Mors, latest of the ex-pugi Ys heart fancies, killed herself, according to Po- lice Detectives in charge of the case. Los Angeles, Aug. 14.—Kid McCoy, veteran of. the prize ring, whose clever fists brought ‘him fat purses and fighting renown more than a quarter of a century ago, today stands in a jail cell facing the most desperate battle of his career—a fight to free himself of a charge of murdering a woman. The woman, Mrs. Theresa Mors, divorced wife of a wealthy antique dealer, was found dead early yester- day in the apartment she and Mc- Coy, whose true name is Norman Selby, fas occupied for several weeks as “Mr. and Mrs. N. Shields.” In her head was a .32 calibre bullet; nearby was an automatic pistol of the same calibre, and a note from » McCoy bequeathing all his earthly Possessions to his mother. McCoy’s Explanation When McCoy was arrested several hours later after terrorizing patrons of two fashionable shops and shoot- ing and slightly wounding two per- sons he was silent for a time but finally talked _ freel; Mrs. Mors the shock and grief lights” and filled him with an insane rage to kill her husband “who drove her to to kill all those who stood in his way and finally to kill himself. But fate failed from him and his plan to kill himself was lost am the swirl of events, “I was going to kill myself,” he id, explaining the note found in the apartment, “but—I forgot.” Police believe portions of McCoy's story but declare that his suicide version has already received its knockout blow from the “Kid’s” own 4 sister, Mrs. Jennie Thomas, who said “McCoy came -to her home soon after the shooting of Mrs. Mors and burst out with: “I just had to kill that woman.” Sought Reconciliation Late last night detectives called jat the Thomas home but after con- ferring with the woman's attorney, they agreed not to question her fur- ther on the understanding that she would tell the complete story of McCoy’s visit and confession to Dis- trict Attorney Keys today. McCoy admitted that he had call- ed on his sister soon after Mrs. Mors’ death but “couldn’t remember y win I told her or how long I stay- ed” He clung, to,,his suicide version of the shgoting, telling detectives that Mrs. Mors was driven to des- pair by her trouble with her former husband, that she suddenly cried out that she “couldn’t stand it any longer” and attempted to stab her- self to death with a butcher knife. When this failed, he said, she took a pistol from the dresser drawer and fired a bullet through her head be- fore he could stop her. Police declare, however, that what Mrs. Mors re: planned was a re- conciliation with her former hus- band and that McCoy's jealous rage over this pending reconciliation led him to kill her and then go out and kill more. ANTI-SIGN CAMPAIGN ON Ne Commission Would | »—__—. Limit Location of Bill- fo billboards along North Dako- »-xte’s highways excepting those which are placed on privately owned pro- perty, and a heavy tax on those few.” Such is the attitude of the State Highway Commission toward the un- sightly menaces which now deface the State’s roadways. By following out such a policy, curing legislation which will accom- plish it, the highway department hopes to, ultimately, do away with aN signboards. “By limiting the possi- ble location of sign boards to private. ly owned property large number will be done away with. A heavy tax will force the owners to remove the remaining few,” they say. Large ale of signs are even now eling the pressure of public opin- | fon, it i ty and are voluntarily re- moving their advertisements of this ‘ype. It is to be expected that a few panies will take advantage of the scarey of billboards thus brought “about to erect many, more for the: elves.

