Five Seized in Boston.

Boston. April 6.-The five refugee
German steamers here were today in
the possession of United States off,
Gals. The crews are at the immigra-
ton station under guard, pending the
governments decision as to their
disposal.
The purser Of the Amerika. clad in
pajamas, objected to an order to go
on deck in the prevailing mixture Of
snow and rain. When pressed to move
he threw UP his hands and cried:
Kill me here as we'll as send me to
be killed out there"
No trace of explosives or incendiary
devices was found on any of the ves-
sells. Two shots were fired but in each
instance it was said to have been the
accidental discharge Of a sailors
gun.
The steamers seized were valued at
$1S,0OO.0 when they tied up here aft
err the war started in 1914. but are
now rated at $23,000,0O0 because of
the advancing value Of tonnage. All
the vessels, however. have been dam
aged by their crews since the rupture
of diplomatic relations with Germany.
Officials estimate the repairs will take
at least six months.

County Auditor Answers Question Of
BeItrami County Man.

County Auditor Houglum received a
Letter yesterday from one of the coun-
ty commissioners of Beltrami county
inquiring how it is that Clay county
can sell ditch bonds with only Az per
cent interest while they can only dis
pose of them when they bear 6R per
cent interest?
Mr.. Houglum called his attention to
the fact that Clay county has no
bonded debt while that Of Beltrami
county is nearly $2,OOO,O00. He also
reminded him that this is farming
country and practically all of the land
is used for agricultural purposes,
while but a comparatively small part
Of Beltrami is under cultivation.
