SPECIAL SESSION
NORTH DAKOTA LEGISLATURES
WILL CONVENE JANU-
AIRY %.

Bismarck, N. D., Jan. IA NOR
atorium for all soldiers from this
state may be considered by the spe-
cial session of the legislature. called
to meet January %.
Because this is a developing state,
many industries are conducted on the
basis of credit. When wal was de-
clared the men in these industries
dropped their work in large numbers
and obeyed the call. This has left
what is reported to be an acute con-
dition of credit and loans. To meet
this situation, a moratorium for the
time of the war may be declared.
That the special session will con-
slider only strictly wal measures was
the emphatic statement of Gov. l.. j.
Frazier. His statement. however, was
not considered to exclude the posi-
bility of ratifying the federal prohi-
bition amendment coming before the
special session.
Lifting of constitutional limits to
give counties the right to bond for 5
per cent Of their assessed valuation
to help farmers needing money, in or
der that they may continue producing
food to win the war, is to be the chief
issue before the special session.

LIBERTY BONDS
OWNERS SHOULD NOT BE DE-
CEIVED AS TO THEIR
VALUE.

Aberdeen, Jan. 14.--Reports of ac-
tivity of loan sharks, especially
among the enlisted men of the army,
lending from $50 to SIS at 10 per
cent interest on liberty loan bonds,
have been received in Aberdeen by
Lieutenant William Anshelm OF the
army recruiting service. Colonel II.
M. Lord, of the quartermasters corps
Of the army. in charge of the army
liberty loan campaign, has request
ed that army men and civilians be
protected at any cost against those
who would take advantage of them
in respect to their liberty bonds.
Any reputable bank will give the
market price for liberty bonds at the
present time and should loan money
on them at reasonable rates. Open
market quotations for the bonds are
but slightly under the face value.
Bonds should not be disposed of at a
sacrifice as they will bring full value,
nearly full value, to the owner.

COAL SHORTAGE
NO RELIEF FOR SIXTY DAYS,
SAYS GARFIELD.

Washington, Jan. 14.-Even small
plants making munitions and other
war supplies may have to curtail fuel
consumption during the next so days,
Fuel Administrator Garfield said in
a statement assuring the public that
every effort would be made to dis
tribute the available supply of coal
where most needed and that no par
TALLY would be shown any section.
Part of the $4,000, 900 tons short
age of the past year has been made
up, DR.. Garfield said. but there still
is a large deficiency and il will be
felt chiefly this month and next.
p. b. Noyes of the fuel admins
tration left for New York to discuss
the situation there with local Off
Gals and to take up with manufac-
turers of the less essential products
the question of reduction in con-
sumption.
There can be no possible general re-
lief for at least so days and within
that time the situation may grow
much worse than it is now according
to DIR Garfield.

TO REGISTER women
WELL ORGANIZED COMPANIES
FOR SECURING ALL NAMES TO
START JANUARY 81.

Sioux Falls, Jan. 14.-With the
machinery throughout the state thor.
oughly organized, the South Dakota
division of the women's committee OF
the council of national defense will
launch a months campaign on jan
uary 81 for the registration of every
woman in the state for war service,
according to an announcement OF the
executivme committee of the state or
g~anization here. Mrs. X. Zetlitz, OF
Sioux Falls, appointed by the COM
mittee as state chairman of registra-
ton, will direct the work of enroll
ment.
The registration of approximately
1860 women. the estimated num-
Der of women in South Dakota over
Is years, is the aim of the state Of
ficials.
Hundreds OF district workers have
been appointed in every section of
the state to carry on the enrolment
in counties, townships and towns.
Registration headquarters will be
opened in every county at which will
be kept the registration cards for the
county. State headquarters, 1t was
announced, will be opened here.
Cards bearing spaces for the name,
address, age, occupation, education.
dependents and training or expert
ence of the registrants will be placed
in the hands of every woman in the
state to be filled out. In this way
the woman power of the state will be
catalogued. The registration cards
also provide a method for women
who wish to devote their services to
war work to volunteer. Under the
caption services offered" on each
card, the registrants are requested to
specify the extent of time and labor
which they are willing to give to war
work.
After the registration campaign is
concluded ever y card will be indexed
at the county headquarters. A sum-
mary of the information secured in
regard to the woman power of every
county will be transmitted to the
headquarters and then placed on file
at national headquarters in Washing
ton. In this manner, 1t is pointed
out, the government will have at hand
complete information in regard to the
available women workers in the
country and can easily select the
women best fitted for war service.

