Feeders in Northwest Find it Hard
to Borrow For Cattle Purposes.

st. Paul, Aug. 19.-Live stock in
the northwest faces more serious
situation than for many years. Cor
tinued liquidating policy of the banks
regarding cattle paper is forcing
thousands Of immature cattle on thu
market, and only a small percentage
is finding it's way back to the country
for fattening.
1t is practically impossible to get
money from banks for cattle purposes
and thousands of farmers. who have
received loans in the last few
months with which to buy stock, are
being pressed to take up their notes.
Some Of the banks are urging that
only fat cattle be disposed of aud
the young and thin stock held. but
in no case are they encouraging new
loans.
Most grades Of cattle are selling
the lowest of the year. That fact,
however does not seem to affect the
bankers, altho continued selling of
cattle will serve only to depress the
market further unless some outlet
other than the packers is found
Farmers will be in good position
to winter cattle this year, as feed
crops are excellent in most sections
and prices promise to be the lowest
in more than two years.

Supplies to Last Year.
BY Associated Press.
Philadelphia, Aug. f9.-The Ameri-
can Friends service committee, Phiia-
delphia, has arranged to make ship
ments of food for the child feea1ns
work In Germany in sufficient quan-
titles to last until the end OF the
year.
Recently there have been shipped
from New York 240 tons of cocoa,
3I71s tons OF. lard and 1890 cases OF
condensed milk
In addition to this. there were
shipped tfirty-one barrels of cod
liver oil for hospital use in combat
ing ricketts,, the disease of children so
common there because of under
nutrition. Dried peas and dried
beans used in the food ration are al
ready stored in warehouses in Ham
burg to be drawn as needed; $50 tons
of rice have been purchased and Will
he delivered at Hamburg soon. The
remaining articles of the ration, -four
and sugar, will be supplied in Hae
future by the German government.
The value of these goods is about
81, 100000 and it is. expected it will be
sufficient. to provide Il supplementary
meal FOR, about 100000 children eper
day until January. This number is
slightly less than the Friends fed
during the spring months of this
year.
The original plan was to close the
feeding operations on Aug. II
but the food situation was found to
be so acute and the harvest SO. poor
that another years program was pre-
pared.

North Carolina, STAYS Anti.

Raleigh, N. c., Aug. 19.-The fed
eral suffrage amendment was defeat
ed by the North Carolina house Of
representatives today by a vote of II
to Al.
The senate having already voted
to postpone consideration of the
amendment until the regular session
of the legislature next January, the
action of the house today virtually
ends the ratification fight in this
state until that time.
A straightout rejection resolution
supported by the constitutional
amendment committee was tabled
by the house without a dissenting
vote, Immediately after the ratifica-
ton resolution had been defeated.
Vote upon tho ratification resolu-
ton was forced by the anti-suffrag-
list forces without debate.

may be affirmed the grain harvest Of
the soviet republic will scarcely reach
81 100000 tons annually. One cam
not count on any considerable eX-
portation of grain from soviet Rus
as Siberia and the provinces in Cen
trail Asia are concerned they used to
produce 500 pounds of grain for Zach
inhabitant The civil war must have
reduced the normal very consider
ably and It is doubtful whether any
considerable quantity of grain can
be exported from Siberia
Colonel Englehard says livestock of
all sorts has been reduced so greatly
by the war that it is Impossible to
consider the expectation of meat or
1--we animals. The civil war in the
Don and kuhan wiped out the sheep
there and made the extensive ex-
portation Of wool impossible The su-
gar industry Is so disorganiZed and
fuel so scarce he does not believe

its local market for many years.

Oil is the greatest hope of the SOW
let government, in the opinion Of
OF oil still are stored and produced in
the Baker fields and it is the
product which all are seek
ing. Fighting has interrupted the
Baku- Batum pipeline repeatedly
during the last few. months but
Georgia and the bolsheviki have now
reached an agreement and the pros
poets are better for oil sales in
Eatun. The Grozny oil field. which IS
entirely dependent upon the Vladi-
kavkas railway for transportation is
also in the hands of the bolsheyiSf,
who have control OF the railway and
can readily transfer the product to
Baku If rolling stock is available.
But up to the present time the
holshevik regime has only diminished
the productioA of OIL" said Colonel
Engehard. 1T seems certain that
the naturalization of enterprises
everywhere by the communists will
work the same havoc in the oil fields
that it has In Russian industries as
o whole"

MOSS MURDER CLEARED.
Army Deserter Points to Peters as
Killer of Officers Wife.

