WATER-LOGGED CHAIR CAR
BATTLES WORKERS. EFFORTS

Casper, Wyo.-A water-logged chair
cal, one end wedged in the sand of the
creek bed, the other extending 80 feet
into the air, is baking the efforts of
more than so men and a wrecking
train to clear away the tangled re-
mains of the Burlington passenger
train which piled up in Cole creek, east
of Casper.
The chair car, partially filled with
wet sand, has resisted all attempts to
hoist it out with the derrick of the
wreck train. In its present position
the car virtually blocks all work as
both it and the baggage car must be
moved before. the buried smoking car
can be searched for the bodies of adj
ditional victims of the wreck. The
chair car also is directly in the path
of the pile driver which is construct
ing a temporary bridge across the
stream, and the operations OF the
driver were halted,

COLOR OF CATERPILLAR
FAITHFUL WEATHER SIGN
Libby "Seer" Predicts Long Fall, Short
Winter, Early Spring For
Montana

Long fall, short, concentrated win
ter, early spring.
Leo Faust, the seer from the north
woods of Libby, makes the prediction.
Before telling how he does it or what
name of rhyme or reason he employs
in reaching this conclusion, Mr.. Faust
looks v%agrantly over his spectacles and
mentions that in the Libby country the
folks have never failed to read the
winter season in advance by the meth
cd he uses.
'"This morning / met up with a big
caterpillar" Mr.. Faust remarked. The
NATURAL orange color extends quite a
way from his head on this means that
Wen have a long, unbroken fall. Then
l saw a black ring-solid in color; and
this means that the winter will be
short and pronounced, for if the winter
were to be i~nterspersed with other
weather, the black in the ring would
be notified with the orange. Then I
found the remainder of the bug colored
with the orange hue-early spring."
Mr.. Faust pooh-poohs the idea of
predicting winter conditions through
the long hair of the coyote or in any
of these other ways, but is willing to
bet all his stock in the Montana Mining
association that the caterpillar version
is accurate.

POWDER RIVER FLOODS
EAST END OF STATE
Broadus, Montana, Weathers Twelve
Foot Rise Without Loss Of
Life, Report Says

Miles City, Mont.-Broadus, Mon
tana has weathered a turbulent 12-fOOt
flood in the Powder river without any
known loss of life, but it is feared the
peril did not pass without some human
toll along the course of the torrent
that swept the valley, carrying down
as flotsam, livestock, horses, hay
stacks and houses. While the flood
lasted, jewellers who could not flee to
higher ground were marOOned in their
homes till rescued by boats. Mean
while the river expanded to a width
varying from one to five miles.
Many residents spent the night in
the school house while the flooG lasted,
but with its recession, they have been
enabled to return to their homes.
1t is expected the r%eceding waters
will give opportunity for the people to
move back into their homes. There is
no thought among the people, it is
stated, that they will come to Miles
City to get away from the rising tide.
The report SEN into the city by
Hugo Camplin, editor of the Powder
River county Examiner, stated that
the new $4,000 bridge across the river
near the town was hanging on, but
some doubt was expressed that it
would withstand the pressure.

LIGHTNING BOLTS
NEXT WAR WEAPON
MAN MADE FLASHES WILL WORK
DESTRUCTION FOR GREAT
DISTANCES
NEW VOLTAGE IS DISCOVERED
Electrical Wizards In Annual Meeting
Make Startling Disclosures
of Recent Discoveries

Del Monte, Cal.-Startling disclos-
ures of progress in electrical science
marked the closing session here, of the
Pacific coast convention of the Ameri-
can Institute of Electrical Engineers,
which has been in progress for the last
week, with leading electrical engineers
and physicists in attendance.
In a technical address, in which he
announced the discovery of a new law
concerning spark discharge from high
voltage, Prof. Harris J. Ryan. of Stan
ford university, indicated that science
has found a way TO produce a voltage
capable of projecting an annihiliating
electrical bolt over vast distance.
In a statement commenting upon the
revelations made by Prof. Ryan, Rob
ert Sibley, former vice president of the
institute, declared that the new law
announced may mean that in some
future war our scientists may be able
to hurl and control a bolt of lightning
across the western or eastern ocean.
"Dr. Steinmetz already has produced
a million volts in the laboratory" he
continued, land there is no reason to
doubt that a voltage of three or foul
million may 500 be produced. The
spark capable of being discharged by
such enormous voltage and its destruc-
tive power is almost beyond belief"
Professor Ryan revealed for the
first time the results of his researches
relating to his voltage transmission
and declared that it now will be pos
sible to increase materially the pro-
duction of voltage, even above the
100000 volts, regarded as the limit of
power transmission at present. The
new law, evolved through experiments
in controlling leakage from the wire in
transmission, is based OF the ratio of
distance to which a spark may be pro-
jected and the voltage.
New discoveries in the field of cleo
trical science also were detailed by
DR.. Charles P. Steinmetz, chief con-
sulting engineer of the General Elec-
trio corporation.

