ACCIDENTS ON N. P. SYSTEM
ARE GREATLY REDUCED

AS a result of the work of the
bureau of eciciency on the North
ern Pacific railway, accidents to en-
ployes were decreased 27 per cent
during the first seven months of 1915,
as compared with the same period
of last year. The record is consid-
cred a remarkable one, inasmuch as
the number of accidents to employees
during 1914 was considerably below
that Of 1918.
Education is the keynote of the
work of the bureau, which since May
/ Of this year has been under the di-
rection Of Fred M. Metcalf, special
representa- tive Of the first vice, presi-
dent. By means of written instruc-
tions as to safe and efficient methods,
ocular demonstrations and personally
delivered lectures, the gospel of safety
is carried from one end of the sys-
tenn to the other. Cooperation be-
tween employees is obtained through
the Careful Club recently organized.
Accidents to others than empolyes
were reduced rs per cent during the
seven-month period. The report of
the bureau shows that a large pro-
portion of those not employees killed
and injured were trespassers, against
whom the company has practically no
means of securing itself. Accidents
to passengers are reduced partly by
the; use of conspicuously posted not
ices and partly by protecting the
public from machinery and all appara-
tus which might cause an accident.

GRAIN CROP FIGURES
COMPILED FOR N. D.

Some interesting statistics concern
ing North Dakota's 1O0,000,000 bushel
wheat crop have been collected. Some
Of the figures are startling. For in
stance, to haul this crop in thousand
bushel cars there would be required
a solid train Of over 500 miles long,
a train SO long that while the engine
was: whistling for Chicago, the ca
boose would be just about at James
town on the Northern Pacific. All
Of the North Dakota wheat crop, with
the exception of a small fraction, is
hauled in cars Of approximately that
size. These cars are not hauled at
one time, or in one train, but the
hauling Of them gives employment to
an, army Of men. The wheat raised
in North Dakota this year would be
enough to- provide each man, woman
and child in Belgium with 300 pounds
jof flour, far more than enough to
make bread for all Of Belgium for a
year. a~

JANET LANG WAS
FRIEND OF ROOSEVELT

The Fallonite, published at Baker,
Montana, contained the following ac-
count Of Mrs. Janet Lang's death on
August 26:
On Monday morning near the hour
Of six o'clock Mrs. Janet T. Lang
peacefully passed away. While Mrs.
Lang had been in feeble health, her
condition was not such as to cause
anxiety. Sunday Mrs. Lang passed
the day in her usual manner about
the house and in the evening wrote q
letter to her daughter who resides in
Edinburg, Scotland.
well and while enjoying peaceful re-
pose the angel of death beckoned her
and she passed from our ken to the
great beyond. T.. ....
Janet T. Lang was born in jed
burgh, Scotland, December 9th, 1888,
and was near her 18th year. She was
married to Gregor Lang in July, 1862.
Shortly after her marriage she
moved to Ireland, living there until
the year 1884, when they emigrated
to America and settled in the valley
Of the Little Missouri, where they
engaged in the stock raising. There
The family made their home until they
removed to Baker in 1909, engaging
in the mercantile business with her
son, VIM. G. Lang.
Gregor Lang, husband and father,
died in 1900 while visiting the old
home in Edinburgh.
Mrs. Lang was the mother of three
children, Mrs. D. F. Wishart Of Edin-
burgh, Scotland, Lincoln A. Lang Of
Delwit, Michigan, and VIM. G. Lang
Of Baker. During the residence of
Mrs. Lang at the ranch on the Little
Missouri she and her family became
the friends of Theodore Roosevelt and
to Mrs. Lang, Theodore Roosevelt was
the embodiment of the true American.
| Coming to the west when the coun-
try was new she endured the hard
ships Of frontier life and in her late
years she treasured the memories of
the friends and scenes of those days.
Mrs. Lang was one of those women,
of a type fast passing away, loyal
to fault, yet open and courageous in
her life, she did not hesitate to con-
denim wrong and injustice when en-
countered.
In the death of Mrs. Lang the
[ people of Baker lose a conscientious
and sincere friend, whose every wish
was for their welfare. AS the people
of Baker pay tribute to her memory,
it will be with a full realization of
the loss they have sustained.

London, Dec. IA, 1920 p. m.-The next big battle will, in all probability, be fought in Greece, despite the efforts of the Hellenic king and government to save their country from the horrors of war.
 The British and French forces have made good their retirement down the Vardar valley and are now approaching Salonlki, where endorsements are be- ing landed, while reports received in Paris and Rome say that the Bulgari- ans have crossed the Greek frontier in pursuit. The reports of such action by the Bulgarians come somewhat as a surprise, as it had been thought yoke the Greeks and that consequently if the entente allies are followed at all the task would be allotted to the Aus trians and Germans.
 Greece's Situation Complicated.
 Greece's situation Automatically has been complicated by the request of Germany to know whether the Athens cabinet does not look upon the use of Greek territory by the entente allies as a breach of her neutrality, and this inquiry is considered to foreshadow German participation in the pursuit. However, it is not believed here that the Germans have many troops in that part of the Balkans, their main forces having been diverted to Rustchuk, when the Russian threat of an inva- sion of Bulgaria seemed likely of full fillment. and that therefore the entente troops for the present only have to fear the Bulgarians, as the Austrians are still being occupied in Montenegro

