CONGRESSMEN FIGHTING
HARD FOR NAVY PORK

Washington, March 20.-The rival
claims of five navy yards to prefer.
ment in the appropriation for en-
largement and equipment to be made
in connection with the national de-
Tense program were argued today be-
fore the house naval committee.
Senator PoindeXter and Represent
ative Humphrey of Washington ap-
pearing in favor of the bill passed BY
the senate Friday, to make $2,065, 900
available for improvement of the Bre-
merton yards at Puget Sound, attack
ed the statement Of Rear Admiral
Benson, chief of operations, before
the committee last week, that the
capital plant be located on the Paci-
fic at San Francisco. Arguments for
development of the yards at Norfolk,
Charleston and Philadelphia, respect
lively, we're made by Representative
Holland Of Virginia, Whaley Of South
Carolina and Ware of Pennsylvania.
Proponents of the Bremerton plant
said that as more than $4,000
has been spent there, the yards could
be put into capital condition for a
sum which would be nominal compar-
ed to the cost of improvements Ad-
miral Benson proposed for San Fran
cisco. Representative Holland de-
clared Norfolk occupied the best
strategical position on the Atlantic
and in time of war would be the only
refuge in which warships could be
repaired in time of war.

San Antonio, March 20.--Erancisco
Villa may be forced into fight with
the Carranza troops within the next
36 hours, if reports coming TO General
Eunston's headquarters, both from
General Pershng and Mexican sourc-

General Pershings report was fol
lowed, however, by the unofficial re-
ports that Villa was still fighting at
Namiquipa, south of La Cruces.

If the Carranza forces win in the
fighting that was said to be continu-

ing southwark, or leave the road and
head for the Santa Maria mountains
that parallel the road to the east, or
to the Oriental range on the west side.
This, according to reports, is impract-
icable, owing to the presence, in the
rear, Of Mexican troops, who forced
him to turn northward from La Cru.
CeS
The detachment that is headed
south on the road along which Villa
was reported advancing, is one Of
three subdivisions operating south of
Casas Grandes.
Troops Split Up.
One column was sent toward Lake
Babicora, 20 miles south Of Casas
Grandes, and somewhat to the west.
The other two detachments moved as
one to Galena, south and east of Casas
Grandes and there separated, one con-
timing in 2 more easterly direction to-
ward Carmen, 65 miles from Casas
Grandes, and the other south toward
La Cruces, which now has become the
advance base of the eXpeditiOnary
forces.
Movements Hidden.
Just where General Pershing is was
not announced, but he is directing the
work Of the three detachments and by
means of scouts is attempting to keep
in communication
1t was known at headquarters, how
ever that divergent directions will
make this difficult; also the noun
famous character of the country will
afford elevation that will make more
feasible communication by signaling.
From all points to which the three
detachmenls are moving, Villa has
been reported in the vicinity. Al
though it is realized that he could not
have been at all points where he was
said to have been, the three detach-
ments will be SO widely separated by
the time they have gone a short dist
ance farther that it was regarded as
almost certain that one of them would
come in contact with him. The force
moving toward La Cruces was only
short distance north Of Valley, %
miles north Of La Cruces, this after

DANGER Of FLOOD
TOLD BY FIRE
WHISTLE BLASTS
Warnings Will Be Sent to All the
People From Hughes Electric
Plant.
RIVER MAY GO'z-f'->=5 ts@-As''s't
= OVER BANKS TODAY

The ice in the Missouri river at
Bismarck broke up yesterday, at 3:30
p m. The ice broke for a distance
Of about One-half mile above the
bridge, and passed through under the
bridge and lodged down the river
near 1Sibley island. Other ice from
above moved down and lodged against
the piers of the bridge and remained
there until we went to press. The
stage of the river at the time the ice
broke was 1872, but fell two feet
when the ice passed out, rising again
slowly until at 1000 p. N. last night
a stage of 1913 was reached. The
Agaard and other bottoms along the
river south of town, as well as some
of the meadows near the river above
town were under water last evening.
Reports received from various sourc
es indicate that the Missouri is open
in places as follows: Mobridge, S..
d.; Ft. Yates, Cannon Ball, Bismarck.
Stanton. Deapolis, and at all points
above Elbowoods. At the latter
point a stage of water higher than
was ever recorded in the past 40
years prevails. The rise at that
point Sunday night was IS feet, MAX
ing total rise of % feet This rise
was caused by a gorge of ice some
distance below the Eerthold agency.
Doubtless other and smaller gorges
have formed between Bismarck and
Elbowoods, and as these let loose
will force the ice out below, and will
undoubtedly cause a serious overflow
at Bismarck within the next &c hours.
All residents living in the country
near the river have been warned to
move out, as have the residents in
,Mandan in the extremely low parts
of the town. Should a sudden rush
of water be likely. warnings will be
sent to all residents of Bismarck to
move to higher ground by the blow
ing of II blasts of the whistle Of the
Hughes Electric company's plant.
The Northern Pacific Railway COM
pany's roundhouse at Mandan will
blow like warning to residents of
that city.

