The rerating of ;sl mercantile
buildings in the city Of Bismarck for
the purpose of establishing new fire
insurance rates has been completed,
according to w. b. Johnson, who rep
resents the General Inspection bur-
eau of Minneapolis, and the new cs-
Inmates are now ready for public in
spection. The General Inspection
bureau establishes the insurance
rates for all cities in the northwest
and the rerating was done here to
place the rates on more equitable
basis.
In some cases the rate Of insurance
on buildings was raised, while in
depending entirely upon the condi-
tion of the. building and its equip
ment, as found by the inspectors. In
many instances conditions which
have caused raise in rates can be
easily remedied and the rate lowered
thereby, Mr.. Johnson states, and it
would be we'll for owners of mer-
camille buildings in the city to as
certain just what steps they must
take to bring about reduction in
their rates.
Mr.. Johnson will be at room 4Ol,
Grand Pacific hotel, until noon FRI
day, February II, and will be glad
tc inform anyone interested as to
the new rates OH any building here
and give all the information possible
as to the conditions which determine
the rates.

the belief of William Mitchell, and
the former colonel has rallied to the

Discussing General Patrick as "thc
only member Of the old regime to
see the light and come out and tell
the truth about it," Mitchell said the
general is being made the victim of
an espionage system with the depart
ment. The new investigation of the
air service officers, Mitchell con-
tended, is aimed at any change of
existing conditions and was under
taken at the insistcncc Of the "war

Mitchell characterized the 'cs-

TWO ROADS ARE
PERMITTED TO
POOL SERVICE
Northern Pacific and 500 Line
to Combine Their Trains
to Duluth

Washington, Feb. o. Up). The
Northern Pacific and the Minneapo-
lis, St. Paul and Sault Ste. Marie
railroads, were authorized today by
the Interstate Commerce Commission
to pool their passenger train service
between Duluth and the Twin Cities
Of Minnesota. st. Paul and Mime
apols.
No opposition was made to the APP
plication of the two lines. A Min
nesota state law would forbid par
allel and competing rail carriers
from such pooling Of business, but
this act was held to have been super
seeded by the federal interstate COM
merce law which would permit the
authorization.
For Economy
By combining their passenger
trains, the commission declared, the
two roads could attain additional
economy and at the same time render
satisfactory service.
A previous experiment along the
same line was authorized recently for
service between Portland, Oregon,
and Puget Sound cities in Washing
ton state, where railroads now are
pooling certain train facilities.

Catholic Church Will Not Be-
come Entangled in Compul-
sorry Total Abstinence
Movement = Bishop White
Calls Present Law Largely
a Joke"

New York. Feb. .. tAP) A new
note on prohibition, which has been
agltating the Episcopal church, has
been struck in pronouncement by
Cardinal O'Connell Of Boston that
the Roman Catholic church applauds
voluntary abstinence but opposes
compulsory prohibition.
Cardinal O'Conael did not men
tion the Episcopal controversy, start
ed by the announcement of the
church temperance society of the
Episcopal church that it favored
legalization of light wines and beers
He confined himself to defining
the position of his church and warn
ing Protestant prohibition leaders
that the Catholic church would not
allow itself to be entangled in the
compulsory total abstinence move
ment.
A Differcm: Matter
Although the Catholic church has
long been fighting against intemper-
ance, the cardinal said, compulsory
prohibition is "A different matter.
"For compulsory prohibition" he
said, I'm general is flatly opposed to
holy scripture and to Catholic tradi-
tion.''
When Cardinal Hayes arrived here
last Saturday after holy year visit
to the vatican, he defined the Cath
Ollie church's stand as always for vol
untary temperance and against ex-
tremes like prohibition.
Dr.. James Empringham, national
secretary of the church temperance
society. said yesterday that his or
ganization would continue its move
ment to modify the Volstead act.
Only 10 out Of 141 bishops thus far
have publicly opposed the society s
stand, he said.
Statement Still Stands
He declined to reveal the figures
on which he based announcement
that Il majority of the 10000 men,
bers of the society favored modifi-
cation, but maintained that his ORR
ginal statement stood.
DR.. Empringham said that Bishop
Manning of New York three weeks
ago told him that he did not believe
in prohibition but did believe in en-
forcement Of the law. The bishop
said this statement was in error and
that his strong prohibition sermon
; of Sunday represented his attitude.
Support Of the society's stand came
yesterday from Bishop White of
Springfield, H., who characterized
the present law as largely a joke
| which he believed cannot really be
enforced without standing army
Bishop White asserted he favored
modification Of the Volstead act ION
absolutely conscientious grounds

panys grain elevator was DESTROYED
and lumber yard Of the Northwest
crn Milling and Wrecking company,
adjoining, was damaged early today.
The loss was estimated at $16O,OOO.
Grain estimated at $4,000 bushels

unknown origin started in the struc.
ture. 1t was shortly after 5 a. NJ,
that flames began to shoot up un
elevator shaft near where the men
were working. Then the electric

plunged in darkness, except for the
glow Of the flames.
Burns Rapidly
The fire burned rapidly and with
in short time the mill was DOOM
cd. Within a short time 2l major
pieces of apparatus and 200 fire
men were on the scene.
The fire proved so spectacular that
within short time thousands Of
persons were on the scene. The dis
trict became SO congestcd that traf-
fic lines were strung by the police.
The presence of snow on the roofs
of nearby buildings prevented q
wide and disastrous spread of the

PRESIDENT REFUSES
TO CHANGE POLICY

Washington, Feb. g.. R)--Thc SEN
ate appealed to President Coolidge
today to seek solution Of the an
thracite controversy but the request
was answered, almost Immediately,
by reiteration at the White House
Of the presidents policy of non-inter-
vention.
The senate's action, it was said
officially, had not convinced Mr..
Coolidge that there was any change
in conditions which would justify
change in his policy.
He does not consider the senate's
advice in any way binding upon the
federal government. although he re-
CARDS it as Il valuable expression Of
opinion. He also feels that passage
Of the coal resolution was more or
less necessary in order to save the
time Of the senate and permit it to
center attention on the pending tax
bill. The author of the measure.
Senator Copeland, Democrat, New
York. had given notice he would in
sist on vote on the proposal every
day, and much time was being con-
sumed in roll calls.
The president was described at the
White House as most anxious to see
IA termination of the anthracite sus-
pension but unable to see any
method by which the federal govern
ment. if injected into the situation,
could lend effective assistance to-
ward Il solution.
