500 BACKED VENTURE.
Stand to Lose Heavily as Snug
Cling Scheme Fails.

Nv Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News.
LONDON, April 2O.-The offices of
Sir Broderick Hartwell, the whisky
running baronet," were besieged today
by anxious investors in his smuggling
schemes, following the reported cap
ture by American prohibition authori-
ties of a huge cargo of whisky.
Sir Broderick sailed a month ago
on the schooner Amanda to superin-
tend delivery of his seventh shipment
of intoXicants, upon which he had
guaranteed investors a profit of 120
per cent. In message just received
in London, Sir Broderick declares the
intensive American campaign against
smuggling brought disaster to the
y enture. over 10000 cases having been
confiscated. The balance of the car
go was transferred to three smaller
craft which he was forced to charter
at exorbitant rates.
Profits Exhausted.
His profits already have been con-
sumed by heavy expenses, and unless
the small craft are successful in un-
loading the remainder of the cargo
the investors will lose every penny.
1t is estimated that nearly thou
sand persons paid Hartwell various
sums two months ago, enabling him
TO buy the Inflated cargo. Their only
safeguard now lies in the statement
published in Sir Broderick's circu-
lars, which said barring marine ac-
cidents, in which case l will return
your money, l guarantee to return to
you any money you invest, plus 4
shillings in the pound, within 60 days
from the date the vessel leaves Eng
land"
Naturally, the investors chance of
securing a return upon their invest
ment depends upon what funds Sir
Broderick commands with which to
meet his obligations. Judging by one
of his recent messages, this will not
he much.

SOVIET HEDGES ON DEBTS

PARIS, April 20.-Prof. Preobra-

of an agreement regarding the Rus

will not recognize the indebtedness
of the old regime, but the presence

the problem is not considered insoluble
by the Moscow government.

not recognize the debt and then work
out a method by which the holders of

BARBERRYBUSH
Government Men Start Drive
Today in Southern N. ID.
Counties

Fargo, n. D., July l--lF)-With
their packs bullying with salt bombs
and every man armed with grub
axes. spades and other weapons
suitable for hand to- hand encoun-
tiers, twenty barbcrry scouts, repre-
senting the federal government. will
take the field today to lead North
Dakota citizens in a continuation of
the war on the common barberry
which spreads black stem rust of
grain.
A tier of counties in the southern
part Of the state will be the initial
objective Of the scouts who will seek
to annihilate the disease bearing
bush from that section of the Flick
er state. Total eradication, author
tiles declare, will check the devel
opment of rust outbreaks and reduce
to a minimum, if not entirely elm
mate, the danger of the destructive
epdemics which have cost the grain
growers an average of $5O,OUO,OOO
annually for the past ten years.
The battle against the barberry, in
which the federal government and
thirteen north central wheat states
are cooperating, will be conducted
in North Dakota again this year un-
Mayoue, United States plant path
o.ogist and state leader in barberry
eradication.
Campaign Plan Made
1--WE have found some 22,OOO
bushes in North Dakota said Mr.
Mayoue. "How many there are left
we do not knows In addition there
are q large number Of bushes that
have been destroyed voluntarily of
which no record has been made. We
expect to continue to add to this
rapidly growing number during the
coming summers campaign.
"The plan Of the campaign is to
survey the state, county by county.
The field men will visit every farm
| and make a careful inspection Of
cities and towns. Their orders are
to see that every bush is destroyed
as required by the state law. The
bushes are generally killed by dig
ging or by placing salt at the base
of the bush, which will kill it as we'll
as prevent sprouting.
| "Public cooperation is absolutely
necessary in this work. With the
| small force at our disposal and the
amount of territory which we must
| cover in short season, 1t is human
~ Impossible to find every barberry
bush. What we hope to DO is to ac-
/ quaint the people of each communl-
ty with the identity of the barbcrry
and show them its connection with
the losses caused by black stem
rust"
A single barhcrry bush. Mr.. May
Que said has been known to caust
serious rust losses.
| In many instances. large number
Of which are on record. the bushes
have been traced by an cxccptionallA

state such as North Dakota, which is
wind swept, this is difficult to do
although last summer one decisive
case was found. ~
The rustcd areas north Of James
town were noticed by field worker:
to have an exceptionally heavy in
lection and scouts were brought il
to make farm to farm search TO
the bushes. They were found i!
northern Stutsman county, 80 in all
and the area is being watched will

that the rust will be lessened con
; siderably.
