Miss ChOrley broke a heel OF her
shoe as she rushed downstairs and
called for help.
Other residents of the house said
they heard a fusillade of shots and
there are no witnesses to what hap
pened in the apartment after Miss
Chorley left.
Police Chief Called
Police Chief Christ j. Martineson
was called and a dead silence pre-
vailed in the apartment house as he
approached the door. a small crowd
of onlookers at his heels.
He unlocked the door and pushed
it open and simultaneously there
came a shot within and the sound as
of a body slumping to the floor. Mar
tineson found Tramp's body lying In
a pool of blood on the bathroom floor.
He had shot himself in the head.
Miss Motifs body was lying in the
apartment living room near the en-
trance door. She had been shot
twice and apparently OF these
shots was fired after she had slumped
to the floor. The first shot entered
over her heart. The second entered
the top of her shoulder and penetrat-
ed downward, coming out the small
of her back. hospital attaches said.
Martineson had not completed his
investigation of the apartment but at
3 O'Clock had found four empty shells.
Five loaded shells remained IN the
pistol, including n which had
jammed In the breach and prevented
its further operation. he said.
Had Threatened Before
The background of the tragedy was
provided by Miss Chorley. who said
she had been told by Miss Moffit that
Tramp had threatened her on several
occasions. He had followed her
around town after she had refused to
go out with him further, Miss Choir
ley said. and had expressed the wish
to report him to the police for bother
ing her. She failed to do so, Miss
Chorley said. only because her rela-
tives and ON Of Tramp's relatives
were intermarried and she had no
wish to make trouble in the family.
Just what the family interconnec-
ton was between the Tramp and
Moffit families was she did not un-
derstand, Miss Chorley said.

MonopIane Leave
POSTMARK FANS ARE BUSY
First Incoming Mail Was Sched-
uIed to Reach Capital City
at 1898 p. m.

Bismarck and western North Dako-
ia enjoyed their first airmail service
Tuesday.
Taking off promptly at $3.50 a. m.
from the site of the proposed Joint
Bismarck-M andan airport in the riv-
er bottoms west of the Liberty Me-
mortal Bridge, Pilot G. L. Smith nosed
his big all-metal monoplane into the
air. "waggled" his wings in goodby
to the crowd which had gathered to
see him of, and disappeared over
the Eastern horizon.
About 500 persons from Bismarck
and Mandan were on hand to watch
the initial flight of a service which
brings the twin cities of the Missouri
hours nearer the eastern centers
than they ever have been before.
The plane carried 1903 pounds Of
mail Of which ITO pounds came from
the postoffice at Mandan and 1874
pounds from the postoffice at Bis
marck, Smiths records showed. A
large percentage of the pay load from
each city represented letters which
had been sent by souvenir hunters to
the postmasters of the two cities to be
placed on the first outgoing airmail.
"A large number of persons, accord
ing to Harry Larson. assistant post
master at Bismarck, have a hobby of
collecting initial airmail postmarks.
From Foreign Countries
Some of the letters received from
postmark fans came from foreign
countries and South America. In all,
1t was estimated that letters left here
Tuesday for at least a dozen differ
ent countries.
The first incoming mail wa sched-
uled to arrive here at 1898 and 1t al
so will be landed at the site of the
proposed joint airport. Larson said
special arrangements have been made
to speed it to the ~postoffice here and
to hurry lis distribution. This will
be a routine practice with the post
office, he said. and letters coming in
on the airmail generally will be in
the boxes within half an hour after
the planes arrival.
The main celebration Of the inau-
gural flight of the new service was
held at Bismarck following the arri-
val of the west-bound plane from
Fargo. Col. L. H. Brittin, vice presi-
dent and general manager OF the

OCEAN FLIERS,
LOST 6 DAYS,
ARERESCUE

HALIFAX. N. g.. Sept. q. Up
Safe after six days and nights on
the stormy North Atlantic. three
men who tried to fly from Lisbon
to New York without a stop were
wondering today where fate would
drop them next.
Willy Rody and Christian Johans-
sen, Germans. and Fernando Costa
Vega, Portuguese, who flew out Of
Portugal a week ago Sunday morning
and had not been een since the
afternoon Of Sept. IA. we're fished
out OF the ocean yesterday by the
crew of the Norwegian motorship
Belmoira. about 80 miles off Gaze
Pine on the Newfoundland coast.
Terse wireless messages said they
had been brought aboard after b.
wTeckage Of their airplane had been
sighted but did not indicate how they
would be disposed OF. Vega was said
to have an injured leg. It was held
likely that the Belmoira, bound for
Leningrad with a load of locomn-
tives, would drop them at st. Johns
or transfer them to a passing ship.
In the absence Of more complete
information aviation circles were
specializing as to what must have
been the fliers' experiences during
their 1873 hours at the mercv OF wind
and wave. When they left they had
only a few sandwiches and three
loaves Of bTead-all OF which must
have long since been exhausted.
The airmen left a flying field near
Lisbon early Sunday and were next
sighted over the Azores about noon
They swooped over the steamer
Pennland the following afternoon
about 30 miles southwest OF Cape
Race and headed in the direction VI
New York. approximately 1000 miles
TO the south. They were not heard
from again.
Their plane was a Junkers all
metal. once owned by Charles A. Le-
vine, first transatlantic air passen-
ger, and a sister ship Of the trans
ocean Bremen. 1t carried enough
fuel for 40 hours In the air but had
no radio. II was christened the -Esar
in honor Of Roby's fiancee in Ger
many.

Mexican Citrus
Gets New Mart
(By Staff CORRESPONDENT,


SAN BENITO Sept. 22-One OF
the first definite results OF the t-ip
10 Canada made BY Gen. Juan An
dreu Almazan, Mexican minister OF
communications, may be the expor-
tation Of oranges on a large scale
from the Mexican state of Nuevo
Leon TO the Dominion, according 70
advices received here.
Strict embargo maintained by the
U. S. against Mexican oranges has
held down the citrus industry of
Mexico for years and discouraged
the growers and the new trade out
let IS expected to raise the price TO
the grower.
If the direct ocean routes proposed
by Gen. Almazan on his return can
be opened up. shipments Of the fruit
to Canadian points can be accom-
plished with a minimum OF freight
costs and in sery little longer time
than Is necessary when shipments
are made in refrigerator cars, on ac-
count OF the red tape required when
fruit has crossed the u. S. in bond.
