FRENCH TELL RUSSOS
PREPARE FOR CONF ABB
Want Complete Cooperation
Between Forces of Two
Countries
limited Press Dispatch.1

Paris, France, June 13.-The
French government has sent word to
the government at Petrograd, asking
for a conference between commits
sions representing the two countries
so as to arrange for complete CO
operation between the forces of the
two countries in contending against
the common foe. 1t is pointed out
that France, Great Britain and the
United States have complied with
the demands of the Russians for a
statement of their war aims and
principles, which are the same as
those OF Russia. 1t is further point
ed out that President Wilson's eX-
preston of principles has been en-
dorsed by Italy.

FIRES DESTROY PROPERTY
Garage, Barn and Other Buildings Eat
en- Up BY Flames.


While Mr.. and Mrs. Paul Cords
who reside in LeRay township, sec
ton twenty were automobile riding in
their car last Sunday, fire destroyed
their garage, and equipment, barrel
of gasoline, a barrel of kerosene, the
milk house, wood shed and contents,
including fine milking outfit, caus-
ing several hundreds of dollars loss.
The origin of the fire is unknown, but
it is thought It was caused by gasoline
leaking through the floor and becofn-
ing ignited in the basement of the
garage.
Last night about nine o'clock, fire
destroyed the large modern barn be-
longing to Andrew jacobson, who has
a farm in section five, LeRay town
ship. Mr.. Jacobson had finished milk
ing his cows, and had turned them in
to the pasture. He left the lantern
hanging in the barn, and it is thought
that the wind blew the lantern over,
which set fire to the barn. In addition
to the barn with it's contents of hay
and grain, one silo was burned, and
the roof of another was badly dam
aged The milk separator milking ma
chine and electric motor were also de-
stroyed, the entire loss being esti-
mated at from $500 to $500.

LIBERTY BOND SALE
FOOTS UP Sl63,95O
Special Rally Was On Yester-
day In Mankato
MORE RETURNS COMING
Several Districts Are Not Yet
Reported; Will Be In BY
Evening

Twenty mine thousand, six hundred
dollars, was the high mark reached
by the special rally sale of United
States Liberty bonds up to three
o'clock today on incomplete reports.
The sale started out briskly yester-
day morning, and the committee of
workers endeavored to reach every
one in their territory. Quite a large
number of bonds were sold on the
installment plans, and others were
sold outright. Mankato is respond
ing nobly to the call Of it's country,
and is sending it's share of men and
money TO aid the government. The
city is filled with patriots, and all
are doing their bit" The sale of
bonds will no doubt reach a much
larger figure before all the returns
are in, as several of the largest dis
tricts in the city had not reported
up to the time of going to press.
Prior to this rally, the sale of the
bonds in Mankato amounted to $134,-
$50. The special rally sale, adding
$4,000, made a total of $163, $50.
Mankato's quota, however, is $250,000
If any one has been overlooked he
should go to his bank and arrange
for the purchase of bonds.

Senate Approve Espionage Bill
With Embargo Clause
HITS NEUTRAL NATIONS
No Goods From the United States
To Reach the German
Empire

Washington, June 13.-Control o.
exports was given the government
when the senate approved the admin
istration espionage bill with it's EN-
barge clause.
The measure, sent to the presiden
for his signature, puts into the hands
of the executive weapon by which il
is intended to stop supplies from en-
tering Germany through neutral coun
tries. ~
Passage OFFS. the bill removes to {
great extent tile necessity of the Brit
ish blockade since the United States
originator of most of the exports tina
reach neutrals, will see that the coun
tries are supplied with just enough
food and materials for their owl
needs.
The measure also. gives anothel
powerful weapon to the president il
that it permits him to trade for arti
cles controlled by the allies, which
heretofore have been permitted tt
come to America only in limited guam
titles.
Fair control over shipping will re
suit. The act will require license:
for export cargoes and the govern
ment can force neutral ships in har
bors where they have sought safet,
from submarines to transport cargoe!
needed by their home countries.

