T., Kraabel of Ctif- ford, Traill county, has been men- tioned in league circles as a possible candidate for Governor. While Mr. Kraabel has been regarded here ay an opponent of the league and his friends do not place reliance in the rumors, they have caused some food for political gossip.

GUNNESS Charged with Bigamy; Case of LaPorte “Murder | Farm” Is Recalled Chicago, Jan. 25.—Adolph Gunness, 25, nephew of Mrs. Belle Gunness, up on whose farm at LaPorte, Indiana, the remains of ten suitors were found in 1908, has been brought here to face trial on charges of bigamy. He was arrested in Madison, Wis. on a warrant sworn out by a nurs: Gunness. himself made the state- ment that Belle Gunness, believed to have perished, with her three chil- dren when her home burned near LaPorte on April 28, 1908, was his aunt, according to the police. Gunness was arrested Wednesday. He is said to have been virtually vithout funds although his second wife, Mrs. Anna Surpass Gunness, who says he married her July 20, 1923, alleged that he decamped with $1,400 of her money. He wa shocked and gassed during the war and while in the Specdwa pital here as a ward of the Veteran: Bureau met Anna Firpis, an emplo of the bureau, Mrs. Firpis Gunn said she later learned he had a w: in Wisconsin to whom he was mar- ried on January 20, 1920, and from whom he has not been divorced. The burning of the Gunness home resulted in the finding of the char- red remains of three children and x! woman, believed to have been those of the children and their mother.| The story of the disappearance of several men who had visited the, Gunness farm led to the uncovering! of 10 skeletons on the place, which, became known as the “murder farm.” Mrs. Gunness is said to have used Cupid as.a lure’ and advertised in| matrimonial bureaus, always stipu-| lating that her prospects should come! well supplied with money. The discovery of the bodies was due to the suspicion of John Helge- lein of Aberdeen, S. D., whose bro- ther, Andrew had disappeared after going to visit Mrs. Gunness in re- sponse to an advertisement. John Helgelein suggested, . digging, the ‘woman's garden with the result that the skeletons were found. SCANDIA CASES SET FOR MARCH 4 Fargo, Jan. .—-March 4 has been!

The proposals include that a rail- road car be obtained, filled with corn exhibits and sent into Minne- sota, South Dakota, Iowa, Nebraska and Illinois to advertise North Da- kota. It also has been suggested that the exhibit be put on wheels to be shown in every part of North Dakota, to convince all “doubting Thomases” in this state of the abil- ity of producers of corn, One of the outstanding facts of the show, according to officials, was that every part of North Dakota was representeg in thé prize awards and that every section of the state |proved that it could raise fine corn. Prejudice existing against the not- thern tier of counties resting on the Canadian border was dispelled by the fine exhibits of Rolette and Bottin- eau counties, while Red River Valley counties and the western sections of the state exhibited remarkably fine 5 1 mn. . | Agitation also followeq for the building of a corn palace, hich would be a constant advertisement of the state’s entrance into corn rais- Be scale, A New Pathway “Today North Dakota blazes a new hway in the march toward diver, tion of farm crops,” Commis- M, Devine States to cooperate with the Veter- declared, announcing that the immi- ans Bureau on finding employment gration department for rehabilitated former serv: I t the rnes, ne president of organiz will continue the work done by the national chamber by enlisting the rt, of American business inter- in behalf of the réhabilitated veterans, WOMAN GIVEN JUDGMENT FOR CAR DAMAGE Mrs. Julia Madden Wins $3,300 Judgment in Dis- trict Court Today ests strict court, reporting a verdict of $8,300 to Madden, whose husband was killed in a battle between o! ‘ers and rum runners near Jas town in 1921, for damages alleged sustained to « Cadillac car owned by her and driven by her husband.

LOAN DOHNEY STORY SENSATION IN DOME INQUIRY Oil Man’s Loan of $100,000 to Former Secretary of In- terior, Is Bombshell FALL SAYS HE'S ILL Will Appear Before Senatc Committee Later, However To Answer ‘Questions i] { Washington, Jan. 25.— J. W. Zeveley, Harry Sin- clair’s personal attorney, told the Teapot Dome committee today that Mr. Sinclair had loaned $25,000 in Liberty Bonds to Albert B. Fall in June, 1923, three months after Fall resigned from the cabinet. Washington, Jun, P.)—Albest B. Fall in Washington today under a subpoena to appear for examination. by a sen- ate investigating committee vefore which the sensational disclésure was made yesterday by E. L. Dohney, California oil magnate, that he had louned the former Interior Secretary $100,000 in cash on his personal note which remained unpaid. The time of the Joan was fixed by | Mr. Dohney as November 30, 1921, or some months before Mr. Fall sign- ed the lease which gave the Dohney interests control over the Naval Oil Reserve in Elhills, California. The purpose he said, was to enable Mr. Fall to purchase additional ranch property in New Mexico and he was emphatic that it was a purely person- al loan. Mr. Fall had been sum- moned for examination today but, at his request, ‘bécause of his physical condition, his appearance has been deferred until Monday. On his arrival here late last night from New Orleans he declined to dis- cuss Mr. Dohney’s testimony or to make any other statement than that he was a “sick man.” Appearing be- fure the committee as a voluntary witness, Mr. Dobney explo. . bombshell almost at the beginning of a carefully prepared statement in which he argued vigorously. against. any construction that the personal loan to Secretary Fall hnd any con- nection with the subsequent award to his company of government oil contracts. Mr. Dohney throuch his counsel, Sabin McNab, proposed to the committee that this company would reconvey to the government all interest in the contract if a beard of experts, to be named by the expert, should find that they were “not wise, desirable and advanta- geous for the government to make and the very best the government eculd have obtained.” The date of the loan was given by Mr. Dohney in his testimony yéster- day. November 30, 1921, or more than a year before Secretary Fall signed the contract leasing to Doh- ney interests the California naval oil reserves out of which committee~ men reminded Mr. Dohney he has testified he expects to make a profit of $100,000,000, “Just a Loan” Mr. Dohney declared to the com- | mittee, however, that the loan had “no relation to any of the sub quent transactions;” that it wa made by him “personally” and tt! “in connection with this loan ther was no discussion between Mr, Fa't and myself as to any contract wha'- ever.” “The transactions the order in which they occurred,” Mr. Dohney said, “dispose of any contention that they were influens ced by my making a personal loan to a lifelong friend.” The oil magnate testified that he ad advanced the money to enable Mr. Fall to enlarge his New Mexico ranch holdings and that he had fully intended to collect the loan if Mr. Fall’s death remained good and that, if necessary, he had planned to em- ploy the former secretary to look after .his Mexico holdings so as to enable him to repay the dept. Sti Unpaid Responding to questions on cross examination, Mr. Dohney said the note sent him by Mr, Fall was un- paid; that it bore no interest rate, and that no interest had been paid on it. He said he had drawn a check for the $100,000 on a New York bank and that his son had taken the cash from New York to Washington, receiving in return the note, which he thought was in Mr. Fall’s hand- writing. The witnéss was unable to pro- duce either the note or the check, although he said he had conducted a search for them before leaving Los Angeles. He declared they were not lost and possibly were in New York, He was excused after three hours on the witness stand with the un- derstanding that he would endeavor to find the note and check for the committee. Against Fall's Statement Mr. Dohney’s testimony threw 2 bombshell into. what already has de- veloped into one of the most sen-" sational investigations conducted by & congressional committee in recent years. In view. of it, Mr. Fall will be questioned when he appears ‘before (Continped on Page 8) | : i themselves, in
