nounced at Chicago by Baron
Reading.

Chicago, Sept 30-Financial agents
of Great Britain and France, in
America to float a vast credit loan, an
nounced formally in Chicago on Tues
day night that half billion dollars
was the amount sought by the warning
nations.
The announcement, carrying with
it the terms of the proposed loan, was
made simultaneously in Chicago and
New York. The local declaration fol-
lowed the banquet of the members of
the Anglo-American commission at the
Blackstone hotel.
Here are the terms of the history
paper men by Baron Reading of Err
leigh (Sir Rufus Isaacs), lord chief
justice of England:
"a total of $500,000,CO0 to be issued
on joint Anglo-French fye-year five
per cent bonds offered to the public
at 90, and to the syndicate of under
writer's at SO.
Furthermore, the proposition is to
issue the bonds in denominations as
low as 800, and arrangements may be
made by which subscribers might pay
for them by instalIments, explained
Baron Reading and his European col
leagues at the banquet given by the
Commercial club.
The New York announcement of the
amount and terms of the loan was
made through J. P. Morgan & Co.
Dispatches told of a repetition of the
announcement made here.

TAR AND FEATHER ACCUSED
Removal Brings BIisters and Doctor
and Prosecutor Are Called In
Into the Case.

Neillsville.-Tarred and feathered
by gang of men, George Behring Of
the town of Mayville was later arrest
ed and has been bound over to Circuit
court. All spectators were barred at
the preliminary examination held be-
fore Justice Firnstahl at Colby.
Behring was waylaid near his home.
After taking off all his clothing, his as
sailants applied coat of tar with a
broom, and feathers were then asded.
He used kerosene to remove the tar.
The oil blistered Behring so serious
ly that he consulted a Colby physician
for relief, with the result that District
Attorney Rush was called into the
case.
When the district attorney learned
that the tar and feathers had been ap-
piled because Behring was accused by
a young woman he had escorted home
from a dance, Behring was arrested
on serious charge.

STATE TO INSPECT BOILERS
special Committee of Experts Has
Aided Industrial Commission
In Working Out Code.

Madison.-State inspection of sta
tionary boilers soon viii be an actuality
IN Wisconsin. Three years ago the
Industrial commission made a begin
ming in this important work and before
long it will adopt the entire set of
rules to be known as the Wisconsin
boiler code.
The plan is to utilize existing ma
chinery for inspections. Insurance
company inspectors, for example, will
continue to inspect boilers which are
insured. They will report to the COM
mission and there will be no charge
to the owner other than the customary
premium paid to the insurer. In the
city of Milwaukee the city inspector
will continue to make inspections. The
commissions inspectors will inspect
only those boilers outside of Milwau-
kee which are not insured. This is
expected to eliminate the danger of
disastrous explosions.

had forty canary birds in one room
and almost as many cats on a bench
adjoining the bird cages. The displays
Of flowers and vegetables came from
the school gardens and numbered more
than 1000. IN addition to this at every
school there was a display of prize
winning work of the pupils.
There also was a display by manual
training students and an exhibit of
work in the continuation and night
schools.

Cannot Punish pov< tIn5a- Firt.sn.

Cannot Punish Soys Under Fifteen.
The new game law prohibiting boys
under fifteen years of age from hunt
ing has the state game wardens and
the conservation commission running
around in circles, for although the
statute specifically states that boys
under this age cannot tote gun
around in the woods and peg chip
hunks and other game full of holes.
there is no penalty attached to such
action.
The result is that while the wardens
have been filing the Juvenile and
county courts with tow-headed offend
ers they are not getting anywhere be-
cause the law does not provide for a
fine or any other form of punishment.
The youthful nimrods all over the
state are able, therefore, unless
harsh words affect them, to take pot
shots at rabbits, partridges, grouse,
COWS that happen to get in the path
Of their shotgun shrapneI, and any
other living thing that might come IN
der the notice of these embryo Buffalo
Bills.

this proposition" said Secretary Schei-
bel Of the conservation commission.

can be done with them for hunting,

Rains Hinder Highway Labors.

