 BY TRICK OF ENEMIES

PEKING, Dec. 14-Kang Shih-to, formerly treasurer Of the Anfu club who since the recent downfall of that alleged pro-Japanese organiza- tion has been in hiding in the Rus sian legation and for whose arrest a reward of $10,000 was offered by the Chinese government, has just been the victim of a coup on the part of Chinese servants employed in the legation. They entered Kang's bedroom in the early hours of the morning, bound him, wrapped him in a bed-quilt and hoisted him over the legation wall. Accomplices delivered him into the hands of waiting police.

WILLOW CREEK OPERATORS
 WILL HAUL SUPPLIES SOON

Milo Kelly, prominent mining man of the Willow creek district, who was in Anchorage recently on a business trip, reported that the us ual heavy snowfall started several weeks ago and that mining men are now waiting for the snow to be- come packed so that they can begin hauling in supplies. The operators, Kelly says, are preparing to haul in an unusually large tonnage os supplies and machinery.
 Aside from George Anderson, who is operating the old Mabel property. very little work is being done in the district this winter. Don Rae is doing some winter development work on the Rae-Wallace claims.
 Kelly expects to spend the re- mainder of the winter in the States, leaving Anchorage next week.

GOVERNOR RIGGS TO QUIT
 HIS OFFICE ON MARCH 4th,

The Juneau Capital is authority for the statement that Governor Thos. Riggs, Jr. is to resign as chief executive of the territory on March 4. The paper states that the governor announced on November 3 that his resignation would be in the hands of the new President on the day of his inauguration.
 ''You may formally announce for me-" the governor is quoted as saying. "that my resignation as governor of Alaska will be in the hands of President Harding when he assumes his duties as President of the United States on March 4.
 II will submit my resignation to the President to become effective subject to his pleasure. This action is taken according to the usual custom in such cases"
 The Appointment of Governor Riggs became effective April 26, 1918, and his tenure was for four years, the term therefore expiring in April, 1922.
 Previous to his appointment as governor, Governor Riggs was a member of the Alaskan Engineer ing Commission, having charge of the railroad work in the Interior from the start of railroad building until he resigned to become chief executive of the territory. For a number of years previous to his appointment as member of the commission, the governor was a member of the International Bound ary Survey commission, leaving that work in 1914. :
 According to the Juneau paper the governor has not made his future plans known.

ZIMMERMAN SAYS ROAD IS
 BIG NEED OF KANTISHNA

J. F. Zimmerman, who returned to Nenana last night from stay of several months in the Kantishna district, where he located a promis- ing hard rock proposition, declares that there is no chance for the re- zion to develop without good roads. Only the highest grade ore can be shipped at present, he says, because of the excessive cost of transporta- tion, and the amount of high grade ore uncovered up to the present time is confined to two lodges. All other properties, on which very good ore has been found, and there are a considerable number of them, must await the coming of relief in the way of cheaper transportation.
 Mir. Zimmerman believes that a railroad is the real solution of the Kantishna problem but he says good wagon road, which will tra- verse the district, will make it pos sible to bring development to the point where the importance of the camp will be demonstrated beyond any doubt.
 The majority of the mining men of the Kantishna, Mir. Zimmerman says, do not approve of the selec- tion of the Riley creek route for the proposed trunk wagon road. It does not pass through the central portion of the district, he says, and is too much exposed during the winter months. He claims that the Riley creek route cannot possibly be kept open the year around.
 The Lignite route is favored by a majority of the oldtimers, he says, since that route serves the greatest area, passing directly through the mineralized zone.
 Considerable work is to be done on the Roosevelt road before the breakup, according to Mir. Zimmer- man. It is reported in the Kantishna that the Alaska Road commission has set aside S50,00O for use in putting the river road in first class condi- ton for summer, as we'll as winter use, and Ed. Bartlett is to start work immediately getting out mater ial for the many miles of corduroy that will be needed to build the road across the swamps which extend from Roosevelt toward the creeks.
 Mir. Zimmerman went to Fair banks this afternoon.

