U.$, REJECTION F INVITATION | (Continued from Page One) Iikelfhood, it was declar: j Ls is} cw th tle Hague. SURPRISE EXPRESSED bY ITALIAN MINISTER. Gc ated Press).—Foreign Minister: Sc zer, of Italy, on learning today that the United States would not join the Proposed commission on Russian af-| fairs at The Hague, expressed great| surprise, especitlly mt tha rapidity with which a decision was taken which may have great influence on the further discussions at Genoa. Great disappointment at the Amer can decision was expressed generally in conference circles, as the belief had gradually been forming here that the United States was ready now to join the other powers in dealing with Rus- sian economic questions. When the news of the. American de imation got abroad it becames at ones the topic of the day, forming the principal subject of discussion in all jou the conference delegations. The opin- jon” generaNy expressed was that|@ American absence from The Hague might kill that meeting. It was remarked that the govern ment at Washington in refusing the. imvitation to join the mixed commts- sion at The Hague implied a belief that the powers would be confronted! there with the same insurmountable| difficulties as at Genoa, and that therefore other means must be found for solving the Russian problem, as well as meeting the dangerous Euro- Peon political and economic situation. A leading delegate said today: “I cannot see why, in a month's time, it should be possible to solve at The Hague through a commission of| experts the problems which the states men plenipotentiaries and the experts together failed to solve here.” FRANK CANNER TAILOR SHOP AT OL) STAND Frank Canner, well known custom tailor of Casper, is back at his old stand on South Center street after be- ing out of it for eight months.

BIGCRATERIS | BLOWN OUT BY GAS PRESSURE hundred feet across was blown out early today at the Mildmurphy gas ‘well ten miles north of El Dorado and the gas from it and all other centers in the vicinity was ignited. Several smaller craters were fired last night| within a radius of 200 yards but the main well, estimated to be making 75,000,000 cubic feet of gas a day did not catch fire until the hugo crater was blown out today. All hope of ex- tinguishing the blaze has been aban- doned. The roar of the flames can be heard for miles. The well blew in Sunday night while the drill stem was being removed. The derrick and machinery at the mouth of the well were destroyed and the drilling crew barely, escaped. Num- erous geysers began forming and gas began seeping into all the water wells in the vicinity. One of the geysers near the well was ignited last night by friction and fire soon spread to other small craters. It was from these burning craters that the large crater formed this morning. feviobee in SP nee “Help the Near East Relief Fund.