Excessive rains throughout the state
have hindered seriously the work of
the highway department, according to
A. r. Hirst, chief engineer, but not
to such an extent that the plans out
lined will not be completed.
Mr.. Hirst says, however, that much
of the work cannot be as good as it
would have been had conditions been
more favorable, for it is impossible to
get best results when the base of the
work is wet and soft. But as a rule,
Mr.. Hirst said, the results will be quite
satisfactory.
Mr.. Hirst is preparing to make an
exhibit of Wisconsin highway work at
the road congress to be held at Cedar
Rapids, Ia.
For instance, in the counties of
Rock, Waukesha, Washington, N:lwau-
kee, Ozaukee, Winnebago and Calu-
net, so per cent of the highways are
in the class of surface roads.
The counties having from so to 80
per cent of surface roads are Sheboy-
gan, Manitowoc, kewaunee. Door,
Florence, Sank, Columbia, Dodge, Ra-
cine and Walworth.
Counties showing from IS to so per
cent of the surfaced roads are La
Crosse, Ashland, Marinette, Oconto,
Waupaca, Outagamie, Brown, Wash
burn, Green Lake, Fond du Lac, Dane,
Jefferson, Green and Kenosha.

DENIES GRIPPING U. s. TRADE.
Great Britain Shows American Gains
Are Enormous.

Great Britain Shows American Gains
Are Enormous.
Washington, Oct 4.-Great Britain's
answer to reports widely circulated in
this country that she has been inter.
fering with legitimate trade of the
United States with neutral European
nations for the benefit of her own ex-
pOrters is given in a note handed to
Ambassador Page in London by Sir
Edward Grey, the foreign minister,
and made public here by the state de-
partment.
Data and figures are quoted at
length to prove that where British
exports and re-exports have increased
the growth of similar trade from the
United States has been many times as
large, while in many cases there have
been vast increases of American ex-
ports, compared with decreases in
those from the United Kingdom.
The note, which is in response to the
British ambassadors report of a refer
ence at the state department to the
unfavorable impression created here
by reports of increases in British trade
with northern European countries
since the war began, suggests also that
statements concerning Great Britain's
policy have been inspired by German
agents.
August 13 is the date of the note.

Potatoes Total 100000 Bushels.

That Wisconsin is annually market
ing in the neighborhood of 25,000,000
bushels of potatoes, or 20 per cent of
the entire output entering interstate
trade, is the information given out in
a bulletin issued by the university
college. While this output is sent to
nearly every state in the Union, the
majority part of it is consumed in the
middle West and Mississippi valley.
Another point brought out by the
bulletin is that the warehouses in the
state have capacity to accommodate
but one-third of the yearly crop.
Most of the storing is done by the
farmers themselves, it being more
economical for the farmers to store at
home and haul to the shipping point
at their convenience.
Chicago is the greatest potato mar
ket, according to the bulletin, and in
sists upon the potatoes being shipped
in bulk so that they can be graded be-
fore sacking for the city trade
Machinery is gradually being intro
duced for the grading and handling
of potatoes which greatly aids in the
work of taking care of the crop.

Gain Ground in the Champagne
District.
ALLIES TAKE HILL NO. 1871
Berlin Admits Position Has Been Lost
but Insists Counter-Attack Against
British Is Gaining-Germans
Lose 121 Guns.

