If Stengel, cf Kelley, 1b Snvder, ¢ Nehf, p Yankee Stadium, New York, Oct. 12-—For the first time since the 1923 world series began Gotham today really was in baseball fever. Lured by the call of the mighty Lat of Babe Ruth, coaxed on by the knowledge that at least a New York Yankee team could stand toe to toes and take it with a New—York Giant outfit, the town passed from the semi-lethargic condition in which it has viewed previous installments of | the fratricidal strife and went base- ball mad. * In the two previous games neither the great Yankee Stadium nor the| imposing Polo grounds was filled— the fans came to see a superb team! the Giants function with prc-| cision—and a mighty «hero Babej Keuth—go down in ignominious de- feat. The fans they have seen Sun“tioning of the’ o; Manager McGraw directing his team to victory and they had seen/| the, illustrious Bambina groan as he struck out with a groan or popped ! to the infield. But they have not) seen tWo great teams fighting nec ‘and neck now with a deft rapier. like lunge again with a blazing at-| tock. Come Out Today When the word went out last night that Babe Ruth finally had arrived ts a ball-punching world series hit- ter and that the series stood at a dead heat the fans caught on. They caught the old world series excite- ment, the tang, the blood-tingling that the older renewals of the Oct- ober classic had inspired. The shifting of the scene to the Yankee stadium was helpful. The fans were livelier. They didn’t sit buck in their seats and pull’ their hats over their eyes to await the appearance of the players. They talked, they squirmed in their seats. they argued and cleared their throat: to shout. Ruth came on a few mi utes after the rest of the ‘team and heard the’ most welcome sound he has listened‘to in all the world ser- jes he has participated. He walked; gingerly to the batting cage. and smashed out: two balls, one,a low one to right-field which brought forth a bedlam of noise. came and the’ smooth- .

M., TOMORROW IN WATERWORKS BOND ELECTION; FEAR LIGHT VOTE | Bismarck citizens who are interested in their own pocketbooks, in the city’s acquisition of a waterworks system and in the city itself, must vote tomorrow on the questions presented in a special election by the city commission. Unless the voters get out in great numbers—and late today it was feared that the vote would be light —the waterworks bond issue will fail. , if it fails it means the city cannot acquire its~ own waterworks. spent to date is wasted. It also means that all money Should the city, in the event the voters did not get out, choose to take the old method of issuing warrants instead of a bond issue, it would cost the voters thofisands of dollars more in interest. (The el lection is not to vote more money—it is to replace warrants at a saving. The question is: If you want the city to go through with the city waterworks plan get out and vote yes. It you don’t just stay at home. ~ To which might be added if you want the city to spend a lot more money ‘than is necessary, just stay at home; but if you wan vote “yes.” There are two auibatiens: on. The vote is “Yes” or t to save yourself money, Both must be voted “No.” The city commis- sion asks the voters to vote “Yes.” The questions are: 1. in an amount not exceedi: Shall the City of Bismarck bec@ne indebted ing 4 per cent of the as- sessed value of the taxable value of the property of city without regard to existing indebtedness of sail chasing a waterworks for city, for the purpose of constructing or pur- the purpose of furnishing a supply of water to inhabitants of said city? 2. Shall the city of Bismarck issue bonds in the sum of $235,000 in denominations of .$1,000 each ‘ payable one-tenth in each of the years.-1934 to 1943, both inclusive, with interest at the rate of 6 per cent, payable semi-annually, such interest. payments to be evidenced by interest coupons attachedito:such bonds for the’purpose of purchasing or constructing a waterworks to supply water to inhabitants of said city.?

A con- vention of the league held in Bis- marck just after the 1923 legislative session endeq in the same manner, but factional warfare broke out shortly thereafter. While the “insurgents” in the league were claiming victory, actual- ly it appeared that the “regulars” had completely controlled the con- vention and had relented only so far as they might without sacrificing their views. and at the same time» placating- the “insurgents.” William Lemke, one of those against whom the “insurgent” fight was directed, would only say after the convention that “I am perfectly satisfied with the result.” A regular leader gaid: “The Mikle- thun crowd got only what we wanted to give them, ,and it wasn’t much at that.” , Lemke on Committee. Mr. Lemke’ took no part in the convention, but after the convention he took part in a meeting at which the question of accommodation notes was discussed. committee to work with the state executive committee to devise ways and means of raising funds to pay off these accommodation ‘notes. He is not out of the league unless ‘the wants to be, and it appeated from his action in accepting this appoint- | ment that he do jot want to be. The “insurgents” in the convention today were claiming they had se- cured a victory in forcing incor- poration of a resolution severing all relations with the national executive committee, formerly composed of A. C. Townley, William Lemke and F, B. Wood, while others held the “vic- tory” was empty since the league committee had long 880 ceased to function, The league is confronted by what its ‘members, regard as a serious dilemma in approaching the next éampaign, which must be settleg in the convention next February. Wil- liam Lemke, by receiving 79,000 votes for governor as a Nonparti- san but in the individual column of the ballot in November's elec- tion, created the Nonpartisan League party and it would be entitled to a place on the ballot. The Democratic party had no candidate for governor and the question is raised whether or not the Democratic party lost its Place on the ballot: What Column to Take. The Nonpartisan League has al- ways entered the Republican pri- mary ang has profited by the fact that many independents remained in the Democratic party. The new situ- ation, some leaguers foresee, creates @ straight alignment between the in- dependent forces of the state and the Nonpartisans, and with the league turn by factional warfare and loss of power they believe that the league is at a material disadvantage. If the league chooses to remain in the Republican party the opposition may fill the Nonpartisan League party column and confuse thejr voters, they say, while if they re- out of the Republican primary they lose a benefit of having for years educateg their voters to vote as ’Republicans, > Text of Resolution.

