Germans Near Canada
PORTLAND, Maine, July 20.—The report has ar
rived here that British warships off the coast of Nova
Scotia sighted a German submarine yesterday and fired
several shots at it, but with what result is not known.
That the warships sq>v, at least, some undersea craft is
assured but some doubt has been expressed as to the likeli
hood of the Germans sending a submarine so far from
home waters. In some minds the suspicion has been
created that the submarine was under control of British
sympathizers in this country.
SERB-ITALIAN TROUBLE
GENEVA, July 20.—A war within a war is now one
of the extraordinary possibilities threatened bv the oc
cupation by the Serbians of positions around Durazzo in
Albania. The occupation of Durazzo by the Serbs was
protested by the Italians but the Serbians have answered
the protests by taking more territory in the neighbor
hood and territory whose strategic position suggests the
determination of the occupiers to be ready to hold the
ground at all costs. The relations between* Italy and
Serbia are now consequently strained Italy regards the
possession of or suzerainty over the eastern coasts of the
Adriatic as rightly her own and diplomatic circles expect
at any moment to hear that the government of Rome will
take positive steps to guard what it believes to be its in
terests in that region.
THE WEST QUIET
LONDON, July 20.—The quietest time for the west
ern theatre since the beginning of the war is the present.
So far as the people of tins country know there is hardly
a skirmish taking place, unless artillery exchanges can be
taken into account, but this very stillness is regarded as
ominous as showing that some important movements are
afoot for which preparations are going forward. Some
of the most daring of the newspapers suggest that now
would be the time for the French and British to make
their supreme effort while the Russians are still able to
hold the Teutons in the east. A fear is constantly present
that the Russian opposition might crumble at any time
and leave the western allies to bear the whole brunt.
AUSTRIAN AIRSHIP LOST
ROME, July 20.—An Austrian aeroplane which had
been bombarding Bari was struck yesteradv by gun fire
and fell in the sea, becoming a total loss and drowning
her pilot. The damage inflicted by her was not serious
Several other raids have been made by the enemy from
the air but the results secured are hardly sufficient to pay
for the risks undergone. Two Austrian submarines are be
lieved to have been lost while reconnoitering the Italian
coast but absolute proof is lacking. The facts seem to be
so plain, however, that doubt can hardly be entertained
of the sinking of the vessels.
SINKS RUSSIAN
LONDON. July 20.—A German submarine sank the
Russian steamship Gradetsky today off the coast of Eng
land and caused the loss of many lives. It is the only ves
sel reported to have been sunk by submarines within the
past couple of days.

FORMER ALASKAN MAKES
GOOD* FOR MEXICAN CHIEF
FAIRBANKS.—Although a little
i more perilous at the present time to
be a Mexican soldier, it is more lucra
I tive, according to Master Signal
Electrician Robert Loghry, who is
now in charge of the telegraph sta
j tion here. This faet was demonstrat
i ed by Samuel T. Fiske, a former mas
ter signal electrician in the signal
| corps, who is now a colonel in Villas
army.
According to Sergeant Loghry,
Fiske was down on the bonier with
the American troops, and was draw
ing down about $95 per month, to
[ gether with his quarters, clothes and
food. While that was not so bad in
that country, he became dissatisfied
and, seeing a chance for adventure,
decided to go over to the Mexican side.
Upon being discharged from the
army he met Villa and made a bar
gain with him for his services. He
entered the service as lieutenant, but
soon went up the line of promotion
until he became colonel and chief sig
nal officer.
I ALASKA MINER DOES BATTLE
WITH SAN FRANCISCO POLICE
SAN FRANCISCO.—Albert Mor
ris, an Alaska miner, who gave Chief
of Police White, Traffic Officer E. R.
Jones and Police Chauffeur James
Nealy a battle last Monday when an
effort was made to arrest him for
cruelty to his Eskimo dog, ran wild
in “Spider” Kelly’s Mason street cafe
last night, amusing himself by hurl
ing beer glasses through a mirror.
Policemen Nash and Brady were
called, but Morris was just as full of
fight as when he tackled Chief White.
It took a stiff battle on the part of
the two policemen before the husky
miner was subdued and taken to the
city prison.
