LITTLE COAL REACHES
TWIN PORTS DOCK
Superior Declares That Receipts Are
Less Than Fifty Per Cent of
Average. X.
(By Associated Press Leased Wire,

Superior, Wis. Less than SO per
cent of the average receipts of coal
at Twin Ports coal docks had been
received up to October 81, according
to figures compiled in the office of
Major E. H. Marks, United States
engineer in charge of the local har-
Dor.
The average receipts of both hard
and soft coal for the past five years
were 8,757,941 tons at the local docks
up to October 81 A total amount re-
ceived at the docks of Superior-Duluth
for the same period this year was 81
758,687 tons.
During the month of October 211,-
445 tons of hard COAL 6,925 tons of
hard coal screenings, and 1861 65
tons of soft coal were received by the

Bentley for ROush
Latest Trade RumOr
Rumer Has 1t That Bentley Was Sc
cured by McGraw to Use in Trade
to Get ROush Back.

Will Jack Bentley, the Babe Ruth OF
the minors, start the season with the
New York Giants?
Rumor has it that Bentley was Sc.
cured by McGraw to use in a trade
that would bring Eddie Roush back to
the Giants. McGraw says that he in
tends to use Bentley as pitcher. The
New York club doesn't need a south
paw; Art Nehf is one of the best in
the National league. The Giants need
a center fielder badly. Cincinnati could
stand some pitching strength. First
base also needs attention. While Jake
Daubert played the best first base in
the National League last season, the
aged Jake cannot be expected to go on
forever.
Roush, no doubt, is dissatisfied at
Cincinnati. He Joined the club late in
the season after holding out for
months over a salary difference. Per
haps his late joining of the club was
merely blind, the real purpose being
to get him back into good standing so
that he would be eligible to play in
1928 should trade be made for him.
McGraw usually gets what he wants.
The leader of the Giants wants Roush.
The Bentley deal may be the means of
bringing about the transfer.

MOURNED AS DEAD:
NOW RETURNS HOME
Andrew J. Bauer, Chippewa Falls
Farmer, Returns Home as Sud-
denly as He Left.
(By Associated Press Leased wire.)

(By Associated Press Leased Wire.)
Chippewa Falls, Wis. = Andrew J.
Bauer, after being mourned as dead for
over year, has reappeared at his
farm home near Durand. His reap
pearance was as sudden and unexpect-
ed as his disappearance when on a
wintry morning he left note in the
cattle barn saying he was going away
never to come back and his clothing
was found on the banks of the Chippe-
wa river with every indication that he
had committed suicide. His wife and
family of small children and his par
ents conducted long but fruitless
search for him, which was all the more
mysterious as he left large farm and
was apparently in good financial cir
cumstances.
Bauer stated that he has spent the
time during his absence in northern
Wisconsin logging camps and farms.
For over a year past he had worked
for farmer near Rice Lake, where his
work gave excellent satisfaction.
The only explanation that Mr.. Bauer
gave for his disappearance is that he
owed debt on his farm. which had
worried him, but, as he had purchased
the farm from his father and was max
ing excellent progress relatives and
friends could see little reason for his
worrying.

NINETY MINERS ARE

Pennsylvania Mine.

(By Associated Press Leased Wirel
Spangler, Pa.-Twenty-fiveb bodies
had been recovered at o'clock
this afternoon from the Reilly
mine of the Reilly Coal Co., near
here, when an explosion occurred
this morning. Six other miners
had been taken out, some of them
SO badly hurt it was feared they
would not live. Rescue work I'M
der the direction of the United
States Bureau of Mines engineers
from Pittsburgh was proceeding.
From stories told by rescue
crews when they reached the sur
face, it appeared that the miners
who had just gone down the shaft
were making their way in mine
cars to their rooms when the ex-
plOsiOn occurred. AS the hours
passed, hope that any considerable
number had escaped began to wane.
Company officials gave the num-
Der of miners who had checked in
for the days work at 81, but there
were villagers who insisted that
the number was nearer 100. First
reports had put the number be-
tween 80 and 95.

Getting Together
for Olympia Games
After Bickering Around, Movements
Finally Do Something Constructive
to Start United States.

