ASKS FOR $500, 900.

Senator Hansbroush Asks for 100000
{ for the Continuation Of Work at
Fort Lincoln. .g s Z. :.@ sssi5s.5 ~.
Washington, April 81. -, Senator
Hansbrough Of North Dakota yester-
day morning appealed to the president
to lend his influence toward securing
for Fort Lincoln some $1,000
The fort, says Senator Hansbrough,
is sadly in need of the funds, and as
the war department has some 5000
900 to be disbursed in this way, he
feels that Fort Lincoln should I'M
doubtedly come in for so modest q
share. S. ... .s (. ;s..
The president assured Senator
Hansbrough that he matter would re-
ceive his earnest attention. 1

The refusal of the circuit court to
permit the Hartman interests to in
tervene in the Northern Securities
case is probably not the conclusion of
the efforts Of those interests to secure
control of the Northern Pacific but
it illustrates the first attempt and
suggests that others may be as use
less, says the Pioneer Press. The
court does not, it is true, pass On the
merits of either the Hartman or the
Northern Securities method OF dis
tributing the assets of the Securities
company, but merely points out that
it has not assumed custody of the
stock and did not assume in its decree
to dictate the method Of distribution;
that the decree merely restrained the
Northern Securities company from do
ing certain things with the stock; that
the purpose of those restraints was
to force the distribution Of the shares
and that while it had indicated that
the decree was not to be considered
as prohibiting the return of the North
ern Pacific and Great Northern shares
to the original holders, that part of
the decree was permissive, not manda-
tory. The court also points out that
the Hartman interests cknnot pre-
sumo to intervene on behalf Of the
public interests; that the United States
which instituted the original suit
represents the public and has ex-
pressed itself as opposed to the inter
vention of Hartman and that presum-
ably the United States feels entirely
able to protect the public by new
suit in case any plan of distribution
| decided ON by the Northern Securities
company seems to be in contravention
| OF the antitrust law or any other
laws. Finally the court points out
that while it will not allow the Harri-
man interests to intervene, those in
terests still have a remedy through an
action brought in some state caurt
/ 1t also refuses to pass upon the con
tentions as to the effect Of either
method OF distributing the stock, OF
the ground that these are disputed
/ questions to be determined only or
the presentation Of evidence.

~ of1cials were asked to investigate.
Arnold Diestman. farmer Of the
same vicinity, met Posey driving his
team toward home and saw bundle
In the wagon box that looked like q
man rolled up. When omcers visited
the farm, blood-stained bed quits
were found, but 1t was explained that
freshly butchered hogs had been laid
On the quilts. & .Ssz 1$ ss
After two weeks absence Posey re-
turned, visited around Lawton, and
even went to Devils Lake, the county
seat, and called upon Sheriff Rutten,
making what was asserted to be a sat
isfactory statement in regard to Shan
mons disappearance. No further ac-
ton was ever taken in the matter.
Shortly after the affair Mrs Posey
dropped word or two which cast
suspicion upon her husband. To sew
eral persons including A. J. Gronna of
Lakota, she said she did not dare
to tell anything, or Posey would kill
her. 5.sEzss. ,sE :
Over a month ago Posey left osten-
sibly for Canada, giving out his desti-
nation and since that time nothing
whatever has been heard of him.
Neighbors and residents Of Lawton,
feeling that q crime had been com
mitted, made thorough investigation
Of the premises after Mrs. Posey's
departure, with the result that Shan
mons body was found under the barn.
It is believed that Posey and Shan
non quarreled over the amount Of
money due the latter shortly after
leaving Lawton, and that Posey killed
Shannon at that time. The body was
then wrapped in the bed, clothing,
which was used as robes, and taken
back to the farm and buried. It was
the body Of Shannon that was seen
by Diestman and q companion: .s
Wounds on the body indicate that
Shannon was pounded to death. The
skull was frctured and the features
hammered to pulp. The body also
showed numerous bruises, as If Shan.
non had been kicked. Owing to the
continued cold weather the body was
4 in good state of preservation.

CONFERENCE OF LIBERIANs
1t is Proposed to Put an End to thu
War Between Tribes.

The charge d'affaires Of the United States
legation at Monrovia, Liberia, reports to
the State Department, under date of Au-
gust 3, that conference was held at Mon
rovia, during the first week of August, be-
tween the president and other Liberian Of
ficials, on the one side, and eighteen of the
native kings and chiefs on the other, for
r the purpose of putting an end to wars
among the tribes in the interior of the
country.
All the kings and chiefs took solemn oaths
to keep the peace, to report all grievances
to the Liberian government, to obey that
government and to carry out the judgment
Of the president of Liberia.
Among the results Of the conference are
the following:
At least once a year all the kings and
chiefs must meet in Monrovia to devise
plans for the improvement and development
Of the interior; certain schools are to be
established in the interior for the instruc-
ton of the native in his own environment;
no government officer is to bring any native
man from the country without first going
to the chief of the tribe to which the man
belongs; the matter of prohibiting the
shipping out of the country of boys, who
constitute the laboring force of the in
terror, Is to be urged before the next legis-
lature Of Liberia, and messengers of the
chiefs are to be identified and made known
to the government officials in Monrovia.
The President of Liberia has appointed
three commissioners to hear and determine
all matters arising among the tribes in
the war-ridden section.
The charge expresses the belief that this
conference will result in the establishment
of peace and the development of the in
terror of Liberia.

w. & L. $500 "Peerless"
Shoe for Women.

Attention is called to several lines
for fall now on display. New shapes
and styles will arrive weekly in
weights for late fall and winter.
Structural features heretofore as
ISOLATED with high prices and hardly
to be secured at any price are in
cluded in this Shoe, which is truly
the embodiment of all that is beau
tiful, comfortable, serviceable, eco
nomical and satisfying as covering
for woman's foot. A more beauti-
full shoe, a more stylish shoe, more
comfortable shoe or more perfect
shoe cannot be made at the price.
The element of shapeliness has not
been overlooked in the designing of
this shoe and perhaps its most no.
ticeable feature is the fact of its
making any foot look we'll, whether
the foot is large or small. There is
more in this than may at first ap-
pear, for it shows the true fitting
quality, which can only come
through the most perfect drauglit-
ing and scientific modelling.
To construct a shoe with plenty
of room is an easy task; but leave
room where room is needed and
take it away where it is superfuous !;
to furnish, in other words, glove
fit" and have the shoe perfectly
comfortable, is the combination of
science and art that exists in the
Peerless" Shoe. Every proportion
of this shoe is in harmony with
every other proportion, and beauty
of contour with perfect comfort
is the result, as we'll as better
| wearing qualities and the pre-
serving of the shape of the shoe
until it is worn out Many shoes
are soon distorted, twisted, run over
and rendered unsightly by reason of
| improper modelling of the lasts and
unscientific draughting of the pat
terms for sole and upper. The
Peerless" is a marked exception
and its various styles furnish per-
feet fitting shoe for every type of
foot; shoes that allow freedom of
action to every point and muscle
! and unrestrained circulation in ev-
cry vein.