Petrograd, Jan. 14.-With General
Kaledines as president and prime
minister, the republic OF the Don
river has been declared existent,
according to reports rom Rostov.
Most of the Cossacks and the pop
ulation OF the Don district are group

group.

COMES TO GRIEF
METEORIC CAREER OF UTAH
MAN AT GETTYSBURG ENDS
DISASTROUSLY.

Gettysburg, Jan. 14.-After a very
pleasant weeks visit here, II. II. Da-
Wis, self styled ranchman and CAPT
talist from Utah, has just departed
for Ogden, Utah, In the custody of a
deputy sheriff. He waived extradi-
ton and is to answer to charges of
fraudulent financial transactions, the
charges being preferred by an Ogden
bank.
Davis came to Gettysburg about a
week ago with letters of reeommen-
dation from various banks, and from
acquaintance of Gettysburg business
men. He also had passbooks from
banks that he claimed to have depos.
its in, and he referred to these pass
books to refresh his memory as to
certain sales OF sheep and cattle at
fabulous prices. He was entertained
royalty by a few of the local real es-
tate men who had large ranches for
sale, and vas on the verge of closing
two or three deals on ranches when
the storm struck.
On the third day after his arrival
he deposited a cashiers check on an
Ogden bank for $3.50. He also made
two sight drafts on other banks in
which he claimed to have deposits.
These drafts aggregated $500, and
he asked the Potter county bank to
place this amount to his credit. The
next day he drew $3.50 on his first
deposit OF $3.50, and intimated that
he would require a considerable
amount OF money that afternoon to
close a deal that was pending. The
Potter county bank Immediately
wired to the Ogden bank about the

AUTOMOBILE fence
MINNEAPOLIS OFFICERS RECON-
Err 1874 STOLEN AUTOMOBILES
SOME FROM SOUTH DA-
KOTA.

Minneapolis. Jan. 14.-Evidence
gathered by C. Kenyon, a chef at the
Maryland hotel, Minneapolis, and a
boy friend, brought about the ar
rests of the six members of the auto
mobile theft gang which had been
working in Minneapolis. Through
his work deputy sheriffs were en-
abled to ecove 1874 automobiles
stolen during the past six months as
well as information which probably
will lead to the recovery of 100 other
machines from various parts of Min
nesota.
Those held for completely in the
robbery and sale of the cars are j..
w. Collins, Edward Hoppe, Harold
Cass, Abe Friedman. Nick Dolsen and
Frank Weingard, all of Minneapolis.
Mr.. Kenyon said that some time
ago a boy friend of his whose name
he did not mention, discovered that
these men were stealing cars. The boy
became acquainted with some of the
members where the cars were being
taken to be altered before the sale.
1t was said that Collins had con-
fessed to the handling of $50 stolen
cars in Minneapolis in the last six
months. He is said to have declared
the cars were taken directly to a gar
age formerly owned by him and then
to the headquarters at the barns
where in 80 minutes all identification
marks were destroyed and the num-
bers changed. often the cars were
Immediately reprinted and the en-
the body changed and the cars sent
into the country the same day to be
sold by agents working for the ring.
He Is further said to have confessed
the gang was urged to steal as many
automobiles as possible to meet the
great demand.
Hoppe is declared by deputy sher-
ifs to have confessed that the ma
chimes were sold for prices ranging
from $40 to $40. The profits
of the operations, he is said to have
admitted, were so big the men were
willing to take the chances incurred.
He admitted, the deputies claim, to
stealing Al automobiles in Minneap-
oils since last July. Many of the cars
were stolen in South and North Da-
kota.