DR.. G. Nv. Harris, who for the last
ten years has been pastor OF the
First Presbyterian church, presented
his resignation to his congregation
Sunday morning, to accept the pas
torate OF the Bozeman, Mont, Pres
byterian church.
The church was crowded at the
morning service; the congregation
anxiously waiting for the announce
ment which he previously had stated
he would make. Although it was
generally understood he expected to
accept the Bozeman call, yet many in
his congregation had hoped he would
decide to stay, since every induce,
ment was offered him to do so. A
delegation of over half hundred men
of the congregation called at the
manse during last week and petition
ed him to remain. Many in the con-
gregation, Sunday, were visibly af-
fected by The announcement. DR..
Harris has not only endeared himself
to members of his congregation, but
to the entire city, and many regrets
are heard because of his leaving.

sive Again in the Galicia
District.

London, March 20.-Heavy battles
have been in progress northwest and
northeast of Verdun and on the north
ern part Of the russian front, where
the Russians are keeping up their
strong offensive against the Germans.
In all these zones the losses have
been large, while the changes in posi-
tios have been relatively unimportant.
Northwest of Verdun, in the sector
of Avocourt- Mallencourt, the Germans,
after heavy bombardment, made a
vigorous infantry attack in which IL
quid fire was employed against the
French front. A fresh German diyi-
sion brought up participated in the ac-
tion The French, however, with
their curtain of fire aided by machine
guns and infantry, put down the at
tack with heavy casualties TO the as
sauting forces, except in the eastern
part of the Mallencourt woods, some
miles from Verdun, where the Ger
mans made slight progress.
Heavy Losses. ... ..-.
Berlin reports the repulse also with
heavy losses Of the French, who at
tackled the village of Maux, northeast
of Verdun. Elsewhere around the
fortress there have been only inter-
mittent bombardments and continu.
alton of fights in the air between
French and German aviators.
Another powerful German attack,
this time between AvOcourt and NAL
lencourt, west of the Meuse, resulted
in heavy losses to the Germans, ac-
. scordingsto the official communication
issued by the French war Office to-
night A fresh division brought up
from a distant point was used in this
operation, which was characterized by
the employment of jet liquid flames.
At one point east of the Mallencourt
woods, the Germans made some slight
progress.

Although Berlin claims that the
Germans again have repulsed the Rus
slams in repeated attacks with strong
forces around POstavy and between
lakes Narocz and Dreswiaty, Petro
grad reports a German check south of
lake Dreswiaty, and the capture of
German trenches in the lake Narocz
region. Several villages in this dist
rict also have been taken by the Rus
slams. .-....
In Galicia, the Russians have cap
tured Austrian trenches and bridge

HEARD SCREAMS COME FROM M'DANIEL HOME
 AFTER HIS RETURN
Witness in Trial of Prosecutor for Murder Tells of Events on Night of Wife's Tragic Death.
(By Review Leased Wire)


 ST. JOSEPH, Nov. 2l.-Two wom- en witnesses in the trial of Prosecut- or Oscar D. Mcdaniel for the alleged murder of Mrs Harriet Moss McDan- iel. his wife, testified to having heard screams from the Mcdaniel home the night the wife was slain, and fixing the time as having been earlier than Mcdaniel had said he had left his call from an uptown saloon.
 The women were neighbors of the murdered wife. One. Miss Caroline Berghoff, employe of an insurance company. lived across the street from the Mcdaniel home. The other, Miss Edith Buell., a stenographer, resided a few hundred feet south of the pro- secutor's residence. Each testified that she was certain the screams were not those of any but a human heinz, although neither was able to distinguish whether they were from man or a woman.
 They were horrible and startled me" said Miss Buell.. Tt sounded as if some one had been choked and could not have been made by cat" Miss Berehoff testified in refutation of the defense's attorneys claim that the noise was the cry of an animal.
 When Miss Buell. was called. Me naniol leaned forward in his chair and the crowd craned for sight of the ~'uch heralded witness Her exami- nation was short. She testified she had retired shortly after 10 o'clock and was awakened by a scream from the direction of the Mcdaniel home about 30 minutes later. then shortly after 12. she heard four revolver shots from the direction spoken of as hay ing been the scene of the receiver duel Mcdaniel has told as having been had after he returned home af- ter answering the bogus telephone call Her testimony was shaken some what by cross examination when she declared she first thought the noise was that of cat but that her sister after investigation. had told her the noise was not of such origin.
 The questioning of Miss Buell. was marked by continuous cross firing of objections and argument between members of the opposing counsel
 Miss Berghoff fixed the time of the scream as about 10:45 o'clock and the number of revolver shots as five She also told of having heard Mir McDan- iel return home in his motor car. drive it up to the garage and then, as the witness said. quite a little while aferward" she heard the revolver shots.
 During the examination of Miss Berghoff. the accused prosecutor was on his feet several times whispering into the ears of his attorneys and ap- parently suggesting questions and ob- jections.