BODY FOUND.N OFFICE AFTER HE IS MISSED The Suicide Apparently Oc- curred on Wednesday Authorities Decide Had Declared Recently That He was Not Feeling Well, Friends Say | J. H. Holihan, 43 years old, well {known real estate man of Bismarck, | was found dead in his office at 1:30 o'clock €his afternoog. He had com- mitted suicide by shooting himself ‘with a revolver. The suicide pro- bably occurred Wednesday night. The body was discovered by R. D. Hoskins and Chief of Police Martine- son. The former, not having noticed Mr. Holihan about, tried the door of his office earlier in the day and al- so tried to telephone him, Mr. Holi- han’s office being in the Hoskins block, with entrance on Broadway. Suspecting that something was wrong Mr. Hoskins called Chief of Police Martineson and the two forc- ed the door to the office, They found Mr. Holihan dead in bed, in a side-room of the office. He was partially clothed, lying on his back, a bullet. wound was in_his . right temple and a 32-calibre auto- hand. Dr. F. B. Strauss and acting cor- oner Casselman were called Dr. Str jd that Mr. Holihan had been dead from 36 to 48 hours, Death appafently was’ instantane- ous. There was no sign of a confu- sion, the body resting in orderly manner on the bed. The time of the suicide was fixed | by authorities partly by newspapers. Wednesday’s papers were foun: on a table, and apparently had been read. Thursday's papers. had been shoved under the office door and had not been touched on the inside.! It is believed the suicide occurred at night; else the report of the shot would have been heard. Motive for the suicide is conjec- tural. Mr, Holihan had complained 'to’a number of people recently that he was not feelfng well. Despond- ency from this cause, and perhaps poor business and similar causes, is believed to have \ed to the Mr. Holihan 10 to 12 drug store here, now. out of business. He was both a druggist and chemist. Later he went into the real estate business, specializing in farm prop- erty.

They got no loot. Posses from Oregon and California counties are seeking them.

The mail clerk never had a chance for his life. He barricaded -himself in his;car and the robbers either threw the fused éxplosive through the -window ‘or ‘set off a blast at the door in an, effort to get in. The mail pouches ‘were burst ‘and torn and stove overturned. Fire follow- ed. “Whether the mail clerk was burn- ed to death or died from the shock of the explosion cannot be determin- ed. “His--body was. charred. beyond recognition. All mail was destroyed. The concussion of the blasts shat- tered windows in cars farther back ir the train and flying glass was responsible. for passengers injuries. ’ Emerges from Tunnel The train emerged from the tun- nel running slowly. -Because a bridge crew was at work trainmen at ithe rear of the train felt no appre- hension when the train slowed down’ even more. Then several shots were heard. A moment or two later came the explosion. The blast sent the fumes of dynamite smoke into tl tunnel and they seeped into the cai rendering more terrible a situation which already had thrown passeng- ers in some coaches into something very ‘near a panic. ~ Conductor C. G. Merritt, who was in charge of the train, attempted to quiet the passengers and then rush- ed toward the engine, accompanied by another trainman, They found S. L. Bates, 55, the engineer and Marvin Seng, 28, the fireman, lying beside the engine cab on the ground. Each had been shot through the head and apparently had’ died in- stantly. Near their bodies lay C. 0. Johnson, 40, a brakeman, not on duty who had been riding on the train. Apparently he had rushed to the engine ahead of the two trainmen and had been shot. He died from s|the effect of four bullet wounds in his stomach, Possés Out The body of the mail clerk E. Dougherty, 35, was in the burning mail: car. Authorities at Redding, Reka, Siskiyou, -California, and Ashland, Oregon, immediately were notified and posses were hastily formed under iSheriff Andrew Kalsins of Reka, Sheriff Terrell of Jackson county, Oregon, and Prohibition Enforcement Officer, S.
