Among Those Hung up

That thousands Of North Dakota
people who are at present in Europe,
may have great difficulty in returning
TO this country as the result Of h
outbreak Of hostilities between the
powers is the opinion Of those CONVEX
SAINT with the European situation.
A large number who were planning
to sail for home last Saturday have
already been delayed by the with
draWal from service Of several of the
transatlantic lines of steamers.
One of those who it is supposed is
thus held up is Peer Stromme of this
city who was to have sailed Saturday
from Liverpool on the Cunnard line.
The steamers Of this company have,
however, it is understood been with
drawn from service for the present.
George B. Winship vas also sched-
uled to start home from Norway by
whether or not he succeeded in doing
so is not known.
Among the Grand Forks people
who are still in Europe and concern
ing whom more or less anxiety is felt.
are II. Ltngerud, Paul How, Gulbran-

According to Adjutant General I.
A. Berg there must be at least 10, 900
residents Of the state still remaining
on the continent Of Europe. How
they will return to America, If the war
paralyzes the transatlantic routes as
now seems likely is a mystery.

company is at present in Germany.

The two daughters Of H. Bendeke Of
this city are attending school in swits-

the little mountain state Is supposed
to be neutral. but as the neutrality
of Luxembourg has already been vio-
lated by Germany, and invaded by the
German armies, it Is possible that
something similar may occur IN

Do Not Believe Action of the

feet Grand Forks.

The action Of the Chicago and New
York clearing houses in determining
10 90 business for the present with
clearing house certificates instead Of
cash, is unlikely to effect the local
banking situation. according to J. r.
Carley, cashier of the First National
bank Of Grand Forks.
Mr. Carley said today that while
the local banks might find it some
what difficult to borrow cash ii Chi
cage as the result Of the present stu
contingency would arise.
Local banks. however, will be UNI
able for the present to sell drafts on
foreign countries, or to. rrane for
travellers checks or foreign exchange,
The interest rate in the twin cities
mas arisen one half Of one per cent
which means. that a similar rise Will
go into effect here.
