all the personnel Of the Y M. c. A.
and Y. w. G.. A., representatives of
the American bank and number of
private citizens left Moscow for Petro-
grad on a special train the evening of
August 26. American interests pre-
viously had been turned over to the
Swedish consulate.
With the Americans were the
Italian military mission, party of
seventy-one persons This news,
transmitted today through the Swed-
ish government, did not confirm re-
cent reports from German sources
that the last Of the Entente represen-
tatives had left Moscow ands it is
thought here that the British and
French consular officers probably still
are detained.
In belated dispatches received to-
day from Mr.. Poole himself, the last
dated August 26, the consul general
reiterated his intention Of remaining
In Moscow to give moral support to
his British and French colleagues,
held by the Bolsheviki government.
The Swedish government also ad-
vised that passports Of the Americans
and others who had left Moscow had
been advised to leave Russia and that
permission from the Finnish govern
ment to pass through Finland would
be awaited at Petrograd This per-
mission already has been authorized.

Roberts. federal food administrators
for Burleigh county and at1arge, and
who also has charge >of the U. S.
weather bureau service for North
Dakota, takes issue, with two league
who called on Governor Frazier this
week for advice which would extri-
cate themselves from their difficulties
with the food administration. In an
interview given the press today, Mr..
Roberts says:
II notice that Fred Prokup and
Alex Owsianck Of Wilton have ap-
pealed to Governor Frazier relative
to holding wheat for next years
seeding. No decision has been made
relative to this matter by the federal
food administration. I have recon-
mended that farmers be allowed to
return sufficient seed wheat to plant
an acreage in 1919 equal to that
which they planted in 1918 the
rate Of one bdshel and one per
acre, and in addition to reta4. ,uff1-
cient grain to provide ten lo~..As of
wheat flour per person per month
for the entire year.
The writer confiscated the wheat
of each of the above-named gentle-
men because they We're holding the
same contrary to the federal food
laws and regulations, and the pro-
ceeds from the sale Of the wheat has
been turned over to the Red Cross.
This Office is in a position to prove
that Fred Prokup sold wheat to his
neighbors after he was given the
option of delivering all of the wheat
In his possession or to stand trial for
v heat boarding. He chose the for

suiu hl$ wheat also were compelled
to pay the Red Cross for the wheat
SO bought.
THAT these wheat-hoarders and
flour and sugar slackers should seek
political aid in their troubles shows
the extent of their patriotism They
are claiming damage from hails Per-
haps that is true to a limited extent,
but both Of these gentlemen had their

three weeks ago. This Office asks

Upon several occasions league
members affected by the enforcement
of the United States food admins
tration's regulations have appealed
to the Nonpartisan Atdministrat.on al
the state house for relief, and the
practice seems to be becoming gen.
eral. In the recent instance Of con-
fiscation Of wheat in the northern
part of the county it was alleged that

slackers cannot be ascertained.

This has been made plain since the

was decided that the Democrats could

Referring to Evans, Townsend says:

Evans are John Lind and A. c. Town

"Townley has a grudge against

Milan, Italy, Aug. 31.-From advic-
es published in the newspapers Of Mi
Ian it appears that the relations be-
tween the Bulgarians and the Ger
mans are becoming hourly more
strained. The Bulgarian troops refuse
to obey the German officers. Recently
a bomb was launched against the
building occupied by the Kaiser's le-
cation in Sofia. The request of the
German minister for special protec-
ton received no consideration what
ever. t-
On the other hand. the German
troops are untiring in their protests
at having been obliged to wear the
Bulgarian uniform.
In the early part of July a popular
demonstration, was organized to Hex-
press the hostility felt against Ger
many and Turkey The Turkish lega-
ton was attacked and its windows
shattered.

the crescent flag of the Ottoman pow