The designers Of mems clothes seem
to have recovered from their debauch
OF extreme ornamentation in the styl-
ing Of mems clothes. The reaction
has set in. Last Spring was the first
after the close OF the war-the first
opportunity that designers had had for
two. years to exercise their designing
originality unencumbered by the re-
strictions Of the Government Econ
omy Board which enforced DEGREES of
strict simplicity in fashioning. 1t was
natural when the ban had been lifted
and all restraint removed that the de-
signers should burst forth with re-
newed vigor to show the novelty ideas
which they had stored away during
the simplicity period.
This condition resulted in a riot of
fanciful conceptions - each designer
vieing with his brother to launch q
more extreme or unique conception
many times regardless of good taste
or the tendencies for American ideas
for distinctive refinement.
Young men wore these styles simp.
ly because they seemed to be the
vogue but accepted them with a no.

You'll see a gradual retirement Of
belted effects and not nearly so many
pleated and panel effects as were
shown in last Spring or last Fall lines.
These novelty details. however, will
appear again in the midsummer mod
els of outing suits so as to carry out
the sport features of midsummer
clothes, but for early Spring, the mod
cling will be more quiet and yet
withal dashing, distinctive, and of a
swagger sprightliness.
Vests are largely of the collarless,
s:ngle-breasted sort, with hardly ans
ornamentation-pleats and pocket but
tons are few.
Trousers continue to be narrow and
trim in cut and those without cuffs
are more popular than the turn-up
sort.
In the lounge suits, some pleats,
yokes and panels are shown, but for
the most part, what novelty details are
presented will be mostly indicated in
button treatments on pockets and
cuffs.
There are no particular lines of pat
terms prescribed as most fashionable
but small effects will be more noted
than the larger plaids. Narrow

stripes, club checks, small mixtures,
small overplaids and iridescents will
be most popular.
The fabrics cover a wide range OF
choice. Flannels are tremendously
popular in rich dark tones and some
light shades. These are for the most
part, in dark blues, dark greens, pur-
Piles, myrtles, various shades Of
browns, and gray, olive green's and
tans, with pin stripes, pencil stripes
and chalk stripes, also two-tone eff
fects.
Gabardines, too, are well placed in
the Spring modes and these are shown
in light color tones, and iridescents.
Tweeds, serges, cheviots and cassi-
meres are profusely shown in the
young mems suits and in the styles
for older men, close sheared worsted,
and hard finish worsteds predominant.
A great many double-breasted suits
are shown. The midsummer suits
will be largely in the sport models de-
scribed in a foregoing paragraph.

ticeabie reluctance, and, as the year
progressed, there was an obvious re-
cession to the less ornate designs.
Designers are quick to sense the
acceptance or rejection of their ideas
and mems styles cannot be forced to
the degree that is possible with wom-
ems modes, SO that this Spring you
will note a new aspect in the fashion
ing that is more in accord with refin-
ed American tastes.
OF course, younger men will always
lean toward some novelty ideas-such
as will evidence distinctiveness in
grooming in contrast to the regulation
styles of the older men and due rec
ognition is accorded to them in Spring
modes.
This, however, will be expressed
more in the cut of the garment, than
in decorative treatment. Lines Of
modelling that lend youthful trimness
and dash to the figure and emphasize
physical development of the athlete,
is the keynote of the Spring styles.
Full-chested coats with English
shoulders, high line waists, slightly
longer skirts to the coat and more
perceptible flare, are the outstanding
features of the young mems models.

POLICE NAB fWo MEN
MAKING $40 BILLS
Counterieiters Found at Work
in Cincinnati on $4,000 Worth
OF Spurious Notes

Cincinnati. Dec. 3.-Following In
formation. given by a woman three
policemen entered a room here and
arrested two men who were drying
the ink on more than $1,000 worth
of $40 bank notes which had been
printed from copper plates.
The counterfeiting outfit was
seized, and police say it is one OF
the most complete which has ever
been found in Cincinnati. The prison
ers were registered as Martin Ham
man, forty-seven, Cincinnati, and
Charles Schwilbe, twenty-five years
old, Vincennes, Ind.
The men had evidently made
many experiments, for several $40
notes which Hannah said were too
thick" were scattered on the ia
Bile. The paper used was of the
best grade, and an artificial tough
ness was added with a glue. Many
books on Photographic methods, en-
CRAVING chemicals and colorings
were found.
Police say Hannah was sentenced
to serve wife years in the Federal
Prison at Leavenworth, Kan, after
he had been convicted of counter
,feiting in Oklahoma. He was re-
Gently released Schwibe told the
police that he served nine months in
prison for .robbing a safe in an
Indiana town.
Mrs. William T. Llewellyn, propri
etress of the rooming house where
the arrests were made, said she be-
came suspicious of the men, who
rad rented the room two weeks ago.
When she overheard the men plan
ming to leave town at 3 o'clock to-
day she called the police on the teie-
phone and the arrests followed.
When the police arrived, Hannah
and Schwilbe were leaning over
table on which spurious $40 notes
were scattered. Numerous bottles
of acids, inks, Photographic plates,
copper etchings and stamps, delicate
instruments for measuring. chemi-
Gals and silk fibre covered the table.
The men told the police they had
been acquainted for some time.
Hannah said he came to Cincinnati
two weeks ago from Oklahoma, and
Schwilbe said he arrived here re-

