TAMPER WITH
BRIDGEPLATES
One of Them Is Found off
Liberty Memorial Bridge,

Someone has been tampering with
the bronze name plates on the new
North Dakota Liberty Memorial
bridge. C. S. Diehl, in charge of the
structure for the Foundation COM
pany, divulged that some days ago
one of the large plates, about three
feet square, was found on the ground,
the person taking the plate off ap-
parently having been frightened be-
fore disposing of it. Later it was
found that two bolts had been re-
moved from another plate in an at
tempt to take it off.
No explanation is divulged for the
action, unless there was objection
on the part of the 1niscreant as to
the namel; contained on the plates
or he held a mistaken idea that the
plates would bring fancy price as
junk. The plates have been made
secure against further efforts Of this
sort. According to Mr.. Diehl they
would be worth very little as junk.

WHOLE TOWN
IS HELD UP
BY BANDITS
Mentor, MINI. in State of
Seigc For Hours When
Bank Is Robbed
THEY GET $1,5OO IN LOOT
Fifty Shots Fired Into Crowd
Of Townspeoplc Who AS
semble to Oppose Bandits

Mentor, Minn., Sept. 20.-Mentor
was in a state of seige for four
hours early todLy while robbers
wrecked the Mentor State bank
building, took $1,000 and drove away
in an automobile, after firing more
than fifty shots, and wounding four
peN;ons, two of them seriously. ..
The robbers entered the town in
an automobile, drove up to the Grea.
Northern depot, which they entered
and cut all wires. While they we're
working in the depot, William Fratte,
who was sleeping there awakened
and started to inquire what they
wanted. His inquiry was stopped by
the butt end of pistol, and he
awakened an hour after the robbers
had departed, in box car where they
had placed him.
The first intimation that the
townspeople had ,hat robbers were
at work came wien the rear door of
the bank was forced.
An alarm was connected with the
home Of Joseph Bagley, cashier, who
at once started to cave his home to
determine the cause of the alarm.
He was met by man at the front
door, who forced a shotgun into his
ribs and told him to "stay in the
house."
Bagley re-entered his home, but
at once attempted to leave by the
rear door. AS he stepped out he
was met by a charge of buckshot,
fired by another robber stationed at
the rear of his home.
After shooting Bagley, the two
robbers withdrew to a point in front
of tn e bank building where they
erected a barricade, from which they
kept up an almost continuous fire
while their companions blew the safe
and vault of the bank building. The
charge that they used was so heavy
that the bank building was wrecked.
While the robbers who numbered
four, were working general alarm
was given, but only two men, Jo-
seph Benoit and his brother, Arthur.
The two appeared car
rying shotg3s and were met by a
shower of buckshot from the look
outs. Joseph fell, seriously injured,

found to be completely furnished, al
though no tenant has occupied it
for some time It was known that
it's present ownership was being in
vestigated and that detectives have
searched it carefully in an effort to
unravel the mystery Of the double
shooting.
Authorities have felt all along that
Mr.. Hall and Mrs. Mills were not
killed at the spot under an apple
tree where the bodies were found.
Unable thus far to determine the
scene of the killing, they have giv-
en- close scrutiny to every clue look

the mystery.
The discovery of pistol was the
outstanding accomplishment yester-
day. 1t was not disclosed whether
the authorities believe they have
found the weapon with which the

merely that it was pertinent to the

Celebration-Pageant Last

The second performance of the
historical pageant which is the fea-
ture Of the three-day celebration of
the completion of the new Missouri
river bridge was staged at Mandan
last night before an audience OF
more than several thousand people,
which greeted the actors in the big
outdoor drama frequently with ap-
plause. The pageant will be repeat
ed at the Mandan fair grounds to-
night, the third and last perform
ance.
People streamed through the fair
ground gates for two hours and
kept coming long after the pageant
had started. The attendance at the
pageant Monday Night in Bismarck
and last night at Mandan exceeded
all expectations. The joint commit
tee was able to profit by the exper-
ience in Bismarck and the hasty ad-
dition Of chautauqua seats on the
race track yesterday helped solve
problems. Even with this added
preparation and admirable handling
the crowd was so large that there
were some raucous cries Of "sit
down" by people whose vision was
obscured by others anxious to see.
Tonight the Missouri Slope queen
will be crowned, and citizens Of
Mandan and Bismarck both are urg-
ed to be present to pay her tribute.

