STOLEN BONDS
ARE TRACED
NEARLY $75O,OO0 WORTH HAVE
BEEN SOLD IN THE TWIN
CITIES.

st. Paul, June 14-Nearly one mil
lion dollars worth of Liberty bonds
and other securities stolen in New
York, Chicago and Philadelphia, have
been traced to the Twin Cities, post
office inspectors told the United Press
today. Probably $750,O00 worth of
these securities have changed hands
here lit was said. Bank clerks, bond
statesmen and automobile statesmen
were used by the bond thieves to dis
pose of the stolen securities, accord
ing to w. ]. Marles, postoffice inspec-
tor in charge of this district. War.
rants have been issued for 26 men,
including bank clerks and automobile
saltsmen, it was indicated. The four
big men sought by the federal agents
for the bond theft had disappeared
when they were sought i'm roundup
at daybreak today. They had been
tipped off by premature newspaper
story this morning indicating that
bond robbers were being sought here.
A United Press reporter turned up
evidence in the case three weeks ago
and was cooperating confidentially
with the postoffice inspectors in an
effort to disclose the source of the
stolen bonds. 1t was learned that
some of the bonds were being brought
in by train to Hastings and thence by
automobile to St. Paul. Bank clerks
were being used to instil confidence
In bank depositors to buy the bonds
and many were victipized.

DISCUSSION VALUABLE TO THE
MEsa--oFFTCERs, ARE
ELECTED.

Many instructive addresses which
contained a great deal of useful in
formation for fire chief were given
at the afternoon session of the state
fire chiefs convention held yesterday
in commercial club rooms. Mayor Jas.
Robertson heartily welcomed the Wis
itors to Madison in behalf of the city.
His address was responded to by

which municipalities should guard
against l. d. Lee of the local de-
partment said many instructive words
about installation of furnaces. Other

Ter. of Hot Springs. and p. L. Hanson.
of Bridgewater
OF special note was an illustrated
lecture given by ]. #. Connor, federal
forest supervisor at Custer, who talk
ed on Prevention and Extinguishment
of Forest Fires. Mr. Connor said
that a large percentage of forest fires
| in the last few years were caused by
careless tourists who neglected to put
out their camp fires. He stressed the
| idea that the national forests are a
| heritage which cannot be replaced if
| they are destroyed and it is the duty
of every citizen to make it possible
to save the forests for the generations
which are to come, by using every
precaution in guarding against fires.
| e. r. Townsend, representing the
national board of underwriters, dem
onstrated a method of standardizing
all hose couplings used in the state.
BY making all couplings uniform all
departments can lend their apparatus
to neighboring departments in case
of emergency The plan was favor
ably received by the chiefs and com
mittee was appointed to take the mat
ter up for further investigation.
A business meeting was held after
the program of addresses. The fol
lowing officers of the chiefs associa-
/ tion were elected: President, j. j
| O'Conner. of Wagner; vice president
M. s. Helling, of Miller; secretary
John Pierce, of Centeryille; treasur-
er, A. G.. Fricke, of Brookings.. f. j,
Parker invited the association to hold
it's next convention at Deadwood
Nothing was definitely decided al
though the opinion was strong for the
Black Hills.
