liberty war loan oy subscribing
$4.617532, 800. an oversubscription by
54 per cent of the $4,000, 900, 900 ask
ed, and only 1888. 100000 less than
the $4,000 100000 maximum fixed by
the treasury

showed that every federal reserve dis
trict exceeded its quota and s.400, 600
persons subscribed in the big war
financing operation, which Secretary
McAdoo described as the greatest ever
attempted by any government.
Half of the oversubscribed sum will
be accepted, making the actual total
of bonds to be issued $3,S0S,786,1 $50.
Ninety mine per cent Of the subscrib-
ers will receive the amount for which
they bargained, all subscriptions for
$4,000 or less being allotted on the
full and those above that amount be-
| ing pared down in varying proportions
ranging from a 80 per cent allowance
on subscriptions between $4,000 and
500, 900 to 40 per cent for the largest
single subscription of $50,O0O,000.
McAdoo Much Pleased.
"The success of the second liberty
loan, like that OF the first. Is a dis
tinct triumph for the people of the
United States" said Secretary Nc
Adoo, announcing the loan results to-
night. "It not only demonstrated
their ability, patriotism and resources.
but augurs the certain success of any
future loans that may be offered by
the government"
The secretary added denial of re-
ports that the third loan would be
solicited in January, 1913.
"In view of the large oversubscrip-
ton to the second liberty loan" he
said, II am glad to state that this will
not be necessary"
It has been generally understood
that the third loan would be sought
probably in late February or early in
March next year.

tions were for sums above $4,000,

LABOR SECRETARY
WARNS SHERIFF
TO OBSERVE LAW
Wheeler, in Reply to William
B. Wilson, Says Office Is
Conducted for Protection of
Law abiding Citizens,

Bisbee, Ariz, Nov. 7.--One official
reference to the l. w. w. deportations
on July IL was the result Of the presi-
dents mediation commissions visit
here. 1t consisted of a letter from
Secretary of Labor W. B. Wilson as
chairman of the commission, to Sheriff
Harry G. Wheeler, who directed the
deportations on July IL, and who has
since been in charge of the law and
order of the Warren district.
Sheriff Wheeler's attention is di-
rected to practices which are sub
versive of industrial peace and Ge-
malls Of lawful right"
He is asked to give his assurance
that the following requirements of
law be respected:
Letter to Sheriff.
II. The right to unimpeded ad-
mittance into the Warren district Of
all who seek entrance into 1t in
lawful and peacable manner should
be respected. Therefore, all deputy
sherffs now serving as patrol or pick
cts on the outskirts of the district for
the purpose of passing judgment on
the right of anyone to enter the dis
trict should at once be withdrawn
from such service, nor should deputies
hereafter be stationed for such pur-
pose. This, of course, is in no wise in
tended to limit the authority of the
sheriff, under the usual restrictions
of the law to utilize deputies for the
detection and prevention of acts de-
clared crimes by the statutes of the
state of Arizona, or of the United
States. 1t is clearly to be understood,
however, that this authority of the
sheriff, as the law officer of the coun-
ty, is not to be used by any of his
deputies as a means of interfering
with anyone entering the district be-
cause he was among those deportcd oil
July IL, or because he is deemed to
be a sympathzer with those deported.
or simply because his presence is
deemed to be undesirable.
"2. The right of all persons free
ly to move about in the Warren dis
trict or to continue to reside within
it must be scrupulously respected, ex.
cept In so far as such right is re-
stricted by the orderly process Of law
Wheeler Stands Pat.
In reply Sheriff Wheeler, after as
suming full responsibility for any crit
icism on past actions, concludes:
with due regard to the necessity
Of apprehending the many slackers,
Of apprehending those guilty of viola
tions of the state and government pro-
.hibition laws, | shall endeavor to full
fill my obligations in manner best
calculated to further the best inter-
ests of our country. our community.

delegation OF Cossacks appeared at
the Winter palace and told Premier
Kerensky that they were disposed to
carry out the governments orders
concerning the guarding of the capi-
tal." but they insisted that If hostil-
tiles commenced it would be necessary
for their forces to be supplemented by
infantry units. They further demand
cd that the premier define the gov
ernments attitude toward the Bolshe-
v:kis, citing the release from custody
of some of those who had been arrest
ed for participation in the July dis
turbances. The Cossacks virtually
made demand that the government
proclaim the Bolshevikis outlaws.
Premier ~ Weak.
The premier replied:
Il find it difficult to declare the
Bolshevkis outlaws; the attitude of
the government toward the present
Eolsheyiki activities Is known"
The premier explained that those
who had been released were on bail
and that any of them found partici-
Eatng in new offcnses against peace
would be severely dealt with.
Numerous precautions have been
taken by Premier Kerensky to
th~art the threatened outbreak of
the Bolsheviki. Tho soldiers guarding
the government buildings have been
replaced by men from the officers
training schools. Small guards have
been placed at the embassies. Tho

are ready to come t. Petrugrad to

There has been no indication as to

Nor is there any information con-
cerning where General Cadorna, re-

Radical Reduction in
Price of Bread Said
Unlikely by Hoover

Washington. Sept. 1. 49, Prospects
of an early and radical reduction In

day when Herbert G. Hoover. tho

the best the public may expect Is n
sixteen-ounce loaf for 10 cents, or
possibly cents.
The S-oent loaf of sixteen ounces
Is possible, Mr.. Hoover said. only If
bakers. retailers and consumers
unite to eliminate wasteful distribu-
tton methods and cooperate to OBJ
tain a standardized loaf,
The price of family flour, Mr.
Hoover said, should be reduced at
the present price of wheat at least
81 or 50 a barrel. Bakers flour,
however, will sell little cheaper than
Mt present.
The country's millers have agreed
to hold their profits on flour to 20
cents barrel. Under this agree
ment, Mr.. Hoover said, flour should
retail in New York at from S11.75
to S12.75 q barrel.
The price OF bakers patent flour
to small bakers and retailers, he said
should be from $10.35 to S11.25,
The average retail price of family
patent in New York from April to
August has been 1856. At present
bakers patent is selling in New
York to Jobbers at $1O.65 which
would make it cost small bakers and
retailers about S11.

Oliver Chilled Plow Company
Plans Addition to Care For
Increasing Business

In order to to take care OF it's in
creased business in this city, tho
Oliver Chilled Plow Company will
erect a warehouse on Union Square.
adjoining their present building. "A.
permit was taken out yesterday.
For several days rumors nave been
afioat that the oliver Chilled Plow
Company had contemplated the erec-
tiCn of a manufacturing plant in Har-
risburg, and would manufacture trac-
tors for the United States Govern
ment. This was denied.
The firm for some time held lease
on ground owned by the Philadelphia
and Reading Railway Company on
Union Square. Business has increased
so rapidly that more room became
necessary. This, with the belief that
there will be still further increase
next year. brought about negotiations
for lease on additional ground. The
lease was closed yesterday.
The main plant of the Oliver Chilled
Plow Company is at South Bend. Ind.
plant at Hamilton, Ontario, where
government contracts are looked
after. Harrisburg is the eastern dis
tributing point, and the company
wants to be in shape to take care of
a largely increased stock at this point.
Last year there were 900 tractor
plows handled in this city in addi-
tion to other business. 1t is believed
that next years business will be dou-
BILE this amount.
