for the alleged hold-up and shooting
of Leslie Ranck and Geo. Morris, two
harvest hands, claiming Harrisburg, O.
as their home, at Alta about 2:3O yes
terday afternoon.
| Ranck and Morris hired out to Oar
by O'Malley yesterday morning to
work on his threshing rig They only
stayed on the job until noon when they
quit and walked to Oriska where they
caught a west bound freight. Their
story is that the negro, who gives the
name of Jim Brisco, Of Waco, Texas
and the white man, who gives his
name as Geo. Rodgers, Of Waco, Texas
were already on the freight. When
Ranck and Morris got on the other
two attempted to hold them up. Rancl1
objected to this and grappled with
Brisco who shot him thru the arm.
Ranck dropped and Brisco and Rod
gers ran. The train was at Alta by
this time and Morris got help Tor
Ranck, who was brought to the city
for medical attention, and then got
Art Tricboid to help him chase the
others with his, Triebolhs car. Bris-
co and Rodgers headed north and TTio-
bold, and Morris Wegaegaqble to catch
them. However, they kept sight Of
them until they got to the tree claim
known as the old William Schultz
farm. There they disappeared from
view. Morris and Triebold phcned to
the sheriff and asked for helA ?rd
about forty citizens, armed with rifles
from the &C" Company armory, went
out to assist in the search. The posse
did not arrive until about five o'clock
but the search was organized and that
part of the district pretty we'll covered
before it became dark about 500 o.
clock. No trace OF the fugitives was
found and the posse returned to the
city.
The. authorities felt that the fug-
ltives would try to get back to the
tracks and they figured that North
Valley City would be picked by them
as being the best place to catch q
train. Acting on that theory Chief
Swanson, Deputy LippoId and VIM. ST.
mons kept watch at North Valley City
Until about 200 o'clock this morning.
They did not see anything of the fug-
tives and so came back to the city
or other matters until about 400 o.

MAKE CANVASS OF
FUEL SITUATION

. iiS 1UctIll VI leIIIAOIu CUillnlSSIOI
ers as State Fuel Directors has mad
a canvass Of the fuel situation i
North Dakota. Reports have bee
submitted by dealers in coal and b,
,operators Of Ignite mines. The re
iports of dealers indicate that the SUD
ply Of anthracite and bituminous Goa
is practically exhausted and whit,
orders have been placed with whole
salers, there is no guarantee of deliv,
cry. In fact, the Commission has
communicated by wire and lette,
,i5n various wholesalers in Mime,
sofa and Wisconsin, and we are ad-
+F.scd thai they have little or no coal
for distribution in North Dakota. 1t
IS therefore apparent that many deal
ers and institutions must appeal to
the State Fuel Directors for coal to
be obtained through the Federal Fuel
Director since great number of in
stitutlons in North Dakota are not
equipped to burn Ignite.
Coal ordered through the Federal
Fuel Director will not be consigned to
Individual concerns in North Dakota.
Blanks furnished by this Commission
must be filed out and returned to the
Board as State Fuel Directors. All
coal shipped into North Dakota thru
the Federal Fuel Director will be con-
signed to the Board Of Railroad Com
missioners and re-consigned by the
Board to it's destination.
A consumer making application to
the State Fuel Directors for coal must
arrange with his bank for payment by
making the necessary deposit or by
securing a loan Of funds, within the
limits Of the National Banking Laws,
and the State Banking Laws, sufficient
to pay for the coal far which he is
asking at the time it is loaded in the
cars at the mines. With the payment
SO secured, the banks, it is thought,
will be willing to furnish the neces-
sary guarantee Of payment for the
coal. This unusual way Of securing
payment YVES made necessary by the
fact that coal under orders Of the
Federal Fuel Director moves to- GUS
;omers about whom the shipper may
have no knowledge and with whom
le never had any previous business.
There is no anthracite coal available
or distribution at the present by the
Federal Fuel Director.
A representative Of the Board OF
Railroad Commissioners will be sent
o the Minnesota Docks On Or about
/, and will remain there
gntil the emergency has passed.
Booklet on Lig11ite Coal
a short time ago the Board Of
Railroad Commissioners requested
Dean Babcock Of the School of En- /
University Of North Dalo
a, to prepare treatise on the best :
of storing and burning lig-
lite. Mr. Babcock complied with the
eQuest of the Commission and the
Information is now ready for distri- j
ution in booklet form. The booklet !.
lso contains a well prepared treatise +
y Mr.. C. Larson; combustion en-
ineer, who is an authority on the Il
est methods Of burning Ignite. Il
The Commission feels that many
eople are going to be called upon to /
urn Ignite during the coming months i
'ho are not familiar with the best j
lethod> of burning this North Dalzo-
! fuel. It is therefore the desire Of t
1e Commission that copies Of this i
ooklet be placed where they will dc,
le most good. 1T. !:

EUROPE NEEDS AID,
 SAYS U. s. VISITOR
Distressed and Hopelessly in Debt, Declares Kansan, Returned Home. ...
By JAMES l.. KIIGALIEN, International News Service Staff G

International News Service Staff Cor respondent.
 Kansas City, Mo, Oct. 4-Europe Is distr essed. hopelessly in debt, ano needs help.
 America. for business reasons ii nothing more, should go to Europe's rescue.
 Unless this country does we shaI not maintain real normalcy.
 Such, in a nutshell, are the views ot J. z. Miller, Jr., former governor ot the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, who has just returned from a trip abroad and who is advocating partial cancellation of the Allied deb.. with reservations with the exception of the $5.00o,000,000 owed the United States by England.
 Want U. s. to Aid.
 America" MT. Miller told Interna- ttonai News Service. will never reach real prosperity again until actual and practical preparations are made for European states, such as Belgium, France and Italy.
 Europe, under present conditions, cannot pay the $1o, 100000 loaned by the United States.
 tThe nations over there are hope lessly in debt, covered with insur- mountable internal and external taxa tfon. Collection of the money in full would cost us more than the final amounts would comme to.
 MT. Miller said that, in his opin- ion, England, with her vast posses sions, will be able to pay us.
 But the situation as regards Italy, Belgium and France is entirely differ ent, he asserted. Their population, he pointed out, is depleted, their cur rency deflated, and they are con- fronted with decidedly adverse eco homie conditions.
 'Intentfons'' Are Good.
 Their intentions are good, but they simply can't pay" he declared.
 While abroad Mir Miller conferred with leading bankers of London, Paris and Rome, from whom he gained an insight into actual condi- tons.
 Quite the reverse, however. Is the report of another Kansas City man, also just back from Europe. He is Mitchell Henderson. an attorney. Europe was a revelation to him.
 q thought conditions were bad in Europe, but I found prosperity, not he said.
 Europe. according to Henderson is generally prosperous. In Germany he said, factories are going, the peo- pie are substantially clad, and every body is busy, notwithstanding the de- preciation in the mark. The peo- pie of Belgium, he asserted, are the best clothed, the best fed and the most prosperous, with the exception of the Hollanders that he saw in Europe. In France he saw more wheat than he ever saw in America