ATTORNEY MARSHALL TO
 INTERVIEW SAMUEL GOMPERS
About the Activities of Labors Peace
 Council,

New York Dec. 14.-The federal grand jury which has been inquiring into the activities of Labor's Peace Council Franz Von Rintelen and David Lamar in relation to strikes at muni- tions plants will not reconvene it was learned today, until Sampel Gompers, president of the American Federation been interviewed by United States Dis trict Attorney H. Snowden Marshall MT. Gompers has not been served with a subpoena and the federal authori- ties say that until they obtain a statement from him they cannot name the manufacturing plants where strikes are believed to have been financed by Won Rintelen.
 The government knew little of Won Rintelen's activities, it was said at the federal building today, until he and Andrew D. Meloy were held by the British authorities at Falmouth on their way to Germany. Won Rintelen was taken to the Tower of London a prisoner, while Meloy was sent back to the United States.
 To save himself from punishment for his part in obtaining a fraudulent American passport for Won Rintelen upnder the name of Edward A. Gates, Meloy is said to have told the federal authorities all he knew about Won Rintelen. According to Meloy, it is asserted, David Lamar approved the proposal to incite strikes but thought more could be accomplished in the in- tions on the output of munitions plants. Von Rintelen and Meloy, &C., cording to the latter, were on their way to Germany to seek funds to carry out Lamar's plan when they were arrested at Falmouth.

CONCENTRATION CAMP FOR
 GERMANS AND AUsTRIANs Taken from Ships by British and French Cruisers-At Barbados,

New York, Dec. 14.-A concentration camp for Germans and Austrians taken from ships by British and French cruisers in southern American. and West Indian waters has been estab- lished at Barbados. according to pas- sengers who arrived today on the steamship Acre from West Indian ports. When they left Barbados the passengers said, the camp held 120 prisoners. mainly German and Aus trian commercial representatives taken while travelling between South Amer ican countries. together with sailors found on ships that cruisers have stop ped.
 According to reports in Barbados the passengers added. beginning with this month, the seas are to be swept clean by the allies of all male representa- tives of enemy nations. Women and children are not to be taken, but all will be seized regardless of occupa- ton, if they cannot prove citizenship of neutral countries.
 The camp where they are to be held has comfortable quarters and thougr the prisoners are under guard they are not compelled to work

OF STORM
 AROUND NEW YORK CITY
Small Armies of linemen Working to
 Restore Communications.

New York, Dec. 14.-Railroads lead- ing out of New York were struggling tonight to release them from the grip of the first storm of the season. Fallen wires made the task difficult, but small armies of nnemen had been at work for hours and it was hoped something like regular schedules could be re- stored tomorrow.
 Paralysis of traffic on the New York, New Haven and Hartford has been only partly relieved, but the New York Central reported it had accounted for all of its trains. Lack of telegraph communication made it impossible to determine exactly where the most se- rious trouble occurred or conditions which prevail, but officials believed powerful blows had forced paths through the drifts which buried the rails and that tracks now are virtually clear. All trains are operated with extreme caution, however, for it is impossible for dispatchers to keep track of their movements.
 Passengers aboard the New York CentraFs crack Twentieth Century Limited from Chicago arrived here at 8 o'clock tonight, more than ten hours late.

and Albania, where the Montenegrins and Serbians are keeping up stub born resistance. It has again been reported that the Italians have landed an army on the Albanian coast to go to the assistance of the SerbianS and Montenegrins.
 Fighting on the GalIipoIi.
 There has been more fighting on the Gallipoi penansula. The Turks here claim to have repulsed an attack against their left wing at Seddul Bahr. The Turkish official accounts say nothing new has occurred at Kut-el- Amara, where the Turks are operating against the British who retired from the Bagdad region. This is taken in military circles here as an admission on the part of the Turks that their attacks on the British position on the Tigris river had failed.
 The previous reports of the losses the Turks inflicted on the British when the British retired down the river are declared in private informa- tion now reaching London to have been exaggerated. For example, the three vessels which they captured turn out to have been a tugboat and two barges.
 Italians Hammerins at Austrians.
 The Italians are still hammering away at the Austrian positions around Gorizia. The town of Gorizia itself has again been bombarded. Austrian officers who have been through many big battles on the eastern front de- scribe the Italian artillery fire as more terrific and continuous than any they have previously experienced.

FLIMsY CLAIM OF WEAKNESS
 IN AMERICAN NOTE TO AUSTRIA
Virtually That the Latter Government Was Not Familiar With American Attitude.

Vienna, Dec. 13, via London, Dec. 14, 930 a. m.-The American note to Austria Hungary concerning the sink ing of the Italian steamer Ancona is regarded here as weak in one impor- tant point which may deprive the note in general of it's foundation.
 This concerns the standpoint taken that the Austro-Hungarian govern ment should be familiar with the atti- tu5e of the American government re- garding the freedom of the seas be- cause President Wilson had explained this to the German government, thus implying that Austria, as Germany's ally. should be acquainted with the principles laid down and desired by Washington.
 Against this stand of Washington the objection is raised in responsible quarters here that the government has knowledge of the negotiations in the Lusitania case only through the newspapers; that it could give to these reports no diplomatic value, and that 1t has not concerned itself in any way uzith the Lusitania case.