IMPROVEMENT IN NORTHWEST TOLD COOLIDGE Cor Jaffray, Head of Soo Lines, Reports. on Trip Through North Dakota FINANCES ARE BETTER Washington, Aug| 14.—Marked im- provement {s noted in conditions in the Northwest due to increased yields and. better prices, Cc, 7. Jaffr: i is, hea of the Agricultural Credit corpora- tion, told President Coolidge yes- terday, says a special dispatch to the Minneapolis Tribune. fray visited the White House with Eugene Meyer, Jr., managing direc- tor of the War Finance corporation, who gave the President some infor- mation relative to agricultural con- ditions in the Central West. Actual changes for the better, Mr. Jaffray said, hadtaken place in Min- nesota and the Dakotas witph pros- pects for still better times. Speaking of the North Dakota depression of last year Mr. Jaffray said it was not exactly a wheat situation as gener- ally regarded but the lack of a wheat situation. Not only was the wheat price low last year but the yield fell so short of the average as to increase greatly the cost per bushel. North Dakota Crop Good With less acreage this year, the President was told, North Dakota will have a much larger production { to sell at the higher price. . ‘The South Dakota situation was deserib- ed as somewhat different, due to the fact that South Dakota has a much larger production of corn than of wheat with « crop that is fair this year. The South Dakota wheat crop was ulso said to be a good average one, Mr. Jaffray was guarded in his statement as to the South Dakota corn crop, pointing out that danger to this crop, such as unduly early frosts, is not past, but he could see no reason for anything but optimism at this time. The credit situation in the Northwest, he said, had eased considerably. President Coolidge was especially pleased at the message from Mr. Jaffray that diversification has been making rapid strides in the North- west. Cattle and sheep of the best strains are being brought in by farmers who have seen the mistake of depending too much upon the| single crop of wheat. Mr. Coolidge, it will be recalled, urged a special message to Con- gress that aid be given by the gov- ernment to farmers who stood ready to diversify. The legislation which he desired was incorporated in what was known as the Norbeck-Burtness bill. The bill was defeated in the Senate but the Agricultural Credit corporation of which Mr. Jaffray is the head is understood to have un- dertaken and* accomplished; imuch work along the line proposed by that measure. Mr, Meyer, who has been on the cific coast for a month, was able to add much of an encouraging na- ture to the Jaffray report. He spoke especially of the Central West, how- ever, where he said that the wha-+ crop is probably above the average and, like in the. Northwest, produced or @ reduced acreage. The War Finance corporation, of which he is the head, has $25,000,000 loaned in Minnesota, North Dakota, South Da- kota and Montana, and he said re- ports indicated that agriculture out Mr. Jaf-'this year been very sever B ocratic presidential nominee, went back to Clarksburg, W.

ROOT DISEASES IN WHEAT SAID TO BE SEVERE Seedling or Root Diseases Particularly Severe on the Durum Wheat Crop WHAT EXPERT SAYS Fargo, N. D., Aug. 14.—Wheat root diseases have been very severe this year, according to H. L. Bolley of the North Dakota Agricultural cal- loge, who has issued the following statement: “During the last days of July an the first few days of August, wheat rust has developed quite rapidly, so agricultural | that in very late fields there will probably be considerable shriveling by rust. Farmers must understand that not all the shriveling that oc- curs in this coming crop may be at- tributed to rust. “The seedling or root diseases have especial- ly in many durum varieties. From the samples which have been sent in to my office from various parts of the state it is apparent that the root and seed diseases known as_ scab, which is caused by a fungus belong- ing to the same order as that which causes flax wilt, has again brought about a very considerablé amount of damage in some fields, lants die early as if destroyed at the root when afflicted with this disease. When they are pulled up by the root it will be found that the roots are dead just as in the case of flax when it wilts. Some fields of durum show a rather high percentage of these dead or partially dead stools and from these there will come a very considerable amount of light- weight shriveled grain. In some parts of the state a similar root blighting disease known as Helmin- thosporium has also. caused some rotting or dying ‘of the plants. “These root and seed diseases form one of the chief reasons why farmers should conduct a carefully planned crop rotation so that wheat will not follow wheat on the same lands for a number of years. All seed which is used should be graded to the most