any technical knowledge of the proper
foods.

ATTORNEY GENERAL OPENS
WAR ON MONOPOLIES

st. Paul, Minn.-"Effective dissolu-
ton" of the International Harvester
company's alleged monopoly of the
farm machinery business is sought by
Attorney General Stone in a brief filed
in his behalf in federal court here Oct.
%, by the United States attorney in
proceedings supplemental to the con-
sent decree in dissolution entered in
the same court in 1918.
Mr.. Stone contends that greater COM
petitive conditions in the farm machin-
cry trade should be afforded. The con-
sent decree did not go far enough, he
said, demanding that action be taken
to give proper protection to the farm
ers and land owners who are depen-
dent upon agricultural machinery and
implements obtainable at reasonable
prices"
'sThat the International Harvester
company is in combination in restraint
of trade and a monopoly in violation
of the Sherman law" the brief asserts,
"is conclusively established by the de-
cision and decree of the court which
stands unreserved and modified"

Staying OF CHINAMAN IN
MANILA STARTS RACE WAR

Manila.-Ohinese s~torekeepers n
this city, fearing further attacks by
FIlipinos following rioting of Oct. IS,
kept their places of business closed
Sunday.
One Chinese was killed, the only IA
tality in Saturdays fighting, but Is
Chinese were sent to hospitals for
treatment of injuries inflicted by Fill
pino mobs, and scores of others suffer-
ed slight wounds from stones thrown
by crowds in various parts of the city.
The entire police force remained on
duty throughout the night and 800 Fill
pinos were arrested, charged with riot
ing.
While the police claim that the sit
uation is now under control, fear is ex-
pressed that the feeling against the
Chinese may result in further out
breaks and, possibly, spread to other
cities.
A serious race riot was threatened as
the result of the killing of Cheng Sui,
a Chinese merchant, by a Filipino, in a
quarrel v a business transaction.
Mayor Romualdez sent a letter to the
Chinese consul general, regretting that
Filipinos had attacked Chinese and
promising to use all the forces of the

cred in the Missoula river five miles

ties from the sheriff's office were no.
titled and the body was brought to the
city.

the river from the west bank and be-
came exhausted before he reached the
other shore, and it is the belief that the
body did not drift far.

residents of Orchard Homes advised
the police and sheriff's offices that a
demented man was in the neighbOr-
hood. Officers went to the scene and

but could find no trace of anyone.
That the body is that Of Mike Ker-
wallis, who disappeared from a Mil

the opinion of Coroner John Forken-

DELAY DUE TO ERROR
BRINGS NEW EVIDENCE

Because of a clerical error there was
delay in the payment of the death
claim Of Alexander Sarri, a miner kill
ed in a Butte mine. Had the error not
been made, the mining company would
have paid the $1,000 lump sum under
the state industrial accident law to a
Butte woman whom Sarri had married.
While the clerical mistake was being
corrected, the Finnish consul in Butte
came with a claim that Sarri had a
wife in Finland from whom he had not
been divorced also a family.
If this claim is substantiated by evil
dence which will convince the indus
trial accident board, the clerical error
will have had the effect of giving the
money to the woman and family in Fin
land.

HAIL BOARD
REPORTS LOSSES

Hail losses this year under the state
hail insurance plan are about 90 pei
cent of the amount of premiums levied,
according to e. X. Bowman, chairman
of the state board of hail commission
ers. This, Mr.. Bowman says, is about
the average loss Of stock companies
operating in Montana. >
Losses which the state board has this
year approximate $4,000. 1t is unlike
~ that premium collections, obtained
through tax levies against the persons
insured against hail losses will be-
much below 100 per cent. Something
from the margin between losses and
collections must be taken for the cost
of administration, which with the state
is considerably less than with private
concerns. Some of the stock COM
panies say hat it costs them Is pei
cent to do business.

Agent G. w. Gustafson of Chinook
says that the Blaine county agricultur-
al credit committee, operating in con.
lions, has received 20 applications fol-
loans from farmers who desire to buy
small flocks of sheep. There has been
such a demand for sheep this fall in
North Dakota especially, that virtually
has been taken up. Prices are higher
than the credit corporation will ap.
prove, and it is not likely they will
make any purchases.