N-A's eoiA' DSPC hC HOuSc
passed the soldiers bonus bill to-
day over President Harding's veto.
The vote was 258 to 50, or SO more
than the necessary two-thirds ma
jority.
Washington, Sept. 20.-The SOL
diers' bonus bill, vetoed yesterday
by President Harding, was to, be
started today on a second voyage
through congress.
Favorable action by the house was
looked for generally, but friends of
the measure doubted that they could
muster in the, senate the two-thirds
majority necessary to override the
the veto. The plan was to call up
the bill in the house soon after noon
and to have roll call after an
hour or two Of debate.
The time Of senate action was in
definite. Some favored the final test
of strength Immediately after the
house voted, but others and these
included several of tn Republican
leaders, counselled delay until. to-
morrow. 1t was their view that with
the bonus issue disposed of it would
be difficult to keep quorum for
action on important matters await
ing decision before adjournment of
congress. -
In his message to the house Pre-
sident Harding based his veto of the
bonus largely on the ground of the
failure of congress to provide
method of financing and the conse-
quent heavy drain it would prove on
the treasury. He made it clear that
the interest on the foreign debt could
not be relied upon, asserting that
even taking into account such paw
ments as were likely to be received
from that source the treasury faced
a deficit of $650,O0O,OOO this fiscal
year and an even further shortage
in the succeeding year.
The President declared that enact
ment of the measure would wipe out
the result Of the administration
economy program and would entail
further borrowings by the treasury,
every one OIL WHlcn he auueu, LnIeat-
ened higher interest and delayed the
adjustment of stable government fl
nancing and the dimunition of fed
oral taxes to the defensible cost of
government.
The bonus bill was laid before the
Senate shortly after 2 o'clock and the
Presidents veto message read to the
senate which ALREADY had been de-
batting the question for more than an
hour. #

Paris, Sept. 2O.-An agreement
between Great Britain and France on
the Near Eastern problem seemed
reasonably assured after two and
one-half hour conference between
Premer Poincare and Lord Curzon,
British foreign secretary, at the
French foreign Office this afternoon.
The two ministers outlined to each
other at great length the views of
their governments and considerable
progress was believed to have been
made toward an understanding.
Lord Curzon is understood to have
Informed M. Poincaire that Great
Britain would insist upon the abso.
Lutte freedom Of the straights of the
Dardanelles and would insure this
freedom by the presence of large
fleet.
The British foreign secretary,
however, is said to have intimate,i
that the British military effort in
the Near East would be confined to
the navy which gave rise to the i'm
preston that the British troops
would soon be withdrawn from
Chanak. l., .;
Premier Poin~are informed Lord
Curzon that the French policy was
decidedly pacific, its chief aim being
TO make peace as soon as possible.
He urged the immediate calling of
a peace conference for final set
tlement on the basis Of the Turks
remaining on the Asiatic side of the
straights pending the outcome of the
c conference.
The two ministers were in agree
ment on the necessity Of maintaia"
ing the freedom OF the straights,
although it is understood there may
be some dierences of opinion as to
the character of the control to be
exercised.

LOSS $50 MILLION.
(By the Associated Press)

Smyrna, Sept. 2O.-American and
British insurance experts estimate
the total property loss in Smyrna at
$15O,0OO,0O0, only $60,000,O0O OF
which is covered by insurance. Brit
ish underwriting companies will bear
the brunt of the loss. The American
property loss is placed at about s12,-
100000, the greater part insured.
1t is impossible to estimate the
loss Of life. Most American observ-
ers agree, however, that fully 1900
perished in the flames. No cautious
man would venture to say how many
were deliberately massacred, and it
is undeniable that there were whole
sale deportations. The fate of these
unfortunates can only be conjectur-
ed.

Limited. the subsidiary company of the Yukon Gold, had been hauled to Ma, o Landing up to the time he left there. March ', and that it was estimated that by the time the snow goes on and hauling ceases for the win4er the company will have a total of 3,lOO tons on the Mayo waterfront ready for the steamers to take away as soon as the river opens.
 The Bradley people had taken out considerable ore in developing, but were not expecting to ship. but it was understood tEey might send down 25 or 30 tous to the water front if convenient the last thing in the season.
 "The future of Keno Hill and vi cinity," says Mr. Co0ey, depends on the development. Much more work will be required to prove a large or permanent camp, but the indications are very encouraging in various places. What is really need ed is more work.
 "As the camp stands today it is an attractive center, and Keno City is the liyliest little mining town to be found anywhere. The boys from the various camps and hills center there on Sundays and they make things throb. Arguments grew so hot one day that foJr teams settled it in the street.
