ESTABLISHED 1873 BISMARCK, NORTH DAKOTA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1924 THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE [amano | PRICE FIVE CENTS ~COMPLETE GRAIN TIEUP THREATENS ~ FARMER POSSE HUNTS MORTON COUNTY FARMER MAN DECLARED INSANE HIDES AFTER ATTACK George Englehardt, Morton County Farmer, Said to Have Shot at Brother ALSO ATTACKS OFFICERS Claimed to Have Shot at Of- ficers From Basement Window Seeking Arrest Mandan, Oct. Armed with a high-powered rifle, a shotgun and a revolver, George Engelhardt, aged 38, farmer living five miles northwest of Hebron, was sought today by sheriff's posse augmented by farm- ers from miles around following his alleged attempted murder of _ his brother, Arthur, and his later alleg- ed firing upon constables who went to the farm to arrest him. Englehardt is believed to be men- tally unbalanced. Last Saturday he had an argument with his brother concerning thresh- ing work and shot at him with a rifle, it is said. Monday when offi- cers went to the farm to take him in custody he fired at them from a basement window. Tuesday officers from the county sheriff's office went to the farm to get him and Engle- hardt had appeared, He wa known to have taken three weapons mounted a horse, and gone to a point in the hills where a heavily provi- sioned automobile had been cached. He was followed to the Canadian borders, officers said on returning here last night. However, today Englehardt was reported to have been seen in the vi- cinity of Hebron and farmers from miles around joined in the hunt for the man. : A warrant has been issued for Englehardt’s arrest on a charge of attempted murder and one alleging him to be demented. SAY CARNEGIE CLAIM I$ JUST State Board Believes Valid Claim Exists Records which date back to 1902 are in the hands of the state board of administration, in reference to the claim of the Home Trust Com- pany of Hoboken, N. J., administra- tor of the estate of the late Andrew Carnegie, for $35,000 principal and ‘unpaid interest on a Joan said to have Rbeen made to the North Dakota In- jlustrial School and School for Man- ual Training at Ellendale. Suit has been entered in district court by the trust company to col- lect the sum, advanced in 1902 to build Carnegie Hall. While there has been some. ob- jection raised to the claim by some familiar with the transaction at the time, on the ground that it was un- derstood to be a gift, the state board of administration, according to mem- bers, feels that it is a valid cl and should be paid by the state. # legislature, it is claimed, has recog- nized the debt by paying interest un- til two years ago, when no appropria- tion was made for interest. The records of the board show that trustees in 1902 felt that the need of more room at the institution was imperative. The board of trus- tees, on April 8, 1902, adopted a re- solution to the effect that the loan would be repaid from revenues from interest and income upon lands set aside for the Ellendale institution. The lodn was made without legisla- tive authorization, this being ex- pected later. A letter in the files from the late T. F, Marshall, ed December 29, 1913, said Mr. Carnegie made the loan understanding it was not legal, but expecting the action vo yebe ratified. Fights Freedom For Slayers Chicago, Oct. 23.—Plans for a trust fund that may be used after his death to oppose any efforts to free Nathan Leopold, Jr., and Rich- ard Loeb, were announced by Ja- cob Franks, father of the boy they killed. “The murderers must never get freedom,” he declared. “A lenient governor, a shrewd lawyer, and in- different people—and their libera- tion would be the matter of only a short time, unless provision were made to combat any effort to get them out of Joliet. “I don’t know how long I shall live. During my life I will fight any move to defeat justice. After my death, the trust fund will be ay available.” Eskimos often develop a fondness for cigarets.

The Nonpartisan League headquar-| ters here and the Independent head- quarters at Fargo are directing a corps ‘of speakers in the state, and both sides are promoting intensive organization work. One of the bitterest fights being waged is in the Second Congression- al District, where Thomas Hall of Bismarck and Gerald Nye of Cooper- stown are competing for the short term in Congress, which will last un- til next March 4, and for the long term of two years commencing next} March 4.