BOSKY TAKEN BEFORE
UNITED STATES COURT
Has Sympathy With Germany
And He Would Have Her
Win This War

st. Paul June 13.-"I am not willing
to sayI want to see Germany de-
feated in this war"
This was the answer of Edward
Bosky, 1874 West Seventh street,
when asked as to his sentiments con-
corning the Swar, yesterday
Bosky is in the county, Jail, having
been arrested yesterday after an
Indictment was returned against him
by the Ramsey county grand jury,
charging him with interference with
enlistments.
Bosky was born in Germany and
lived there for about thirty years,
coming to the United States twenty
years ago. He is naturalized citi-
zen.
The cause of his indictment was
publishing alleged seditious matter
in his paper. The Referendum, pub
lished at Faribault. 1t is social
list organ and vigorously has opposed
registration and enlistment, it is said.
~ "ouiu lClIACl HOT u6Hy
the rumor that American socialists
of German birth are receiving funds
from Germany. He admitted having
heard the rumor.
II never have felt the same TO-
ward other nations, as | do toward
Germany" he said. He scored the
entente allies. He said he was US
ing his newspaper to aid settlement
OF the war through the proposed So
c1alist world convention at Stock
holm
Federal officials said the case prob
ably would call for an investigation
which might result in special SEES
sion of the federal grand jury to
ask an indictment for treason.
Bosky is former resident of Man
kato

Old Mapleton Is Scene Of Very
Fine Gathering
ADDRESS BY HAYCRAFT
An Excellent Program Carried
Out BY Singers and Speak
~, ers; Festivities
Especial to Free Press. ]

Mapleton, June 13.-The poet has
exclaimed: what is so rare as a day
in June!" And this was the feeling of
many anxious hearts Tuesday as they
gathered in the beautiful grove of Judd
Cornell in Old Mapleton for another
day of rest and pleasure, when old
friends, shall shake again the hand Of
neighbor and friend, who have for one
day laid aside work and care to enjoy
the beauties of nature and the COM
partnership of each other. The uncer-
tainties of early morning soon disap-
peared and although the day remained
cool it was clear and beautiful which
made one feel in harmony with all the
festivities that were on the program.
Fully 1000 people were on the
grounds during the day. While many
came in carriages more automobiles
than ever before were parked in the
shade of the beautiful oaks, and by
the time the Sterling Cornet band,
with few stirring selections opened
the program the commodious tent was
filled with interested listeners await
ing the invocation by Rev. D. B. Mar
tin.
Address of Welcome BY Mrs. Heaiy.
The address of welcome this year
was given by Mrs. o. w. Healy, a
daughter of one of the pioneers, and
one whose very life beats in harmony
with the occasion. The response by
the veteran and pioneer, Judge Loren
Cray, was fitting and to the point.
The Orpheus Glee club of Mankato of
thirty members, under the direction OF
d. M. Jones, favored the audience both
morning and afternoon with a group of
songs, among which was "The Star
Spangled Banner" Seldom has Maple
ton had an opportunity to listen to
such rare musical treat. The selec-
tions were beautifully and artistically
rendered by this group of well trained
voices. All hope they may soon have
the pleasure of hearing them again.
Miss Beatrice Troendle. for the past
few years instructor of music at st.
Theresa college, Winona, favored the
company by singing a group of two
SONGS, "The Winged Bird and "On
Adrian Sea-" The company was cap
tivated by her sweet we'll trained
voice so perfectly controlled, and
showed their appreciation by calling
for another selection She was accom-
panied by Miss Everill Troendle on
the piano.
Memorial Was Read.
H. c. Hotaling then gave very
briefly the memorial to the old
settlers, making mention of thirty
seven who had passed away during the
year. Those of the immediate vicinity
were Christian Tesch, George Arget-
singer, J. Norlinger, Jerry Griggs,
Adam Lortz, l.. Troendle. Fred Gerlich.
Dan Townsend, Caspar Schimmele and
Charles Stevens.
Lloyd Morrow, accompanied by Mrs.
B. ]. McGregor. then sang in his at
tractive way. "My Little Home In the
West and Hawaiian" but the crowd
would not be satisfied until he re-
spcnded once again
The address of the day was then
given by Hon. ]. e. Haycraft of Fair
mont. who was introduced by Presi-
dent j. H. Dobie. The speaker put his
audience in good humor at once by a
few witty remarks. and said that he
was q native of Blue Earth county,
