MISOULA, Mont., Aug. 3.

spread into the Pend D'OreiUe
Idaho and has jumped in size
760 acres tonight. It is burning fiercely according to re
ports, and the large crews of
feet of line, though they have held one and one-half miles
previously constructed. It has been impossible to get a fire
line all , the way around the blaze.

AND IS HELD
Youth of 15 Tries to Get Fun
ny With Sergeant la from
Redding, Calif.
If Mark Twain didn't take a
turn in his grave yesterday af
ternoon then it is no fault of 15-
j ear-old Tom Moore. (No, not
the movie star).
Chief of Police Moffitt found
Tom on the street. lie had just
lelt his private car No. 131323
In the local yards of the South
ern Pacific, and was looking over
the sights of the city.
"Where you going?" asked the
chief.
"Who, me? Who wants to
know?" Tom growled out of the
corner of his mouth.
"Maybe you'd like to look over
our city hall," suggested Chief
Moffitt, bent on showing the
stranger every consideration.
"Sure. don't care if I do," re
plied th other, slouching his
shoulders forward and started
down the street with the officer.
"First let me show you through
this office here," the chief invited
and Tom entered the police sta

something wrong.
"Meet the sergeant." Chief Mof
fitt said.
"Howdy," grunted the youth.
When, asked his name the lad
replied tartly, "Mark Twain." The
sergeant couldn't be "kidded."
Well, Tom Moore, then, if
that suits you better," growled
the "hard-boiled" traveler.
Investigation of Tom's effects
brought forth a string of beads
he had "Just picked up."
The hoy, who Is being held for
investigation, said his home was
in Redding, Calif., and that he
was "travelin north."
"And take it from me, cul, I
never double back over my trail,"
he spat out of the corner of his
mouth.
The police are making efforts
to locate Tom's parents whom the
boy declares" "are all croaked."
Disarmament by European
Nations, Only Offer to
Consider, He Says
WASHINGTON, Aug. 3 As
serting that the Balfour note to
the Allied nations concerning war
debts really was intended for the
1'nited States, Senator Borah of
Idaho, republican, nitmber of the
senate foreign relations commit
tee, today sharply rtttacked sug
gestions for cancellation ot war
debts, in a statement declaring
that any debt renunciation would
have to be preceded by European
c';sarmament.
The American people "could
never be greatly interested in any
proposition for the cancellation of
any part of the debt to the United
States unless the proposition is ac
companied by a definite and spe
cific plan supported by certain
guarantees for practical disarm
ament, both by land and sea,"
Senator Borah asserted, adding
that the disarmament program of
the Washington arms conference
had been "halted and crushed."
Disarmament Chief Topic.
"Assuring for the purpose of
this statement," he said, "that
there will come a time when the
United tates will consider the
proposition of cancelling a part or
all,; of the foreign debt, take It
thait time will never come during
the program as now suggested.
There is one thing In all this dis
cussion from abroad relative to
cancelling the foreign debt which
is never mentioned and that is the
subject of disarmament.
"There is nothing to be gained
by our cancelling this debt, or any
part of it, if the gigantic military
and armament programs in Eu
rope are to continue. It would
amount in practical effect to our
aiding and abetting the building
up of these great military and
armament establishments, and
thereby abetting war. If cancel
lation is to be considered at all,
it should be considered in the in
terest of humanity, of economic
sanity.

Leading in Kansas
ST. LOUIS, Aug. 3. (Ry the
Associated Press) Every factor
that political experts base their
opinions on indicates tonight that
Senator James A. Reed has been
nominated by the Democrats ot
Missouri to be their standard bear
er5 in November to succeed him
self. '
With 622 precincts fissing out
of the 3.848 in the state. Senator
Reed was leading Breckinridge
Long of St. Louis, former third
assistant secretary of state In the
Wilson administration by 6,87'J
votes. The vote in 3.626 nrecincts
stood:
Reed 189,321; Long 182,442.
f Aung's tiane's Meaner
In order to overcome this plu
rality in the remaining precincts
it will be necessary for Mr. Long
to lead Senator Reed by almost
31 votes in each precinct. In the
last 100 precincts reported from
the iess densely populated parts
of the state, the total number ot
voters to the precinct has not
equalled 31.
Sixty of the 22 missing pre
cincts are located in St. Louis
county, outside of St. Louis city.
In the 16 precincts that already
have reported from St. Louis
county. Long had an average
lead over Reed of only three to
he precinct. In the remaining
precincts in the rural districts re
ports show that the Democratic
vote was light and Mr. Long's on
ly hope to muster enough votes
to wipe out the senator's lead
would be in a heavy vote from the
remaining country districts.
Reed's Lead Reduced
From early morning until late
afternoon the precincts that re
ported served to reduce the sen
ator's lead little by little, until
at one time it was cut to slightly
more than 6,300. In the last 50
precincts to report, however, the
senator's column took a brace. De
spite Reed's lead Brekinridge
Long tonight told the Assoiated
Press that he was still confident
of victory and that he believed the
official count which begins tomor
row was favorable to him.
Attention was direted to the
fact that several thousand na
tional guardsmen are on strike
duty away from home, and that
this probably would be a factor
in increasing the absentee vote
