ACCEPTS U. 8. PARTICIPATION.
(By the Associated Press.)

Paris, Nov. 2.-France accepts with
cordiality the contemplated collabor-
alton of the United States in con.
ference Of experts to study Ger.
many's capacity to pay reparations.
She demands, however, that it should
be clearly understood that the in
qui,y should be solely on ."the pres
ent capacity Of Germany and that
it should respect all the rights Of
the reparation commission held un-
der the treaty of Versailles.
This was the substance it was
learned today. Of the reply France
has made to the British note asking
her to join Italy and Belgium in 4
collective invitation to the United
States to join in the proposed con-
ference. The reply was handed to
the British embassy yesterday. It's
text was not made public.

Robert Mathieson, a2 l-2 year old son of Alheat MathiesOn. living at Charcoal Point, near Ketchikan, recently fell into a bucket of boil. ing water that his mother had placed upon the floor. and was nearly scalded to death.
 Colonel Mears is authority for the statement that two steamers will ply on the Yukon river between Nenana, St. Michaels and other ports this summer, opening large afea in connection with the gSv- ernment railway. Service will be- gin about May is.
 Alfred H. Brooks of the geolog- ical survey says in his report that there is about $35O,OO0,OOO in pla- ger gold in Alaska and that placer mining in the territory is yet in its infancy. About 560 Alaska placer mines employing 1900 men were operated in 1922, producing gold valued at $4,10O,00O. He be- lieves the production in 1923 will be larger
 The Dawson News says there is one Yukon village at Musroikuk, 150 miles north of Fort Yvkon, where the Indians still celebrateI the birthday of Queen Victoria, not realizing that she has passed be- yond. They are residents of the United States, these Indians who pray for dead British queen. The late Archdeacon Stuck, it is said, in one of his rare visits tried to them that changed boun- daries had made it necessary for them to pray for the executive head of the United States, but without avail,

 Furs shipped from Alaska to the States, exclusive of seal skins, be. tween December 1. 1921. and Mo- vember 30, 1922, were valued at $l,8OO,5O3.45 according to a state ment just issued by the Bureau of Biological survey. During the same period seal skins shipped were val ued at approximately $1,OOO,OOO.
 One of the largest of recent real estate transfers in Seward occurred recently when Leo Margules pur- chased the interest of E. L. Whit temore in the property which they have heretofore held jointly. The property includes the Northern Billiard Hall, the Overland Hotel and the Seward Grill. Mir. Whit temore has leased the Northern property from his former partner and will continue the business.
 A large pack of wolves has re- gently congregated in the vicinity of Ketchikan. Walter Anderson, an employe of the Citizens Light, Power and Water Company, was at one time completely surrounded by these animals about 200 yards off the Charcoal Point road oppo- site the Smiley cannery. They cir eled around him Indian fashion, closing in all the time, until he de- cided that a battle with wolves when armed with a Stilson wrench can be done better in the movies than at Ketchikan, so he adjourned the meeting and went into town | for rifle.

ATHLETIC CLUB DANCE

AS noted in The Times several days
ago, the regular Saturday night dance
Of the Cordova Athletic Club was
postponed for the reason that there
is considerable sickness in town, in
Guiding numerous convalescing cases
Of flu, and it was considered better
to hold the dance the following Mon
day evening, April g. Since this
dance was also intended as one of
welcome for the cannery people re-
turning on the Northwestern, many of
whom are well known in Cordova, the
Athletic Club has decided that unless
the Northwestern gets in before s
o'clock Monday evening, the dance
will be held over till the following
evening. On this occasion the people
Of the town will have a chance to
greet the new arrivals and enjoy one
of the best dances of the season. 1t
is hoped, therefore, that everyone will
make it point to attend.

RADIO COMPASS SIGNALS TAKEN IN REVERSE OF WHAT THEY
 SHOWED

SAN DIEGO, September 20-Radio compass signals from Point Arguello showing the destroyer squadron stood far to the north of the point, appeared unreasonable to navigators and they plotted course on exact reverse, and crashed into the rocks we'll north of the point as the result, Lieut. Lau- renee F. Blodgett. navigating officer on the Delphy told the naval court of inquiry.
 One bearing was received from the Point about eight-fifteen that night, he said, and showed the squadron south of Point Arguello, which agreed with his own figures, so when the succeed ing direction signals showed them to be north, they concluded the bearings were exactly reversed from what they should be.

 Mr. Snodgrass is very enthusiastic over the new experiment, believing they can be crossed with cattle and a superior and hardier stock produc- ed. He declares that Canadian exper- imenters have succeeded in raising several calves the past season, by crossing with Galloways, the product being a hardy, shaggy animal, able to survive in any climate, and make their own living.
 The animals being taken in by MT, Snodgrass were small, weighing about 600 pounds, with small horns, and a tail like a horse.
