was out in the woods the wolves made a trail around me and within 40 feet of the fire but l never lost my head The next morning I started back over the same route came, and had to ford the creek six times before 1 got on the right trail to Katalla
 ''I met two of the searching party. A. J. Davis and Jerry Flynn who had started out to look for me. They had pick and shovel and sleigh, ex- pecting to find my body, which they intended to bury We returned to the Waldren cabin, and after enjoy ng a cup of hot coffee, mushed back to Chilkat and there took the launch for Katalla"

REAR ADMIRAL
 PEARY IS DEAD
 IN WASHINGTON
Continued from Page One)

Bay. He went to Bowdoin College, won fame there as a runner and jumper, and stood in the honor col umn of scholarship. It was little later that he had gone to Washing ton to work ~as a draughtsman in the Coast and Geodetic Survey of fices. He spent his spare time studying civil engineering and passed in that branch into the na- val service. He became Lieutenant Peary, U. s. N.
 His first assignment was to the tropics He was d leader of the surveying for the Nicaraguan canal route. It was when he returned to Washington that he fell upon the book about Greenland, and there after virtually consecrated himself to polar exploration.
 Obtaining leave from the naval service, he led an expedition into Greenland, to determine the extent of this mysterious land. He deter mined it's insularity, discovered and named many Arctic points which to- day are familiar names-such as independence Bay, Melville Land, and Heilprin Land, and in one of his later voyages he discovered the famous meteorites which he brought back to civilization. One of them, weighing 80 tons, is the wonder of visitors to the MuSeUm of Natural History of New York.

Lectured to Raise Funds

Lectured to Raise Funds
 Between voyages Peary resorted to the lecture platform to raise funds for further exploration. In one instance he delivered 168 lec- lures in 96 days, raising $13 ,0O0.
 On his sixth voyage, with the Pole in view, he had to give up be- cause both of his feet became froz- en. Although he had reached the most northerly land in the world naming it Cape Morris K. Jessup at the tip of Greenland-and had also attained Lat. SALT the northern most record in the Western world, Ne was still in great despair. He wrote in his diary:
 The game is off. My dream of
 ighteen years is ended. I have made the best fight l knew. l be- lieve it was a good one. But l cannot accomplish the impossible" |"
 By the time Peary reached civili- ration, however, he had decided up- on still another trip. With the specially designed ship Roosevelt, Peary drove further into the frozen ocean than navigator had ever been before. On foot he advanced until his record for this seventh trip stood at 866, where starvation and cold again checked the party.
 The explorer was 52 years old when in July 1908 he set out on his eighth and successful invasion of the Polar region.
 Captain Bartlett, the veteran for Peary, shouted to Col Roosevelt as the ship was leaving it's wharf at New York: It's the Pole or bust this time, MT. Presi- dent"
 The method of attacking the Pole was in five attachments, pushing north in the manner of a telescope. At the 88th. parallel Peary parted with Captain Bartlett, in charge of the 4th detachment, and he with one member of his crew and four Eskimos made the final rush. They covered the 135 miles in five days.
 Was Thirty Hours at Pole
 Thirty hours from April 6 to 2 were spent at and around the Pole "a great tract of frozen sea-none Of the land which 'Dr. Cook report ed. The weather was cloudless and flawless. The temperature ranged from 33 below to 12 below. When open places permitted soundings, 5000 feet of wire, which was all that Peary had, failed to reach the bottom.
 When he got back to civilization Peary was surprised to find such a fierce controversy raging over him and his rival, Dr. Cook, but he cas- fly established his claim before scien- tific bodies throughout the world. He was raised to the rank of Rear Admiral of the United States Navy and retired on pay; Congress voted him it's thanks in a special act, and gold medals, decorations and honors of many kinds were showered upon him.
 A scientific and popular narra- tive of his success he wove into a book called The North Pole" while his other expeditions are described in detail in his "Northward Over the Great Ice" and Nearest the Pole
 Peary's closing years were spent in well-earned rest, living for a large part of the time with his fam fly of three-wife, daughter and son-on Eagle Island, off the coast from Portland, Me. Mrs. Peary was formerly Josephine Diebitsch. of Washington, D. C., marrying the explorer in 1888. She frequently accompanied her husband on his northward journeys, and one one of these trips Marie Ahnighito Peary was born and bears the distinction

false,' said Harry Diehl, a member of the fair price committee, yesterday.
 According to Mir. Diehl, it has been rumored fin Phoenix for the past month that the department of justice had taken action upon recommendations of the fair price committee and that a number of merchants had been assessed fines ranging from $50 to s1,5O0.
 As a matter of fact. according to MT. Diehi, who as has been stated, is a member of the fair price committee. there has been no evidence uncovered in Phoenix of profiteering. A depart ment of justice operative was in Phoenix for some time and his investi- gations showed that merchandise here is being sold at margin which is within a legitimate amount.

They have been telling . rather nasty story" continued Mir. Diehl, which, although it has been doing no harm. becomes tiresor1c. They say that an agent of the department of justice has been going the rounds pricing goods and then asking to see the invoice. flashing his star to back up his demands for a look at it. AS soon as he had compared the invoice with the price asked for the merchan- disc. and found that it was too high. the merchant is supposed to have been put under arrest and fined varying amounts. The stories are too ridieu- lous to be believed and it is only in fairness to those whose names have been connected with them that we are asking that publicity be given the matter"
