.ROUMAn|AN STRIFE
CONTINUES TO SPREAD.
Rising Among Peasants Is
Declared of Anarchistic
Character
FIGHTS WITH TROOPS
Organized Bands March on
Villages That Are Not
Well Protected

BUCHAREST, Roumania. March "a
order has been restored In the Dorogoi
district, but the disorders have spread
to other places and further reinforce
ments are being sent into Moldava.
According to Government reports,
every effort has been made to suppress
the disorders without bloodshed and
few persons have been killed or in
jured.
According to newspaper reports, fur
ther disorders occurred today at Bur
duoueni and Panciu. in the district of
Putna- Two peasants were killed and
many were wounded.
At Darabani. In the Dorohoi district.
the estate Of former Minister Lascar
was plundered.
In the opinion of the Roumanian
Government the rising of the peasants
in Moldevia is more of an anarchistic
character than anti-Semitic. In reply to
requests for statement upon the sub
ject today. Finance Minister Ionescu is
sued the following note:
The present regrettable movement is not only
OF an ntisemite, but aisG % OF an sgTsrian ana
both owners and tenants. have been destroyed.
The Government has taken all possible measures
TO cope with the movement, which must now be
regarded more as an anarchistlc campaign than
anything else.
According to the latest advices re-
ceived here, the movement is spreading
southwark. Bands of peasants in the
Brahilov and Buzeu districts. mostly
armed with cudgels, are marauding
over the farms. threatening the pro-
prietors with death unless they ameli-
crate the conditions of work.
In the Bacau, Vaslui and Roman
districts the peasants are we'll or
ganized Most OF them have served
in the army and they have formed
themselves into companies and regi-
ments under officers, and are plunder-
ing small towns and villages wherever
there is not a sufficient number of
troops to overawe them, without dis
tinction as to nationality. In several
instances the farmers and land own
ers have yielded to the demands of the
peasants and the riots have ceased.
In the attack made by the peasants
on troops at Blegesti. in the Bacau
district, which resulted in fourteen of
the attackers being killed, the peas
ants seized Colonel Coltzer, who was
in command of the troops, and locked
him up in the house of the public
prosecutor, which they were preparing
to burn when the troops dispersed
them.
A serious encounter between the
troops and peasants has occurred at
the small town of Misaileni, near the
Bukovina frontier in tie district of
Dorohoi. Many peasants were killed
during the lighting.

BUFORD To CARRY FOOD
To FAMINE SUFFERERS
Big Army Transport Will
Proceed to China With
Relief Stores

WASHINGTON, March 23.-The army
transport Buford will leave San Fran
cisco about June s with a quantity of
relief stores for the sufferers from
famine in China. There was some
question whether this could be legally
accomplished, but 1t was found that
the use Of a transport to convey relief
under such circumstances is in con-
formity to precedent. and will con-
stitute under the existing condition
of emergency lawful and proper use
of a vessel of the transport fleet. She
will proceed to Shanghai and recoal
after discharging the supplies intend
ed for the famine sufferers and will
continue on to Manila, and return to

W|RE-WOUND COAST GUNS
MEETING WITH FAVOR
Tests at Sandy Hook Show
That Pattern to Be
Superior

WASHINGTON, March 23.-The pro-
posal has been made to the War De-
partment to have the first of the new
14-inch guns that are to replace the
12-inch guns for the coast defense ar
mament built on the wire-w wound prin-
ciple instead OF being of the built-up
type. This is the direct result of the
tests which have been going on at
Sandy Hook between the Crozier and
Brown guns of the wire-wound pattern.
The demonstration has been quite con-
elusive and added to that fact Is the
adoption of the type by the English
some years ago. 1t Is thought that
the 14-inch gun may be very profitably
of the wire-wound type. One of that
caliber would weigh no more than
does the present built-up 12-inch gun.
1t is expected that Ssn Francisco's 5
defenses would be among the first to
be equipped with 14-inch guns.

TOULON, March 23.-Another panic

than 100 men lost their lives through
an explosion recently. A large number
of workmen were engaged yesterday
in removing the boilers of the ship
when an electric wire. becoming short
circuited, caused violent shock and
flash of flame. The men wildly
scrambled for refuge from what they
regarded as the repetition of the

NAVY DEPARTMENT ABOUT

Less Than Last Year

WASHINGTON, March 23.-The Navy
Department is about to buy the an
nual supply of butter for the service,
amounting this year to 100000 pounds,
which is $4,000 pounds less than the
amount purchased last year. There is
a quantity of timed butter on hand, so
IT is possible to purchase less for the
next year. There is a departure from
the usual practice in that the contrac-
tor will be paid for his butter when 1t
is placed in storage at designated
warehouses at such central points as

IN The MATTER OF SECURING
PRESBYTERIAN COLLEGE.
OTHER CITIES IN The fight
Oklahoma City, Wynewood and Mus
kogee Are Making a Strong Bid
For the institution, AS We'll
AS Ardmere..

The citizens Of Ardmore are begin
ming to awaken to the fact that there
is a bare possibility Of this city Sc
curing the establishment Of Pros
byterian College at some point in
in the state. and that Ardmore Is
being considered, although few are
taking any interest In the matter The
Commercial Club as body has not
as yet awoke to the fact and have
taken no steps to secure the institu-
tion. The Presbyterian church Of this
city owing to the peculiar condition
of affairs. can take no steps I'm the
matter The pastor. Rev. Weith Is a
member of the board and the church
in this city is hardly strong enough
financially to bear all of the burden
to secure the same The institution
will be non-donominational. although
It Is under the control of that de
nomination A prominent member of
the local Presbyterian church stated
this morning that II was out of the
question for the members OF the To-
cal church to take any interest in the
matter and raise money although one
or two have signified their intention
o fbuing willing to donae a site for
the institution, and several have sig.
inifiud their further intention Of being
milling to donate sums of money rang
ing from $1,000 to $500.
One Of the competitors for the in
stitution is Wynnewood and the citi-
zens of that thriving village are max
ing grand effort and a sacrifice to
secure its establishment.
VIII Ardmore lay down on the prop
ositlon, or will she be in the fight to
secure It, Oklahoma City is also max
ing a bid and the commercial club of
that city has appointed committee
to get to work to raise funds looking
toward securing the institution.
Ardmore needs the institution and
the institution needs Ardmore, but like
every other enterprise 1t is not com.
ing here without an effort being made
TO secure the same.
The city is growing and will per.
haps continue to grow, but while we
are making a slow growth other cities
like Muskogee and South McAlester
are making a fight for enterprises and
doing something to secure them.
During the past year few men
have taken on their shoulders to do
all of the work and make the rich
man richer in the city while the rich
man and few others are laying back
saying, sic en-. boys but when ap'
preached to donate or join the club
refuse to do so.
A gentleman stated this morning
that within three days time sufil
cient amount Of money could be rails
ed to secure the institution.
