Another Search of Capt. Whis-
ler's Quarters. Results in
the Recovery.
WAS HIDDEN IN WALL OF ROOM
Stolen Bank Funds Were Found on
Shelf Prepared Previously by
the Ak Murderer.

Camp Funston, Kan, jan 1.-THE
So, 600 of the funds of the army bank
stolen Friday night by Capt. Lewis
Whistler after he had murdered four
civilians and wounded a fifth was re
covered yesterday in the officers
quarters. The money was concealed
in a compartment, previously pre-
pared, in the wall behind book shelf.
The determination to make more
thorough search of Captain Whisler's
quarters followed a report made yes
terday by an assistant in the intelli-
gence office. The conclusion was
reached from the facts gained that
the stolen money had not been SNUG
gled off the reservation.
All the Money Together.
Col. ]. R. Mitchell of the 354th In
fantry, to which Captain Whistler be-
longed, today took charge of the dead
officers quarters. A book shelf in
the southeast quarter of the room
was torn away. Behind that was a
board. On removing the latter a
small compartment in the wall was
discovered and the officer, reaching
in, found all of the stolen funds.
The indications were that the secret
compartment had been prepared by
the captain previous to the holdup and
murder. The hand AK and pliers dis
covered in Captain Whisler's room
after he committed suicide probably
were used in preparing the hiding
place.
The officers in charge of the investi-
cation say now that Captain Whistler
was mentally unbalanced without a
doubt
The intelligence office announced
today that the main incident was
closed All further investigation will
be to work out some of the minor,
unexplained details.

GARFIELD PUTS BAN ON COAL
Industries East of Mississippi to Close
Five Days-Each Monday to
Be a Holiday.

Washington, Jan. 17-American
manufacturing enterprises with but
few exceptions in all states east of
the Mississippi river were ordered
by the government tonight to suspend
operations for five days beginning Fri
day morning as drastic measure for
relieving the fuel famine.
At the same time as further means
of relief it was directed that industry
and business generally, including all
normal activities that require heated
buildings, observe as a holiday every
Monday for the next ten weeks. This
will close down on Mondays not only
factories, but saloons, stores, except
for the sale of drugs and food, places
of amusement, and nearly all office
buildings.
While the order does not mention
shipyards, it is known that they will
be permitted to continue operations
as usual, although munitions plants
will be closed.
The governments move came en-
tirely without warning in an order is
sued by Fuel Administrator Garfield
with the approval of President Will
son, prescribing stringent restrictions
governing the distribution and use of
coal. 1t was decided upon hurriedly
by the President and government
heads as a desperate remedy for the
fuel crisis and the transportation tan
gle in the Eastern states. Even mu-
milton plants are not excepted from
the closing down order.
Officials tonight would not discuss
the far-reaching effects the action
would have on che industrial fabric
and questions as to how the order was
to be interpreted to meet specific
problems went unanswered
The order prescribes a preferential
list of consumers in whose interest it
was drawn. These users will get coal
in the following order:
Railroads.
Household consumers, hospitals
charitable institutions and army and
navy environments.
Public utilities, telephones and tele-
graph plants
Strictly government enterprises, ex-
cepting factories and plants working
on government contracts.
Public buildings and necessary gov
eminent, state and municipal require
ments.

STORING THE NATURAL ICE
Kansas Manufacturing Concerns Put
ting it Up to Prevent = Famine
Next Summer.

The Food Administration for Kansas
has been informed that several ice
manufacturing concerns are putting up
natural ice for next summer because
of the threatened ammonia shortage.
There will be an ice famine next sum-
mer unless large quantities of natural
ice are stored or unless something un-
forseen occurs to counterfeit the am
monia famine.
Farmers living in that part of Kan
sas where there are ponds and
streams have had opportunity to fill
their ice houses this winter because
of the cold weather In parts of Kan
sas there is not enough natural ice to
make any difference. Ammonia is
needed in the manufacture of explos-
ives and the war is reducing the avail
able supply.
According to DIR. s. ]. Crumbine,
secretary of the state board of health,
natural ice is perfectly safe for do
nestle use under the right conditions.
Freezing and crystalization destroy
much of the organic matter in natural
ice. If ice is stored for at least six
weeks, Doctor Crumbine says, it will
become practically sterile. If ice is
to be reasonably pure. Doctor Crum-
bine says: First, avoid flooding;
second, pack in clean and uncontami-
mated straw; third, handle in SAM
tary way
Thousands of tons of ice might be
put up from Kansas streams and
ponds this year, and be perfectly safe
and wholesome, if the foregoing pre-
cautions are observed" said Doctor
Crumbine. THAT would effect great
saving in fuel and ammonia and result
in cheaper ice."
