Street Talk Favors Giving Residents
Opportunity to Show Choice Of

COST WOULD BE BUT LITTLE

Considerable street talk about the
city has developed an idea that in
order to decide definitely where to
locate the new Federal building, it
should be put up to vote of the peo-
pie at the coming city election.
The cost would be slight and it
would decide definitely which of the
two sites would be most desired by
the voters of the city. TIL two sites
from which our citizens have to
choose are the%lots opposite the court
house, on Beltrami avenue, and the
block on Second street, between Min

GERMAN TORS SHELL
TRENCHES OF ALLIES

Paris, Feb: 5:-According to in
formation given out by the war de-
partment this afternoon, German avi-
ators travelling in sQuadrons, have
been raining shells upon the allied
trenches in Belgium, and German
monoplanes have bombarded the town
of Fumes, six miles inside the: allied
lines. At the same time German ar
tillery dropped shells from great
distance but no damage resulted.
Several German aviators passed over
the allied trenches near Newport,
their objective being apparently Dun
kirk where a serial Of aerial attacks
is expected. Dispatches from Dun
kirk, however, failed to mention their
arrival. In the Argonnes region the
scene of most desperate infantry
fighting has been going on during the

ENGLAND ACCEPTS
GERMAN CHALLENGE;
U. 5. SHIP IS sunk.

London, Feb 5.--After conferences
held today by the admiralty, follow
ing Germany's declaration that all
waters around England and Ireland
will be closed after February 10, the
announcement was made this after
noon that England will accept the
challenge and will defy Germany to
attempt to starve out England
through sinking of all merchant yes
sells in these waters. g.. $50
1t is believed that British ships will
be ordered to patrol the waters and re-
lieve all fears of merchants and ship
owners, by sweeping them clear of
all German submarines.
Admiralty officials frankly declare
that Germany's declaration is nothing
more than bluff, and believe that
Germany will not be able to follow
out the threat.
The English are watching the
United States. The Chronicle says
that ship flying the stars and
stripes has been sunk near Atrecity
They say that if United States ship
was sunk by Germans it would mean
deep insult and probably war. A
formal protest will be made, it is be-
lieved, when the proclamation reaches
Washington.

ONE OF MUCH SEVERITY

St. Paul, Mimi, Feb. s. --Legisla-

for telephone directories, that shall
carry no advertising, being distribu-
ted to all telephone subscribers every
two months. Provision is made that
no toll charges on calls shall be made
between cities whose limits adjoin,
and that physical connections shall
be made between all companies.
