SUBMARINES
ADAPTED TO
ARCTIC USE
SAN FRANCISCO April 22 (by As
sociated Press).—In the way of mod
ern methods of transportation as a
means of reaching the North Pole, the
submarine comes first in the estima
tion of Vilhjalmur Stefansson, the
Arctic explorer. Next comes the
dirigible balloon, and finally the air
plane.
“The submarine appears to me to
be a perfectly practical way of reach
ing the pole as well as a comfortable
way for one could carry all the neces
sary comforts,"said Mr. Stefansson on
his recent visit here while discussing
Arctic exploration with friends. “I
seldom have seen a stretch of ice ex
tending more than thirty miles with
out coming to open water. Under the
circumstances there never would be
any difficulty in the matter of getting
to the surface. Also the navigator
would be assured of calm water when
he came up in these ice hemmed bits
of water.
“The submarine already has been
used for getting to ice bound ports by
passing under the ice. They may be
provided with wheels so as to go
along the channel bottom. A large
number wil only weight about 600
pounds on the wheels when sub
mersed in this manner. In construct
ing an under ice submarine the peris
cope and much of the above deck con
struction would be done away with
and in place of it would be a deck
coming to a ridge similar to a roof
which would cut through thin ice
when coming to the surface. Ocean
ice is mushy and I have seen a whale
come up through a thickness of six or
seven inches of ice.”

division of the general land office, re

been on business of settling up of the
trusteeship of the Wrangell townsite.
He has issued deds for all the lots
there with only one or two exceptions.

ALL QUOTATIONS OFF
ON KANSAS GOATS
- •
KANSAS CITY, April 21 (by Asso
ciated Press).-—Daily telegraphic quo
tations on goats have been ordered
from here bj^ the government, owing
to the greatly increased importance
o( this branch of the livestock in
dustry. It is estimated that the Kan
sas City market, the largest in Am
erica and perhaps the largest in the
world, will be received 3,000 goats
daily by May 1.
The goat tastes very much the
same as mutton, dealers said in dis
cussing disposition of goats sold on
this market.
“A goat’s reward for being fat and
healthy is to become mutton, and a
kid that goes to a packing house
might be consoled with the knowledge
that his epitaph on the menu will read
‘lamb,’ ” said one big dealer.
He added that packers are required
by the government to distinguish be
tween sheep and goats in transaction
with dressed meat retailers, but that
the retailers are not required to so
inform consumers. '
“The increasing magnitude of the
goat market may be somewhat at
tributable to the fact that goats are
quoted usually at $2 to $2.50 a hun
dred under sheep,” the dealer said.
Goats are coming to market here
from Texas, New Mexico and Arizona.
Those not conditioned for slaughter
are sold as feeders to farmers of
Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska and Illinois,
where they aid in clearing brush from
pasture land.
MEXICANS TRIED TO
EMULATE THE HUNS
MEXICO CITY, April 22 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Investigation is being
made by the war department of
charges that Lieutenant Colonel Cris
tobal Limon, commanding the gar
rison at Zamora, Michoacan, ordered
the execution of Juan Jose Paque,
mayor of the village of Sacan, and fif
teen of his fellow citizens. After the
alleged execution, which took place
about five miles from Zamora, the
bodies of the victims were hanged to
trees, being discovered several days
later by relatives and removed. The
sixteen were said to have been taken
prisoners by a detachment of troops
from Zamora when they protested
against the troops carrying off a num
ber of cattle.
