One bomb was said to have fallen on the frontier headquarters of Gen- eral Sung Chen-Yuan, miltary gov- ernor of Chahar, inflicting heavy damages. General Sung’s troops were re- ported in the Rengo dispatches to have suffered many casualties in re- sisting the advance of a Japanese column, with “numerous killed” in a battle Wednesday. ‘The Japanese casualties were listed as one sergeant killed and two offi- cers wounded. Several obscure vil- ages were reported to have been occu- pled by the Japanese troops, but the dispatches did not indicate on which side of the border they were situated. The Japanese war office, mean- while, continued its assertions that the reports of aerial bombings were incorrect. The activities of Japanese planes in the area, a spokesman said, were confined to reconnoitering, while | troop movements were concerned merely with watching the withdrawal of Chinese forces, The Japanese command was said to have expressed its determination to “deal drastically with Sung Chen- Yuan as long es he manifests hostil- ity to Japan and Manchukuo.” SMUGGLING METHODS RELATED 10 COURT Story of Chasing Truck Through Burke County Told in Trial of Dillage Minot, N. D., Jan. 24.—()—A story of pursuit in Burke county of a wool- laden truck, early on the morning of July 7, 1933, which continued for sev- eral miles until federal customs offi- cers shot the tires of the machine, is being unfolded in federal court in Mi- . Quam, | not ‘hureday in the trial of Lee Dil- lage, Lignite, charged with smuggling wool from Canada into the United States. 4 Two different alleged smuggling of- fenses are set forth in the indictment on which Dillage is being tried, the dates of which are set as July 7, 1933, and in June, 1934. Dillage is being tried before a jury of 11 men, both the prosecution and the defense having stipulated that this is satisfactory, after the entire regular panel of 32 jurors had been exhausted Wednesday, and there was still one empty chair in the jury box. The defense exercised nine of its 10 peremptory challenges, and the gov- ernment used four of its six. The jurors are: Elling Tweet, Velva; F. J. Beese, Starkweather; Theodore Emery, Gardner; Ed. Nystrom, Shey- enne; Clyde Gillet, Hamar; G. A. Overback, Glenfield; Albert J. Sorum, Hillsboro; John Higgins, Hannah; M. N. Loesch, Melville; Felix Conrath, Beulah, and P. G. Glemming, Mel- ville. At the request of United States Dis- | trict Attorney P. W. Lanier, Judge \ Andrew Miller ordered that all wit- {nesses for the government and the specified by each side, should remain out of the courtroom until they are called to testify. Also, during the trial, at the order of Judge Miller, the jury is to remain in the custody of bailiffs at all times, this being the second cccasion in the time that Judge Miller has sat on the bench that he has put a jury in charge of bailiffs, the other time being the Langer trial at Bismarck, MASSACRE CHARGE MAY FACE CAPONE Gang Leader Now in Alcatraz Prison Named in Confes- ion by Bolton Chicago, Jan. 24.—(4@—Seven dead men, victims of the 8t. Valentine's Day massacre, cast a shadow Thurs- day over the possible fate of Al Capone. From the graves where they have lain since 1929, the victims of Chi- cago’s bloodiest crime were said in \Teports published here to be the most serious threat to the former gang- lord's safety since his conviction on @ federal income tax evasion charge. It was stated that Byron Bolton, held in St. Paul and charged with a part in the Bremer kidnaping, had confessed as “finger man” for the mass slaying and had named the actual slayers, listing five names familiar in underworld haunts. Though U,. 8. government officials were quick to deny they were in pos- session of a confession, it was said federal officers were hopeful of trac- ing those seven murders down to the original public enemy No. 1—Al Capone, now in Alcatraz prison. The report quoted Bolton as at- tributing the massacre to henchmen hired by Capone to protect his in- terests in a Lyons, Ill., dog race track after the George (Bugs) Moran gang and Frank Uale, New York and Chi- cago gangster, attempted to “muscle in” on the profits.

THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JANUARY 24, 1985 WAIVE UNITY IN MUNITIONS INQUIRY Senate Committee Investigat- ing Doubled Costs of U. S. Cruisers Washington, Jan. 24.—()—Clinton L. Bardo, former president of the New York Shipbuilding company, refused ‘Thursday to waive immunity for any “self incriminating” testimony given at the senate munitions hearing. Before announcing his refusal in a formal statement, he declared he did not desire to appear “antagonistic or offensive” to the senate. After asking Wednesday that he sign the waiver, the committee gave him 2¢ hours to consider. The request was not explained, but should he sign his testimony could be used if there were any subsequent criminal pro- ceedings. No longer head of the company whose affairs ure being investigated, Bardo nevertheless was summoned as the man who was president of the New York Shipbulding company dur- ing a period in which the committee fending the valuable Bolivian oil fields beyond Villamontes.
