Trips would be made 13 times a week, during the summer months, and six times in the winter. An aeroplane would have to be able to carry a weight limit of 300 pounds.
The present cost of the service is $23,000 a year. The Alaskan routes form a connecting link from Seward to Nome, thence to Fairbanks and back" to Valdez. Most of them gall for a service twice a week throughout the year. On some of the routes the cost now is as high as a year, and in winter six weeks is required to make the trip. The aeroplane contracts allow two days for most of the trips.
The longest route, Valdez to Fairbanks, is 35S miles. The extreme time limit of six weeks on some of the routes is required because mail sometimes has to be routed via Seattle.

Diplomatic presentatives of the entente allies have made oral representations to Secretary Lansing'regarding the American memorandum to them suggesting the disarming of merchant ships and suggesting that armed merchantmen entering American ports might be regarded as warships. Although the State Department declined to discuss the nature ot the representations, it is believed Secretary Lansing was informed that the entente governments were unwilling adopt the suggestion. Formal replies to the memorandum are expected and it is considered doubtful that the exact position of the United States will be defined until after they lave been received. The text of the notes from Germany and Austria which have been handed to Ambassadors Gerard and Penfield setting forth the intention of those governments to treat armed merchant ships of the entente allies as worships after the last of this month also are being awaited. So far it was said, the representations of the entente has to do solely with the American memorandum.
From several quarters has come tne information that the United States may warn its nationals to avoid armed merchant ships. This, it was said, in-fyftrnaa n. what the German and Austrian Gov-ernments have been aiming to achieve. Possible Boycott Discussed.

The President left here late last night, nccompnied by Mrs. Wilson.
Their return is set for tomorrow night or Min-oay morning. Lane In High Fnvor. While Lane is the favorite, it was ointed out today that there are several excellent reasons why the President 'would be reluctant to transfer him from the Interior Department. One of these is the Alaskan problem, on which Mr. Lane has a remarkable grasp, and which he is keenly interested in.
Secretary Houston has thoroughly the Department of Agriculture tfince his appointment, and that department would suffer little by the change official heads. Praise of Houston was sung in un stinted measure by an official close to the President. "Why not Col. E. M.

While this was urged as furnishing excellent ground fot his appointment it also was urged strongly in opposition iMid it is not believed that Col.
House is the man whom President Wilson has nost prominently in mind. Other men who figure in the goss'p are Senator Stone, former Mayor Newton P. Baker of Cleveland, former Gov.
