JUDGE OVERFIELD
 WILL GO SOUTH

Judge Peter D. Overfeld will prob ably be a passenger on the Southbound Princess Sophia tonight, He will probably not come back to Alaska right away. Everything at Valdez is cleaned up and there remained in Ju- neau but the signing of the bill of eX- captions in the Itow murder case and the decree and findings of facts in the Alaska.Gastineau case against Tread well and bill of exceptions in the same case. These matters were at tended to this afternoon.
 Judge overfeld said that he thought that his official duties as a district Judge in Alaska would end in Juneau today. He has not the slightest doubt but that Judge Fred NJ. Brown will be confirmed at once and that the new Judge will take over the matters now pending.
 No, haven't made any plans for the future" said Judge Overfield. q shall probably join Mrs. Overfield at Long Beach, California, and then we shall look around before settling down. Mrs. Overield's health is not good in Alaska, and for this reason we may establish ourselves on the coast. Mrs. Overfeld likes Southern California, but I'm afraid that is too far from Alaska"
 The Judge is very much impressed with all the activity around Juneau and is loath to leave the place. The known wealth of the mountains be- hind the town, the boundless possibil- ities, that await the industrious hand of development; and the opportunity to be factor in bringing it all about holds a certain charm. And, besides all this, the Judge is a true son of Alaska, in spirit, and he will find it hard indeed to withstand the call that others have failed to resist.

Roumania is said to be proceeding to
occupy a much larger extent of terri

There is still talk of Russia interfer-
ing and it is reported from st. Peters
burg that the powers in concert have
notified the Sublime Porte they will not
permit military operations beyond the

No fresh fighting is reported and It
appears that rumors regarding a revo-

The Bulgarian government accuses
Greece of circulating false accounts Of
Bulgarian atrocities with view of pre-
pairing the ground for future territorial
claims and expresses itself as willing
to submit the whole matter to an inter-

ed that an agreement has been reach