SIMS FLAYC0 severely
eY SECRETARY Or NAVY
Rrraiancd for "Pro.5ritish ldiosyn
crasies" and Love Of Glitter and
Foreign Decorations"

Washington, ID. C.-Secretary Dan
iels launched a vigorous counter of
fensive against Rear Admiral Sims
when he appeared before the senate
investigating committee to answer
charges made by the officer against
the navy departments conduct OF the
war.
sweeping criticism Of Admiral Sims
occupied Mr.. Daniels time which he
devoted to reading a carefully pre-
pared statement. His attack came as
a preface to the Sims charges of fail.
ure and lack of cooperation and he
arraigned the admiral for 'pro-British
ldlosyncrasies," violating naval regula.
lions and criticism Of the ''self.sacrific.
ing and successful efforts" of his fel.
low officers.
So far as he dealt with Admiral
Sims charges that delay by the de-
partment had prolonged the war un.
necessarily, Secretary Daniels de.
clared the navy's war record stood
untouched today and for all time re.
CARELESS Of criticism"
AS for the American navy's part in
the great war" he said. "there are no
two opinions at home or abroad"
The most serious charges made ny
Admiral Sims are without foundation
n the others are unjustified. Upon
his assumption Of what he calls errors
and a small foundation of facts, Ad.
miral Sims has erected a towering
structure Of eXaggeration and misrep.
resentation."
The admiral, Mr.. Daniels said, de
sired to accept the king OF England's
offer that he become an honorary
member Of the British admiralty and
wrote complainly" when the depart
ment declined to allow him to accept.
Sims coveted foreign decorations and
apparently placed more value on them
than on honors his own government
could bestow, Mr.. Daniels declared,
and in public speeches minimized the
United States part in the war and
gave a maximum of credit to the Brit.
ish.
MI. Daniels said he had always re.
garded the admiral's desire for Brit
ish honors as a love of glitter and
foreign decorations" although he dis.
approved Of it.
Admiral Sims did not wholly meas.
ure up to expectations during the war.
Mr.. Daniels said. He enumerated six
points, including charges that the of
ficer placed too great stress on the i'm,
portance of protecting cargo vessels
and had failed to appreciate that the
protection of American soldiers en-
route to France was the navy's para
mount mission.

ACTION IS TAKEN TO
END FREIGHT JAM
sWEEPiNG ORDERS PREDICTED
WITHIN 4s HOURS.
PRIORITY FOR FOOD AND FUEL
Commerce Commission Plans to Rush
Necessities to Sections Where
Shortages are Imminent.

Washington, ID. C.-There were in
dications that the government would
act to break the nationwide freight
jam which for nearly a month has
been slowly clenching its grip on the
throat Of industry. Sweeping orders
by the interstate commerce commits
sion granting priority of shipment for
food, fuel and perishables were con-
fidently awaited by railroad officials.
They expected the commission also

The commission was understood TO

experts have been instructed to work
in conjunction with the American
Railroad association car service COM

data on the car situation with a view
to ap%portioning the supply where 1t
would do the most good.
Appeals OF the railroads for help
have brought to light new dangers
in the situation. Developments showed
that a decidedly menacing condition

and the resulting shortage threatens
to become serious unless the govern.

Railroad officials reiterated their
declaration to go call the way" with
the commission on any. program.
What they want, they asserted, is a
lifting of the burden until they can
get on their feet.
The volume OF freight Of all kinds
