Southeastern Alaska today la being

great damage to property, particularly
to ships and fishing vessels, will re

Almost every business house In Jun

Decision Cuts Off
Tennesees Liquor
Federal Judge TaTcCall at Memphis
Bays Webb-Xeayon Uv Prohibits
All Shipment Prom Outside State.
Memphis, Jan. 20. (I. S S.) Judge
John F. McCall in a sweeping decision
in the federal court practically knocked
out all interstate shipments of liquor
into and out of Tennessee.
Judge McCall held that the ship
ment of liquor ceases to be Interstate
business the moment the shipment
crosses the state line into Tennessee.
He held also that shipments going out
of the state could not be called Inter
state shipments until they actually
crossed the border.
Under McCall's ruling, all liquor
within the borders of Tennessee Is
subject to the ruminations of the state
laws, despite the fact that it Is being
Bhipped in or shipped out. He holds
that shipment of liquor Into Tennessee
is apparently illegal under the Webb-
Kenyon act of congress.

day. It Is regarded both In Lon
don and Stockholm, as an act of re
prisal against Great Britain for the
seizure of mails destined for Sweden.
Nine-tenths of the pulp used for
paper making; In England comes from
Norway and Sweden. The result of
this embargo will probably be a great
Increase in the price or paper in this
country.
Hall Boats Closed.
The seizure by Sweden of malls be
tween England and Russia Is causing
serious inconvenience. Huge quantl
tltles of letters and parcels passing
from one ally to the other are being
stacked up in Stockholm In reprisal
for British Interference with Swedish
mall.
The transaction of business between
London and Petrogrod has been ren
dered almost Impossible, the only mall
route open between the two capitals
being by way of the United States or
Canada, and Siberia.
So far Great Britain has shown no
Inclination to yield. All neutral ships
destined for Holland or Scandinavian
ports are being brought into British
waters and searched. All mall bags
are taken off for the purpose of weed
ing out letters intended to be for
warded to Germany and all post par
cels containing contraband are confis
cated. Swedish Steamer Seised.
The seizure of the Swedish steam
ship Frederick VIII. from New York
to Maimo, was officially

From report conditions in Multno
mah county seem to be fairly good but
In other counties the birds are suf

at the meeting urged that the commis

avert the destruction of thousands of
birds.
There are about 60 different associa
tions throughout the state which have
been informed as to the action being
taken by the local associations and the
state commission. They are being
asked to cooperate in the work.
The organizations represented were
the Multnomah. Anglers' club, Oregon
Sportsmen's league, Portland Gun
club, Salmon club of Oregon and
Northwest Sportsmen's association.

Phone; Woman Slightly Burned.
Heroic action on the part of Mrs.
Sarepta P. McDowell, an employe of
the Pacific Waste company, yesterday
afternoon saved the plant from prob
able complete destruction.
With flames all about her, Mrs. Mc

and notified the fire department be
fore she left the building. The woman's
eyebrows and hair were badly singed
and she suffered numerous burns about
the face and hands.

about the hands by flying glass.

Insurance covered both losses.
The fire yesterday started from an
overheated stove and was quickly 'ex
tinguished by the department after it
arrived. The plant will be rebuilt.
