DON'T BUY COAL NOW
ADVISES ". ]. HARRIS
FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSIONER
SAYS GOVERNMENT MEASURES
WILL BRING ABOUT REDUCTION
IN PRICES TO CONSUMERS.

ATLANTA, Ga, September 13.-The
people of Atlanta have accepted the
advice of William ] Harris, chairman
OF the Federal Trade Commission, and
are waiting to buy their coal until
prices go down to lower levels, in
consequence of President Wilson's
proclamation fixing prices at the
mouth of the mine, and his further
steps which have been taken to fix
the percentage of profit which retail
dealers will be allowed to charge.
Chairman Harris, who is a Geor-
gian and a former state senator, has
again advised the people not only of
Atlanta, but of the state at large to
wait until Fuel Administrator Gar
| field acting under authority conferred
upon him by President Wilson fixes
| TIE prices at which wholesale dealers
shall sci! to retail dealers, and the
prices at which retail dealers shall
sell to the public When this is done,
according to Chairman Harris, the
people will be able to buy coal at
prices they can afford to pay. Mean
while, his advice is for everybody to
hold off, buving only the quantities
they are absolutely obliged to have.
The arrival of the first touch of
chilly weather has naturally raised in
everybody's mind the question of coal
supply and coal prices, and number
of inquiries have been sent from here
tC Chairman Harris. In response to
these inquiries, he has given out the
advice above outlined.

The Italians, especially of the
South, are not as tall as the other Eu-
ropeans The Italians are not related,
racially, to the Hebrews, but belong to
the same breed as the French, Rus

pies. So far as we know, the people
of Campania are not different, in
origin, from the other Italians.

appeal to the jury to consider the

Christmas eve who are awaiting your
verdict. .' ..
"We are tired, gentlemen" said
Thorpe. "The. court is tired; these
have been trying days. They are ter.
ribly tired over there in Europe. The

tired, worn and sick at heart. But we
have a duty here to perform-a duty

Langer's Consideration.
"If Mr.. LANCER had shown half as
much consideration for Hall as he did
for himself when he invaded military
lines here in your city of Bismarck to
escape the due process of the law OF
our state, we would not have been
here tonight, gentlemen" declared
Thorpe in making the charge that the
attorney generals office had not
duely investigated before it began its
prosecution. and in asserting that the
states entire case is based upon the
testimony of a 'self-confessed thiel
and eljurer and forger."
Thorpe registered with the jury
strenuous objections to the states

they cashed checks from this fund,
and that these checks had gone
through and had been credited to the
automobile registration fund in the
state treasurer's office .&
Cancelled Checks.
Mr.. Stutsman produced a stack of
cancelled checks drawn by Thomas
Hall which had gone through the de-
partment in this manner. None of
these checks, he informed the jury,
had been for more than $40, and
every one of them had been made
good; net held for year, as Walla
stated on the stand but cashed, as
their date of cancellation showed,

Stutsman admitted shortage ex-

Hall was ignorant of the fact, and
that Walla was responsible for it. He

Eugene M. Walla and purporting to
have been delivered to the attorney
general, in which Walla admitted
that he was short $2,075 at the time

BURKE SPRINGS SENSATION.
WalIa's Lawyer Tells Of Planting
Dictauraph.

Judge K. T. Burke, recently of the
North Dakota supreme court, and now
counsel for Eugene NJ Walla,s Jointly
charged with Thomas Hall, secretary
Tor state, with the embezzlement Of
automobile registration funds of the
state, proved prolific of sensations
when he took the stand as the states
last witness in rebuttal following the
conclusion Of Halls testimony in his
own behalf late Monday afternoon.
On direct examination Judge Burke
testified that Oct. 81, the morning fol-
lowing the double-arrest, Hall came to
his office In The Tribune building and
in the presence of Whlla stated that
he intended 70 plead guilty. Hall had
not then consulted an attorney, testi-
fled Judge Burke, who stated that he
persuaded Hall to consult counsel be.
fore taking any radical step.
On cross examination Judge Burke
admitted completely in placing in the
Walla residence photograph, through
which agency Burns detectives, sta
toned in the basement of the Walla
home, were to listen to a supposedly
private conference between Walla and
Hall. Judge Burke stated that the
detectives came to him with the pro.
position, and that inasmuch as he
wished to obtain the truth, not only
about Mr.. Hall but about his own
client, Walla, he consented to assist
in placing the dictagraph.| Hall de.
clined to keep the appointment at
Walla's home, and the dictragraph
had no conversation to record.
Burke Last Witness.
Judge Burke was the last witness.
Both sides rested following the con-
clusion Of his examination, and after
a consultation the court announced
that each side would be allowed three
hours fer the closing arguments.
Assistant Attorney General Bren-
nan led off with mastery, clear-cut
statement of the states case. He de-
clared the standard of North Dakota
citizenship was on trial in this case.
He reviewed the evidence, contrasting,
that of Hall and Walla, and declared
it evident that someone is lying. The
jury, he said, must judge to some ex.
tent between Hall and Walla. &c.,.

STUTSMAN FOR DEFENSE
Says Governor Cashed Checks From
Auto Fund.

The address of W. H. Stutsman of
Mandan, who opened for the defense,
was what might have been expected
from that veteran of thirty years SER
vice at the bar. He did not try for
oratorical effects. His approach was
temperate. He marshalled we'll the
facts which rebounded to the credit of
his client, and poured volley after VOL
ley into the offensive of the opposi-
ton. ....
Funds Of Department.
He showed that Thomas Hall, sec.
rotary of state, had cashed checks
from the funds of the automobile reg
istration department, and that these
checks were good. and he produced a
check of Governor Lynn J. Frazier,
cashed by Nelson A. Mason, the gov
erno:'s private secretary, to show that
the practice was more or less COM
mon to all departments, not excepting
the chief executive himself; that the
