MORE THAN 100 DIE
IN ITALIAN LANDSLIDE
Thousands Made Homeless and Rain
fall Adds to Hardships; Many
Given Chance to Escape

Salerno, Italy.-More than 100 per-
sons are known to have persisted in
the landslides which occurred Wednes-
Gay, March 26, in the region surround
ing Amalfi.
Thousands have been rendered
homeless. Many people of the region
are missing. but whether they are
dead or have made their escape and
are fearful of returning. cannot be as
certained now.
The torrential rain continued to
fall making more acute the plight of
those left without shelter. The land
slide has left Amalfi virtually sur
rounded by debris. Everywhere is to
be seen the wreckage of houses and
huge rocks and ~uprooted trees, which
we're in the path of the moving
earth.
When the landslides started along
a tract of 800 yards, the noise resem-
bled that of an eruption Of Mount Yes
uvius.
Therefore there was timely warning
to many of the inhabitants and the Wis
itors in the hotels to make good their
escape.

RAILROAD SUES AUTO
DRIVER FOR DAMAGE
FREIGHT Car Gets Worst of It in Col
Iision; Plaintiff Sues for
Repairs

There have been thousands or IN
stances in which a railroad company
was made defendant in a suit for dam
ages, but at last there has arisen B.
suit in which a railroad company Is
the plaintiff in a damage action-and
all because of the alleged fact that
in a collision between an automobile
and a freight car the freight car got
the worst of it.
In district court the Great Northern
Railroad company has brought suit
against Stewart Johnson. According
to the complaint filed by yeazey, Cliff
& Glover, Johnson ran his automobile
into a freight train of the Great North
ern and hit one of the cars in the
train with sufficient force to put ii
out of commission.
Damages amounting to $5S.46 for re-
pairs to the car are asked and the cost
to the railroad of having the car out OF
commission and service is estimated at
a dollar a day for II days, making
the total $7O.46.
The accident, it is alleged, took place
near Great Falls.

Daugherty has resigned.
Surrounded by an ever-growing
storm of criticism, and under the
pressure of many of his ranking
party leaders, he consented to fol-
low Secretary DENLY into retire

His resignation, sent to Preei-
dent Coolidge March %, was
promptly accepted.
The factor which had the great
est weight in bringing the question
of Mr.. D~augherty's status to an
acute issue was a conviction on
the part of the president that un-
der present conditions public bust
ness is not receiving the attention
merited by it in the department of
justice.
There is no doubt also that the re-
peated charges made before the senate
committee, leading directly to the door
of the attorney generals office al.
though not involving him directly,
have had their Influence in finally de-
termining his fate.
Mr.. Daugherty had insisted that he

he had been given an opportunity TO

Double Tracking on the G.. N.-With-
in the next two weeks, it is expected,
200 men will be at work on the con-
struction of the 16 miles of double
track for the Great Northern between
Havre and Lehman.
The contract for the work was let
to the A. Guthrie company of ST. Paul
and Superintendent Bartlett is already
on hand to start the work. Four steam
shovel outfits will arrive in Havre this
week, it is expected. The Guthrie bid
for the work was approximately $780,,
COO Fuglevand & Sundberg of Havre
have contracted a portion of the CON
crete work and Neut & Baker have
sub-contracted some IF the team work.
Fifty men of the regular building
and bridge crews are at work at pres
ent on the new fuel oil plant in the
yards and concrete work for the new
turntable is practically completed.
Surplus Corn Sold.-Figures from
the elevator at Winrett show that so
far this winter 2S,SSR bushels of corn
have been marketed, with an estimated
value of more than $4,000. This rep
resents the surplus corn raised in that
section and does not take into conSi1-
GRAFTON what has been used for feed
and the amount being kept on the
farms for seed.
A number of large ranches in the
Flatwillow country are buying large
quantities of corn to feed their stock
for the May market. This is the first
time this practice has been adopted in
central Montana. 1t is stated that
sheep fed on corn produce wool that
brings a better price, and raise better
lambs.
Epidemic Of MeasIes.-An epidemic
of measles threatens to close the
Browning schools. In one day recently
the school physician made Ii calls at
homes of the sick and tackled up nine
quarantine cards. 1t is reported that
there are 33 children out of the pri-
mary room all reported with measles.

cOunty's $4,000 summer fallOw acres
in 1922 fell to 1000 in 1923. H. f..

the testimony developed, however, it
became apparent that if he were to
vindicate his department it would be-
come necessary for him to disprove
also the charges against Jess Smith
and others closely associated with him.
The resignation was submitted at
the request of the president and in
acceding Mr.. Daugherty said he de-
| sired it to become effective forthwith.
President Coolidge's letter request
ing the resignation, based the request
on the attorney generals refusal to
| comply with the summons by the SEN
ate investigation committee for GER
tain papers relating to gun running on
the Mexican border.
Mr.. Daugherty said he rendered 1t
.'solely out of Difference to your re-
quest and in compliance herewith"
Besides the Daugherty committee
disclosures, testimony has been given
before the oil committee that the at
torney general dealt in Sinclair oil
stock after he entered the cabinet that
he and others in the justice depart
ment were seeking to shield Edward
B. Mclean from appearance on the
witness stand in the oil inquiry, n
that Mclean himself was a special
agent of the department.
The correspondence covering the
resignation was made public at the
White House without comment, but at
the department of justice Mr.. Daugh-
erty Immediately prepared a statement
setting forth again his side.
This statement took the form of a
second letter to the president in which
the retiring attorney general declared
the grounds on which his retirement
had been forced seemed to him Jun
tenable."
