FIREMAN INJURED
AT COLUMBUS FIRE

Columbus. N. D.. Dec. A fire in
the poolhall of Joe Kvernum brought
the fire department of the town out
in a hurry. The blaze started in the
cellar and, it Is supposed, originated
through a match or lighter cigar be-
ing dropped through a very small hole
in the floor into 8 box containing Il
large amount of excelsior, which i'm
mediately started into a flame. The
tire was making good Roadway when
discovered, and was very hard for the
fire department to get to on account
of smoke getting so thick that it was
practically impossible for them to see
their way through the poolhall above.
On this account the bucket brigade
could do little but wait for the hose
wagon. However this soon Quenched
the fire but left the cellar well Allied
with water. Sufficient insurance was
carried on the building to cover the
loss. The position OF the building
made the fire one that began to look
very bad to the property wner on
the same street.
Oscar @. Grina. one OF the firemen.
was severely injured in falling down q
stairway. The thickness OF he smoke
kept him from seeing where he Was
walking.

RAILROAD EARNINGS
ARE AFFECTED

Duluth. Dec, 4.-The present brand
OF weather.. say the railroad men Of
Duluth. is having the effect of seriously
decreasing the receipts of the roads.
In the first place there are no log
glng or numbering operations at all,
and in the second place the report Of
the Duluth terminal officials shows that
last month there was a decrease of
5000 cars of coal sent out from here,
as compared with November, 1912.
Coal is moving slowly and fairly
steadily at the present time. but there
have been no large shipments and the
railroad men are of the opinion that
1t will require cold weather to increase
the shipment of coal to any large de-
gree.
1T is the quietest season that I can
ever remember witnessing" said G.. +.
Kennedy, commercial agent Of the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & st. Paul road. THE
numbering operations are practically
nothing at all. while the coal movement
is clear behind the tonnage Of the last
year. Not only that, but the weather
seems to have affected other lines.
Business In general Is very quiet at the
present time, and this fact coupled with
the very peculiar weather conditions,
has combined to cause a general lack

Situation.

Washington, Aug. 16. - Not only
does the United States face a famine
IN It's domestic meat supply, but
stringent rules covering meat importa-
lions may debar meat and cattle from
great meat-supplying nations.
The situation is critical.
This vas the statement made by
DR.. R. A. Ramsey, chief of the in
spection division of the bureau of ami
NAL ~husbandry. The crisis in meat
exhaustion, which has been approach
ing for years, has been fastened by
the great drouth over Kansas, Iowa,
Indiana, Illinois, Nebraska, Oklahoma
and the southwest. simultaneously
contagious diseases of livestock in Ar
g%entina, Australia, New Zealand and
the Indies, the only sources of sup
ply, have developed.
Inspectors Are Out.
The department Of agriculture now
has an inspector in Argentina, Aus
tralia and New Zealand, studying con-
ditions there SO that we may formu-
late entrance inspection regulations
for dressed meats and livestock" said
DR.. Ramsey. "Advices indicate that
in Argentina particularly there are cpl
denies Of virulent hoof and mouth dis
ease and ticks. The diseases will pre-
vent the entrance Of Argentine meat,
for this country must protect itself.
We have had several scourges of this
nature and it has cost the country mil
lions Of dollars. Even now" and DR..
Ramsey pointed out a red-spotted
map, you see that we have a great
district from Florida to eastern Texas
~quarantined against the tick disease"

NO MONEY FOR SPECIALIZING
S50,OO0,CO0 is FOR HANDLING
CROPS ONLY.
National Institutions Must Keep Gov.
eminent Supplied With Informal
ton Regarding Their Needs.

Washington, Aug. 14.-Banks which
borrow or loan money for speculative
purposes VIII be denied any portion
Of the 100000 of government funds
about to be deposited in the national
banks to assist in moving the crops
and the entire amount will go to in
situations that earnestly strive to feed
the currency demands Of the agricul-
tural section.
This policy of the treasury depart
ment was announced when Acting
Comptroller Of the Currency Kane, in
connection with a call for the con-
dition of national banks, at the close
OF business Aug. 8, asked every ma
tional bank in the country to report
detailed information of all money
loaned or borrowed. Upon the basis
OF this data, expected to be available
in time for the distribution of $780,
900 900, the treasury department will
aim to differentiate between the banks
which borrow or loan in connection
with speculative operations or are
chrome borrowers and those who en-
deavor to relieve financial strain
wherever it exists.
Information of this character, it
was announced, will be regularly OBJ
tanned by the comptroller of the
currency as a feature of his calls for
the condition of the national banks
In order that the treasury department
may know what sections of the coun-
try are in need of additional ~circula-
ton at various periods Of the year.
This innovation is the forerunner
Of other material changes in the char
acter of information the banks will
be required in the future to furnish
the government. The forms which
have been in use for years are being
studied with a view to further steps
to obtain detailed information.

RESISTED ARREST; KILLED

Calumet, Mich, Aug. 16.-One strik-
ing miner was killed and two deputy
sheriffs were wounded in the first
fatal outbreak of the copper miners
strike. The fight occurred at Seeber-
vile, an Italian miners settlement.
The miner was killed while resisting
arrest.
The deputies went to Seeberville to
get two strikers who had forced the
mine guards away at the Champion
mine of the Copper Range Consolidat-
ed company. The two strikers, though
without passes, refused to be halted
by the guards. Later, when deputies
went to S~eeberyille to arrest the men,
the strikers gathered and attacked
the officers with revolvers. Many
shots were exchanged.