plump, hard, bright colored stuff, and before it is, sowed on the clean land it should be treated thoroughly with FTWO PIONEERS OF BISHARCK DIE IN WEST James R. Gage and Mrs. Don- nelly Taylor, Both Well” Known, Succumb HERE IN EARLY DAYS Mr. Gage Came to Bismarck in 1883, and Mrs. Taylor Was Here in 1875 James R, Gage, aged 84, a pioneer Bismarck resident, died in San Diego, California, yesterday at the age of 84 years, according to a telegram re- ceived today by The Tribune from Harriett M. Gage, his widow. Mr. Gage, who had made his home in San Diego for some years, was one of the early settlers and pioneer business men of Bismarck. Born and reared in Pennsylvania, he came to Steele, Kidder county, in 1882 and they came on to Bismarck in 1883, during the boom here. He engaged in the real estate business most of his business career and was also a lawyer, but did not practice. He al/ so was interested in banking. Mr. Gage acquired extensive inter- n Burleigh county, and four or five sections of land are still in his name. Much of his Bismarck pro- perty he disposed of. Mr. Gage left Bismarck about 1905, but had returned several times on visits. He was a veteran of the Civil War, having served with a Pennsyl- vania unit in the Signal Corps of the Union Army. A widow and one daughter, Mrs. Florence Sabot, survive, es' MRS. TAYLOR'S DEATH Mrs. Carrie Donnelly Taylor, a pioneer of Bismarck, who first resid- Led ‘here nearly fifty years ago, died Jast night at her home in Sumner, Washington, according to a message received today by Miss Aldyth Ward. Mrs. Taylor had been very nervous, according to Bismarck friends who L¥isited her at Sumner this last spring, but they had not been informed of ny serious illness. * Mrs.:Faylor, was prominently iden: tified with the growth of Bismarck. She was very much interested in the McCabe Methodist church, and gave the church $5,000 with which to pur- chase the pipe organ it has installed. Mrs. Taylor owned a great deal of property in Bismarck, "In 1875 she was married to Joseph Dodge, who was killed a year later by Indians while driving cattle to the, Black Hills region, according to friends here, and a few years later she married Frank Donnelly, who was foreman of the Dodge ranch.” Later Mr. Donnelly became sheriff of Bur- leigh county. He died about 1905. Mrs, Taylor had lived in the west at intervals for several years, having gone to Sumner about 1900, and about four years ago she was married to Edward Taylor in San Diego, Mr. Taylor dying two years ago. Mrs. Taylor would have been 70 years old August 28, according to Mrs. J. P. Dunn, She was born in southern Minnesota. Mrs. Mary McLean, who visited Mrs. Taylor in Sumner last spring, said she had just acquired a new house, so that she might be better able to entertain friends, and that the negotiations with reference to this house seemed to make her very nervous. ALR. MURRAY I$ VICTIM OF STROKE HERE the formaldehyde treatment just as one treats for smut. “Great care should be exercised this harvest to select seed from fields not budly affected by scab. If some scab is present care should be taken to have the seed which is to be sav- ed for sowing purposes harvested dry, threshed and stored dry, so that the scab fungus may not penetrate the bran layers of the seed, which makes treatment ineffective.” 15 MILLIONS ARE EFFECTED IN BIG FLOODS Estimate of Death in China Now Is Placed at 15,000 By.

GIRLS FOUND IN BIG PARK’ Refugees From Other Cities Found in Central Park, New York New York, Aug. 14.—A sprained ankle threw Jean Koski of Cleve- land into the ‘arms of a Central park patrolman and led to the dis- covery of a “port of missing girls Twenty destitute maidens—run- aways from homes in other cities— lived, according to Jean, in a shelt- ered cavern in the heart of the huge park, keeping house as do hoboes jin a typical tanktown “jungle.” Police prepared to conduct Jean to the spot she described in a search for girls who have been re- ported missing here and in other cities. Weeping and stumbling along, Jean ran into the arms of the pa- trolman after sunrise today. A man had invaded the rock-strewn dell which served as dining room, bath and boudoir for herself and her wayfaring companions, said the girl. The man had chased her, and she had sprained an ankle. Magistrate Levine heard the rest of the story. Jean and Francis’ Mack, both 17 years old, and tele- phone operators at Cleveland, quit their jobs, pooled their savings and came to the metropolis. After a week in Manhattan they were broke. Another girt, also broke, told them of the “jungle” tucked away in Central, park, in the heart of Manhattan, where thousands of people recreate every day. The girls moved in, with their baggage. The baggage disappeared the first night, but the girls didn’t care. They laundered the clothes they wore in a drinking fountain near the “jungle.” SWISS.

