PETTY THEFTS ARE PREV AL LENI
 IN AIRBANkS

Although the federal officials and Acting Chief of Police Jack OConnor are authority for the statement that nothing definite regarding the matter has been reported 10 them, it is learn ed upon reliable information that there has recently been considerable petty thievery in Fairbanks. But. having learned the rumors of the thefts, the officials ask that such be reported 10 them. giving them some kind of clew to work on in order that the thief may be apprehended. Some of those who have been vic timized, so to speak, suspect one party of having committed the thelts, but nobody has ever sworn out a warrant against him, owing to the fact that sufficient evidence to con vict is not obtainable. His actions are to be watched closely, however, and il is altogether probable that he will be apprehended the next time he attempts to turn a crooked trick
 The latest rumOred theft is that of approximately thirty dollars worth of groceries from the cabin of a Jap living on Fourth avenue be, tween Cleary and State streets, who is cooking on the steamer Minneap oils. He is reported to have re turned home after the last trip oi the boat to find his supplies missing. That nothing but food was wanted by the thief is evidenced by the fact that nothing else was taken, three rifles and other Valuables be ing left intact in the cabin by the prowler.
 The theft of considerable quan tity of brass fixtures belonging to machinery, from Cinema, was reported not long ago Likewise the theft of fifty young chickens in one place and 200 pounds of caribou meat from another Numerous other petty the1ts are also rumored
 The officials ask that these thefts be reported to them, and request the cooperation of the residents in ferreting out the crimes. The "cr- tainly cannot do so unless they 1rH assisted to this extent

 IS REI BASED

After the trial of Henry Cordolin- ski. of Gilmore creek. in commis- sioners court yesterday afternoon, Commissioner Reed Heilig gave it as his opinion that the defendant had done nothing for which he should be placed under peace bonds, as re quested in the complaint of the com plaining witness. Harry Huneckc, Judge Heilig therefore ordered that Cordolnski be released and his bondsmen cXonerated
 The complaint, said Judge Heilig in passing judgment would lead to the belief that the defendant had at tempted to kill the plaintiff. This state of affairs was not substantiat- ed by the evidence, in the judges opinion. and as a consequence he or dered the release of the defendant.

NEHAI'FF,I IS
 E.NROUTE. OUT

Captain Joseph Mehaftey, engineer officer of the Alaska Road commis- sion, did not remain in Fairbanks long after he arrived here yesterday on the Panama. He merely LOOK time to inspect the work being done on the Ester trail, being driven out to the scene by Superintendent t. J. Sommers in his car, starting after noon for the coast, again with MT. Sommcrs. He will inspect the work being done on the trail while en route It is barely possible that MT. Sommers will also journey on to the coast.
 Captain Mehaffey stated yesterday morning that he was sorry he could not remaia longer in F2i1banks. New duties, however, call him back to road commission headquarters a1 Ju- near. where, unless other officers gre appointed soon to succeed General W. ?. Richardson and Col, P. W. Davidson, he will probably be the only officer on duty, in fact, the road commission in one man He does not know how soon General Richardson will be called from the prt sidency of the commission to take active command, but Col David sun has already been called Dut- side He leaves Juneau on August 2S, and Captain Mehaffey has been made disbursing officer of the com mission in his place The captain must therefore be at Juneau by the twenty-eighth in order to assume his duties.
 Captain Mehaffey seems not at all pleased with the idea that the two eldest members of the road commis- oIOH SIlpult Dt SIN'Il tNN'i'N N''A' mands and himself left out. He would like nothing better than that he could get into the corps Of cn- gineers that is being sent to France as unit of the new army. He made application for transfer from his present duties to the engineer corps, being an engineer officer, but his request was denied on the ground that he is needed ir his present ca pacity and also for the reason that at present large numbers of en- gineer officers are available, with but few engineers. comparatively speaking.
 Col. Davidson, according to Cap tain Mehaffey, expects to command regiment of the new army now being formed.

COPENHAGEN, Aug. B. That German casualty lists are no longer permitted to leave Germany k the state ment of travellers arriving here from over the frontier Of the kaiscr's realm.

 This policy is said to have been adopted within the past week. or since the British and French resumed their ter rife drive on the western front. This attempt to cover up her losses is taken to indi- cate that the Germans have suffered unusually severe cas- ualtics in the past few days.
