REPARATIONS GROUP STILL: IN DEADLOGK |atiz testis ao eet one Believed That None of the Ex, perts Wishes to Make First Settlement Move Paris, Feb. 20.—(#)—The repar- ations experts’ committee continued to mark time today, having reached @ deadlock on the methods of pro- cedure which it has been seeking since Monday. Brief communiques issued from the council room gave little indication of the reasons for the momentary paral- ysis of the work of the committee. Speculation consequently had a free hand and the principal suggestion made in reparation circles was that neither Germany nor any of the creditor nations was ready to make the first move toward final settle- ment.

CROATIA MURDERER EXECUTES HIMSELF Places Noose About His Neck and Calmly Kicks the Trap When Executioner Falters Zagreb, Croatia, Feb. 20.—(?)—Four | bandits were hanged here publicly today, one of them placing the rope around his neck and springing the trap himself when the executioner faltered. Murder, brigandage, and banditry were among the charges for which the four self-confessed murderers | went to the gallows. Their names were Krupopich, Urbanacz, Mrbancz and Prtich. All but one of the doomed men went to death stoically. The fourth began singing hymns and making grimaces at his companions in death. Later he became violent and had to be brought to the gallows forcibly. Executioner Hart and his assistant were completely. unnerved by the or- deal of hanging the three other mur- derers. They failed thrice in an at- tempt to adjust the noose around Urbanacz’s neck, whereupon the latter seized the rope-and brushed the exe- cutioners aside, saying: “Get out of here. Your hands and brain are frozen, let me complete the job my- self.” Then he placed the rope around his neck calmly and kicked the death trap himself. - House Votes to Kill Guaranty Fund Law Passage of the bill repealing the state guaranty of bank deposits law and passage of an appropriation of $5,000 each for the House of Mercy and St. John’s Orphanage, both at Fargo, marked the session of the North Dakota senate yesterday. Both bills were bitterly contested. The appropriation measure was espe- assembly. Both bills passed, the guaranty fund repeal, 38 to 9, and the appropriation bfll, 28 to 21. A companion measure to the guar- anty fund repeal bill also passed. It requires banks to establish with the state treasurer a fund for the pro- tection of depositors of the indivi- dual bank. Contributions to the fund are to be made by the bank on the basis of one-fifth of one per cent of the average daily deposits of the bank for the year. DIXON FUNERAL FRIDAY Funeral services for John George Dixon have been set for 2 o'clock THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE [ATTEMPTS MADE 10 EFFECT LARGE RAIL Other Lines; Van Swe-- ingen Asks Permit Washington, Feb. 20.—(#)—Two at- tempts to bring about huge scale railroad consolidations in eastern trunk line territory have been ini- tiated before the interstate com- merce commission. The first was that of the Baltimore and Ohio which yesterday asked the commission to approve steps it may take to expand its pre- sent system by the acquisition of a half a score of other trunk lines. The second came today and was made by the Van Sweringen inter- ests. Specifically the commission was asked to find that the public inter- est would allow the “grouping or uni- fication” of the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad, a main Van Sweringen stem, with the Erie, Nickel Plate, Pere Marquette and Hocking Valley sys- tems, all now Van Sweringen owned; while in addition should be added the Wheeling and Lake Erie, only partly Van Sweringen owned, and five lines now entirely independent, the Virginian, Lackawanna, Bes- semer and Lake Erie, Pittsburgh and Shawmut, and the Pittsburgh, Shaw- mut and Northern. Investment Over 2 Billions The single rail system to be thus created would operate roughly 13,000 miles of line, and would represent a capital investment of $2,500,000,000. Further the commission was asked to secure for such a huge enterprise the right to buy a one-fourth inter- est in the Delaware and Hudson, |New York Central and Peonsyivania ‘may advance more: or less diverging COMPANY MERGERS' Baltimore & Ohio Wants Ten} Lehigh and New England, Montour railroad, Pittsburgh, Chartiers and Youghiogheny, Chartiers Southern, Monongahela, Pittsburgh and West Virginia lines east of the Ohio, and the west side belt of Pittsburgh. The systems named were all treated as bridge or terminal properties, and it was suggested that the New York Central, Pennsylvania, and Baltimore and Ohio would also acquire a quar- ter interest in the properties. The Baltimore and Ohio requested permission to purchase the Buffalo, Rochester and Pittsburgh, the Detroit, Toledo and Ironton, the Chicago, In - dianapolis and Louisville, the Wabash, the Ann Arbor, and the Buffalo and Susquehanna railroads. It also asked permission for complete acquisiticn of the Western Maryland, the Read- ing, the Central railroad of New Jer- sey and the Lehigh and Hudson River. Will Lessen Speculation “The commission will determine to what extent the applicant may unify these properties into one system,” the Van Sweringen petition said. “The applicant believes it will remove rail- road properties in the eastern terri- tory from the field of speculation, bring about the financial stabiliza- tion of those railroads, and result in bringing into fruition the national Friday afternoon. Members of the Modern Woodmen will be the pall- bearers. The Rev. Walter E. Vater will be in charge and interment will be in St. Mary’s cemetery. MINOT MAN ELECTED Fargo, Feb. 20.—()—Rev. B. J.

Tod:v it holds the motor oil stage in the Middle West. The reason is spectacular. People buy Iso=Vis because it will not thin out — lubricates all the time — makes cars run better, amazingly better! This remarkable oil was not found ready made. The raw material came from the earth as crude oil. Then knowledge, skill and infinite patience were brought to bear on Nature's gift, and from this combination came Iso=Vis! They knew that none of the motor oils in exis- tence were quite satisfactory because they would all thin out quickly. They knew that you — that every motorist — needed a “constant viscosity” motor oil. They were told that it was impousible to produce one — but finally they succeeded.