The defense almost immediately demanded that Dr. Patrick recount the details of the kidnaping and murder of young Robert Franks and the tale previously told many times consumed a large part of the morning session. .W.W.

PRICE FIVE CENTS | CABINET HOLDS MEETING WHEN PARLEY FAILS Declared in Berlin That Dele- gates Stand for Early, Complete Evacuation CRISIS IS REACHED Americans Are Called in To Help Reach Compromise Between French, Germans Berlin, Aug. 14.—(By the A, P.)—~ President Ebert presided at an ex- traordinary session of the cabinet convoked at 7:30 o'clock this morn- ing to discuss the situation which had arisen in London because of the failure of the French and German delegates at the international confer~ ence in London to agree on a time limit for the military evaucation of the Ruhr. An official bulletin was given out saying members of the cabinet were in full accord with the attitude taken by the German delegates in London. The latest serious developments at the London conference are commented on by all the Berlin newspapers, which, without exception, agree that a crisis has been reached on the question of the military evacuation of the Ruhr. It is generally agreed also that there seems to be little or no hope of compromise unless the French make concessions for, it is stated, it is utterly impossible for Germany to make concessions. There is no doubt whatever, it is generally conceded, that the govern- ment would have support of all poli- tical parties in refusing to agree to inything short of complete evacua- tion at an early date, and that it is prepared to face the consequences, however heavy, of such a refusal. The Berlin press. emphasizes its contention that the Ruhr occupation has always been illegal and that if the French now show an unwilling- ness to evacuate the area, it would prove clearly to the world that the French policy still aims not at achieving an understanding and friendly relationship with Germany but as a perpetuation of district and ill-feeling between the two nations. CONFERES WORRIED London, Aug. 14, (By the A. P.) —The deadlock between the French and the Germans on the question of the time limit for the military evacuation of the Ruhr is imperil- ling the success of the international conference, it was indicated today after a hurried meeting of the English, French, Belgian and Ger- man premiers at Downing street this mcrning had failed to provide tangible results. Delegates at the conference hope and expect, however, that Ameri- can and British intervention will save the program which the allies have agreed upon for instituting the Dawes reparation plan. After the meeting between Prem- ier Herriot of France, Premier Theunis of Belgium and Chancellor Marx of Germany, which lasted about 20 minutes, American ambas- sador Frank B. Kellogg and Ameri- can representative, James Logan, Jr., rushed to the American’ em- bassy and joined Owen D. Young and the other American experts on the Dawes plan to consider what action they might take to solve the new complication. The Germans returned to their hotel, and directed cables to Ber- lin which carried the news of the unfavorable turn of the conference to the members of the German cab- inet at the other end of the wire. After a brief German cabinet meet- ing, negotiated by cable, Chancel- lor Marx and Foreign Minister Stresemann, returned to Downing street. After his return to his hotel M. Herriot said. “The allies are with us and we are in complete control of the sit- uation.” FARM CHANGE IS REVEALED Cream Receipts on Increase in Sioux County Ft. Yates, N. D., Aug. 14.—Sta- tistics of township assessors in Sioux county show a-big change in farming has taken place. The sale of cream has _ nearly equalled the receipts from the sale of livestock in this county, long almost a purely livestock cou! The abstract of. the SOrs shows 249,432 pounds of cream sold, and 27,743 pounds of butter made in families. Receipts from the sale of livestock totalled $108,731, The assessors’ figures also show the combined flax and corn acres age this year is only 5,000 acres. short of the total wheat acreage. Nearly twice as much flax and “corn, is grown this year as last, while the wheat acreage was cut almost one- third. More oats and y were sown, but the rye crop was but about 25 percent of the previous year. . - Inland holidays are preacribed for sleeplessness,
