CLOTH INDUSTRY
IN FRANCE IS
GIVEN SETBACK
Shortage Of Flax Causes
Closing Of Some of the
Linen Mills.

Armentieres. Dec. 29.-Recovery Of
the white goods industry in France,
from tho blow dealt by the war has
been retarded, it is said here, by the
shortage of flax due to the isolation
OF Russia, the great source of supply.
notwithstanding the lack of raw
materials. how the industry. which
before the war centered in 32 mills
here and employed more than $4,000
persons in the district around Lille,
is steadily growing in rebuilt factories
These new structures are rearing their
heads above the wseckage of wars
confusion, presenting a strange pic
ture to the eye.
Only fifteen hundred persons are at
work in three mills here as compared
with sixteen thousand employed in
1914, according to information given
the correspondent Of the Associated
ing out linen or cotton sheeting. Pow
er in the other two plants is only
available at intermittent periods be-
cause the Germans took away gen.
orators. boilers and copper fixtures
with the result that the mills are
forced to resort to make shifts to get
electric energy.
In Armentieres alone at the time
the war broke out, there were 10000
looms and spinning machines. Most
Of these were carried of by the Ger
mans: the rest were stripped of their
valuable parts or disabled.
Government statistics say the linen
industry as a whole has resumed op-
erations in one-third of the mills, but
with only a. little more than six per
cent of the pre-war force. Officials
express. confidence that the manufac.
turc of white goods will be at halt
production within a year and at full
output within two or three years.
Ono Of the big problems at Armen-
there's is to find shelter for the work
ers whose homes were wrecked by
shellffre. The damage in this respect

According to the terms Of the peace

Jury Being Enpaneled To-
day; Separate Trials Thot
To Be Likely.

.t Towner, N. D.. Dec. 2s.-Walter
zimmerman and wife of Granville sat
In the district court here this morn
ling and seemed keenly interested in
.tthe selection of the jurors who will
try them on a charge of murder. 1t
Will be tried separately. The charges
were preferred against them when the
state discovered evidence that Mar
&garet Kottke, 7-year-old adopted
daughter of the Zimmermans, whose
BODY was found in a straw stack on
the zimmerman farm about two
months ago, had starved to death.
History of Case.
y The little Kottke child was born out
OF ~edlock to Mrs. Arthur Kottke be-
fore her marriage to Kottke. When
.hhe chtld's mother. married Kottke
and other children arrived. parental
attention was not extended to her and
she was finally compelled to find an
other home. The Zimmermans are
.&neighbors Of the .Kottke family and
they adopted her, but her life in the
Zimmerman home is said to have been
even worse than with her mother.
About two months ago the thinner
mans reported that the child was
search for her. Her body was found
in a straw stack on the Zimmerman
farm and a. post mortem examination
made by Coroner DIR. Stone of Balfour
revealed that the child had been dead
for some time before she was re-
ported missing and that her death
was due to starvation and exposure
The coroner's jury found that the
.szimrnermans were responsible for the
girls death and they were arrested
and arraigned on charge Of murder
when Judge Buttz OF Devils Lake
opened the present term Of the dis
trict court here December II. They
elected to be tried separately and II
lis believed that this will be allowed
in the trial beginning today.
The ,child's stomach was sent to the
state laboratory at the University OF
North Dakota by DR.. Stone to quie,
rumors that the little girl was poison
ed. The report of the examination
has not been made known, but it il
understood that it will be submitted
rs evidence by the state.
X Body May Be Exhumcd.
- It. was learned yesterday that At.
torney z. r. Sinkler Of Minot, who
has been retained by the county as
special prosecutor. had ordered DR.

LEAGUE COUNCIL
Call Will Be Issued Shortly
After Ratifcations Are
Exchanged.

Paris, Dec es.-Informal notice of
the first meeting Of the council Of the
League Of Nations will probably be
given day or two after the exchange
of ratificattons of the treaty Of Yer
sailies. Ambassador Wallace cabled
the state department in Washington
to this effect after this mornings
meeting of the supreme council which
had the question under consideration.
1t is still an open question whether
the formal call for the meeting shall
be issued by President Wilson as
originally provided for, or whether in
view Of the fact that the United States
has not ratified the treaty the call
shall be issued by Premier Clemen-
ceau; president Of the peace confer

place for the meeting of the members
Of the council will probably be \ de-
cided tomorrow.
The date for the exchange Of rati-

those hours. The little Gardner girl
stoutly maintained to the authorities
that she was in his company.

Fort Yellowstone, Yellowstone Ma
tional Park, Wyo., Dec. 2s.-If the
thousands of pleasure seekers who
passed along the dusty roads of Yell
lowstone park during the warm sum-
mer months could be here this month
they would be able to see some Of the
natural wonders under conditions
which probably would be considered
more spectacular than those made
possible by pleasant weather.
Temperatures as low as IS degrees
below zero have been recorded. Park
workers who have been in the far
north have declared that the cold was
more intense than any weather they
ever faced in Alaska or the Yukon.
Thirty degrees minus has been con-
sidered 'let-up weather."
Considerable construction work was
In progress when the big freeze came.
The tremendous crowds Of last sum-
mer caused government ohicials and
directors Of camping company to
lose no time in providing more ade-
Quate facilities for the 1920 season.
Club houses and garages are being
built at all the camps.
Heavy snow has fallen throughout
the park and even in the geyser coun-
try, where hot water defies the ice
king, the fearful cold and deep snow
have combined to make this winter
wonderland even more fascinating
than 1t is in summer, in the opinion
Of cafetakers.
