LAST CONFERENCE May
Be HELD TODAY; NOT TO
DISCUSS WITHDRAWAL
White CLAIMS ALL
hONORS AS AXE man
Insists That He Sent Wife for Wood
splitter and Held Lawyer and
Barber At Bay.

John F. White called at the office
Of The Herald this morning and in
sisted that he alone was the party
who brandished the axe and routed
o. g. Knudson. proprietor of bar
Der shop in the Central hotel, South
Fourth street, and local attorney
from Knudson's place of business yes
terday.
Mr.. White stated that he sent his
wife. Mrs. Lizsie White. former pro-
prietress Of the Central hotel and
barber shop. for the axe and that he
alone did all the fiourishing after 1t
was delivered to him and kept the
barber and lawyer out Of the place.
The impression was gained at first
that Mrs. White was marching on the
retreating foe when she hove into
view with the axe on her shoulder
but Mr.. White wants all these honors.
The trouble arose over the fact that
Mr.. and Mrs. White would not permit
the holder of the sheriff's certificate
of sale, of Mrs. Whites property to do
his duty.

6. n. STATION
AT ~U". LOOTED
Burglars Take SO in Cash,
But Shy at Dainty Togs
in Trunks.

Burglars broke into the Great Nor
thern station at the University Of
North Dakota some time last evening
and escaped with 50 in cash.
The thugs gained entrance to the
place by smashing a window: One
plain fact stands out in bold relief.
They were not women, for they dis
dained to take along some choice bits
Of feminine wearing apparel.
They broke into three trunks be-
longing to Miss Jennie Hale and Miss
Bernadine Swarthout. both university
students.
After rummaging around in the
lingerie for a whole. the burglars de-
cided they couldn't wear the garments
and that an attempt to sell the same
would almost amount to suicide; SO
they contented themselves with the
IS in cash which they secured from
the cash register and betock them
selves off.
The authorities have been notified
of the theft and are working on sew
eral clues. However. no arrests had
been made at late hour this after
noon.
The theft was not discovered until
this morning when Max Taubert, the
agent, arrived at the station.

Berlin, April 27.-The crisis in Ger

passed and there will be no break in
diplomatic relations due to past
events. The United Press is able 20
day to make the foregoing statement
on the most excellent authority.
Pending the present negotiations, it
is understood that submarines will op-

Of repetition Of the acts complained
Of by the United States government.
The danger point is believed to have
passed Monday when information con-

reached the foreign office.
Ambassador Bernstorff has been
given wide discretion and he doubt
less played a large part in guiding
matters past the crisis. The tense at

Washington, April 27.--Ambassa-
dors Bernstorff and Gerard are doing
their utmost to avoid a breach be-
tween Germany and America.
While Gerard has informed Wash
initon officials concerning the pro-
gress that is being made in negotia-
tions and that some official word
from Germany will be sent by Satur-
day, Bernstorff is striving to obtain
an adjustment of the differences ex-
listing between the two governments.
1t is believed that the activities of
the ambassadors are having favor
able effect upon the administration
heads.
In view of the disposition of Ger,
man officials to effect a settlement
Of the controversy, it is believed un-
likely that the president will demand
greater haste.
Press opinion in Germany is so di
vided that an accurate guage of news
