ON RECORD
FOR Lower
FIRST OF GOVERNOR HAM
MAS RECOMMENDATIONS
TO BE PASSED UPON BY
BOTH HOUSES. :.
PASS INDEPENDENT Bills
House and Senate Within a Few
Minutes Act on Money Rates

It was a race between the house
and the senate yesterday to pass a
bill lowering the legal rate of inter-
est from per cent to per and con-
tract rate from 12 to 10. Both houses
passed measures providing for this
decrease yesterday.
Now it remains to be seen whose
bill will be enacted into law.
The bill that passed the senate
was a committee measure bearing the
name Of the ways and means commit
tee, which took all the interest meas
ures and worked them into a commit
tee bill. There was not dissenting
voice in the senate.
This issue figured prominently in
the recent campaign. Governor Han
ma was attacked as being in favor of
holding up the interest rate, although
he had denied the accusation repeat
edly in printed statements. His mes
sage came out directly for per cent
legal rate and 10 per cent contract
rates.
The house passed the Everson bill,
H. B. No. 2, by vote of 1O3 ayes,
no nays and seven absent and not
voting. This bill provides for the
same rates of interest as the bill pass
ed by the senate.

warn CARRANzA
1ROUbLE AHEAD
Secretary Bryan Informs MexiI
can Leader to Keep Hands
Off Oil Wells.

Washington, d. c., Jan. 15.-Secre-
tary Bryan announced today that the
United States government had warn
ed General CarranZa that serious
consequences will follow the threat
ened confiscation of foreign oil wells
at Tampico.
Earlier today. the British ambassa-
dor, Spring Rice, filed a protest with
the state department against the Car
rama embargo on oil there, where
the British navy secures some of it's
fuel.
Already Carranza officials have prac-
tically enforced the embargo on ex-
portation of oil by a big English COM
pany. The British ambassador, at the
suggestion of Secretary Bryan, sent
an urgent telegram to the British
counsul at Vera Cruz which he was
instructed to show Carranza. That
there is possibility of serious COM
plications over the Carranza govern
ment's attitude is fully realized by the
American government. FIyan said
foreign owned oil companies cleared
the coniiscation of their wells by
CarranZa. and urgent representations
made 10 forestall such action.

DEMOCRATS ARE
Up AGAINST It
Stumped by Minority Of Senators
They Have Little Hope for
Remaining Weeks.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 15.-Dem'
ocratic leaders in the senate, beset by
every parliamentary obstacle the mi
nority senators can resort to, prac.
tically abandoned hope today Of ac'
ccmplishing any general legislation
in the few remaining weeks of the
sixty-third congress, except the appro-
priation bills, and The government
ship purchase measure.
Inform President Wilson.
Even the ship purchase bill is in
danger of failure according to some
opinions. 1t has also become known
that certain democratic senator's told
President Wilson in a conversation
regarding the measure of Philli-
pine independence bill which he urged
in his annual message is not to be
passed this season.

Bismarck high school continued it's

! when che representative basketball

with clean cut victory over the op-
position on the Minot floor by score

the Tribune office was beseiged by an
army of rooters anxious for the re-
suit, while FIRST aid' was also rem

the wires hot for several hours. When
the result was finally flashed over the
city that Bismarck had been returned

DEFENSE|S
IMPERFECT
SENATOR LODGE DECLARES
CONGRESS TO BLAME FOR
MILITARY UNPREPARED-
NESS OF NATION. ....
MILITIA IS BldnLY Defective
Recommendation by Secretary Of
War Garrison for $4,000 More
Men Is Moderate.

