Bismarck.-Final figures on the ref
erendums have been made in the Of
fee Of the secretary Of state. The pc.
tition with reference to the Senate
Bill 1874 which would appropriate $780,
600 for the promotion of immigration
and advertising the resources of the
state has 8.272 signers which is more
than enough as only 1928 are required
to hold up the operation of the bill
until it has been voted upon by the
people of the state at the general cleo.
ton in November, 1916.
McHenry county furnished the larg-
est number of signers to this petition,
with $50. Trail county was second
with $50. and Bottineau a close third
with 5l4.
Would Restrict Sale Of Liquor.
House Bill ia also has plenty Of
signers and the official total will be
turned in at $685.. This bill would
throw still more restrictions about the
sale of intoxicating liquor in the state
and would give a way to get at some
dealers who are now able to escape
punishment under certain conditions.
Morton county was first in point of
numbers signing, they contributing
1858. while Grand Forks county came
to the front with the second largest
number, 652.
It is probable that the state law en-
forcement league will take some steps
towards testing the sufficiency of the
petition with regard to H. B. ia and
also as to the validity of the sigma
lures and whatever decision is rem
dered on that will apply with equal
force to the other bills, in fact it is
stated in this city that before the final
decision is given the supreme court
will be asked to pass upon each sigma
ture.
The only other bill that has enough
signers is the one repeating the ter
ninal elevator mill tax.

 Andrew Nerland received the largest number of votes cast for any individual councilman, but it is asserted that Dr. R. R. Myers re ceived the greatest number of votes cast for any member of the "Cltl- zens ticket. Thus the council will decide between MT. Nerland and Dr. Myers at tonight's meeting.

CRISIS PENDING IN CAR PATHlANS.

LONDON, April 11-From what can be learned of the situation in the Carpathian mountains in Aus tria-Hungary, a crisis in the war is pending there. It seems almost cer tain. from what is contained in the dispatch from Russia, that the Aus trians must either retreat soon or be captured, and in either case il will open the door for the Russians to invade Hungary.
 The situation in the Carpathian mountains is creating much optim- ism among the allies, for it is be- lieyed that if the Russians succeed as now seems certain, in winning tie big battle there, they will take all of Hungary, and this will cause the remainder of the Balkan states to enter the war on behalf of the allied nations.
 Russian troops are now in com mand Of the important passes in the section of the Carpathian chain of mountains known as the Beskid mountains. The Austrians are grad uany giving way to the pressure of the superior forces from the north, and something decisive must result soon, it is asserted.

Killed Because
 Of Her Devotion

PARIS, April 1.-The pathetic story of wife's devotion that caused her husband to kill her was told in the court-martial of Jean Hearali captain in the French army, who was on trial for murdering his wife. The captain was acquitted of the crime today.
 Hearali said, when testifying in his own behalf, that his wife insist ed on following him to the front, much against his constant objec- tions. He had explained to her, he said, that she was endangering her own reputation by coming among the men to see him, and that she would be certain to be mistaken for wom- an of questionable character,
 Finding that he could not induce her to stay at home, he threatened her, but to no avail. It was impos- sible for him to leave his command, to care for her, and in order to pro- tect his wife's reputation he killed her.

PEOPLE II VOTE
 0N PROHIBITION

VALDEZ, April 11-Local option eating liquors has been authorized by Judge Brown of this division. This means that unless a majority of the people in each commission CTS precinct are willing, there will n. no saloon permitted to operate there.
 1ht plan evolved by Judge Brown provides for a census of each com missioner's precinct As each per sons name is recorded at tEe taking of the census in the precinct he is to vote, or express his opinion, in regard to the renewal of saloon li- censes there. The expense of this census is to be born by the saloon men.
 This plan for determining the popular sentiment in each precinct concerning the sale of intoxicating liquors is believed to be the result of the remonstrance made by the people of Mccarthy to a saloon h- cense being granted there. The judge and other court officials visit ed the place to make an inVestiga ton, and this resulted in the refusal of the court to grant a license for that place.
 According to the law, the court has the deciding of the granting Of saloon licenses, and this law has been interpreted to mean that the court may refuse any saloon licenses where it is evident that the majority of the voters do not want saloons
