THREE COMPANIES

TROUBLE AT MURRAY CAUSE OF
ACTION TAKEN As PRECAU-
TlONARY MEASURE.

Frankfort, KY, Jan. 17.-Three
companies of the Kentucky National
Guard have been ordered home from
the border by the War Department.
Adjt. Gen. j. Tandy Ellis was noti-
fled this evening. They are A Com
pany, First Regiment, Louisville; l.
Company, Second Regiment, Frank
fort, and the Hopkinsville company
of the Third Regiment. The order
is for them TO start Immediately.
Following the trouble at Murray,
when it was learned that no provis.
ional militia could be organized to
preserve the peace in such emergen-
cy, Gen. Ellis was instructed by Gov.
Stanley to request me War Depart
ment 10 send home companies to he
stationed at strategical points in the
State.
The telegram from Secretary of
War Baker said Gen. Funston had
been directed to return to Kentucky
at once the three companies request
ed. The Hopkinsville company viii
be available in case troops are need
ed to protect the Circuit Court dur
ing the trial of the negro at Muir
ray. The Frankfort troops may be
needed here during the reconstruc-
ton of the burned dollhouse at the
Reformatory. In addition to these
needs the Governor and Adjt. Gen.
Ellis considered it safer to have at
least one company from each regi-
ment in the three sections of the
State at railroad points where they
can be quickly modified and hur-
ried to any place on short notice.

Ten thousand men, women and
children have been killed by German
submarines in a warfare that has no
parallel in the history of any nation,
according to Wesley Frost. American
consul at Queenstown. Ireland. who
spoke to a large audience in the
Fargo auditorium Saturday evening.
Speaking under the auspices of the
committee on public information,
Washington, D. c.. and more directly
under the auspices Of the Four
Minute men of the Fargo Home De-
Tense league, Mr.. Frost reviewed the
submarine warfare and its effect in
their entirety, holding the breathless
attention of his audience throughout
the whole address.
The address was highly interesting
from the fact of Mr.. F'rost's exper-
fence as consul in the heart of the
submarine war zone, enabling him
to get his information first hand.
Mr.. Frost's address in full fol-
lows:
Ten thousand men, women, and
children have now been killed by
German submarines. Every month
sees losses equal to those of the
Lusitania horror; and every day the

two or three vessels are fighting for

The ocean south of Ireland is the
most crowded highway of commerce
in the world; and on a fine day, /
have seen merchant ships in all

it happened that as consul at Queens

June, / reported to our government
upon the destruction by submarines
of 81 different ships carrying Am

hand much Of the evidence upon
which America has entered the war;
and placed this evidence on record
in legal form. The witnesses usually
came to the Consulate straight from
the sea, with the cries of dead COM
rades still ringing in their ears; and
their statements were checked up
against one another and
against the dispositions Of the sur
viving officers.

COAL DEALERS AWAIT
OUTCOME OF MESSAGE

Fargo coal dealers are watching
with interest the outcome Of the
message which Gov. Lynn ]. Frazier
wired to H. A. Garfield, head of
the price control committee at Wash
ington, to the effect that there is a
shortage of hard coal in North Da-
kota and that 1t is imperative that
the supply be received in the next
sixty days.
The governor further advised Gar
field that grain cars are coming inta
the state in large numbers when they
should be loaded with coal at the
head of the lakes. Fargo coal deal
ers are of the opinion that the gov
ernors message might have some
weight. Local dealers claim they
have been advised that there is only
half of the normal supply now at the
head of the lakes.
Then, too, because Of the coal
situation being given attention by
state officials early in the summer,
great amount of coal was purchased
during the summer, more than in
previous years.

Ruthless Work Of
HunSubndrineS
Consul Wesley Frost Brings Vivid Pictures of What
Prussan Frightfuness On The High Seas Really
Means-HomicidalM Mania Seems to Possess
U-Boat Crews
WESLEY FROST SAYS:

Ten thousand men, women and
children have been killed by
German submarines.
Any attempt to seek safety
seems to awake homiCidal
mania.
Victims are often drowned
from deck of submarine.
Pictures of victims floundering
or mangled in water are taken
and sent to Germany.
Submarines not always en-
dangered by giving warning to
victims.
Submarine war Is conducted in
cynical contempt of even the
lowest standards of human be-
ings.
Victims sink in from one to
ten minutes. leaving little time
for escape of passengers and
crew.
The Germans are doing hor-
rible things in their submarine
warfare, wilfully rejecting meas
ures that could mitigate and will

centuate its frightfulness.

