250 THOUSAND ARE EMBARKINC
 EVERY MONTH

WASHINGTON, Oct 5.-General ;iarch has announced that two hun dred and fifty thousand of the Amer jeans are embarking monthly for Europe in spite of the Spanish in. iluenza epidemic which is raging in the cantonments. Over one million, eight hundred thousand men have embarked for foreign ports to engage in war and police work. The Sep tember shipment of troops were con- siderably over the two hundred and fifty thousand mark.
 The policy of the war department is to send only the men who have not had the influenza and those who have not even been exposed and by carefully following out the plan they have been able to keep the totals and to keep the disease on this side of the Atlantic so far as the great portion of the American army is con. cerned.
 At the present there is over one hundred thousand cases of the in fluenza in the home camps and many of the soldiers have been exposed and in consequence are being kept in isolation camps awaiting the out come. The men who are to be draft ed from the new registration classes are to be sent to the camps where the disease has not yet broken out.

MAIL SERVICE
 FOR TOLOVANA

On this mornings train will be sent the first mails for the win. ter service to the Tolovana. The mali will be sent over the winter trail by pack train shortly after it's arrival at Olnes. The regular de- parture days have been designated as Wednesdays.
 Carl White, who has the contract for the delivery of the mails to the Toiovana country, has maintained a good service during the summer sea- son reporting regularly each week in Fairbanks via the water route. After the days shortened and the new launch broke down he was compelled to lessen the number of deliveries. During last winter he maintained a good schedule over the trail despite adverse conditions and it is assum. ed that the same service will be con tinued for the coming season.

bUNNELL HULDS
 SPECIAL TERM

In wire received yesterday from Valdez by Clerk of Court J. B. Clark he was notified that the date of the return of Judge Bunnell to Fairbanks was indefinite owing to his holding a special term of court at that place.
 The court is in full working order, both the grand and petit juries being in attendance. Up to yesterday i've indictments had been returned by the grand jury to the court.
 Judge Bunnell intended to be in Fairbanks by the 21st of the present month, but it is doubtful if he will be able to do so. He undoubtedly will be here by the 2Sth, as at that time is scheduled the convening of the adjourned March term of court, many cases being calendared.

BOYS ARE OFF
 FOR OUTSIDE

We leave on Yukon tomorrow morning."
 The above words were the contents of brier message received last evening by H. c. Davis from his son Edby, who was a member of the last quota sent from Fairbanks to Fort Gibbon.
 The information, while brief. speaks much. It clears up all doubt as to whether the boys of Alaska would spend the winter at an inter for post instead of going on their way to the front. which was the de- sire of all of them. What their fin. al destination will be is not known at the present and probably will not be known until they arrive at some cantonment. Wherever they are the best wishes of all Alaska will accompany them.

 ON CIRCLE ROAD

From advices received in town yesterday afternoon it was learned that George Mellich, the escaped bootlegger who was serving out a fine of a thousand dollars in the federal jail and who escaped from his guard while being brought to the jail from work, had been captured on the Circle trail about fifty miles from the town of Circle.
 Since his escape Mellich has been sought for consistently but no trace of him was found outside of his cache of clothes by woman on the river bank on Buzby island, during the search for him there and his encounter with an elderly man by the name of Harris on the foot bridge going to Graehl.

ALLIED DIPS. ARE REPORTED
 SAFE, FINLAND

LONDON, Oct. 7.-The British Consul General Lockhart and party who were arrested in Moscow in the month of August are reported to have safely arrived at the Finnish frontier. and it is expected that they will soon be in Sweden.
 It is believed that the recent move on the part of the allied nations in warning the Bolsheviki that a ter rible fate awaited them if they did not observe the rules of international law had the desired effect and that the reign of terror in Russia is at an end so far as the citizens of the allied nations are concerned.

STRAPS PLACED
 ON EXHIBITION

In the last mail there was sent to The Citizen from the front three shoulder straps from the uniforms of dead German soldiers. Each strap bears the company or regi- mental number to which the sol diers belonged.
 Tommy McSmart, who sent the straps, wrote that the "Heinies" who formerly wore them had gone over the big divide and would need them no longer. Two of them show signs of wear while the other is compara- lively new. They will be placed on exhibition at the Fairbanks cigar store so the public may see the color of the cloth of which the German uniforms are made.

the surface of the river, filling the launch with water and drowning the passengers. How 1t really occurred will never be known until the launch is recovered and an examination of it's hull made.
 LATEST REPORTS. Tom Blaylock, to whom was given the charge of conducting the search, reports that the deep hole in which the boat was supposed to have sunk. has been thoroughly sounded by means of several joints of iron pipe joined together and beyond the sound of 1t hitting gravel nothing had been struck that would indicate the launch's position. Another deep hole some distance below will be Examined today after which sys- tematic search of the river will be made for several miles below the place they are now at.
 PIONEERS ACTING.
 After the business meeting of the Pioneers last evening an effort was made to charter the steamer Shu- Sdna TOT tne purpose or taxing a large party of searchers and boats to the place of the accident but ow- ing to the boat having large cargo of perishable freight the arrange ment could not be made. The own- CT of the boat offered to do all he could to aid the search and will probably devote considerable time after the delivery of his cargo at Nenana to assisting those now engag- ed.
 The catastrophe has cast shadow of gloom over both Fairbanks and Nenana and many discussions as t6 how the accident really happened may be heard wherever one goes Never in the history of the North has an occurrence been so keenly felt as the present one and no per son will rest content until the re. covery of the bodies has been made and to which end all possible ener- gies will be devoted.
