IL is a good idea to see that your

you will save gasolene. A clogged

REMNANTS OF BOMB FOUND
POINT TO INCENDIARISM IN THE
MINNEAPOLIS FIRE.
Governor Calls Out Battery and In.

Will "Shoot TO Kill"

Minneapolis, April 12.-Discovery Of
remnants of an incendiary bomb in
the ruins of the CHARACTERIZATION
elevator in southeast Minneapolis, de-
stroyed by fire, confirmed suspicious
of military and federal authorities that
the blaze was of incendiary origin.
The metal remnants of a bomb-cap
were found by citizen who turned
them over to a military officer. He
gave them to agents Ct the Depart
ment of Justice for further investiga-
ton. The metal pieces still retained
the odor of exploded powder.

NORTH DAKOTA SOLON
DIES IN WASHINGTON
Congressman Helgesen Passes Away
at Capital Following an Opera
tion for Appendicitis.

Washington, April 12.-Representa-
tive Henry T. Helgesen of North Da-
kota Republican and member of Con-
gress since 1911, died here after an
operation for appendicitis.
Mr.. Helgesen was operated on for
appendicitis two weeks ago. Blood
poisoning subsequently set in and
death came shortly after. The death
of Congressman Helgesen makes an
other vacancy on the Republican side
of the House. Because of illness Hell
gesen was unable to participate in the
organization fight in the lower house.
Mr.. Helgesen was elected to Con-
gress as congressman-at-large in 1910
and on the reorganization of congress
sional districts in North Dakota in
1913 was elected as member of the
House of Representatives from the
First district and reelected in 1914

ENVOY AT WASHINGTON ASKS
FOR PASSPORTS FOR STAFF
~. S. AMBASSADOR NOW
OUT OF AUSTRIA.
GERMAN PRESSURE is
BLAMED FOR DECISION
Breach Believed Prelude to Declare.
eion of State of War-Communi-
cation With Sofia and Con-
stantinople Cut-BuIgars
and Turks to Act.

Washington, April Austria Hun
gary, under pressure of Germany, has
severed diplomatic relations with the
United States.
Baron Erick Zweidinek, charge d.
affaires of the Austro-H Hungarian en-
bassy here, has called at the state de-
partment and asked for passports for
himself and the embassy staff
Word From Switzerland.
Almost at the same time dispatch
was received from American Minister
P. A. Stovall at Berne, Switzerland,
saying the dual monarchy had broken
off diplomatic relations with the Unit
ed States in Vienna.
Spain Takes Over Interest.
BY Encouragement, Spain will take
over the diplomatic and consular inter
ests of the United States in Austria
Hungary. All Austrian consular agents
will depart from the United States
with the diplomatic mission, as was
the case with Germany.
Austria-Hungary has asked Sweden
to take over it's interest in the United
States.
Expect Bulgars and Turks to Act.
Up to the time Charge Swiedinek
asked for his passports no similar ac-
ton had been taken by Bulgaria and
Turkey-Germany's two other allies
and their representatives here dis
claimed having any knowledge of the
intention of their governments. 1t is
expected here they will follow by
breaking diplomatic relations.
Austria's break with the United
States undoubtedly is the prelude to a
declaration of state of war. Sixty
two days elapsed between the break
in relations between the United States
and Germany and the formal declara-
ton of state of war.
War Believed Certain.
How many days will elapse before
Germany's chief ally enters state of
war with Germany's newest enemy
will be decided entirely by circum-
stances. The diplomatic history of
civilization and the presidents of CEN
turies show a state of war invariably
fellows breach in diplomatic rela-
tions between first class powers.
Quite aside from this, Austria has
subscribed, even if only accidentally,
to Germany's campaign of ruthless
ness, although it has not carried it out
against American interests.
Besides that it is considered that it
would be quite impossible to have
abroad in the United States on a
friendly status the diplomatic and con-
sular agents of Germany's ally.

Washington, April 11.-There are
strong official limitations here that
the government is planning to take
over certain railroads in the country
for mobilization purposes.
President of the leading railroads of
the country will meet here with gov
eminent officials to confer on mobil-
ization plans,
The proposition Of the government
taking over certain railroads, officials
pointed out, would mean that the
roads will be used for military pur-
poses only and would expedite the gen.
eral mobilization plan.

are merely groups Of cells that for
specific reasons show the defect

federal cooperation, will enable them

manner which will permit them to

Buenos Aires, April IL. - The
Government has issued a declara-

of the United States in reference

Washington, April 12-Much of the
uncertainty as to LatiD-America's at

States and Germany is cleared away
by definite advices that Chile and
Mexico will remain neutral and in
creasing indications that Brazil, Guat-
emala and Peru will join Cuba and
Panama on the side of the United
States.
Chile Causes Surprise.
The decision of Chile, the first of
the South American republics to an
nounce her neutrality, caused some
surprise among officials here. 1t had
been expected she eventually would
break with the Berlin government, but
would postpone her decision until adj
vised definitely of the course of Ar
gentina and Brazil, the other members
of the influential A, b, group in
South America. What effect her stand
will have on the smaller nations of
the continent is matter of much
speculation, particularly as there are
no indications that Argentina also will
remain neutral.
No Surprise Over Mexico.
MeXico's decision, on the other
hand, caused no surprise and it is re-
garded as certain to have little influ-
ence with her sister republics. A proc
lamation of neutrality is expected
after the Mexican Congress meets
April Is.
