OFRICimilUiM
Seattle, Nov. 20. — Attracted by
the Known wealth of Siberia and feel
ing that with the establishment of
* staUe government in that coun
try great possibilities will be open
ed to the peopl© of America, the
beginning of » great rush 10 Siberia
already apparent and a great
traas-Pacific trad® is developing.
Captain^ of industry: here believe
the Siberian trade in the next sev
eral years will assume the propor
tions of war time commerce. About
200,000 tons of Russian freight now
ll assemDled in Seattle au^! a vast
tonnage is on the way fj-om the east
for shipment through this port.
Alaska, it ig expected, by reason
of its proximity to Siberia will be
benefited Oy this trade expansion.
It is not doubted but that the
two countries will develop simul
taneously.
Siberia "ud Alaska will be the
two irreat magnets in America for
the returning stftdiers. Alaskans
wintering here are displaying a keen
interest in the Siberian movement
llany Seattle people plan to leave
for the new country and' steamship
oompauies are besieged daily for in
formation concerning transporta
tion^
Seattle is making extensive Pre
parations to enter the Siberian
trade. The United States shipping
board dispatched one freignter *°r
Vladivostok early in the week with
a capacity cargo. It is indicated
this freighter will he followed by a
nuniobr of other government vessels.
British, Japanese, American and
Russian flags all will he represented
soon a# a proper Siberian gov"
eminent is estaolished.
That the great indutrial concerns
of the northwest are anticipating an
extension of r.usineps With Siberia is
shown by the number of representa
tives they have scut VI 'divostok. Th
Pacific Steamshio company is ui»
patching men who will open u
i Vladivotok agency.
Canada al&o is evincing consider
able interest in the new "lfnd of
riches" aUd if is known the lioyal
Bank of Canada sent a man this
week to open a Vladivostok branch.
Vancouver is reported to be pru
ning on entering the new fieid.
As yet there is no dircet passage
service to Vladivostok, the gateway
to the rick interior and th© im
mediate goal o.: tho:-c headed for
the country, l* 13 believed, how
ever, such a bteaiiiship line will be

At present the route which is
followed is irom Seattle to Yoko

J Newg wag received in Fairbanks
several dayg ajro from Port Yukon !
that an Indian belonging to the tril4
living at the head of the Christian |
river had arrived at the Yukon town
bearing news of 'he killipg of two ]
white men by two young Indians be
longing to the Christian river tribe,
th© scene of t^e killing being in the
: foothill^ in that vicinity.
The tale as told by Ezacg Simon,
the bearer of the newg, jg that the
two boyg were out in the hills hunt
ing when they observed" two white
men crawling: up on them. They at
once opened fire, on © oif the men
dropping to tie groumxk The oth
er was fired upon and he, too, fell.
Leaving tho bodies where
were lying th© Doyg went to the
village with the newp, the messenger
shortly after leaving for Fort Yukon

sioner is stationed, with the informal
tion. On being informed of thej
crime Commissioner F. C. White ad
vised botli the marshal's office and
that of the district attorn«y as to
what had happened' and asked for
instructions* He was authorized to
mak© an investigation, and if the
facts of the case warranted it to I
mak© an arrest.
Yesterday It was learned that
Deputy Marshal Phil McGuira had
left the Yukon town jifor the scene
/Ol the crime to lnve8tigate the cir

Dispute Over Great Chaco Kegion;
L» Paz, Bolivia. — Influx of A
merican capital into the central
republics of South America for
the development of vast areas of
hitherto untouched resources has
caused Bolivia and Paraguay to !
awaken to a realization of the Pos- I
slbilities that lie in the disputed
zone which is known as the Great
Chaoo.
The boundary line "between these j
two republics never hag been fxed
definitely because of the -wildtiess of
thg country, buft both nations have
been satisfied with going on record
ae claiming all the zone and then
going about their daily business
without forcing the issue.' '

up for final settlement.
The Great Chaco is a vast area
north of Argentina between the I'll* !
cofayo and Paraguay rivers. It is J
claimed by both Bolivia and! Para- !
£uay though both admit that their I
claimu are go large that they will j
have to oive up large areas in the :
final reckoning.
For several years Bolivia has
be^n preparing quietly for the day
of final settlement, so that it is

There is more Catarrh In this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and for years It was sup

local remedies, and by constantly failing
to cure with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Catarrh is a local disiasa,
greatly influenced by constitutional con
