Anchorage after the campaign, ac
i cording to the Ketchikan Progressive,
and were informed of the victory won
by the democratic nominee. Mr. Sul
zer said he was plta3ed with the re
sult and with the support he had ;
received throughout the territory
which had exceeded is most sangu'ne. ,
expectations with the exception oi
Ketchikan and Nome where he had
been led to believe he would get a
large majority of votes. “Nome, he
said, had received him gvith open
arms and had given him all the as
surances of a big support,, but for
some reason or other, at the last tno- '
merit the voters failed him.” In Ketch
ikan his home town where he is pssi
tlve he has not a single enemy he
was doubly surprised by the big
Wicker3ham plurality. He thought he
had reasons for expecting better than
he got. But at any rate he is grate
ful to all who voted for him and will
try to help Ketchikan In every way
he can.

GERARD ACKNOWLEDGES
HE USED EXPRESSIONS
ATTRIBUTED TO HIM
_
»
• ternational Newt Service.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 13—In re
ponse to cabled Instructions from the
:nte department Ambasador Got
ud has sent on by wireless the exact
words'he used at a banquet recently j
in Berlin.
Secretary Lansing says that Ger
ards message show3 that his words
in that occasion practically corre
■p.ind to the words credited to hin.
in the press dlsaptches.
He declared under the stimulus of
the banquet*table that he relations be
ween Germany and America had not
been 30 cordial slnec the commence
metn of the war.
The state department also cabled to
dm the query ns to what he mear.i
by these words. His reply to this
has not yet been given out but it Is
Known that it is far from satisfactory.
Indeed, thc«e are reasons for bellev
ng that the ambassador will at least
be subject to a reprimand from the
state depaitment even if no more
serious consequences to him shall re
sult.
The fact that the state department
cabled Gerard relative to his speech
and asked what he meant was made
public to the German press was in
.tself a serious rebuke and Is so ac
cepted by German papers.
