time he was in charge OF Sheriff
Douglas of Rolette county, who is TAX
Ing him to Rolla, where he will be
called upon to answer to q charge of
horse stealing.
Larron is a man with q history
which reads as luridly as that of Jesse
James and many other noted outlaws.
His career of crime covers a period of
six years and IL all the tales told of
him be true, includes numerous Of
lenses, such as horse stealing, several
clashes with officers of the law, and
some shooting. Those who read
The Times last spring will remember
that the Canadian authorities thought
to extradite him Immediately after his
release from the penitentiary at Bis
marck. In this they failed after con-
siderable litigation. but not until much
of the life history of the prisoner had
been brought out in the testimony.
Larron has been active on both sides
OF the international boundary and has
had many officials on his trail.
Horse stealing has been the princi-
pal occupation of Larron for several
years though he has committed other
crimes on the side, whenever it came
IN his way to do so, and Judging from
his record he is utterly disregardful
Of the laws of God and man. Larron's
first recorded appearance upon the
stage of publicity was in the summer
OF 1900, when he made OF with some
settlers in the northwestern part of
the state. The sheriffs of two Of the

WARM FOR RAILROADS.
Commissioner Lane Interviewed on Car
Shortage in Minnesota and
Daknfaa

Shortage In Minnesota and
Dakotas.
Associated Press to The Evening Times.
Washington, Dec. 4.-The car short
age throughout the United States will
be investigated by the interstate COM
merce Commission. Franklin X. Lane,
who has been looking into the subject,
said today that the commission will
take up the situation in the northwest
first. Agents are now in the section
investigating complaints against the
wheat Carrying roads. Farmers in many
states have reported that the railroads
are preferring other traffic and that
they are unable to get their grain to
market in time to share in the high
prices now being paid in Minneapolis
and Chicago.
The commission has issued a circu-
lar asking the grain growers to sub
NIT specific information regarding the
amount of freight offered for shipment
and the reasons given for not trans
porting the same. Commissioner Lane
said:
THE most serious problem which
faces the shipping public today is
that of getting traffic moved. There
are millions of tons Of freight awaiting
shipment at the present time In the
United States which the railroads con-
fess themselves unable to promptly
handle. Whether there is an actual
car shortage or not is a question that
only full inquiry can determine; but
that there is fault to be found with
the manner in which cars are used
seems to be generally conceded by
all traffic men.
I'm the northwest the farmers of the
Dakctas and Minnesota have filled the
elevators along the lines of the rail-
roads and are stacking their wheat in
great bins twenty or thirty feet deep
and covering an acre or more of
ground. At the same time there is
ample room for all of this wheat in the
terminal elevators at Chicago, MIL
waukee, Minneapolis, Duluth and Su-
pariOr.
