BURLINGTON FLYER
P!LtUINGES INTO CREEK
KILLING 40 PERSONS
Terrific Roar of Water Over
Doomed Train Heard Three
Miles From Scene
ENGINEER DIES AT POST
Defective CuIvert Undermined
by Swollen Stream Breaks,
Causing Disaster

CASPER, Wyoming, September
2s.-Burlington passenger train No
go, bound for Denver, plunged into
Cole creek early last night and
went down into the raging torrent,
causing a loss of life estimated
early this morning at approximate
ly 40 persons.
The roar of the swollen waters
as they closed over the train in the
stream could be heard for three
miles. .
Cole creek, which is ordinarily
dry creek during the summer
months, was suddenly swollen into
a torrent by the heavy rains of
yesterday. About 9 o'clock the
Denver train swept around curve
and plunged into THE stream. APP
parently the engine got, clear across
the culyert before it broke away
under the weight of the train which
then slipped back into the water,
killing both engineer and fireman.
Cole creek, at a point about
stones throw from the scene of
the wreck, cmpties into the Platte
river, which is more than mile
wide there. Rescue work is be-
ing hampered greatly by the rag
ing and constantly rising waters of
the creek and river.
A telegraph operator who aided
in the rescue work says he. believes
100 persons have persisted, while
the lowest estimate of the dead
made by any one at the scene of
the wreck is 40.
The culvert has been inspected
by track walker one hour before
the wrecked train was due, who re-
ported it alright but water rising.
Early this morning the rescue
work was temporarily halted by
heavy snow, after only few
bodies had been removed from the
wreckage.

FRENCH EXPECT RIHR
GERMANS WILL FIGHT
Believed That Stand VIII Be
Made Against Occupational
Forces by Residents

DUESsELDORF, Sept. 28.-Thc
impression voiced by French Off
cia!s here today is that the popu,
lat:or in the Ruhr is taking stand
against the German governments
and is m favor of con-
tiEu:ng the fight against the occupa-
ton without assistance from Ber-
lin. The idea is gaining ground
among French functionaries here
that opinion in the German popu-
lation of the occupied area is be-
ginning to swing vigorously against
the governments surrender. It is
even feared in some quarters that
German opinion is likely to crys-
taliize into a definite movement
to ignore Chancellor Cheeseman's
orders and try to continue the fight
without Berlin's help.

FIVE. thousand HEiR
DR.. SOULE IN ADDRESS
KTWANIS CLUB
Huge Throng Gathered at Fair
Grounds Last Night With
Civic Club Program
TALK ON PRACTICAL LINES
Farmers Garry Home Lesson
Learned From Speaker, Who
Pointed Out Evils

Five thousand persons were at
the fair grounds here last night to
hear DR.. Andrew NJ. Soule's SPLEEN
did address on Investigation as a
cure fer ills of Georgia cotton farm
ers, ind to view the exhibits being
shown there this weef.
The attendance was the largcss
yet registered, but it is entity
expected by the managers of the
fair that this will he topped to-
night, and that Satu,d day igEt will
witness the ia. gcst uni or Ct vis-
itors at the fair ever known in the
history of such exhibitions in SUM
ter county.
The luncheon feature of the pro-
gram was staged by the Americas
Kiwanis club in the tent of the Lee
Street church ladies was a distinct
feature of the fair, serving to ac-
quaint hundreds of visitors there
with the club spirit and enthusiasm
which has done so much t oadvance
civic interest in Americas.
Hundreds of friends of the XII
wanians thronged every part of the
grounds and for two hours follow
ing the speaking the many attrac.
tons scattered about the grounds
were we'll patronized by these.
DIR. Soule, who handled his sub
ject in a most earnest manner,
spoke during fifty minutes, receive
ing the closest attention through
out his address. He was introduce
ed by Stephen Pace. Farmers from
all over the county who heard him
went back to their homes with
new appreciation of the science of
farming and many of them with a
definite resolve to profit by the
advice contained in the address.
Dir. Soule, is an advocate of cot
ton farming, without which he does
not believe the South can really
prosper, and considerable portion
oof his address was devoted to an
explanation of the difficulties fac
ed by the cotton farmers and REM
edies for these. To concentrate
upon one variety of cotton in Civ
en- communities, DR.. Soule said,
gives to such community dis
tinct advantage over another where
different varieties of the staple are
planted, with prices based as a re-
suit on the lowest prades produced
in the community.
he related the experience of one
Georgia county where many varie-
ties of cotton had been planted a
few years ago, as compared with
another where farmers had con-
centrated upon a given variety.
Mills and manufacturing consumers
desiring certain staple for a CIV
en- purpose will pay premium for
such cotton, DIR. Soule said, and
wherever an entire community con-
centrates upon a given variety of
staple such community is most like
w will receive better prices during
the market season, The Council

MYSTERY SHOTS
CAUSE RUCTI ON
in CITY CENTER

Seven pistol shots, fired in rapid
succession, broke the sabbath-like
quiet of FL Centre at $3.50 last
night, causing considerable excite
ment in the vicinity of fifth and
Main streets, while citizens and po-
lice rushed to the alley in the rear
of the Palace theatcr, from whence
the sound of the shots came.
Among the first to reach the
scene were Officer Applegate, who
was standing at Fifth and Main
streets, and Fire Chief Ferguson,
who was working in his shop on
Fifth Street.
The succession of shots was brok
en-, sounding as though two guns
were in use, and those who ran to
the alley fully expected to see at
least one and possibly two badly
wounded or dead men.
A search of the alley and adjoin-
ing yards failed to reveal any cas-
ualties, nor could anyone be found
who would admit firing the shots.
Ferguson said the bullets landed
ON the roof of his shop, and seve-
ran men standing near the post Of
flee claimed the gun or guns we've
fired into the air, as they plainly
saw the flashes caused by each
shot

NO REASON FOR FURTHER CUTIN
TIRE PRICES, SAYS MANUFACTURER

cline slightly, due to diminished de-
mand.
=" Yet in spite of the fact that
manufacturers had been compelled
to buy high priced materials, and
are still using them, prices were
again reduced in June to bring them
into line with the current market
price of raw materials.
''No one can tell what tire
prices will do in the future for no
one can tell what the market prices
of raw materials will be. But the
fact remains that Goodyear Tires,
with prices based on the present
market on raw materials, are very
low.
"With the active buying season
well advance at this time, with the
world s rubber supply greatly reduc-
ed, and with the present high rate
of consumption it would seem unrea-
sonable to expect any further de-
cline in raw materials
