FAIRBANKS p. Q. IS ROBBED OF
 ABOUT $500

The Fairbanks postoffice was robbed at nearly hour the other morning of cash and bonds to the value of approximately $3500, con tained in the large office safe. Post master T. H. Deal is the heavy loser, currency and bonds in the amount of nearly $2,5OO, belonging to him per sonally, having been taken.
 The thief or thieves, made the entry through the registration wicket, which was forced open with a tool. The safe, which had been locked at 5 o'clock in the afternoon when Post master T. H. Deal and Assistant Post master w. E. Kenyon, the last out, left the office, was opened with the combination, evidently the work of an expert safe cracker, and had again been locked when the contents had been extracted. The exit, apparently, had also been locked when the con tents had been extracted. The exit, apparently, had also been made through the wicket opening, and the panel, which could not be returned to the grooves from the outside was leaned against the opening in such a manner that it's displacement would not be noticeable to anyone entering the outside office. Miss Lillian Smith, clerk, was in the office at 11:30 that night, and noticed nothing out of the ordinary at that time.
 The first intmation that the office had been entered was given to As sistant Postmaster Kenyon when, at 7:5O next morning, just prior to open ing time, he noticed the condition Of the wicket. He immediately informed Postmaster Deal and the safe was opened, disclosing the robbery. The contents of the safe showed nasty rifling
 This is the second postal robbery within a period of little more than year, $1O,0O0 having mysteriously disappeared from a packet received at the Nenana office of the Alaskan Engineering Commission on October 16, 1921.
 It is understood that there is standing reward of $5,000 for the ap-

 BY DECREE

ANGORA, Nov. 3.-In a proclama- tion issued today the Turkish Ma tionalist Government at Angora an nounces that it considers null and void all treaties and conventions con- cluded by the government at Con- stantinople since March 18th, 1920. This action means that the Sultan of Turkey is deposed, and that in the future only a Caliph, to be elected periodically without the prerogatives of government, will be recognized as the head of the nation. All power will be in the hands of the Nation al Assembly. The Sultan of Turkey has been ruler in name only since the rise of Mustapha Renal, who is recognized even by the Sultan as the leader of the Turks.