Hoboken, N. J., Sept. 1O.--What ap-
peared to be fully equipped bomb

police Saturday night, when an ex-
plosion blew of the roof of a small
Guiding in Third street as two de-
tectives were passing. A man who
fed from the structure was seized
by one Of the officers. He gave the
name of Robert Lichenfeldt, and his
age as SO years. He admitted he is
Of German birth.
When Lichenfeldt was questioned
by Chief of Police Hayes, he pro-
fessed ignorance of bombs and explo-
sives. He explained that he was en-
gagged in the business Of melting old
gold and silver and asserted that all
supplies seized by the police were
purchased by him for legitimate pur-
poses. He said we was melting some
gold in crucible and that when he
dropped another piece of gold into the
crucible there was an explosion. This
was a common occurrence, he pro-
tested. The man was paroled' until
this morning when he was to be ar
raigned.

FIRMS ASKED TO KEEP
RECORD POST PARCELS
Government Suggests Installing a
System Of Checking the Receipt of
Parcel Post Packages.

In view of the fact that insured
parcels are now delivered without
record being made thereof at post
Office of addressee, Fargo business
firms have been requested by the
government through the postal de-
partment to install q checking of
the receipts of such parcels
so as to make sure of their answers
as to whether particular article has
been received.
Postmaster George w. wilkinson
invites the attention of patrons OF his
Office to the necessity for extreme
accuracy in such cases. He states
that should any parcel be received
which does not give the name and
address of the sender, record should
be made by the recipient of the num-
Der of the parcel, the date of re-
ceipt and the office of mailing, in
order that, when inquiry is made re-
garding such parcel, the fact Of its
receipt may be reported.

adding those that accentuate its
fr!ghtfulness.
And may / also say that when I
urge you to @Remember the Lusi-
tania," IL is by no means to arouse
hatred or rancor, but only to arouse
wrath and resolution: not to wreak
vindictive vengeance for these enor-
mites, but to end them, TO terminate
this unutterable business!
In this spirit only dare we. in
this dire hour Of war utter our
hearts to the Deitz, in the words OF
Beatrice Barry:
That little children may in safety
ride
The strong clean waters Of Thy
i splendid seas;
That ANTI Christ be no more glori-
fed,
Nor mock Thy justice with. his bias

 Two Harbors. Minn.

N OCb. 1U6n, I0l C.
 Two Harbors, Minn. To the Editor of the News:
 I read in the papers up here the speech of LaFollette to congress. He was trying to square himself concern ing his disloyalty to this country and his loyalty to the Ka1serland his be- loved country across the sea. And it firmly convinced me, that he is past master in evasion.
 He did not once mention his treason. able utterances in his speech at St Paul. He tried to justify himself by stating that the constitution of the U. s. allowed Americans the privilege of free speech and free press.
 Certainly, MT. Kaiserlte honorable discussion is allowable, but it does not give United StateI Senators any more right than common citizens to make use of seditious, reasonable utterances, to injure and defame our government. And it is so much more an offence, for a man that has been honored, by the citizen voters of the country, with seat in the governing and law making houses of our Govern menU.
 For one thing, he said the war must go on to the end, but not undisclosed certainly MT. Kaiserite. The whole world knows why America took hand in this war. This German patriot seems to think that the United States ought to inform Germany just what this country will exact in peace contract, by the contending nations, in this war; ! guess not MT Kaiserite. But you and the Gern nan government will soon learn.
 You were right in one statement. You said no conviction was stronger with t'e people today than that there must be no future wars except in case of invasion. Right you are, and right i in line with President Wilson and the American people, and there must be no more numbering and piracy on the seas of the world.
 Nations have had to fight before to attain peace, and when we think of ] how our forefathers struggled and fought to establish this glorious repub- lie, and the Liberty and prosperity as we'll as the greatness of our advance ment in building up the freest and most liberal country on the globe. Does it seems as if any American could stand back with folded hands looking indifferently on this war. No American will, and I believe this war will be a great victory for democracy and the common people of the world.

PariIa of Oil Caruoas.

The explosion of vessels carrying pc. troleum frequently occurs. and this is generally caused not by the cargoes of oil which they contain, but by the in fiammable vapor which is left behind after the huge tanks of the ships have been emptied.
 It is difficult to remove all the oil that adheres to the sides of the tank, and the evaporation of the oil film left in them after they have been pumped out takes place with great rapidity. Moreover the vapor thus formed min- gles readily with the air and is capable of rendering more than 2,000 times its own volume of the latter infiamma- ble. A spark may thus cause a fear full explosion in the hold of a ship that Is apparently empty.
 A film of petroleum spreading over the surface of the water has been known to produce enough of this vola- tile and dangerous vapOr to cause a conhagration, by which a number of ships lying in a harbor have been sud- denly enwrapped in roaring flames as if by a stroke of magic.