Washington, Jan. 15.-In urging up
on the senate the need for commits
sicn to report on military prepared
ness, or for a permanent council of
national defense, Senator Lodge to-
day declared that the national de-
Tense of the country lis not only i'm
perfect a1d unbalanced, but that it
has grave and in some instances fatal
deficiencies" He designated what
he termed many of the defects and
said they were almost wholly due
to congress-" .
No Added Expense.
An adequate national defense, the
senator said, could be obtained with
out additional expenditures. '"Cut off
cur needless army posts, navy yards
and stations" he advised the senate.
Lay aside for a few years appropria-
tion for public buildings and river and
harbor improvements where they are
not needed. Drop al 1.-The expendi-
lures which are designed for spots
where votes are lying thickest, and
you will have money enough to pro-
vide for sufficient army and an ade-
quate navy without adding to the bur-
den of taxation"
He wa.'ned that the ocean barrier
that defended the country in 1916 and
in 1912 had been destroyed by steam
and electricity. Unarmed, unready,
uldefended, the nation stands an in
vitation to aggression and attack, he
said.
Militia Defective, Too.
Senator Lodge asserted that not on
ly the regular army, but the militia
was highly defective, adding that the
Panama canal was "miserably and
most inadequately protected against
being blown up and blocked for
months by agents or spies of hostile
nation.
He said the recommendation of
Secretary Garrison for a $4,000 in
men was very moderate.
He expressed regret that only 16
men are on the reserve list subject
to be called back to the colors to fill
up the gaps which war would make
il the regular army.
Senator Lodge declared \the army
was. without sufficient artillery and
artillery ammunition and sail avail
able testimony showed that the guns
in the Notifications were of shorter
range than those carried by foreign
Warships Of the latest designs.

BU|L0 SUBMARINES
FOR english NAVY
Order for Twenty Sea Fighters
Placed With Canadian Com
pany at Montreal.

Montreal, Jan. 15.-A fleet Of sub
marines for the British navy is under
construction at Montreal. An order
for twenty underwater craft Of the
English design has been placed with
the Canadian Vickers company of
Montreal, and work has been started
upon ten of the boats.
The company is branch of the
English ship building firm, Vickers
Son & Maxim of England, which built
the first dreadnaught and many other
powerful boats for the admiralty.
1t is stated that the submarine work
has no relation to the order which
Charles NJ Schwab obtained from the
British government for submarines to
which the Washington government OBJ
jected as involving breach of nell
trality.

WHOLE TOWNS DESTROYED.

WHOLE TOWNS DESTROYED.
There is every reason to believce
that only few hundred out of II, 900
who inhabited Sora were saved. Re-
lief expeditions hurried to Sora, every
hour are bringing word of more har-
rowing particulars of the destruction
Of the town. The shocks were so Sc
we're there that some buildings were
apparently removed from their foun-
dations and overturned some distance
from their original positions. The riv-
er Liri is overhowing.
A message says in Sappadocio all
houses are uninhabitable and the
people are camping in the snow. Twen-
" bodies were recovered from the
ruins there, and it is estimated 80
more are still beneath the debris. The
town of Sourcola is now but pile of
ruins, beneath which are buried hun
dreds of bodies. OF a population Of
900, only thirty escaped. At Magliano'
di-Marsi, 1900 were killed. Capelle
was destroyed with loss Of over IL
hundred. Nearly the entire popuia-
ton of Ean Benedetto, numbering
5000 met death. The towns of Ar
tucchio, with $500, and Giosamarsi,
with $500 inhabitants are in ruins.
At. Pescina, the number of deaths are
about 1000, which is approximately
~alf Of the population.
Fire Adds to Horror.
The amount, of damage cannot be
determined from the meagre descrip-
tions of the catastrophe reaching
Rome over hampered lines Of cOmmu-
nication. Such details as come, how.
ever, leave nc doubt that nearly a
hundred towns and villages were ut
terly demolished or partly wrecked,
with a great loss of life. Thousands
of persons have now lain nearly three
days beneath the crumbled buildings
throughout the earthquake zone. Some
are dead and others are still living.
Many removed from the Wreckage and
brought to Rome hospitals for treat
ment, are being cared for in temporary
structures. Many caught in the
wreckage are not believed injured,
but perished from the cold and hunger
or were incinerated in the fires which
broke out amid the ruins. The number
of burned is probably greatest at
Avezzano and Magiano-di-Marai, as
there was no water to quench the fire.
Besides the listed cities, other places
report the death roll running from two
to 10000.
Rome, Jan. 15.-Willam tMarconi
who returned from devastated
Avezzano aboard train with King
Victor Emmanuel, declared words are
insufficient to describe the horrors
he witnessed. The town is leveled
and those residents escaping are now
destitute.
King Victor Emmanuel told me"
said Marconi, that che visited scenes
of all the earthquake disasters in It.
ALLY since he was child, but this
one surpassed all, even the Messina
horror"
The king said the survivors Of Az
eZZano numbered only two or three
per cent of it's population, while in
Messina a third escaped.
Describes Scene Of Horror.
Describing the damage, 'Marconi
said: !
"Avezzano has absolutely ceased to
exist. In Messina some buildings,