New York.-After lot Of petty little
pickering around, movements finally
have been made to do something to get
/ the United States ready for the 1924
Olympic games. Acting rather gra-
ciously to break what looked like a
deadlock Of politics, the A. A. U. has
made some concessions to their oppos-
ing faction that no doubt get all
branches of amateur athletics working
tremendously.
The American Olympic Association,
in calling a meeting for Nov. 22nd in
Washington, announced a change in
the voting power of the various affili-
ated organizations which reduced the
A. A. u from 35 to % votes. Under
this plan, the Army, the Navy and Ma
tioual Amateur Athletic Federation,
which objected to the control of the
A. A. u, no doubt will join.
Five hundred members from all
branches of athletics in all sections of
the country will be named on the
Olympic committees at this meeting,
and plans will be adopted to raise
funds to finance the trip of the Amer
lean team to Paris.
Talking Of holding the 1928 Olympic
games in the United States is not being
taken seriously by the A. A. U. officials.
They are of the opinion that America
would not be selected, even if they
wanted the games here, and they are
not sure that they want them.
1t wouldn't be as @much fun for the
athletes and the officials to get into
the subway and go out to the Yankee
stadium as to grab nice liner and go
away on a party to Europe.

BELIEVE SHIELD
SLAIN in MOSCOW
Police Arrest Woman Who is Thought
to Have knowledge of Staying
of Relief WOEker.
(Bx Associated Press Ieased wire.l


Moscow-The police at Simbirsk,
who are investigating the disappear
ance three weeks ago of Philip J.
Shield, American relief worker, are
holding woman who told them that
late on the evening of October 10 she
saw two men Juggling sack with two
human legs protruding. This infor-
nation, along with the announcement
that the police no longer are dragging
the. Volga in the hope of finding
Shields body, was received here by
Colonel William N. Haskell, head of
the American relief forces from Joseph
Dalton, his representative at Simbirsk.
The woman, who was arrested, lives
near the place where Shields hat was
found. In her deposition she wrote
that when she was out walking late
in the evening of the 18th she came
upon two men standing near a sack
that lay on the ground. She over
heard one of the men say "Shall we
take it there or to the river?" and
the, other man answered "be careful
some one might hear YOU"
Then, according to the deposition
0f the man attempted to shoulder the
sack but it broke and the woman saw
two legs protruding. She recognized
the shoes as tan oxfords of American
make. The men started down toward
the river and the woman was unable
to follow, she declared.
The authorities arrested the woman
in the belief that she was an acces-
sorry. They declare the chances are
seven in ten that Shield was murdered.

The valuation of the taxable prop
erty of Kenosha for the year 1922 is
$56,443,550. This is an increase of
$1,505,15 against the total valuation
returned for all property in 1921. The
return of values for the real estate in
the city is placed at SAL ,807 1920, an in
crease of a little over two million dol
lars in the year This indicates the
amount of Improvement which has been
done in the city during the year, as by
action Of the council it was decided
that there should be no uniform in
crease in the rate of valuation for the
year. The total personal property re-
turned for taxation this year is $14 =
635,730. This. is a reduction of close to
a million dollars over the valuation of
the former year. This does not indi-
cate that there is a smaller amount of
personal property in the city this year,
but it reflects the movement back to
normalcy, and while the merchants and
manufacturers have just as large or
larger stocks than they had year ago,
the value Of these stocks has been con-
siderably reduced by the reduced cost
Of raw materials and manufactured
products.
Work on Tax Roll Goes Forward
City Assessor John w. Stevens has
been busy making the valuation since
the first Of last May, and his final fig
ares were turned over to the City Clerk
On Thursday afternoon just after five
o'clock. The work of getting the books
ready for the spreading Of the annual
tax levy has been we'll under way for
some time, and with the valuations es-
tablished the work Of spreading them
on the rolls will go forward. Under

Court Orders Directed Yer,
dict for Defendant in
Damage Suit
REFUSED S2,75O OFFER
Plaintiff Had Refused Inform
al Offer for Settlement Made
by Railway Company.

