FOREIGN LEGION
IN THICK OF
LONDON June 28—The French
Foreign Legion, In which a number of
Americans ure serving, has been doing
brilliant work in the fighting north of
Arras. The casualltles In the Legion
have been very heavy, and a letter re
| celved here from a wounded member
slates that In his company of 260 men
only 60 nre left. The letter says:
"The Legion had the honor of being
chosen to be the first out of the
trenches and to take the German lines
with the bayonet. This was at a point
between Souchez and Carency. Pre
vious to the attack, there was a terri
ble bombardment of the German posl
: tion.
“French guns of all calibres were
firing together for two hours without
Interruption. It was like an earth
quake. Suddenly, punctually at ten
o'clock in the morning, the firing
ceased, and the 'Charge' was sounded.
"We were out of the trenches like
lightning. It was wonderful. We
were like a storm. In ten minutes we
had won the first line of German
trenches. But there was no stopping
us. Wo kept it up hammer and tongs
for nn hour and a half, taking three
lines of the enemy's trenches and
driving the enemy In front of us.
“By this time all the officers of our
company were either killed or
wounded, so a sergeant took command
and we entrenched ourselves as best
we could, but finally had to retire
about a hundred yards.
"Here I got two wounds. Four in
every five of our men were either
killed or wounded In that fierce
charge."

ZAPATA VICTORY
WASHINGTON, D. C., Juno 2S.—
Further advices received at the State
Department today from Its agents in
Mexico, do not shed much light on the
situutlon there, or forecnst what effect
the recent defeat of Carranza in his
effort to capture Mexico City, •will have
upon the politics of that country. The
Information received this morning con
firms the first dispatches announcing
the victory of Zapata over the Consti
tutionalist forces led by General Gon
zales. The Carranzistas are in full
retreat, and the Zapata forces are
pressing their advantage. The ndvance
upon the Mexican capital has been a
total failure.

ANOTHER MEMORIAL !
GETS THE AXE
Replying to the recently received
memorial by which the Legislature
requested a radio station for Candle.
Alaska, Secretary of War Llndley M.
Garrison writes.
"It would seem that to place a gov
ernment station at Candle would be In
direct competition with private enter
prise already providing adequate
facilities. This is contrary to the
policy of the War Department."
In the letter, which was received
lately by the office of the Territorial
Secretary, Secretary of War Garrison
states that investigation lias brought
to light the fact that there Is a pri
vate telephone line connecting Candle
witli the city of Nome and which
passes through only two intermediate
stations, and also that this line gives
a fairly reliable service. The letter
further justifies the refusal of the
Department to consider a station at
Candle on the ground that in any
event there is only a very small
amount of business for a station at
Candle. The memorial was proposed
by Representative W. W. Getchell, of
Nome.
1 saw a little boy walking home
from the ball game yesterday after
noon. His feet were dragging wearily
and he wore an expression of extreme
fatigue.
"What's the matter, little man? You
look awfully tired after merely watch
ing a baseball game,” 1 satd.
“Huh, I didn't get no time to watch
no game,” he said. “Why, I chased
almost half of the wild throws."

With the recent development In
Southwestern Alaska the demand for
gasoline nnd other petroleum prod
ucts has become so great that the
Amalgamated Oil Co., operating at
Katalla, Alaska, Is contemplating an
Increase In the size of Its refining
plant. Meantime several new wells
are being sunk, among them being one
owned by the Alaska Coal & Oil De
velopment Company, which hag at
tained a depth of 900 feet, and the
only well In the district that has pene
trated the limestone. This is the gist
of a statement made by Oeorge T.
Itarrett, n pioneer Alaskan, who first
settled at Katalla In 1880. "The
Amalgamated plant.” said Barrett, ”is
now refining about 36 barrels of ms
tillate and gasoline a day, bui mis is
not sufficient to supply the local de
mand. All of the product is sold in
Southwestern Alaska, where the
freight charges from Seattle and Cali
fornia give the home product a de
cided advantage. Much of it is used
by the fishing vessels.” Barrett ex
pressed the opinion that development
of the Alaskan oil fields have been
held back because many of the claim
owners feared they would share the
fate of the coal claimants if they
brought in paying wells. Many wells
had the caps screwed on nfter oil hnd
been struck.—Alaska & Northwest

U. S. INSISTS ON
OPEN DOOR IN
CHINA :
PEKIN, June 28.—The United States
has sent a warning to both Japan and
China, notifying both countries that
the American government would not
recognize, or abide by, any agreement
between China and Japan, that would
impair the rights of the United States
to havje a free hand In seeking trade
with China, or would endanger the
open door policy of the Chinese gov
ernment.
The two notes sent from Washing
ton to China and Japan, were Identical
nnd were delivered simultaneously to
the foreign offices of those countries
sometime around May 15, one week
after China had acceded to the de
mands made upon her by Japan. For
some reason the matter has Just be
come public, and the three govern
ments concerned have all preserved
an extraordinary silence In the
premises.
