IN GUN BATTLE.
Robert Murray, C. & n. W. Special
Agent, and James Thompson,
Box Car Thief, Die in Fight.

Council Bluffs, Iowa, Oct. 10
Omitted Press men were
killed and two seriously wound ed
in a pitched gun battle between
railroad and police officers and a
band of alleged box car thieves
when officers attempted to search
the home of W. A. Bennett, four
miles north OF here.
The dead are Robert NJ. Murray
SO, Norfolk, Neb., Northwestern
railroad special agent, and James
Thompson, alleged bandit.
The wounded are:
Elmer Lane. deputy city marshal,
probably will recover; George
Moore, 40, Lincoln, Neb., alleged
bandit, condition serious.
Police arrested Frank Tierney
Of Tulsa, Okla, a woman who gave
her name as Mrs. Alice King, and
William Bulls, alleged members
of the bandit gang.
Acting on a tip that goods stol-
en- from box cars could be found
on the farm the officers swooped
down on the Bennett home and dis
armed the bandits. A ruse by the
woman resulted in the shooting.
After she had feigned sickness,
the officers allowed Bennett to go
to her side. She slipped him a
weapon she had concealed in her
blouse, and he shot Officer Murray
and wounded Lane.

U. TO SETTLE
SHANTUNG ROW?
Formal Request From Japan to
Undertake Mediation Would Be
Accepted.

Washington, Oct. 15.-(United
Press. America may mediate the
Shantung controversy between
Japan and China it was learned to-
day.
If Japan makes a formal request
of the United States to undertake
mediation of the Shantung prob
lem, it probably will be accepted,
according TO a statement in author
itative quarters here.
Japanese Ambassador Shidehara
has informally "approached'. Sec
rotary of State Hughes on the sub
ject of American mediation.
1t is believed if mediation were
undertaken 1T would be through
Secretary of States Hughes. Au-
thoritative quarters here pointed
out that a request from Japan for
mediation would be more likely to
be agreed to by this government
than a request that the United
States arbitrate the Shantung prob
lem.
Arbitration would place on this
government a grave responsibility
for handing down a definite decis-
ion in the Shantung controversy, a
responsibility which it is not be-
lieved the United States is ready to
shoulder.
Mediation on the other hand
would simply mean that the United
States would use it's good offices to
bring about a settlement of the
ShantUng issue.
