The twice-a-week Twin Falls times. (Twin Falls, Idaho) 1916-1918, 1917-10-23

At the Oregon Short Line depot yes
terday it was stated that the outlook
for the securing of a sufficient supply
of refrigerator cars was not very
promising. The local officials yester-
day received notice issued by the pub
lie utilities commission to fruit grow
ers in this state that they may use
box cars, when refrigerator cars are
not available, in which to ship their
fruit and can put either coal or oil
stoves in them to keep up the tenn
perature. This is considered impor-
tant information to shippers at the
present time when they are hard
pressed to secure rolling stock with
which to send their fruit to market.
1t was stated in Boise that it came
to the attention of the commission dur
ing the week that agents of the rail-
roads were notifying shippers that
that there was an embargo on box
cars and that they could not be used
for the shipment of fruit. The COM
mission Immediately took the matter
up with the heads of the Oregon Short
Line railroad and asked for an expla-
nation. 1t was declared by them that
no such instructions had been issued
but that instructions of the road spec
!
for the shipment of fruit when the
cars were outfitted.
The instructions are as follows:
please instruct all agents to dis
continue taking from shippers or from
connecting lines perishable freight
when loaded in common box cars un-
/ less cars are lined with false floor and
sides and equipped with stoves and a
man in charge"
The local office in Twin Falls said
that nobody had yet taken advantage
of the box car offer, though it was
assumed that they would
Secretary j. K. Stubs OF the Twin
Falls Commercial club got busy in an
effort to secure storage room for
fruit. He found some cellars which
could be used for apples, whose own
ers hesitated about letting people fill
them with potatoes. Over cellars are
too hot for spuds. He is still at work
trying to get storage room
The coal situation was reported as
satisfactory at the local office of the
o. S. L.. and the belief expressed that
there would be enough on hand to
tide people over.

Hastings Death
Shocks President
Chief Executive Sends Coincidence to
Parents OF The Dead Wisconsin
Senator.

WASHINGTON, Oct 22-"I grieve
with you with all my heart" said
President Wilson in a telegram HE
was one of the most conscientious pub
lie servants 1 have ever known and
had entered a career of usefulness to
his state and to his country, which
was full OF the highest promise"
A committee of senators is being
organized today to attend the funeral
of the late Senator Paul o. Husting,
shot accidentally by his brother while
duck shooting in Wisconsin.
Senator La Toilette this afternoon
issued this statement:
THE state of Wisconsin and the
country will be greatly shocked to
learn of the tragic death of Senator
Husting.
I'm his brief service in the senate
he had impressed his colleagues and
the country with his industry, his
courage and devotion to his convic-
tions at any cost or sacrifice to him
self
He was better known in Wiscon-
sin, where for years he was the lead
er of his party in the state senate.
His record in that body as an able,
constructive legislator elected him to
the United States senate.
HE was a serious student of pub
lie questions, a plain direct, fearless
public servant. My sense of personal
loss is deep and abiding"

put one over" according to the above
telegram sent last night to The TIMES
and received this morning from the
state committee. For the first time
since the war began the county at
the capital has come across" with
the amount demanded before this
county. This has been because of
the circumstances. The farmers here
have been unusually busy and the
county organization this week has
been crippled by reason of the illness
of Chairman e. j. Finch and the de-
parture of his first assistant, Sheriff
r. NJ. Kendall, who was called to
Boise on official business, which will
result in a trip to the Golden
State"
There will be a great effort made
tomorrow in this city by all the work
ers to clean up all the ground not
covered. All workers are supposed to
get out in the afternoon and solicit
everyone, whether in their particular
district, or not, so that nobody in the
city will be overlooked
international News Service dis
patches today indicate that the liberty
loan probably will be subscribed by
the close of the holiday tomorrow ev-
ening. Many cities have furnished
their quota. To make sure, however
the campaign will continue until the
close of business Saturday night.

Twin Falls Gets
Praise From Brady
Junior Senator Says 1t Gave Four
Times as Much to Red Cross as
Washington.

That Twin Falls county gave four
times as much per capita in the Red
Cross drive as the City of Washington
and that this fact was freely discussed
in the capital city was among the
things that United States Senator
James II. Brady told the banqueters
at Pocatello Friday night when they
met at the Yellowstone hotel to honor
the Red Cross representative from
Southern and Southeastern Idaho who
met there during the afternoon. Sen
ator Brady spoke warmly of the work
of Idaho in general and of Twin Falls
in particular.
Mrs. e. ]. Ostrander. first vice pres
ident, and Mrs. f. L. Macvicar, secre-
tary. attended the meeting.
During the afternoon a considerable
delegation of Red Cross representa-
tives from various chapters of this
section met at the rooms of the Com
mercial club for the purpose of go
ing over organization plans as out
lined by f. p Foisie, director of civil
ian relief, and c. d. Stimson, manager
of the northwestern division of Red
Cross work.
The speakers were introduced by
Dr. John Hallowell Dickinson, who
met them at the recent Portland con
ference, and the two speakers proved
most interesting and entertaining talk
ers and they gave a great insight t.
the work of civilian relief and the
best methods to be followed out b.
/ local organizations.
The session was held here for thu
benefit of a dozen or more chapters
of the Red Cross and the joint con
ference saved considerable time anC
the workers were well advised as [,
the duties to be performed.
DIR. Minnie Howard, president of tn
Pocatello chapter of the organization
presided for the Red Cross.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 22-Uprisings
because of shortage of food have TAX
en- place among the civilian population
of many Austrian cities.
Official dispatches from Rome tell
of rioting in Budapest, Vienna and
Prague. Many women and children
were killed in the fighting.
Recruits of the 1917 class fired on
women and children at an unnamed
city killing forty and wounding $50.
The dispatches contain quotations
from an article published in the Bel
gian newspaper Dagblad, which con-
firms earlier reports of an uprising
among the crews of German submar-
ines at the y boat base at Ostend- One
submarine commander was thrown in
to the sea before the thirty of the mu-
tineers were arrested
The Bund", an Austrian newspaper
says 10000 German deserters have
fled to Switzerland.
Brutality, to which the prisoners of
war have been subjected by the
Austrian military caste, now is being
visited on Austrian civilians and it is
believed an uprising against the mill
tary authorities cannot long be de-
layed.
Documents struggled to Italy by
way of Switzerland and published in
the newspaper Patria of Fruit tell OF
atrocities to which Italian prisoners
are being subjected. At the concen-
tration camp at Katzeman an Aus
trian colonel of artillery named Sar-
tori encountered an Italian prisoner
named Martgoni. Without reason the
Austrian raised his pistol and killed
the prisoner instantly.
Another prisoner. urged by hunger,
stole turnip from field. He was
detected and placed under arrest by
a corporal. He was struck three
times over the head and three times
across the arm with a bayonet. Sew
eral arteries were severed Other
prisoners who attempted to interfere
also were struck.
After their capture Italian priso-
ners now are taken to concentration
camps in Central Austria and then
sent back to the front to work in the
Austrian trenches. Italians as well
as Austrians have been killed by Vic
tor Emmanuels men in their charges
against the Austrian works.
