RED CROSS. CANARO
BRANDED 1FALSEHOOD

The following statement has been
issued by Harvey D. Gibson, general
manager of the American Red
Cross: -. >.H..
"a story t., being circulated to
the effect that sweaters, socks, and
other articles knitted for the Red
Cross are being sold, either to the
public in shops or direct to the SOL
diers. This is emphatically not
true. No articles whatever, either
knitted or otherwise made by Red
Cross workers and turned into any
Red Cross chapter, branch or aux
iliary, or any supply warehouse. are
sold either to the soldiers or in
shops. ;+..
"If any wilful case of this sort
should come to the attention of
headquarters. the charter of the
Red Cross chapter or subsidiary
sanctioning it would be Immediate
ly withdrawn with full publicity.
Should it transpire that an actual
instance of the above character oc-
Cured wherein an individual sold
articles after their having been
turned in to the Red Cross, such
action would be clearly in violation
of the fundamental. law covering
the Red Cross, and we would take
vigorous steps to prosecute the Of
fender.
''It is also true that any case of
persons, other than those acquiring
the right prior to January,tt 1905,
using the name or emblem OF the
Red Cross to assist in the sale of
merchandise, is a violation of the
provisions of the federal criminal
law, and the offenders should be re-
ported to the United States district
attorney for prosecution.
"There is no way to prevent peo-
pie from making the same type of
articles as are produced by Red
Cross workers and selling them for
their own advantage, thus subject
ing the Red Cross to unjust criti-
cism. Should they use the name
or emblem of the Red Cross in con-
nection with such sales, however
they will be vigorously prosecuted"

of the Andrews elevator, fatally
50-gallon tank of gasoline carried
in the wagon. The gasoline fumes,
ignited by fire from the engine,
spread to the five coaches which
made up the train, which almost
immediately were enveloped in :. a
blanket of flame. Engineer James
Mcdonald backed +. rapidly to the
water tank, the Glen Ullin fire de-
partment was called to the scene,
and the blazing coaches were ex-
tinguished, after the exteriors had
been badly scorched. but before any
of the occupants were seriously in
jured.
Shock sustained a blow in the
back of the head, und lived only
ninety minutes after the accident.
The young was following another
team across the track, and it occu-
pied his attention to such an ex>
tent that he did not notice the ap-
preaching train. The wagon was
square upon the tracks when No. Z

eef had been obstructed by build

ed and the stipulations were signed
which closed the matter.
The cases all hinge on the injur-
lea received by Susie Koeller and
Carl Koeller who were passengers
on Train 1O7 of the 500 line which
was wrecked November z Of last
year when it struck a broken rail
near Burlington. She was badly
injured and was in the hospital in
this city for some time and later
was removed to Minneapolis where
she was in the hospital for several
weeks. Carl Koeller. a son Of the
injured woman. also suffered some
bruises and injuries. -..
Three cases were instituted
against the railroad. One of these
was by Susie Koeller herself. An
other was by her husband for in
direct damages to himself in her
injury. The third was by John
Koeller on behalf Of the son who
was injured. 9 &,

KtNMARE POSTMAS. .
TER WAS SUSPENDED

Minot, N. D., Oct. 18.-O. L.
Toftner, formerly of this city, who
has held the position of postmaster
at Kenmare during the past year
and a half, has been suspended by
the postoffice department.. pending
an investigation Of his Office.
Mr.. Toftner visited Minot this
week and appeared before U. 8.
Commissioner R. E. Hopkins. who
placed him under $50 bonds for
his appearance in federal court.
His case will PROBABLY be heard in
November, unless the department
should straighten out the irregu-
larity in his Office prior to that
time.
Mr.. Toftner has employed Hal
vor L. Halvorson, we'll known
Minot attorney, to appear for him.
From what the Independent can
learn, Mr.. Toftner's slight shortage.
which amounted to only 1892, has
been fully made up. When Mr..
Toftner learned that there was a
slight irregularity IN his accounts.
he Immediately furnished a check
on the Farmers and Merchants
Bank Of Kenmare for 800. and
SuDSeQueu Qdlu Iuc 200. "E.
Toftner explains that he has no idea
how the shortage came about. but
his many friends in this vicinity,
who have always known him as q
man Of integrity. are certain that
Mr.. Toftner will be able to explain
satisfactorily to the department
and that he will be again placed in
charge of the Office at an early date.
Interesting developments are looked
for. 1t is said that Mr.. Toftner
is not the only man in the office
who had access to the records and
the cash.
Mr.. Toftner's assistant, Mr..
Holmes, has been placed IN cnarso
of the Kenmare office. The Ken
mare postoffice pays a salary OF
$2,100 a year.
