RUHR POLICE BODIES ‘ DISARMED BY FRENCH A despatch King George amount of at Expulsion of Force at Dort- mund Completes Dissolution in Occupied Zone. Recently, however, with further organization of nationalist bands and a comparative failure of pacific resist- ance, the probability of assassination was increased. Such was the case in Upper 'Silesia. As 'long as the Ger- mans expected to obtain full satisfac- tion there was little political crime. But the moment it became evident that their claims were failing they be- gan to shoot. MIRACLE OF SURGERY WRQEGi’ET a 0N BODY OF YGUTH SHAWERED IN FALL New York, March 11,â€"Surgeons at the Samaritan Hospital in Brooklyn rI;o-d9.y were elated over what they de- clared: was the miraculous reconstrucâ€" tion of a shattered human body. “These Frenchmen were assassinat- ed in a cowardly manner. They were shot in the back in true German fa- shion.” he said. “We are the stronger here, :but we never abused our power. In this attitude toward the population our soldiers are animated by senti- ments of humanity, but such a crime cannot remain unpunished, and it is only right that it should carry with it terrible sanctions.” To-day War Minister Maginot pin- ned the Cross of the Legion of Honor on the tunic of each. Later M. Magi- not expressed his feelings before the assemUled officers of three battalions here. Though such attacks have always been considered inevitable, as inci- dental to the occupation, this is the first of the kind which has proved fatal. On the few occasions on which French soldiers and officials have been shot, at, it was always from a distance and, except in the case of one sentinel, without damage. The case is that of Sebastian Ricco- bone, 17, the Blue-eyed Italian youth who leaped five stories to escape death in a fire which swept the Weistein Company factory in Thirteenth street, Brooklyn, on October 30 last, causing three deaths. Riccobone was taken to the hospital suffering from injuries which included: Fractures of the spine, skull, pelvis and right arm; paralysis of “both legs; punctured bladder and intestines; third degree Dusseldorf, March 11.â€"Assassina- tion has been added to the German methods of resistance in the Ruhr. Last evening at about 9.30 o‘clock, on a country road near the town of Buer, a French patrol found the bodies of a second Lieutenant of infantry, Lieut. Coltin of the Ohaus‘seurs, and a rail- roadman, M. Joly, who was filling the post of stationmaster at Buer, who had been shot dead with a revolver. The two 'bodies were some 20 paces apart, and each had one bullet-hole in the back. The men had been shot by an expert hand, probably some former member of the disbanded Green police force.

Mr. Sa'les thought that about another $10 would have to be added to charges from a mid-Saskatchewan point, and concluded that, from pres- ent prospects, there would not be much in it for the Western farmer. He thought that a beast sold at $40 some years ago brought more profit than one at $60 today.

Deputy Minister of Agriculture Grisdale said that many in the live- stock trade in Great Britain evidently believed that a big trade woqu result from Canada, following the lifting of the cattle embargo. Indeed, some seemed to think as many as a million head might be got from this country. An important point brought out was that cattle shipped from Ireland will enter Britain under much easier con- ditions than those from Canada, though, after their arrival the condi- tions are the same in both cases.

Halifax, March 11.â€"-â€"“Get ready.” Ten guns were flashed on an astonish- ed crew. Deck and rigging were splintered by a fusil‘ade of shots, and Supercargo Philip Knowles fell un- conscious from three shots fired point- blank at his face. This was the beginning of an ad- venture which befell the Yai'mouth schooner Eddie games as she lay off the Jersey coast about nine miles from Highland Light on March 2. The Eddie James was from Nassau for St. Pierre. On March 1 as she lay becalmed off the Jersey coast a large motor launch kindly consented to bring her a cask of water from an- other vessel. Accordingly next day they ran alongside and were welcomed on board. Two men went aft to the cabin, where Captain Mossher and Supercargo Knowles were. Three re- mained on deck. Sudden’ly one of the men in the cabin shouted, “Get ready.” The Captain and Knowles were in- stantly covered by ’four guns, two in the hands of\each man. The super- cargo took Warning soon enough to reach for his pistol, with the result that he was fired at. The crew were backed toward the forecastle and made to go below. The Captain was also taken there. Then they were ordered up on deck one by one, and under the muzzles of the raiders’ guns were set to unloading the Eddie’s cargo into the llaunch. The story told on the arrival of the James here to-day described the carry- ing away of Knowles, in which condi- tion his shipmates did not know, and of taking at the point of guns 600 cases of Whiskey and eight to nine hundred dollars in cash.
