 Washington, Nov. 8.-The UDitee States has identified itself with tn Balkan situation and perhaps tho fi- nal settlement of the Turkish Gc@sclo,. by ordering today two UF is most powerful armofod cruisers, the Ten nesaee ana the Montana, from League Island, to Cons gtantineple. The dispatch Of these vessels is ] sharp onaGa.G.z G.z,ip. the policy announced heretofore by the State Department which gesd ta2 public to ht lieve that the six powera had sort of prescritive and treaty right to deal with the Turks.
 It was also noted today that the German ambassador called at the White House. This fact lent some color to the belief that the entente be tween Germany and the United States has been discussed at the White House and that the same sympathetic action might be expected iii Turkes as that on which Germany and the United States united in China.
 It is probable that one of the cruisers will go to Conatantinople and the other to Beruit where there IS An erican interest.
 Admiral Knight has Jeen in com mand of the squadron for Turkish waters.
 This indicates to some here snat tnt- Montana and Tennessee arc to be re inforced AS it is, each of these yes sels carries about 1000 sailors and Go marines.

Mont 2omcry, Ala, %ov. S.-TNo masked bandits held up southbound Louisville and Nashville passenger train No. [ at Blount Springs, Ala, early today, and after covering the two clerks with pistols, rausaeKcd tDe mail ear
 The robbers got off lne train at Boy les, a small station six miles north of Birmingham, after tying tne clerks to table in the mail ear. A report of the robbery was made to Postotficc Inspector l;rannon when tne clerks, James M Chamberlain and G. A. Hoover roth of Nashville, Tenn, reached Montgomery today. Tine po- lice of Birmingham were notified when the train passed through the city.
 According to Clerk Chamberlain, who was in charge of the car, the bandits were inexperienced, as they overlooked numerous small amounts of loose money that were enclosed in several envelopes which they opened and threw or the floor. The men first made their presence known just afte~ the train pulled out Of Blount Springs, where it is believed they entered thd mail car through the door opposite the station. They suddenly sprang from behind table and covered the tvo ! clerks with revolvers.
 Wanted Money.
 We are not going to hurt you; we want something to eat, said one ol the bandits to Clerk Chamberlain, who told him where he could find his lunch basket. The other robber then said:
 "No, we want money and he forced the clerks to lie down on the floor. The faces of the clerks were covered with empty mail sacks. | The exact amount Of money ana valuable packages taken by the ban- dits is unkne Wn at present. They cut open one registered package jacket, tearing the ends of the envelopes con- 1 tained loose bank nc:es which were left lying on the floor, then .nen seeHs- ing to be excited and in biz, hurry. One package opened contained sever- al thousand dollars worth of railroad stock coupons were scattered about the floor.
 After searching the packages the men were thoroughly dlsgusted, ac- cording to Clerk Chamberlain, and one of them took from Chamberlain about $5 which he had on his person.
 The robher then searched Clerk Hoover, securing valuable gold watch.
 The bandits then asked for Cham- berlain's watch, but later returned it to him.
 The bandits confined themselves ex- clusively to the mail car.
 Authorities both at Birmingham and Montgomery have been notified.

STORE ROBBED
AT PARAMOUNT

Fairmount, N. D.. May 27.-Robbers
entered the big store and helped them
selves to about 800 worth Of mems
pants and gloves. The pant were of
all sizes, 40 to so. the gloves, were high
priced buckskin.
Entrance was made through the
front door by key and the goods taken
out by the back door. The robber or
robbers lei to be we'll acquainted
with the big store and it is believed
by the proprietor, Mr.. Thompson. that
the store has been entered time and
again before and there is no telling
how much has been taken during
these visits.
Some of the goods were discovered
late Wednesday afternoon by Mrs. Joe
Clarke in her barn. She went to the
barn to look after her chickens and
noticed that an old table in the barn
had been moved, and on investigating
she discovered about 800 worth of the
goods stolen which have been identified
by Mr.. Thompson. Mr.. Thompson,
the proprietor, who took charge Of the
big store about April l. is going to get
rid Of lots of the goods he has in
stock, but he does not want to get
rid of them in that way-his way will
be to advertise a big bargain sale and
those who want the goods can get them
almost as cheap as stealing them and
in a more honorable way.

To FORM SEVEN
MORE LEAGUES
SECRETARY sLossoN or SLOPE
DEVELOPMENT LEAGUE IN
KlDDER COUNTY.

Bismarck, N. d.. May 27.--sec. j. b.
Siosson OF the Missouri Slope Devel-
opment league departed Saturday for
Steele. where he will perfect the organ
ization OF the Kidder county develop
ment league to be affiiiated with the
slope organization. A rouslng meet
ing of Kidder county enthusiasts Is
being held and the county league ex-
poets to accomplish a great deal in the
way Of exploiting the and
products of that thriving section OF
the commonwealth.
During the next twelve days Secre-
tary Slosson will organize six more
leagues in as many counties. On Mon
day, May "a, he will go to Napoleon
where Logan county boosters will form
an association. The following day,
Tuesday, May 2S, he will meet the Nc
Intosh county business men and boost
ers at Ashley for a similar purpose.
Thursday, May 80, a meeting is sched-
uled to be held at Linton in Emmons
county. Tuesday, June 4. Beach will
be the scene of the organization Of the
Billings county development league and
Wednesday, June 8, MI. Slosson will
go to Center in oliver county, where
another association viii be formed.
From Center he will proceed to Stan
ley in Mercer county on June 6, and a
rousing reception and gathering is
promised in this majestic county. The
Mercer county meeting was originally
scheduled for Friday, May "A, but the
fact that a term of court was on. pre-
vented many of the prominent attor-
neys, boosters and others interested in
some Of the sessions from being in at
tendance, was responsible for the
change in dates.
When these various organizations
are perfected there win be but Sheri-
dan, Hettinger, Adams and Bowman
counties of the Missouri slope without
development leagues, but the sentiment
in these localities is favorable toward
the work, and their organization will
occur in the lear future.

AT CALF
and HITS Man
MAN WITH GUN GETS SCARED
AND THREATENS TO SHOOT
COMPANION.

Minot, N. d. May 27.-Cook Rob-
inson, a prominent panker located at
Foxholm, and Eddie Norris, formerly
q well known Minot character. who
has been residing on a farm near Fox
holm for the past year or two, were
the principals in an AFFAIR at Robin
sons farm, which according to Mr..
Robinson, came very near resulting
seriously for him.
1t appears, according to Robinson's
version of the trouble, that Norris
went to the Robinson farm and shot
a calf which he, Robinson was lead
ing by a rope. The first shot failed
to finish the animal and Norris took
another shot which proved effective.
A third shot was fired, which, however,
just grazed Mr.. Robinson's hand. This
apparently frightened Norris, who
threatened to shoot Robinson If he
made a move to touch him. Robin
son claims he had no intention Of hurt
ing him and ordered him to put up his
gun and leave the place. This Norris
has done so effectively that Sheriff
Kelley, armed with a warrant for his
arrest, has been unable to And him, and
1t is believed that he is out Of the coun-
try altogether. Robinson claims to
have evidence involving a Carpio par
ty with Norris, indicating that Norris
was to secure a case Of beer for killing
the calf and bringing it to him.