For Coolidge Election He urged a continuation of the Coolidge administration both from the standpoint of Germany's recovery and as good business for the people of the Northwest. He declared that if the election were thrown into the house, that the foreign policy which jhas resulted in the Dawes plan would be tetarded ang that no one could foretell what would result. The Dawes plan as explained by Mr. Houghton sets up a_ credit through which Germany can function | economically*and work her way out. “In Germany he said,” they have the plants, the men and the great industrial organization but no capital. The Dawes plans provides this very necessary and essential factor Germany is to produce and move for- demnity. “Do the German people willingly support the Dawes plan? Mr. Hough- ton asked and answered: “It is my conviction that at least 85 percent of them do and possibly 90 percent of them do. Most of the German people pin their whole faith to the plan. It is supported by the Reichstag, all the major parties. My consuls in the various sections of Germany report from 75 percent to as high as 95 percent for the plan. Is A Sane Plan “And why should they not? It is a perfectly sane plan. It sets up a scheme of savings over a period of years and as Germany becomes pros- perous she can pay under it.

They were condemned to death on July 23 last for the murder of Hen- ley Clerox, chauffeur of the collection car of the Bank of Hochelaga. The quintet are: Louis Morel, ex Montreal detective and erstwhile athlete; Arthengiolo DiVicenzo Tony Frank, at one time a mast mind of Montreaf's “underworld Guisseppe Serafini, Frank Gambino and Mike Valentino. A sixth bandit, Leo Dauis, was condemned to die so but the production of new evi- dence caused his execution to oe postponed until November 6. Last minute attempts to save the murderers from the scaffold will be made in Ottawa tomorrow morning. With the exception of Morel, the murderers spent most of their time in prayer, Morel continues to en- gage in physical exercise in his cell. ONTARIO VOTES ON LIQUOR Toronto, Ontario, Oct. 23.---Voters of the province of Ontario today are balloting on the sixth referendum on the liquor question to be held in 300 years.