Bringing to an abrupt close the dam.
age suit of Andrew F. Stahl for $4,000
against the 500 Line railway as a re
suit of injuries received in a railway
accident near Wheatland last FEBRUARY,
an order was handed down by Judge E.
B. Belden in the circuit court Thursday
evening just before o'clock directing
a verdict of judgment for the defend
ant and ordering the case dismissed.
The order was taken at the close of
the taking of testimony in the case
upon motion introduced by the attor-
neys for the defendant asking for
dismissal of the case en- the grounds
that the evidence had not shown that
the railway was negligent at the time
Of the accident.
Judge Belden's order directing YER
dict held that the evidence had shown
that the plaintiff was guilty of more
than slight want of ordinary care and
that the defendant, the 500 Line rail
way, was not guilty of negligence. The
court went into detail explaining the
basis for the decision.
May Appeal the Case.
The order of the court. directing a
verdict lifted the case from the hands
of the jury, as it was never actually
submitted to the jurors for decision.
1t was intimated today by Attorneys
Clifford E. Randall and Robert Verne
Baker, who represented the plaintiff,
that an appeal might be carried to the
supreme court, cOntesting the ruling
of the court. A favorable decision by
the supreme court would probably re-
suit in another trial.
The suit was brought as a result of
q crossing accident which occurred on
February 6, 1922 at the Wheatland
crossing of the right-o f-way of the
500 Line, when the automobile in which
A. F. Stahl, the plaintiff, and Joseph
Sweeney were riding, was struck by
passenger train. Sweeney was killed
instantly and Stahl was badly injured.
Had Refused Settlement.
1t leaked out in court circles today
that Mr.. Stahl had refused an informal
offer made by the railway company of
$2,750 for full settlement of the case
out of the courts. This offer, it is
stated, was made by the company to
prevent the case from going into the
courts.
A similar suit is now pending against
the railway company brought by Mrs.
Joseph Sweeney, the widow of the man
killed in the accident, and asking for
damages approximating $4,000. It is
believed that the outcome of the Stahl
suit will have some bearing on this
latter claim.

FIND BODY TANK
AND MOON IN 1T
Travanty, Riding Wheel at
Ga, m. Sunday Ready to
Supply Trade.
TUSLER CATCHES HIM

Another body tank for carrying
booze, the second of its kind to be
found in Kenosha, was discovered by
the police Sunday morning This time
it was actually in use, being used as
fancy corset by Tony Travanty, 571
Market street, and inside the tank was
q gallon of moonshine. The arrest
was made by Officer Perry f. Tusler,
whose first arrest when he had been on
the police department a week or May
a, 1929, was that of Travanty.
Tusler was making his Main street
beat Sunday morning, and at six o.
clock, as he turned in Market street,
he saw Tony Travanty riding along on
a bicycle. There was nothing about
Travanty's appearance to suggest that
he was carrying. anything, but Tusler
had an old experience with him and
suspected that all was not we'll as it
seemed ,ln.
Tony Refuses to Halt
The officer ordered the man on the
bicycle to STOP but the latter fastened
forward. Tusler caught him and at
tempted to search his person, but Tony
resisted. t9He resisted fercely as the
policeman. sought to arrest him and
bring him to the police station, but
Tusler lives up to his name. Another
man on the street came to Tuslers aid
and betweeuiithem Tony was made to
DO the goose-step toward the city hall
and police station.
When the police searched Tony they
found a copper tank about his person,
suspended by string from the neck.
The tank was fastened to his chest, so
that as he bent down over the bicycle.
even his additional corpulency would
never bernoticed. The finding of a
gallon of moonshine in the tank showed
that Tony was probably on his way to
Town to supply the Sunday trade.
Many Cases Pending.
AT the time Tusler arrested Travanty
last May, the man was dragging a
potato sack through Pearl street, with
jug of moonshine inside Travanty
pleaded not guilty and was bound over
and the case against him is still pend
ng.
On June q, 1922, Travanty's place
vas raided by the police and wine was
found. Tony pleaded not guilty, was
bound over, and this case also is
awaiting trial in the circuit branch of
the municipal court.
On August 16, 1921, year ago, Tony
pleaded guilty to the charge of possess
sion of moon and was fined $500 and
costs. On March 80, 1922, he was
found guilty of disorderly conduct and
fined SO and costs.
When arraigned this morning, Ira
vanity pleaded not guilty to all three
charges, possession of moon, transpor-
tation of moon and resisting an officer
He was placed under bonds of $1,000
for appearance In court November 18th.
