BIG ESTIMATE
FOR NEXT YEAR
JUNEAU, Nov. 15.—Col. Richard
! son, chairman of the Alaska Road
Commission, has received a telegram
from Adjutant General McGain, stat
ing that Secretary of War Baker has
approved the estimates submitted by
the commission for road work in the
territory, exceeding in amount the ap
propriation for this year, and has al
so approved of the Gastineau channel
bridge, connecting Juneau with Doug
las.
The estimates will now go in the
book of estimates which the Secre
tary will recommend for appropria
tions from congress. This action in
dicates the interest being taken by the
administration in road work in Alas
ka, and its confidence in the road
commission. Col. Richardson and Ma
jor Davison are now in this city going
over the plans for the bridge. Col.
Richardson will leave some time this
week for Washington.
HAMMOND’S NEW CRAFT MAN
AGED ENTIRELY BY WIRELESS
There is no necessity for having
any captain, engineer, crew, owner, or
anyone in fact, on board motor boats
to run them now that John Hays Ham
mond, Jr., has perfected the wireless
controlled craft. A most unusual ves
sel of this type was launched in New
York waters for Mr. Hammond, and
the event, as well as the craft, was
closely wrapped in a cloak of mystery.
The fact that such a vessel had been
under construction and numerous
other facts, though not the vital ones,
have been generally known for months
but no further, news could be obtained.
However, the report of the committee
on appropriations of the house of
representatives furnishes certain other
data of interest in connection with
this, the most unusual motor boat
afloat. According to the hearings, the
vessel is a radio-dynamic torpedo craft
and is a practical development for
army and navy uses of the experi
mental vessels which for years Mr.
Hammond has had in operation off
hishome at Glouchester, Mass., the
courses of which were controlled by
wireless from a shore station. The
invention is the result of years of ex
periment by Mr. Hammond.

LIFTING LID OFF JUAREZ.
JUAREZ, Mexico, Oct. 27.—Signs
are not lacking that this city gradual
ly is reverting to the former vivid
days of the Villa regime in northern
Mexico when Juarez, owing to its gay
night life, was a mecca for tourists
from all parts of the United States.
Now it is giving evidence of desert
ing the calm, peaceful ways which it
assumed when Villa lost his hold and
Venustiano Carranza came into power
in Mexico City as the First Chief.
The most significent of these signs
is the sound of music coming from
many of the saloons, or cantinas, that
line Calle Comercio, the principal
street. For months the strident me
tallic notes of electrical pianos and
stringed orchestras (have not been
heard because the Carranza officials
put a “lid” on all music in saloons.
The “lid” is lifting gradually and
the first little tilt came when the sa
loons were allowed to sell other spir
itous liquors besides beer.
Recently seevral of the “cantinas”
removed the dusty covers from their
electrical pianos and now almost ev
ery night may be heard the latest
American, ragtime, to be followed by
the inevitable “La Paloma” and other
languid Mexican airs, played for the
benefit of tourists.
No reason is forthcoming for the
removal of the ban by the civil au
thorities. However, it is rumored
that the authorities need the revenue
to be derived from the saloons to keep
the city’s municipal machinery run
ning smoothly.
