In the ice three miles off Chicago
harbor and sank today.
The crew and passengers, numbering
about fifty, took to the ice. City tugs
and life saving crews went. to their
rescue.
The steamers Kansas, Arizona, and
Racine, the former held fast in the ice.
were only a short distance from the
Iowa, The Racine. in clear water
though hemned In by ice, started to
the rescue of those, aboard the Iowa.
1t is believed all persons left the Iowa
before she sank.
Spectators, watching from the roof
Of q lake front skyscraper, reported the
lowa's crew and passengers reached q
pier safely.
The Iowa's steward reached shore
at noon and reported all aboard the
vessel had taken to the ice and were
struggling in. He said he believed all
would reach shore safely. There was
only one passenger aboard the ves-
sci.

Live Stock Campaign.
Is Sweeping State

kota can in single year be boosted
from $20,000000 to 50,000,00O That
is, that amount will be realized by the
farmers of the state.
The campaign which has been given
publicity by The Forum is creating a
vast amount of interest over the state.
The article appearing in The Forum
recently has been posted in banks,
postoffices and other public places ali
over the western part of the state and
the newspapers, both daily and weekly
| have taken hold of the matter in a
manner that promises great results.
A. r. Tye. prominent hog raiser
of Hazelton, has been chosen to repre-
sent the farmers of the state at the
Farmers Educational and Co-opera
tive Union of America, an organiza ton
which now has a membership OF g.
100000. In North Dakota there are
six counties organized with a mem
bership of 5000.
Mr.. Tye is not only a hog raiser.
He also raises all the corn on which
he raises the hogs and he has made
good and knows that others can make
good and by getting together can put
North Dakota way up the list in the
matter of production.

N. p. Rogers Of the Livestock ex-
change is in Bismarck and will remain
in that city until after the meeting of
the Federation of North Dakota Com
mercial clubs, which will be held there
tomorrow. as one OF the most impor-
tant matters to be discussed by the
clubs win be the big boom made by
the South st. Paul Livestock exchange
to get Stba fffbers OF North Dakota
to raise livestock and especially hogs
and raise them at once.
President Rogers stated to The
Forum this afternoon over long dis
tarlce that 1t has been estimated that
the Red River valley in North Dakota
can alone raise enough hogs next sum
mer to equal all that went through
the South St Paul exchange last year
all told. There were 100000 hogs
through the exchange last year and
President Rogers estimates that this
can be produced by the Red River
farmers of North Dakcra alone in one
season. The exchange can care for
5000, 900 in a season.
President Worst of the agricultural
college stated that by the raising of
hogs the farm products of North Da-

question up for the determination OF

confident that their respective forces
would meet with success. Two hum

to override the veto.

any sympathy, but if anyone thinks

duty they are far gone wrong in their

was the necessity of raising money to
meet the expenses WHICH was the most
trying task of ALL The fact remains
that for 25 years the legislature has
been making more prohibition laws
and refusing to provide the necessary
machinery to enforce them and they
have not been enforced In most places
except as non- official organizations of
citizens have furnished money for
such enforcement. The legislature two
years ago gave the governor power to
remove delinquent officials, but left
his hands tied by not giving him a
dollar with which to get the necessary
evidence upon which to act, and some
splendid work done by the governor
using this law would have been i'm
possible without the North Dakota
Enforcement league to get preliminary
evidence,

WARNING
TO j. s.
SHIPPING

Washington, Feb. 4.-Germany kas
notified the state department that AM
er1can vessels should avoid the north
and west coast OF France.
The department does not regard the
notice as a formal declaration OF
blockade by. Germany of the French
coast. 1t is said the mere presence OF
German submarines or the planting of
German mines would not constitute a
blockade, which. according to long
established principles of the state de-
partment. requires the maintenance OF
a fleet of warships sufficient to prevent
any intercourse with the blockaded
port.

MARSHALL MAY
DECIDE FATE
OF THE BILL

Washington, Feb. A. - Vice
President Marshall will probably
cast the vote which will decide
whether the administration ship
bill lives or dies at this session Of
congress. If the expectations of
the leaders are fulfilled, it will be
one of the new instances where a
vice president has swung the ball
ance.
This probably was indicated to-
day when the bill was up for con-
sideration with the senate divided
nearly equally.
When definite action will occur
seems uncertain.
