The two launches owned by
George Moody and .lames G. Moore
of Fairbanks, which were engaged
in freighting on the Tolovana and
Kantishna rivers last summer, ar
rived at Xenana late yesterday eve
ning. The barges belonging to the
launches were left at the Minto

The launches and the barges were
in winter quarters in a sheltered
place near the mouth of the Tolo
vana river and were got out in
good shape shortly after the break
up on the Tanana.
George Moody and J. G. Moore,
Jr., brought the boats up from the
Tolovana. They left this morning
for Fairbanks, where the boats will
be given a thorough overhauling
preparatory to being put into com
mission in the freight and pass

this season.
Major E. R. McFarland, head of
the telephone and telegraph service J

Six men and two women, em

morning. But they will be held up
for five days at the Summit road
house to make sure that they do
not take any flu germs to the creek,
which hits thus far escaped the epi
demic.
August Hanot, who arrived from

the cold water process with great
• success.

PRESIDENT KILLED !
ON WAY TO COAST
(Continued from Pago 0»«.)
Villa-Zapata party as a military
power followed swiftly the heavy
defeats of Villa by General Alvaro
Obregon. Villa was forced to give (
| up Torreon and concentrate his
dwindling forces in Northern Chi
huahua and Eastern Sonora, making
occasional forays and raids which
culminated in the attack on Colum
bus, X. M., that resulted in the in
vasion of Mexican territory by Gen
eral Pershing.
In the diplomatic exchanges that
ensued between President Wilson
and Carranza, who had been otti
cially recognized as the head of
the de facto government by the
I United States in October, 1915, he
insisted on the respect by the Unit
led States of Mexico’s sovereignly
land the concession to his govern
iment of reciprocal rights of inva
sion. He maintained his position di -
spite the crisis caused by the clashes
between Mexican and American sol
diers at Parral and Carrizal, hut
Iwhen war seemed unavoidable, C ir
i ranza succeeded in stemming the
!tide by his proposal for the appoint
jment of a joint commission to ;et
tie the difficulties amicably. The
! proposal was accepted by President
Wilson and the deliberations of the
commission resulted in the wiih
jdrawal of the American army ami
'the restoration of friendly relations
I between the two countries.
i Iii the meantime, Carranza had
ealleii a constitutional congress,
’ which accepted most of the reforms
!|ie outlined. On March 11, 1917.
, he was elected president. More
than 1,500,000 votes were cast for
i
!him. He took the oath of oliice
^ May 1, 1917.
• In a message to the Mexican eon
Igress following' his inauguration as
preside;-*. Carranza declared Mexi
co’s “strict” neutrality. His note to
i
neutral nations, however, urging
them to declare embargoes again ;t
I
all the European belligerents, as a
means of ending the war, and the
j warmth of his language in congratu
lating Emperor William on the oc
Icasion of his last birthday, aroused
comment in the United States, as
’did also the publication of the Zim
| merman note, inviting Mexico to
j take “by conquest” the states of
Texas, Arizona and New Mexico, in
! payment for a declaration of war on
i
the United States acting in concert
i . , ,
I with Japan.
j General Carranza was married
and formerly lived in Saltillo. One
(of his daughters. Miss Virginia Car
iranza, became the wife of General
iCandido Aguilar.
