The United States arsenals are now
(■rammed with emergency orders ot
a gigantic nature which can have I
only one purpose in view. While
all warlike intentions are denied,
the energy with which work is be

that two thousand more workmen
are needed in the United States
arsenals. It is announced that the
services of women will be accepted
in the machine shops because of
their success in England.
The Navy Department has relaxed
not a single minute of the time
since relations were broken with
Germany in straining every inten
sive effort to reach the highest de
gree of i*.-eparedness for any emer
gency.

The movements of the United
States ships are however carefully
concealed at present but officers find
:hat there is no disposition to ex
tend leave or to grant any new fur
loughs to officers or men.
The military activities are on a
par with those of the navy depart
ment and the supply of equipment i
is being brought up to all the most
urgent present time needs.
These preparations are exciting at
tention in the press and the belief
is that something will happen very
soon.
A GREAT SUCCESS.
Over two hundred people thoroughly
enjoyed themselves at the Federated
dinner and delightful program last
evening. The dinner was a culi
nary triumph and a worthy prelude
to the feast of reason and flow of
soul that formed the more spiritual
pleasures of the program. Judge
Tucker delivered a splendid address
on the “Great Men of Old Virgina”
and his heart was in his subject.
The flag drill was cleverly executed
and the singing by Mrs. Poteet and
the violin solos by Miss Johnson
were very pleasurable.
XO GERMAN SEAMEN CONFIXED
WASHINGTON, D. C„ Feb. 16.—
Attorney General Gregory making a
special inyesitgation at the request
of President Wilson reports that no
German seamen or subjects are held
in prison unless accused of crime.
This is in response to the counter
charge made by Germany in the
matter of the Yarrowdale prisoners
that Germans were being held in the
United States of America.
This evening it is understood that
the German government signifies its
willingness to release the Yarrow
dale prisoners and to permit the
Belgian relief committee to leave
or continue their work.
AMERICAN* TROOPS LANDED.
HAVANA, Feb. 16.—It is stated
that American troops have been
landed at Santiago Da Cuba to pro
tect the American consulate. It is
also alleged that additional United
States marines have been landed in
Oriente province to be used in sup
pressing the revolt. The revolt is
officially denied by the American le
gation. There is not a word of truth
in it and it is being circulated at
the present time to embarras the
work of President Menocal and his
adminstration. The American troops
are ready to aid in restoring order
and to protect American property
and citizens.
RETRUNS FROM INMAHUCK.
After being absent almost a year
Antone Ring who was employed as
foreman by the Fairhaven Co. ar
rived in town last night. He came
overland all the way on skis and
had good weather all the way except
at Good Hope where a terrific storm
overtook him. Like many other
musliers he is full of praise for the
cabins which the road commissioner
erected on the trail last summer and
which are proving veritable havens
to mushers.
