i i A B R o PAGE FOUR WILBUR LYCAN ORDERED T0 PRINCETON UNIVERSITY ¥. 8. Lycan, proprietor of the 14ark- ham hotel, received a telegram from his youngest son, Wilbur, this morn- ing, dated at Baltimore, Md., as fol- lows: “Am transterred to Princeton uni- versity today. Will report tomorrow meorning for two months’ school. Am certainly mighty happy. Address me at Princeton, N. J., care of officers’ training school.” wilbur Lycan has been at Hamp- don Roads, Norfolk, Va., and has been anxiously waiting for the oppor- tunity now afforded him. He has been in the service since April, 1917, leaving with the Bemidji naval mil- itia at that time. Mr. Lycan also received a kodak picture of Harry Roskowick, formerly manager of the Hotel Markham, this morning. Mr. Roskowick looks hale and hearty as ever, and does not ap- pear to have lost in weight. He 1s head steward on the transport ‘“Man- churia’” and had made six trips across the “pond.” The picture shows him syrrounded by a number of tots. T0 PRODUCE BUSHEL OF WHEAT COSTS $2.25. SAYS WHEAT EXPERT PN Washington, Sept. 7.—The average cost of wheat production was esti- mated at $2.256 a bushel by BE. H. Thompson, acting chief of the bureau of farm management, testifying be- fore the senate agrigulture commit- tee. Mr. Thompson said, however, that most of the wheat produced cost considerable less and that even with a further increase of 10 per cent in costs, the farmers of the central west shold be able to ‘‘break up” at the primary market price of $2.20 fixed by the president for next year’s crop. In the north central states the cost for the crop year of 1917 ran from $1.50 to $3.50 a bushel, the commit- tee was told, while for the majority of growers there the cost rangel from $1.75 to $2.50 a bushel. “Then to stimulate production you would have to fix the price above that amount?”? asked Senator Norris of Nebraska, referring to the average cost of $2.26 a bushel. “Most assuredly,” was the reply. . W. W. LEADER IDENTIFIED AS BEING IMPLICATED IN CHICAGO BOMB PLOT Chicago, Sept. 7.—In a statement given out, Michael F. Suliivan assist- ant state’s attorney, declared that John ‘W. Wilson, arrested Thursday night, has been positively identified as having been implicated in the planting of the bomb in the Federal bulding. . Explosion of the homb kill- ed four persons and resulted in seri- ous injury to a score of others. Wilson is a member of the I. W. W. % He is believed at one time to have been private secretary to William D. Haywood, general secretary-treasur- er.: Indentified by Four. In his announcement, Mr. Sullivan said Wilson had been identified by four persons as the man seen running away-from the Adams street entrance of the Federal building shortly before the bomb exploded. He was described | FOUR CHICKENS BRING $4 IN SALVAGE DRIVE Hansen of East It was Mrs N, S as “the man with a black Fedora hat,| Bemidji who' offered to give to the who ran out of the building, leaped into a black automobile and was whirled away. Detectives who questioned Wilson said he admitted ‘that he was em- ployed as a bookkeeper by the I. W. ‘W. and that he spent the greater part of Wednesday in the Federal build- ing, whither he went, he said, to ar- range for the transfer of Haywood to the office of the Federal prosecu- tor in order that Haywood might at- tend to some private business affairs. He denied any connection with the explusion. ROYAL FAVORITE I [S : NOW WAITRESS’ PAL By Joseph Shaplen (United Press Correspondent.) New York, Sept. 7.—At least one member of the former Czar’s house- hold enjoyed .the respect and . good care of the bolsheviki. ' He lived comfortably ‘at the hotel Astoria, opposite the German embassy in Pet- rograsd, a.hostelry that at one time was the rendezvous of fashionable Petrograd and' has since the bol- shevik revolution been occupied by bolshevik officials. The aforementioned member of the ex-Czar's family lived in one of the finest rooms of the hotel. His food was carefully attended to by a waltress who showed a .particular liking for him and called him ‘‘her own.” I once had a long talk with her about him while she. served me some bad fish and cabbage soup for dinner. There was a soft fondness written all over her face and she said that her Romanoff friend would yet bring her a lot of money as a foundation of her fortune. As I was working away at the fish he came in, rather tall, graceful, the aristocrat par excellence. There was a deep melancholy look .in his eyes and he seemed to be demanding not sympathy but recognition. Then I understood the waitress’ fondness for him. I realized that many an American society’ woman would have lost her heart to him, for it was the former Czar's:favorite Russian wolf hound. INDIAN OFFICER ENLISTS- FOR SPECIAL SERVICE Although a. federal officer in the service of the Indian department,] W. J. Johnson, who has been working with Chief Brandt of this'Indian dis- trict, has enlisted for special limited service with the military and is awaiting assignment at Camp Dodge. Johnson was one of the best young federal officers in Northern Minne- sota, about as afraid of any specimen of humanity as a full grown cat is afrald of a mouse, and he made a most efficient off.icer. He felt that being a young man and a husky chap he would like to enlist and notified his chief. He was allowed to leave the Indian service during the war and immediately joined the service, being called as a special.