London, Oct. 2.-Continuing the ter
rife offensive which has netted the
allies almost daily gains for the past
week and has resulted in the greatest
loss OF life and prisoners OF any SINH
lar period in the entire war, the
French troops in Champagne district
on Thursday again broke through the
German lines west of Tabure Height
and at Hill No. 191, capturing the lat
ter strategic position and rendering
almost the entire German railroad
from Cernay to Somme-Py useless.
Berlin officially admits the loss of
Hill 191 and the penetration Of the
German lines southeast of SOucheZ.
The greatest French gains continue
in the Champagne region north of
MesniI and farther to the east be-
tween Hill 100, north of Massiges. and
the road from Ville-sur-Tourbes to
Cernay, followed by bayonet charges.
More prisoners were taken in this &C
ton, according to Paris.
The French statement admits the
success of German counter-attacks at
L'Ouvrage de la Defaite, but declares
a second attack was repulsed with
heavy losses to the Germans.
The recount of booty taken in this
fighting since September % puts the
total Of field pieces and heavy guns
captured from the Germans at 121.
In the Champagne district it now
appears that the French are directing
their heaviest attack upon the great
German defensive works at Tahure,
which commands the lateral railroad
along the German front. More than
five hundred French guns are pouring
solid shot and shells into the FORTH.
cation.
But while the French are reciting
further gains in the Champagne and
southeast Of Souchez, the British &C
ton on the extreme western end OF
the line has been slowed down. Der.
lin claims steady if slow progress OF
the counter-attack against the British
including the blowing up Of two Brit.
ish companies south of the Menin'
Ypres road.
All eyes are now fixed on the region
around Lens, northern France, where
the Franco-British pincers are closing
in slowly and irresistibly on the Ger
mans.
This district of France is known as
the black country" Lens being the
heart of the coal-mining industry.
Eastward of Loos, which lies north
of Lens, the British have pushed on q
considerable distance on La Bassee
road and now occupy the entire oval
plateau of which Hill No. 70 is the cul
minating point. The British thus domi
nate both the city of Lens and the
plains surrounding it.

FILM TRUST IS HIT
BY FEDERAL COURT
Decides Moving Picture Combine
Must Dissolve.
ANTITRUST LAW IS VIOLATED
District Court at Philadelphia Rem
ders Decision Declaring Contracts
Are Conspiracy in Restraint
of Trade and Are Illegal.

Philadelphia, Oct. 4-The United
States district court on Friday decided
the antitrust dissolution suit against
the Motion Picture Patents company
in favor Of the government.
The Motion Picture Patents com
pany is holding concern. It was
charged by the government that it
controlled most Of the moving picture
patents in the United States and also
had large interest in the American
rights in foreign patents. The suit
was heard over a year ago by Judge
Oliver B. Dickson, whose decision
is a sweeping victory for the United
States department of justice
It was charged by the government
that the Motion Picture Patents com
pany and other defendants were en-
gagged in interstate and foreign COM
merce in motion pictures, films, cam
eras, exhibiting machines and other
articles and apparatus used in the
motion picture art, in violation of the
antitrust law
The court in its decision says that
all the contracts enumerated in the
governments petition and the combi-
nation therein described were a con-
spiracy in restraint of trade and there
fore illegal and that they constituted,
with the exception of the operations
Of the Melies Manufacturing company,
a monopoly in violation of the anti
trust laws.
Defendants named in the original
petition of complaint besides the No
ton Picture Patents company are:
General Film company, Thomas A.
Edison, Inc, George Kleine of Chicago,
Lubfn Manufacturing company, Pathe
Freres, Selig Polyscope company of
Chicago, Vitagraph company, Frank L.

nedy, William Pelzer, Samuel Long,
J. A. Berst OF Chicago, Sfegmund Lu-
bin, CASTOR Melies, Albert E. Smith,
George K. Spoor of Chicago. W. n.
Selig of Chicago.
With reference to the Melies com.
pany, the court said:
The Melies Manufacturing com.
pany has denied (as have all the de.
fendants) that it was in any sense a
party to the combination charged
We have gone over all the proofs
without finding any which go to max
ing good the charge against this par
ticular defendant. 1t is, therefore
excluded from the findings made and
the petition as against it is dismissed