FIRST RETURNS IN OKLAHOMA
INDICATE OVERWHELMING
MAJORITY FOR kU KLUx
PEOPLE BACK K. XXX. s6L0NS
in Spite of Friction Between
klansmen and Executive

Oklahoma City, Okla.-The people
of Oklahoma have given a mandate to
their legislature to assemble and re-
view the official acts of Governor j.
G. Walton.
The courts probably will be required
to pass upon the legality of the order,
but the citizens of the state, ignoring
the decree of the executive postpon-
ing the election, tested his threat to-
use force of arms to stay their suffrage
and instructed their representatives at
the polls in a decisive manne
With virtually one-fourth of the
state heard from it is indicated that a
constitutional amendment to open the
way for the state legislature to on
slider the official record of Walton has
swept to victory with the greatest ma
jority ever recorded in an election in
Oklahoma.
On the basis of returns compiled by
four newspapers of the state, it is in
Dictated that the measure will carry
by approximately 100000.
Six hundred and fifty precincts out
of 1887 in the state on the PROPOSE
ton give: Yes, 76,361 no, 1881. It
is estimated that the total vote will
be approximately 100000.
Partial returns from 38 out of II
counties in the state indicated that the
measure had won in each.
In two counties no votes were cast
because election supplies did not ar
rive from Oklahoma City, the state
election having been delayed by last
minute litigation over the election.
Oklahoma City, the governors home
town, on the basis of the early official
returns was voting more than 6 to 1
to open the way for the legislature to-
consider his record.
Governor ]. G. Walton issued the
following statement:
"The fight on the invisible empire
has just started in Oklahoma I am
still governor of the state"

OF IS WRECK
VICTIMS RECOVERED
Used In Resumed Traffic
On Burlington

Casper, Wyo.-Sixteen bodies havt
been removed from the Cole creek
wreck, with the finding of one believed
to be that of Jay Griswold, a tank
builder of Casper, from under the
beam of the smoking car in the bed OF
the stream.
A body believed to be that of J. Z.
Jensen, of Boise, Idaho, was retrieved
Schmetz, of Douglas, Wyo., was dug
out of the sands.
Railroad officials expected to lift
the almost hopelessly buried Pullman
but little hope is held out for finding
bodies in this car.
Schmetz's wife, one of the survivors,
was rescued by another passenger af-
ter she had been washed from the
chair car by the flood and carried
down stream, clinging to a piece of
driftwood. Scmetz had left his wife
in the chair car and gone into the
smoker just before the wreck occurred.
Schmetz's body was the fourth re-
covered. Two others dug from the
smoker were identified as w. E. Hin
richs, railway mail clerk of Fort Col
Inns, and Carl Linn, address unknown.
The body discovered on the bank of
the Platte river three miles down
stream has not been identified.
The thirteenth victim was found
washed up by the Platte river three
miles below the scene of the wreck,
according to a message received at
division headquarters. The body had
not beer identified when the message
was received. 1t was found by a patrol
of railroad employees.
An unidentified mar was dug up
earlier in the day. Near the unidenti-
fled body was a coat containing papers
belonging to Carl Linn, a former en-
ploye of the Ohio Oil company, but
railroad officials could not determine
whether the coat belonged with the
body.
With train service resumed over a
bridge and shovel crews
working steadily in the search for
bodies, rapid progress is being made
clearing away the w~reckage.

DAKOTA STATE OWNED MILL
SHOWS DEFICIT OF $124,581

Bismarck, N. D.-North Dakota's
~state-owned flour mill at Grand Forks
sustained an operating loss from Octo-
Der %, 1922, to July 1, 1923, of $124,-
5S1.75, according to the first public
audit of the enterprise made for the
state industrial commission and issued
by that body here.
The operating loss per barrel Of
flour is given as 40 cents on each bar
rel produced.
The terminal elevator erected to
function in connection with the mill
contributed materially to the deficit,
the report says, the elevator not being
ready in time to handle any of the
1922 crop of wheat.

lieved the maximum feasible speed in
aircraft had been reached, because
limitations on landing speed would