Arlington, Minn., Oct, 23.—(By the A, P.)—Eight bandits took posses- sion of Arlington early today, locked up the night patsolman, leisurely bla into the First State Bank vault and finally fled in two automobiles with $150 loot. Held at bay by occasional intimi- dating shots fired by the bandit out- posts, most of the village's popula- tion of 800 persons watched the out- laws’ operations from the vantage point of darkened windows or the shadows of outbuildings. During their operations at the bank the bandits kept the town marshal and two railroad station attaches locked in a refrigerator car and also kept a guard over the two night telephone operators, releasing their victims before they quit the town. Entering the town at 1:30 a. m. the bandits encountered the marshal, Harry MeGovern, father of John F. McGovern of Minnesota football fame, took from him his gun and marched him to the railroad yards, where they placed him in a refriger- ator car, leaving two men standing guard. Hold Operators Then six bandits went to the rail- road station where they cut the tel- egraph wires leading from the town and then entered the station, taking, in charge George McMason, the oper- ator, and his father. These two men were marched to the refrigerator car and joined Mar- shal McGovern in custody. Going to the telephone office the six bandits cut all outside wires and when the occupants of the office re- fused to open the door at their de- mand, they smashed it in, bursting in on the two terrified operators, Miss Mabel Sweeney and Miss Sylvia Geib. Population Hides Quieting the fears of the young women, the bandits told them to get back to bed as they would not be harmed, but they left one of their number to stand guard at the tele- phone office. The remaining five bandits then went to the First State Bank, pried open a rear window and_ entered. Several shots were fired skyward by the bandits as they left the outpost in front of the bank. FARMER GORED BY IRATE BULL Wife Drags Body of Husband Through Fence Jamestown, Oct. 23.—W. Greb, prominent farmer near Kensal, in northern Stutsman county, was gor- ed to death by a bull. He had gone ng longer than usual Mrs, Greb ‘ame uneasy and went in search of him. She found the bull stand- ing over her husband's body. She was able to beat the animal off a short distance, which enabled her to crawl through the fence and drag Mr. Greb through the fence. He died a few hours later. SCHOOL HOUSE IS BURNED Jamestown, N. D., Oct. 23.—Assist- ant County Attorney J. A. Jorgen- son called to the Clementsville district Tuesday to investigate the burning of a school house there and the apparent attempt to burn an- other. Mr. Jorgenson could find no clues to who was responsible for these acts nor learn of any reason. The one school house was burned to the ground and the other had been entered, all the windows broken, the desks turned upside down and many of the school books crammed into perance act passed in 1916 shall re- main in ‘effect. the stove, apparently with the in- {tention of burning. MONTANA INDIANS PLEDGE VOTES TO PRESIDENT COOLIDGE, DAWES Billings, Oct. 23.—The vote next month of the Indians of Montana— their first casting of the ballot— was pledged to Coolidge and Dawes last night in a dramatic declaration by the venerable chief, Plenty Coos, of the Crow nation, at a Republi- can meeting here, addressed by for- mer Governor Frank 0. Lowden of Minois, The vote of the Crows alone is about 1,600 with possibly a lesser number of Flatheads. Standing on the stage of the theater, surround- ed by lesser chiefs of the tribe in war bonnets and regalia of rank and authority and peering at their au- dience through the tribal smoked glasses, the Indians made their pledge through their aged chief. With the chiefs’ pledge went an appeal for honorable, honest cam- paigning and voting, the dignity of which stirred the audience to tre- mendous enthusiasm. to the barn to get the cows in andj EMBARGO MAY BE ISSUED IN NEXT 10 DAYS Terminal Elevators at Twin Cities and Duluth Are Said Near Filled SHIPMENTS ARE HEAVY Cooperation of Country Ele- vators in Holding Grain Is Asked Minneapolis, Oct. 23 stopping every grain car from mov- ing into Minneapolis or Duluth will ave to he within 10 days un- less country ippers cooperate by holding back their grain shipments, said a bulletin issued today by the Northwest Regional Advisory Board. i ts from the country es and Duluth con- the bulletin says, and —An embargo tinue daily, points out that the elevators will reach their capacity within 10 days if shipments continue at the present rate, Issuance of the bulletin followed a meeting of the board at Aberdeen when the joint terminal grain com- mittee was given power to do what- ever it sees fit to meet the emer- gency. P. J. Coleman, is chairman of the committee. Its first act was to make the appeal to shippers for cooperation, with the announcement of an embargo will follow if that fails. SEE EMBARGO COMING Frank Milhollan and W. C. Mc- Donnell, members of the North Da- kota Railroad Commission, who re- turned last night from Aberdeen, S. D. where they, with a number of Fargo and Grand Forks men attend- ed the meeting of the Northwest Regional Advisory Board, today con- firmed reports of the seriousness of the grain situation at terminals. The receipts of grain at the terminals in Minneapolis and Duluth far exceeds the outgoing grain, Mr. Milhollan said. The Great Northern and Soo lines furnished the meeting with the number of cars of grain en route to Minneapolis and Duluth and also the number being returned. It the present rate of shipments to the terminals continues the rail- roads would face a car shortage within 10 days, they said, because the cars are not being returned fast enough, and the terminal elevators are near the choking point. There is plenty of railroad equipment to move the grain, if the cars can be unload- ed and returned, Mr. Milhollan said. There may be a demand for grain at the terminal markets in the next 10 days which will make possible the avoidance of the embargo, he said, but it now looks as if it will come. The North Dakota men, Mr. Milhol- lan said, argued that if an embargo should come it should be sectional, and should not apply to northern North Dakota, where farmers are just getting into the midst of their threshing. They should have a chance to “catch up,” he said. This sectional embargo idea was voted down. There arg no country elevators choked in North Dakota, Mr. Milhol- lan said, because the railroads have been moving grain fast, Another feature, Mr. Milhollan | said, is that much of the grain now being shipped is wet, and railroads cannot hold it on cars long as it would heat and there would be great loss. So, if they can’t get it into ter- minals they cannot ship it. FOURSPEAKERS BILLED HERE Frazier, Sorlie, Thoresen, Sinclair to Speak Four speakers will appear in Bis- marck on Friday night, October 24, at 8 p, m. in a LaFollette Rally, it is announced.

TRIBUNE FINDS SPANISH WOMAN After other efforts to locate her, the Spanish Foreign Office, through the Spanish Vice-Consul at Chicago and Governor Nestos’ office, asked the newspapers to help find Mrs. Martina Saez Rueda in North Dakota. Two days after an item appeared in the Bismarck Tribune of the efforts to locate her, a letter was received at the Governor's office from a wo- man at Dickinson stating that she had read in The Tribune of the ef- fort, and that the woman sought was living with her.
