GIVES ENCOURAGING
 NEWS OF NEW PAY
(Iditarod Pioneer.)

Charles Gay. one Of the first opera tors on Willow Creek. in the Marshall district. arrived from that camp on Monday last. He came by way of the i portage 10 the Kuskokwim.
 Mir Gay brings word of a strike made on Disappointment creek. about the first Of the year by Shorty Ed gar. From the bottom or a shaft s60 had been rocked out when MT. Gay was al the scene. and it was expected that the amount would total $50. Dis appointment was one of the first creeks located in the Marshall dist rict, and great deal of prospecting has been done there. without encour- aging results, however. until the re- cent find The ground is located about half mile up the creek, whcih is about three miles long. It seems that the pay has been missed hereto fore by reason Of the fact that the prospecting was confined to what was considered to be the channel. Edgar sunk near the right limit, and it seems 10 be the general opinion that the pay. streak has been located. There is con. siderable interest manifested in con- sequence.
 On Elephant creek, which parallels Disappointment being separated by a low divide, good prospects also have been found.
 The new developments, MT. Gay says, have created an air Of optimism. and it is expected that the camp will be lively place during the coming season. There is general belief that more pay creeks will be found, and it is certainty that additional ground will be opened up on Willow creek.
 The Marshall camp is considerably excited as a result Of a serieg of rob berries that have taken place recently. Al Hall, the tinsmith, was the latest victim. He left his shop to go to din. ner, and when he returned he found that it had been entered and the cash drawer forced and robbed. The rob bers took s950. 4 peculiar feature of the affair is said 10 be the fact that the victims claim to know the perpe- trators Of the robberies, but owing 10 The loss of time and money involved in a trip to Nome to prosecute the cas- es, no action has been taken against the culprits.
 Mr. Gay will not return to Marshall until late in the spring. He disposed l of his lay on Willow creek ground l some time ago but is the owner of other claims on that stream, and prob | ably will operate them during the con- ing summer.

HOW l. V. ". TREATED
 STRIKE BREAKERS
(chicaeo Tnes)

When John Curran was cutting ice ,or a Chicago packing house at Wolf Lake. Ind, he was told that before he got thru with his joh he wouldn't have a leg 10 stand on.
 The prediction was partly fulfilled. John had the legs. but il was long time before be could stand on them, When hs took the job he realized that he was going to run some risk. The work had been done by crew of men who were members of the Industrial Workers of the World They struck, and Curran was one of the men hired to break the strike
 About two weeks ago the ice cutters were visited by a delegation of the I. W. w. who threatened workers and ordered them to quit The men were intimidated. They agreed to stop work ing. They decided. however. to stay overnight at the camp. The next morn ing they did quit. en masse. and left the camp.
 They had only progressed about mile on their tramp towards Chicago. when they began to complain about burning sensation in their feet. The pain became so acute that the men were forced 10 cut of their shoes.
 They managed to crawl on their hands and feet to the nearest railroad station.
 When Curran reached Chicago his . feet were swollen to twice their natur- al size. Curran went to the County Hospital and was treated. When he was discharged he was still unable to walk. He was taken in at the Indust- rial Home Of the Salvation Army by Maj. W NJ Gooding. The army at tempted to locate his companions. but was unable 10 do so.
 Investigation proved that acid had been placed in the shoes of the men.

Washington, Sept. 2.-The purchas-
ing power of the consumers penny
as regards bread, has shrunk 36.5 per

This official report from the local
department of health was urged as
an argument by consumers repre-
sentatives in the wheat price COM
mittee's sessions in favor of a price
that would make possible return of
the 5-cent loaf. Announcement of
the food administrations baking COM
mittee that the best the public can
expect from 1920 wheat is Scent
bread proved disappointment to the
consumers Representatives, who were
assured that price would bring back
the scent 14-ounce loaf 7

Government Will Find Our
Crops and Needs Before
Feeding Others

washington, Sept. 2.-Indications
that the United States intends to "a
ton the northern European countries
IN the strictest fashion were seen yes
terday in the admission that the OK
ports administrative board has disap-
proved an arrangement suggested by
the Dutch minister here and the Bel
gian relief commission for division be-
tween Holland and Belgium of the
nearly 100 Dutch grain cargoes held
in American ports.
The first news that permission for
the ships to sail had been denied came
yesterday in dispatch from Rotter-
Jam. The general understanding had
been that the arrangement would be
approved and that some of the yes
sells would sail Immediately.
The export board, it was learned,
will let no food cargoes go to Europ-
can neutrals for at least two months,
or until the American government has
ascertained it's own food require
ments for the year and the size of
crops that are to be harvested. All
Of the neutrals, it is held, can feed
themselves without difficulty until
his information is available. The
United States wishes to. know, also,
the size of crops to be harvested in
the neutral countries this fall
Tt was made clear that the United
States has no intention of letting neu-
rails go hungry, but emphasis was
placed on the fact that the govern
ment feels it's first obligation is to
the American people and to the allies

ONE CAR TURNS OVER
f TWICE IN DESCENT
Mrs. Loren Miner Taken TO

/ Arm and Torn Scalp

Mrs. Loren Miner was seriously in
Jured and four others escaped with
severe bruises Sunday afternoon
when two roadsters met in collision
on the dry bridge over the st. Johns
bury and Lake Champlain railroad
tracks on the Danville road. The
smash swung both machines entirely
about and forced them through the
railing on opposite sides of the
bridge to the tracks beneath, a dis
lance of 25 feet The cars took q
sheer drop of between ten and fifteen
feet and rolled the remaining dis
lance down the embankment land
ing right side up.
One was q Massa chusetts car con-
tanning Irving Dillon and his aunt,
Mrs. J.. T. Palmer of Lawrence, Mass.
and Mrs. Loren Miner of this place.
The other contained Mr.. and Mrs.
James Durem Of Montpelier who were
travelling through to Lyndonville at
the time of the accident. Mrs. Miner
sustained a fracture of the left arm
and a badly lacerated scalp besides
other bruises. Mr.. Durem's left foot

Car Turned Over Twice.

The Massachusetts car was travel
ing toward Danville at the time Of the
accident and Mr.. and Mrs. Durem
were coming down the hill toward
this place. The cars met at the mid
die Of the bridge and the front wheels
locked. The crash put the steering
gear on at least one of the machines,
NJ. Duren's, out OF control and fore
cd them around and over the edge
of the bridge. The Vermont car fell
about Is feet before striking the en-
bankment while the Massachusetts
car after landing on the emban<-
ment 10 feet below rolled completely
over twice before coming to stop
right side up on the railroad tracks.
Men living nearby rushed to the
scene of the accident, others tele
phoned to the railroad station to hold
trains over that road, and a freight
train from the west was stopped sew
eral hundred feet from the place.
Both automobiles were badly dam
aged and witnesses of the smash said
it seemed remarkable that the entire
h wrecked machines w e + e
hitched to the freight engine which
was uncoupled from the train for the
purpose, and were pulled down the
tracks to a place where they could
be removed to the highway.
