4 DEAD
IN CAMP
MURDER

(United Press Leased wire.)
CAMP FUNSTON, HAS,
One bandit, unaided, killed
four men and seriously
wounded a fifth in the rob-
berry of the army bank here
last night, according to
Kearney HOrnall, cashier,
who was wounded.
Hornall recovered conscious
ness long enough today to refute
the earlier belief that four band
its participated in the four MUIR
ders. He sank into a coma and
is expected to die.
Military police and civil au-
thorities, aided by police dogs.
were continuing the search for
the robber, or robbers, this after
noon. The exact amount stolen
has not been determined.
The dead are c. Fuller Whit
ers and Carl Obleson, Kansas
City; John w. Jewell, Springfield.
Mo-, and a clerk named Hill.
Kearney Wornall, Kansas City,
cashier of the bank, was wounded.
The robbery and murders took
place between 1880 and s o'clock
last night. Shortly after O'Clock
a regimental sentry patrolling
near the bank heard groans from
within. He entered and saw the
bodies lying on the floor. He

Capt. Smallwood, acting provost
officer, went to the bank with a
squad of men.
Searching All Barracks.
A Gordon Of guards was thrown
about the camp and police in all
cities within radius of 100 miles
notified.
The army officers are convinced
that no soldier was connected
with the crime, but taking
every precaution 10 prevent any
men leaving the cantonment. An
inspection of all men and all
barracks is being made.
Police dogs, stationed at the
camp, followed the trail of the
men from the bank to the inter-
urban station, where the trail
was lost.
At about the time the crime was
committed, four men were seen
going along the road, one of them
carrying a suitcase. All were
dressed in civilian clothes, and
II is believed they were the men
guilty of the crimes.
Liberty Bonds Stolen.
The robber chose a time when
there were fewer chances of dis
covery than usual. The day had
been the coolest of the winter at
the camp and there was but lit
tie movement out Of doors. Pa
trolling had been reduced to q
minimum.
1t was reported today that sew
eral thousand dollars In cash and
. considerable amount of Liberty
bonds had been taken.

FOREST FIRE SEASON
REQUIRES UTMOST CARE

A dangerous forest fire season is
Lere. All forest travellers, autoists,
campers, fishermen, hunters and all
others, are warned to be careful with
fire in the open. The present ex-
tiemely dry condition of the woods,
cue to drought and drying winds,
makes them especially susceptible to
fire, and unusual care is necessary
to prevent destructive conflagrat!ons
The cooperation of everyone using
the forests is needed to keep them
green and attractive. By building
small camp fires in safe places and
completely extinguishing them be-
fore leaving, one OF the chief causes
OF forest fires may be removed
Smokers should be cautious with
turning tobacco and matches. No pa
triotic tourists will purposely start
fire and endanger the timber and
forage Of the forests. Aside from
The commercial value of the woods,

RATIONS CARRIED IN
GAS-PROOF CONTAINERS

The quartermaster's department is
now supplying gas-proof containers
TO the soldiers in the zone of opera
tions in France. These containers
prevent seepage OF gas into the con-
tanners and guard against contami-
Lation Of food The men carry their
emergency rations in the containers
and all food brought up to the
trenches is carried in the new tins.
After the food is packed in the con-
tainer, they are hermetically sealed
It is planned to use paraffine for
sealing as It settles in the c-eyices
in such a way that it must be cut
Lefole the lid can be taken off. It
can be applied by running the con-
tainer through paraffine bath.
Because the supply Of tin IS limit
cd and there may not be enough to
supply the needs of the army the
tuartermaster's department is eXper-
i'aenting with the wax paper box.
Tests made show that these boxes
meet all conditions satisfactorily.
The tins and boxes both are vermin
and water proof.
