some time was contaminated here

of J. L. and E. B. Grandin, sold their
entire land holdings in the vicinity

Portland.
The purchase price of the farm,
which comprises ten quarters sections
Of Goose River Valley land, was $780,
100000, which was paid in cash by Mrs.
Brunsdale. This places the value of
the land at SIS per acre.
This was formerly the home of the
Grandins before their acquisition of
considerable wealth from farming op-
erations, whereupon they moved to
Boston. They have expended large
sum of money on buildings, landscape
gardening, ETC., making this one of
the most modern and we'll planned
sets of farm buildings to be found
anywhere.
Mrs. Brunsdale, who owns splen
did residence in Portland, at which
she makes her home, is considered
one of the largest land owners in the
state, owning approximately a town.

Trail and Steele counties, which if

Vatican Has No Official
Report of Arrest of
Cardinal in Brussels
By Associated Press

Rome, Jan. THE Vatican up to
a late hour last night had received no
official confirmation of the reported
arrest at Brussels Of Cardinal Mercier
because of a pastoral letter issued by
him in which he is said to have ad-
Vised Belgians not to give allegiance
to the German administration.
Pope Benedict, through Cardinal
Gasparri, the papal secretary of state,
has Instituted anxious inquiries re-
garding the report but because OF CEN
sorship or other causes no official
communication regarding the reported
arrest has come through.
The unofficial rumor of the arrest
of member of the Sacred College,
have, however, caused a profound i'm
preston and the hope is expressed
that the report is untrue.
In vatican circles it is stated that
should the report be officially confirm
ed it is likely that the Pope will pro-
test, even though. by so doing, he
should run the risk of somewhat en-
dangering his position of absolutely
outside and above the conflict in or
der that his offer of mediation at an
opportune moment. might be likely
to succeed.

BRITISH DRAF' 7 | REPLY
To AMERICAN PROTEST
Cabinet Will Consider Two Notes
Designed to Solve Ship
ping Dispute

London, Jan. 1.-THE British re-
sponse to the United States note of
protest against England's manner of
detalning American ahips bound for
neutral ports has been drafted. 1t
VIII ne considered before the Cabinet
To-day and forwarded to Washington
PROBABLY before the end or the week.
Ihere viii, in reality, be two notes
or reply. Tho first will deal with the
general situation, answering America s.
representations in generalities and
broadly outlining the British position,
as well as expressing England's
friendly feelings and her appreciation
for the friendly spirit of the United
States note
This will be followed by a further
note, which is also in the course of
preparation, taking up the shipping
problem in greater detail, and in ali
probability making suggestions look
ing toward solution. The news of
Washington's latest regulation con
corning the inspection of cargoes was
well received. In official circles il is
considered that the application of
these regulations will minimize the
necessity of such thorough search as
mas been necessary until now.
DO Everything Reasonable
The reply to the American note, IL
is said, in well informed quarters, is
wholly conciliatory and shows a dis
position on the <.ert of England to do
everything within reason to avert de-
lay to American shipping ut a time
when freight rates arc high and con-
sequently loss of time is reverted to
the owner.
England wishes to do everything in
IT'S power consistent with the proper
safeguarding of the interests of the
allies to facilitate world trade and
stimulate commerce, paralyzed as it
Is by war conditions. Consequently.
1t is declared, there is no disposition
on the part of England to protest
against the purchase of German ves
sells by Americans where the sales are
genuine and the ships are not used
so as to avoid what might reasonably
he called the consequences of beIliger-
ency.
The use OF transferred German
ships in the cotton trade with Ger
many probably would call forth oh
1ections from the allies. although cot
ton is not contraband. because the
allies, 1T is said, would regard such
use as roundabout means of escap-
inG the effects of the war.
