Corn.-Tradng was again OF small
proportions and operators were stlll IN
an apathetic frame of mind, pending
new Developments. The undertone was
easier. however, largely in sympathy
with oats, and final quotations were un-
changed 10 sc lower. Receipts at prl-
mary points were considerably smaller
than a week ago. owing TO stormy
weather throughout the corn belt The
efforts on the part of the food admin
istration to bring about an increased
m movement to the terminal markets have
so far been frustrated by the bad
weather. The trade, however, believes
that unless the conditions continue abb
normally bad there will be an increase
in the near future.
Western cash markets were easier
and there seemed TO be a prevailing eX-
pectation Of a further downward re-
vision in the cash position. The situa-
ton abroad continues strong, but little
attempt has been made to make export
purchases, owing to the fact that corn
is not moving, and corn OF an export
quality commands high premiums. In
the local cash market prices were
easier, in sympathy with the West.

Will Ask for Reward.

Virginia, Minn., Nov. 20.-Sher-
iff John Meining is expected to go
before the St. Louis county commits
sioners and ask that reward of ST.
900 be: offered for the arrestof the
murderers OF the two Alars and Pri-
tes who were brutally slain with an
ak and knife as they slept in the
Alar home, North side, here last
Thursday night. The various clues
in the mystery when pursued ap-
pear to yield nothing and the case
is the most battling ever presented
on the range or in St. Louis county.
The war feud theory as to the mo-
tive still holds, although some cling
to the robbery idea. All Of the sus-
poets taken into custody last week
have been released.
Two Eveleth Suspects.
Two Eveleth suspects, Nick and
Tom Mazar, brothers, were arrested
last night by Deputy Sheriff O'Dea
and are being held. They are Croa-
tians and said to have bad records,
but just how they are thought to
be implicated has not developed.
They will be put through a severe
grilling today. There seems to be a
sort of underground method of trans
mitting news among the Croatians
on the range that puzzles the auth
critics. It develops that when Off
GERS went to Gilbert to look into
a possible clew they found Croa-
tians who already knew of the ar
rest of the two Eveleth suspects, yet
no announcement of the arrest had
been made.
Matt Ivankovich, aged Al, cousin
of Mrs. Alar, who has been in GUS
tody since Friday morning, was re-
leased Sunday after long grillfng
at the county building. Ivankovich,
who served twelve years in SttllWa-
ter in connection with & Duluth
murder, speaks fair English.
Mike Bronzovich and Matt and j.
Cronovich, neighbors of the Alars
and Pritec, who were held as sus-
poets, were freed Saturday after
noon.
The authorities have cleared up
some angles of the case, but are far
from a solution of the crime. One
theory is that enemies Of the Alars
hired two or three men to do the
killing. It is practically certain
that the three murders were not
committed single handed.
Deputy Sheriffs o. Hoel and John
Movern of Duluth came to work on
the case Deputy Movern is a for
mer Eveleth resident and speaks
CrOatian.
Assistant County Attorney Rich
ard M. Funck will come from Duluth
and Assistant County Attorney F.
l.. Boyle, who has been in the Twin
Cities, may also do some investigat-
ing. The three victims have not
been buried.

BEMIDJI PAYS tribute
TO SLAYER'S VICTIM

Bemidji paid it's farewell tribute
to Oscar Nelson this afternoon when
hundreds turned out to do homage
to the young man who had been
resident of Bemidji for the past
seven years. The body was sent to
his home in Erskine for burial, the
funeral at that place to be held to-
morrow under Masonic auspices.
Headed by the Bemidji band, with
which the dead young man often
played, long procession Of members
of the Masonic order, Order of the
Eastern Star and the Elks escorted
the casket from the 1bertson under
taking parlors to the Presbyterian
church, in which services were con-
Quoted by Rev. l.. p. Warford, pas
tor of the church. 1t was the ar
rangement made by the dying man
and the great crowd which gathered
to pay it's last respects was unable
to be accommodate in the small edi-
flee.
Mr.. Nelson was member of the
Masons and also the Elks in Be-
midi. That he was held in high es-
TEEN among his brethren and others
was mutely attested by the profuse
floral tributes.
The pail bearers were members OF
the Masonic body. Oscar Erickson,

Dr. w. K. Denison. =
At the church, Rev. Warford,'

London, Nov. 20.-A direct and
unequivocal statement to the entire
world is the big objective behind
President Wilson's advocacy of the
present interallied' war council.
By The United Press is able to make
this statement on the basis of in
formation from unquestioned auth
J ority.
The United States desires the
council to insure such declaration
made binding upon all allies. AM
erica's immediate aim is to induce
every allied nation to throw every
card upon the table, state every de-
mand and present every claim and
from the lot to- select those which
are basic.
These objectives are to then be
proclaimed to the entire world, to

alike. " - :.s ss,..ss = ''-'->
This is not as a peace move but
as a war move calculated to demoo'
ratize the entire allied war making
machine.
The evidence is all ready forth
coming that more discomfort is
caused by the ruling class within
Germany by President Wilson's ap'
peal on June IA to the German peo-
yple over the heads of the kaiser and
his hand picked government, than
by any single military blow struck
during the year 1917.
