CHINESE TONG
WAR SEEN IN
MANY CITIES
Reported Invasion of New
York by 20 Hip Songs
Stirs Other Tong

New York, Oct. 23.--News of the
arrival of 20 members of the Hip
Sing tong in Newark from Cleveland
is reported to have reached residents
of Chinatown through underground
channels today. The mid-western
Chinese were believed to be bent on
reprisals for recent tong war slay
ings. Although the bands arrival
could not be verified in Newark, po-
lice here prepared against the posi-
bility of an invasion and took all
possible steps to prevent further
bloodshed among members of the
warning tongs. A score of plain
clothesmen were stationed at strate-
gic points in Chinatown last night
to watch for the first sign of an out
break.
Reports of the expected invasion,
spreading rapidly through the Mott
Pell-Doyer street neighborhoods soon
cleared the streets Of all Chinese ex-
cept few OnIeong scouts, watching
for the anticipated arrival Of their
enemies.
Even these scouts concealed them
selves in darkened doorways.
Onleong leaders, police say, have
been expecting Hip Sing invasion
for the past "a hours and have pre-
pared for simultaneous attacks in a
half dozen cities throughout the
country. Renewal of tong hostilities,
police said, have been expected by
Chinese in Toledo, Cleveland, Buff
alo and Detroit.

DRIVE OPENED
FOR FINISH IN
N. D. CAMPAIGN
Both Independent and Non
partisan League Head
quarters Getting Busy

With the election less than two
weeks off, campaign organizations
in North Dakota are launching inten-
sive finish drives.
Both Halvor Halvorson, coalition
candidate for Governor, and A. G..
Sorlie, Republican, -Nonpartisan cam
didate, are out in the field speaking
and will continue to do so.
Mr.. HalvorsGD continues his as
saults on the Gbrevious Nonpartisan
League regime and the state indus
trial program, as regards expansion.
He has declared for two years more
experiment of the Grand Forks mill
and submission to the people if the
experiment is not success at that
time. Mr.. Halvorson is pointing to
the taxes paid for the state industrial
program repeatedly in his arguments.
Mr.. Sorlie is taking the position
that the Grand Forks mill is the big
question in the campaign, and he
says. that if elected he believes the
mill can be made to pay. He will
speak in Bismarck Friday night.
The Nonpartisan League headquar-
ters here and the Independent head
quarters at Fargo are directing a
corps of speakers in the state, and
both sides are promoting intensive
organization work.
One Of the bitterest fights being
waged is in the Second Congression-
al District, where Thomas Hall of
Bismarck and Gerald Nye of Cooper
stown are competing for the short
term in Congress, which will last un-
til next March 4, and for the long
term Of two years commencing next
March 4. In the long term race is
M. G. Freerks of jamestown, on the
Nonpartisan League Party ballot.
u. S. Senator +. F. Ladd joined
Nye in Il campaign tour in the dis
trict, following Congress Voight, and
u. S. Senator Frazier also is cam
paigning; in the district. Mr.. Hall is
out campaigning in the district. The
short term election, to succeed Con-
gressman George M. Young, resigned,
is regarded as important in that it is
possible the presidential election may
60 into the House of Representatives.
A bitter fight in the judicial race
is being stirred up in the First Dis
trict, where prohibition forces are
after District Judge A. T.. Cole be-
cause of many suspended sentences.
G. S. Shippy is being supported by
opponents. The Methodist Church
conference at Minot passed resol-
ution aimed against Judge Cole. Two
other judges, Englert and Cooley, are
virtually without opposition.

SAY CARNEGIE
CLAIM IS JUST
State Board Believes Valid
Claim Exists

Records which date back to 1907
are in the hands of the state board
of administration, in reference to
the claim of the Home Trust Com
pany of Hoboken, N. j., administra-
tor of the estate of the late Andrew
Carnegie, for $4,000 principal and
unpaid interest on loan said to have
Sbeen made to the North Dakota In
dustrial School and School for Man
ual Training at Glendale.
Suit has been entered in district
court by the trust company to col
lect the sum, advanced in 1902 to
build Carnegie Hall.
While there has been some. OBJ
lection raised to the claim by some
familiar with the transaction at the
time, on the ground that it was un-
derstood to be gift, the state board
of administration. according to mem
bers, feels that it is valid CLAIM,
and should be paid by the state. The
Legislature, it is claimed, has recog-
nized the debt by paying interest un-
til two years ago, when no appropria-
tion was made for interest.
The records of the board show
that trustees in 1902 felt that the
need of more room at the institution
was imperative. The board of trus-
tees, on April 8. 1902, adopted a re-
solution to the effect that the loan
would be repaid from revenues from
interest and income upon lands set
aside for the Glendale institution.
The loan was made without legisla-
tive authorization, this being ex-
pected later. A letter in the files
from the late r. +. Marshall, dated
December 90, 1913, said Mr.. Carnegie
made the loan understanding it was
not legal, but expecting the action 20
. be ratified.

During their operations at the bank
the bandits kept the town marshal
and two railroad station attaches
locked in a refrigerator car and also
kept guard over the two night

victims before they quit the town.
Entering the town at go a. m.
the bandits encountered the marshall
Harry McGovern, father of John r.

marched him to the railroad yards,
where they placed him in refriger-
ator car, leaving two men standing
guard.

six bandits cut all outside wires and
when the occupants Of the office re-
fused to open the door at their de-

Population Hides
Quieting the fears of the young
women, the bandits told them to get
back to bed as they would not be
harmed, but they left one of their
number to stand guard at the tele-
phone office.
The remaining five bandits then
went to the First State Bank, pried
open a rear window and entered.
Several shots were fired skyward by
the bandits as they left the outpost
in front of the bank.
