Mr. Porter will prove an ardant
booster for Alaska on his return to
Chicago, particularly regarding the
weather conditions. Mr. Porter was
a caller at The Times office yesterday,
and stated that when he left Chicago
he was declared by his friends to be
crazy to brave the rigors of the North
in winter. When he left Chicago the
thermometer stood 14 degrees below
zero, and before that had registered
21 degrees below. To make a com
parison between the winters of Chica

Porter studied the thermometer close

caught the mercury was 13 above zero.

regarding Alaska weather.
CHILIAN TO WESTWARD
STABS COUNTRYMAN
Enrique Nantuy, a Chilian, residing
at Kenai. has been arrested, charged
with stabbing E. Caveillo. a fellow
countryman. In the course of one
of their fights a few days ago, the
man who is now a prisoner 1b said
to have stabbed Caveillo in the side
with a butcher knife. Caveillo is
declared not to have been seriously
injured. Natuy, in speaking of the
affair, seemed to think there was too
much fuss made about the little un
pleasantness altogether.
“Ah!” he said deprecatingly, "knife
in my country all same fist in your
country. You sabe?” Indeed, judging
from his viewpoint, it was ridiculous
to have taken any notice of so triv
ial a matter as inserting a butcher
knife in a compatriot’s anatomy.

TDK HAOFK, Feb. 18—The government of Netherlands
has refused the request of ship owners to provide warships to
convoy Dutch merchant vessels through the marine area pre
scribed by Germany. As a reason for its refusal to comply
with the request of the ship owners, the government states that
such an escort, while it might prevent the danger to Dutch ves
sels, would greatly enhance the risks of vesels of other neutral
vessels bound to and from Dutch ports which were unescorted.

DECLINE AS RESULT OF BLOCKADE
NEW N t) 1 ?K, I'eb. 18—Notwithstanding tho German block
ade of French and British coasts is now in operation, the big
liners operating between here and the ports of England and
France will continue their sailings as usual. A noticeable re
sult ot the German declaration of blockade is that the passenger
lists and cargoes of the liners have suddenly fallen off, both pas
sengers and shippers preferring to await the result of the block
ading movement before entrusting themselves or their goods
to the dangers of the submarine attack.