Chicago, Aug. ia full confess

Peters in the Staying of Mrs. Maude
Lucille Moss. wife of Capt. Leroy II,
Moss, at Camp Grant onIhe night OF
June 15 was made. yesterday after
noon at Madison, Wis, by Private
Lester Van Tasscl, a deserter.
Van Tassel confessed tina; he,
Peters and two civilian friends of the
latter were all intoxicated fronn
drinking flavoring extract at the time
the three shots were fired after the
speeding automobile in which Mrs.
Moss was riding with a party OF
friends. He declares he was lyinS
beside the road, i'll from the effects
of the alcohol, when Peters and his
companions, one of whom had a re-
volver, .Falked down the road few
minutes before the shots were heard.
Peters was arrested week after
the shooting at Jefferson Junction,
Wis, and taken back to Camp Grant
but was cleared of suspicion when he
gave straight forward account OF
his movements on the night or the
Staying. His story is now found TO
be entirely at variance with the con-
fession made by Van Tassel, who ac-
companied Peters in his fight as far
as Jefferson, Junction.
Mrs. Moss, a daughter of Col
Bion J. Arnold of Chicago. was
asleep in the automobile when shot.
She was riding in the rear seat pc
tween two other women when the
bullet entered her head bac1(of the
right ear. Death was almost in
stantaneous. It was not discover Z
that she had Been shot until the ma
chine had progressed nearly mlle
beyond the scene of the shooting.
A search was instituted for tour
deserters the next morning. Sus-
picion was directed at Peters because
he was known to have held a g1udge

ened revenge on the officer for nav
ing preferred charges against nm,
Van Tassel was arrested TUESDAY
when he returned to the home OF ms
parents in Madison. His confession

Car Supply Increases and Shipments
Set Better Pace.
Pittsburgh, Aug. 19.-Shipping con-
ditions, as affecting the iron, and
steel industry. have SO improved that
there Is now nearly an even break
between steel production and ship
ments. All Of the current produc-
ton is being shipped, and from the
present outlook it will be but short
time until the mills will be able to
begin reducing their stocks.
Transportation Of steel products is
much better in quantity than In
character. The mills are shipping
nearly all their product, which is not
entirely unsatisfactory from their
viewpoint, but on account of numer-
Gus and extensive embargoes they
can ship only in certain directions.
Thus. some steel consumers are we'll
supplied, while others get scarcely
any, and to the latter the transpor-
tation situation is eminently unsat-
isfactory.
On the whole, mill operations show
substantial improvement with grow
ing production. Prospects now are
that within a short time coal mines
will be supplied with as many cars
as they can load.

on the miners demands for increased
wages. adjourned sine die after voting
unanimously that miners in each of
the four states will seek to make a
supplemental and separate agree
ment with operators in the field.
This practically disrupts the central
field as a basing point.
lnasmuch as the joint conference
was called by President Wilson for
the purpose of adjusting inequalities
existing in the present wage scale
agreement, operators and miners sent
separate kilograms to the president
advising him of the failure of the
conference to reach an agreement.
The telegram Sent by the operators
was q statement of the fact that the
Joint conference had failed to adjust
the controversy after five days of
almost continuous conference.
The miners telegram was optim-
lstlc in tone. saying the miners would

diVidual agreements with the opera
tors In the various states.

AMERICANS IN
BESIEGED CITY

Eighteen Near East Relief Workers,
Among Which Arc .Adsiaide Crane
and Deris Eevin, Faes Famine in
Adana as RaiIVads Arc Destroyed
SO Supplies Can Not Reach Them.
BY Associated Press.
Constantinople. Aug. 16.-Shower-
ed nightly with Turkish bullets and
facing famine, eighteen American
workers of the American commits !
sion for relief in the near east have
been besieged in Adana, Asia Minor.
since June 20. Twice the French
troops holding Adana have fought
their way to Mersina, the nearest
port, and have returned with heavy
losses.
A flour cargo Of the American Re-
lief Commission for beleaguered
Adana, is waiting at Mersina. The
railway has been demolished and
supplies can be sent only by motor
trucks, heavily conveyed. Mustapha
Kennel Pasha, the Turkish national
ist leader, and his followers, are de-
termined to starve out the French in
Adana.
The siege Of the city was described
to the correspondent by Webster An
derson, of Charlottesville, Ind, who
has arrived in Constantinople after
escaping from Adana on Aug. Z, and
walking southeast to the Mediter-
ranean.
The Turks encircling Adana have
little artillery, according to Ander-
son, and consequently make raids
chiefly at night when the entire town
is raked. Thus far the Americans
have not been injured.
The Americans are maintaining
soup kitchens and work shops for
10000 Armenian refugees. All but
800 of, the orphans of Adana have
been sent to Cyprus.
Among the Americans are Miss
Adelaide Crane, Of Quincy, ILL.,, and
Doris Nevin, New York, daughter of
the composer, Ethelbert Nevin.

Constantinople, Aug. 19.--Russia's
ability to export raw materials in the

estimated by foreign countries in the
opinion of Col. b. Englehard, form
erly. member Of the Russian duma

foreigners seem to fail to realize the
collapse of the Russian transporta-

run down condition Of the Russian
farm lands.
This comment was evoked by re-
ports of the negotiations Of Russian
economic agents with Premier Lloyd
George in London and the announce
ment that the United States had lift
ed prohibitions upon American trade
with Soviet Russia.
