WANTS $4,000 FOR
BEING RUN OVER

Moorhead, Oct. 20.-Attorney c. G.
Dosland served papers on Chesebro
Smith, well known Fargo man, at De-
troit in suit for damages amounting
to $4,000. The suit was brought by
Fred Fisher, formerly of Fargo, but
now of Iowa, who charges that Smith
ran over him with his car about year
ago. Fisher charges that Smith, in at
tempting to pass several automobiles
on North Broadway, drove to the left
and ran into his motorcycle. Fisher
was thrown of his motor and the auto
ran over his foot, breaking some
bones. Fisher was taken to St. Johns
hospital where he was confined for
several days.
Smith offered to settle with Fisher,
but his offer was unsatisfactory to
Fisher and he put the matter into the
hands of Attorney Dosland. The mat
ter will come up before Judge c. A.
Nye at the December term Of the dis
trict court.

IDENTIFY RUGBY
MURDER VICTIMS

Rugby, Oct. 15.-1t is believed here
as result of the investigation con
Quoted by the sheriff and states attor
ney, that the two murder victims
POUNDS at a burned straw stack west
Of the city, were James Lackerbein
and Gordon lotion.
The theory advanced at Fargo by
Mrs. VIM. Brandvold that the victims
were her son and husband are dis
counted by the officials, unless the
men were going under assumed
names.
The men have been traced and
identified, through the places at which
they have worked and checks cashed
here. It is believed that they had
been offered jobs in the country north
Of here and were decoyed west of the
city on the theory that it was the best
place to catch on trains. The straw
stack where they were found Is only
few rods from the railway track.

Taylor Seeks Reelection as
Insurance Commissioner

Bismarck, Oct. 21.-"My present
purpose is to stand for reelection tt
the Office now hold.'
Insurance Commissioner w. C. Tay
lor returned to Bismarck yesterday
after an absence of several weeks. His
main objective was the ancient city
Of Monterey, CAL, where the annual
meeting of the National Convention
Of Insurance Commissioners was held
At this session Mr.. Taylor was elect
ed second vice president of the ma
tional body, being thus placed in line
for the presidency two years hence.
Mr.. Taylor also visited the exposi
tions at San Diego and San Francis
co, and is enthusiastic in his praise
of the North Dakota building and ex
hibit at San Francisco. He was con
WINGED that his estimate of North Da.
kota's splendid showing was not par.
tial, in view Of the uniform praise be-
slowed by visitors from other states
He declares that w. E. Holbein, sec
rotary Of the North Dakota commits
sion, and John Freyberger, who col
lected and arranged the exhibit, were
peculiarly fitted for the work assigned
them.
On his return trip Mr.. Taylor Wis
tied a brother who resides in Alder
ia, 300 miles north of Calgary. He
found the martial spirit at high ten.
sion throughout western Canada, the
scarcely admitted thought that the
Dominion might possibly become a
German dependency being far from
grateful.
Referring to a newspaper report
published during his absence from the
state, that he would resign his office
about the first of the year to become
president and general manager of an
insurance company now being organ.
lied in this city, Mr.. Taylor said the
report was wholly premature and
without foundation. "In the first
place, have had no such OFFER" said
the commissioner, land in the second
place, no such offer was possible to
be made. The present organization
Of the company in question is merely
preliminary. The permanent organ.
ization will be affected at the first an.
nual meeting of the stockholders, and
of course the personnel of the official
family of the company is now wholly
speculative. My present purpose is
to stand for reelection to the Office

sentence had actually been passed and
manifested some surprise that we
should give credit to any report not
emanating from official sources. He
was quite insistent on knowing the
exact source Of our information but
this did not come to him."
The report adds that Won Lancken
was induced to inquire as to the sta
tus Of the case.
HE telephoned to the presiding
Judge of the court martial and re-
turned to say that the facts were as
he had presented them and that it
was intended to carry out the sen

feet of summary execution of this
source upon public opinion both here
and abroad and although had no au.
thority for doing so, l called atten'

The story of the execution Of Edith
Cavell as told in the correspondence
sent by the American minister at
Brussels, to the American ambassador
at London, and printed in full in all
the British morning papers, it is pre-
dicted will send a wave of indignation
throughout the country. II
In Trafalgar Square yesterday, all
heads were barred to the memory of
Miss Cavell. One speaker, holding
wreath in his hand to be placed on
the plinph Of the Nelson column to
her memory, exclaimed:
I'VE will avenge the murder Of this
splendid English woman!" an ,,
In response to this appeal, many
new recruits came forward. The
London papers in their editorials
while paying tribute to the fine efforts
Of the American diplomatic represen
tatives acting in her behalf, cursed
her execution as "the most damnable
crime of the war"
The Daily Telegraph says: "The
documents are a record Of such a
foul damnable infamy as all Ger
many's bloody crimes in this war can
not equal; this was cold, calculated

taken to which justice could not ba
done.

forcement League in general, and in
particular to the coming meeting to

zens before going to meet her appoint

time and energy for the good of this
