 BY COMP ANIES
Light and Power Company and Telephone Say No Disposal Planned

Denials that they are negotiating for the sale of local interests with the Foshay Company or any other interests were issued today by two local concerns. These were the Alaska Electric Light & Power Company and the Juneau and Douglas Telephone Company.
 In an interview given by J. P. Van Orsdale, engineer for the Fo- shay interests, to The Empire last Monday, it was claimed he was here for the purpose of negotiating for the purchase of these and other local properties.
 A statement given The Empire today by w. s. Pullen, Vice-Presi- dent and Manager of the light com- pany, said:
 "Our plant is not for sale. No one has been authorized to appraise our property"
 Mrs. Anna Webster, President of the telephone company, was equally emphatic in her denial of any pro- jected sale of that company's local holdings No offer has been made and none is contemplated, she said

BERLIN, June 12.-Germany has a silent nine" whose pictures mo- body ever receives and whose names are never publicly divulged. They are couriers of the foreign office who carry the sealed diplomatic pouches from the German capital to foreign lands.
 Most of their trips are across Eu- rope or Asia for they are seldom used for overseas journeys. General ly the captains of German ocean liners are employed on such mis- sions and their first objective on shore leave is to the German en- bassy or delegation.
 Sometimes, too, the foreign of flee does not care to take the risk of reducing special instructions to writing In such cases trusted attache of the foreign office is coached to memorize verbal orders or information. When he arrives at his destination he identifies him. self with a password and the am- bassador or minister personally takes down the instructions as they are recited to him.
 In the regular routine, however,

ssSILENT NINE' OF GERMANY GARRY
 SECRET MISSIVES TO MANY LANDS

the silent nine" are employed to convey confidential documents. AL most every month the code division of the foreign office maps out their railway schedules and it knows day by day where each man is, whether in Kovno, Moscow, Angora, Tirana, Rome, Madrid, or London. An outsider has little chance to recognize these men for what they are. They travel first class as they are not expected to risk loss of their baggage by sharing their railway compartments with others. This, however, is the only luxury in which they indulge. They stop in good, but not extravagant hotels, live unostentatiously, and never let their baggage out of sight.
 If courier deems it essential, he may request the foreign govern ment through whose country he is travelling, to surround him with special safety measures, such as de- tectives or police guards. This is privilege, however, of which the courier takes advantage only in rare instances, because his identity be- comes known to too many. Whether he carries a pistol not even the Foreign Office knows.

LYLE MAKING
 INITIAL TRIP
 TO TERRITORY
r O hibition Administrator Lyle Is Here on Trip
 of Investigation

On a general inspection and in- vestigation trip, Roy c, Lyle, Fed eral Prohibition Administrator for Oregon, Washington and Alaska, arrived here this morning from Seattle where he has his head quarters. He is accompanied by Mrs. Lyle and Inspector Leonard Began.
 He will cover a large portion of the Territory He plans to remain here until Saturday then will go to Skagway, thence via Whitehorse and Dawson down the Yukon River to Panama and up the Panama Riv- CT to Fairbanks. He will return to lthe coast over the Alaska Railroad and stop over here for short time on his way to Seattle.
 MT. Lyle's district embraces more territory than that contained by any other in the nation. It ex- tends from the California border to the North Pole, roughly speak ling. And thrust through its heart is 1000 miles of alien country that is wet which adds to its problems of enforcement.
 We feel that we have made def mite progress in the enforcement of Prohibition and that conditions are, generally speaking, showing material improvement all the time" MT. Lyle said. He did not claim that the work of the Prohibition unit was alone responsible for this gratifying showing. Rather, it has been made possible by the hearty a n d effective cooperation tn a t exists between it and other Fed eral and State agencies, mention ing the Coast Guard, Customs Serv- ice, Department of Justice, and State enforcement organizations. And last but not least there has been disposition of the public to more generally obesrve the law and aid in it's enforcement.
 This is MT. Lyle's first trip to
  Alaska. He has been in charge of Prohibition enforcement here for the past four years but has found it impossible to visit here before. He said he was much interested in Alaska, desired to study condi- tions at first hand and make per- sonal contact with its people. His visit is one of general inspection and investigation and has no par ticular significance, he added
 q have some knowledge of con- ditions gained through reports and meeting Alaskans in Seattle. Il came here with a very favorable impression of the Territory and I am sure this will be more than supported by my personal observa- tions on this visit,o he said. The trip so far he found to be most | enjoyable and his contacts with Alaskans very pleasant and de- 1 lightful.
