for gasoline Half of the benzol out
put of German coke ovens was used
for motors in 1918, and at present 1t

CRAIG MAY RETURN
AS CITY ENGINEER
Rumors at City Hall Declare Elec-
ton Of Jardine Will Bring
About Such Change.
CRAIG IS NOW IN CALGARY

Rumors in the city hall lend color
to the probability that George w.
Craig, former city engineer, will re-
turn from Calgary, Canada, to re-
sumo his former work in the depart
ment of public improvements, in the
event that Walter S. Jardine's cleo
ton is confirmed by the official can
vass now in progress. Letters from
Mr.. Craig have been received and
friends here are working in his
behalf.
Those on the inside declare that Mr..
Craig and Mr.. Jardlne. being republicans,
has some bearing on the situation. Mr..
Craig succeeded Andrew Rosewater as
city engineer and was succeeded by Wat
son Townsend, the present city engineer.
In the event Of Mr.. Jardine being as
signed to the department Of public inn
provennents Il viii be up to him to recon-
mend the man he wants for engineer.
Last winter there were reports that
Mr.. Craig intended returning 20 Omaha
and running as a candidate for city COM
missioner.
Affairs Quiet Down.
Affairs In the city hall are auieting
down again and the municipal machinery
is in operation about as usual, There is
some feeling of uncertainty among the
employees IN the department OF public inn
provornents, and also in the department
Of street cleaning and maintenance over
prospective changes on account of the
election OF two new commissioners. Two
of the foremen of the street department
are reported to have not been as loyal to
the Square Seven" as they should have
been.
Mayor Dahlmsn is taking a brief rest
and Conmnissioner Butler Is acting mayor

In the conference between the mayor
and the four. reelected commissioners II
was agreed that Commissioner Butler
shall continue as chairman of the COM
g-inittee of the whole, which automatically
makes him acting mayor when the mayor

sTEFANssoN WILL
 CONTINUE SEARCH
 FORE MORE NEW LAND

Explorer Vilhjalmur stefansson's advices to the Canadian government that he was safe at Banksland camo from Nome, Alaska, in the form of message signed by himself and dis patched from Bailey Island, August 31. The message follows:
 "As unavoidable delays threatened and the running cost of chartering the Polar Bear was high, purchased her and engaged her on terms similar to the Karluk Engaged Rolf, engin- ger of schooner Ruby, to take place of Blue, of Alaska Engaged five ex- tra helpers for southern party who have ample outfit for one year and Polar Bear for two years. Plan to continue Northern explorations to 145 West and 82 North if northerly course is secured"
 Stefansson's determination to pro- ceed with his explorations despite the loss of the Karlul1. the chief ves- sel in his original expedition. shows the calibre of the man, and his news was received at Ottawa with gratifi- cation by officials connected with the expedition.
 The Polar Bear, engaged by him in place of the Karluk, is a well known and tried Arctic vessel, and he seems to have gathered supplies for further stay of two years in the Arctic game.
 Bailey Island, from which Stefan sson's message is dated, is east of the mouth of the Mackenzie river, to- ward Banks land. and lies in latitude 70 north longitude 127 west The coast of Bailey island which is sep arted from Cape Bathhurt by a nar- row channel is so flat that there are few boats that have reached there and those which have ventured there have had to anchor nearly a mile from the beach. Capt. Pullen camped there in 1850 trying to get around Cape Bathurst but he was unable to do so on account of the ice, which was piled on the island and in the channel.

ScHWAB EXTENDS
 OPERATING CAPACITY
 OF BETHLEHEM COMPANY

SOUTH BETHLEHEM. Pa.. Sept. 22.-The Bethlehem Steel Company is making arrangements to extend greatly its plant here and to develop on a large scale Its ore beds in Chile.
 The contemplated improvements, which will entail an expenditure of nearly S5O,OOO. will be in connection with the manufacture of munitions and also domestic business. The pol icy of Mir. Schwab of putting back into the plant every year its earnings will be followed. and these. because of the enormous war orders and con- seQuent profits, will be very large.
 It is said S3O,OO0,OOO will be spent in the development of the Chilean ore beds which contain a high grade of iron ore, and in building Q transport fleet of DO vessels. A huge tin plate mill will be erected at Shimersville. a village near here. which the com pany recently purchased. Another battery of blast furnaces will be built here.
