the murderer who lurod Father Bel
knap to the edge of town here and
then killed him with blows from a
blunt instrument and shot him

made little progress.

knap lived. The young priest an
swered the call himself Father Bel
KNAPP heard the man at the door and
overheard part OF the conversation,
he said.
The priests father and mother,
Mr. and Mrs. p. NJ. Belknap who
lived at the residence, also heard
parts of the conversation. Like
Father Hoben, they said they heard
man ask Father BellSnap to come
with him to the home of sick
friend who was about to die and who
desired the sacrament Of extreme
JUNCTION administered.
Father Belknap readily consented,
according to his parents and Father
Hoben who said they thought moth
ing of the call as $50 many re-
quests of the kind have been made
before"
Father Belknap went to his garage
to get his automobile. His visitor ac-
companied him, The starter on the
car would not work and after lit
tie delay the pair left the garage
afoot.
That was the last heard of the
priest until his body was found half
an hour later. 1t lay in the roadway
face downward. A large bruise on
the back of the priests head indi-
Gated he had been struck from be-
hind with blunt instrument.

Washington, Oct 27.-The flow of

rushing the growler," can again be
practiced without fear of the laws
interruption.
This was made known today when
Secretary of the treasurerq Mellon
started that the large stocks of real
beer now held by brewers can be
sold at once under the medicinal
beer regulations. Some Of these
stocks were manufactured in pre-
Volstead days.
One case is the limit any person
can buy at time, under the regu-
lations. Also he must have a pre-
scription from a physician, but while
these prescriptions are not refillable,
there is no limit on how many pre-
scriptions one person can secure nor
how often he can obtain the beer.
The sale of the medicinal beer must
be made through registered phar-
macist.

will pass through the pens here
during this season, It was announce
cd.
An abundance of food such as
wheat, products corn, cotton seed
products, and alfalfa, are available
here at low figures. This is one of
the reasons given by cattlemen who
express the belief that the cattle
fattening industry here is facing a
busting revival Other reasons given
for this contention are: that the de-
nland for Texas and Oklahoma cattle
Is mudh greater because whlskey
and beer dlstlllory refuse Is no
longer available for the fattening OF
large herds In the north and east;
that an inexhaustabe supply Of
water is available here; that feed,
which is plentiful here Is not avail
able in Texas; that cotton seed pro-
ducts, which also are available in
large quantities here. cannot be had
at reasonable prices in the north;
that Ohickasha has advantageous
railroad facilities and Is located at
the doors Of four great packing CEN
ters, TT. Worth, Oklahoma City,
Kansas City anil st. Louis.
The pens here have feeding ca.
pacity of $4,000 animals. This means
that from twenty to thirty thousand
head of cattle can be fattened here
every year. This was approximately
the average yearly turnout up to
several years ago when price and
crop conditions put damper on the
industry, it is said.

Ivy lUlttu lItSb.
Washington. Oct. 27.-The chiefs
Of the railway brotherhoods may be
landed In Jail II they refuse to re-
clnd the strike order which is to
become effective on october 30. and
which would result in the tiep of
mails and interstate commerce, it
was learned today.
This was the indication contained
in statement given out this morn
ing by the department of justice.
With the zero hour for the general
strike approaching, Attorney Cen
eral Daughorty has decided that IL
the walkout develops, he has ample
authority to obtain a court injunc
tion restraining any interference.
with the mails or interstate COM
merce.
This contemplated action. 1t is be-
lieved, is the result of the refusal of
the brotherhood chiefs to agree to
anything that would result in the
calling off Of the strike, when they
met the rail executives before the
federal railway board yesterday in
Chicago.
At that meeting, the chiefs de-
clared that it was not now within
their power to stop the strike. They
stated that they did not believe an
order from them calling off the
walkout would stop the men from
leaving their jobs on the morning
Of October 80.
The chiefs are quoted as saying
that nothing but satisfactory set
tlement'' of the differences would be
accepted by the men.
Such settlement, they said,
would be reconsideration by the
labor board of its IL percent wage
reduction order Of last July l, or a
movement by the individual rail
roads to confer with the unions and
set aside the boards order
w. S. Carter declared a settle
ment should also reimburse the men
for the pay lost since July 1 as a
result of the wage cut.
