St. Louis. Mo., Jan. 12.—(A. P.)
—More than $80,000,000 in gold,
silver and currency was hauled
through the street« of St. Louts
without the loss of a cent, while
crime here was at its peak last month
It Is announced at the federal build-

Daily for nearly a month millions
of dollars were carried 15 blocks to
the Union Station, as much as 35.-
000,000 being in a single trip.
Three men, with arms concealed,
guarded each vehicle, and unbroken
secrecy was mlantained.
The money was being sent to the
mints at 'Denver and San Francisco
from the United States swbtreasury
which was suspended by act of con­
gress last May.
Chicago. Jan. 12.—(A. P.)—In its
fifth year Chicago’s forest preserve,
encircling the city In a great outer
park belt, numbers 18,038 acres and
costs $7,220,000, Peter Reinberg.
president of the district, reports. In
1920 the preserve entertained over
3,000,000 people.
The park already includes more
than half of the 30,000 acres avail­
able wooded land behind Chicago
and neiv tracts are continually being
added.
Indian (Day held in the preserve
last year, commemorating tribes that
once lived In these same wooded
lands, proved so successful that it
will be made an annual event. Des­
cendents of these tribes were brought
back for the affair.
Shanghai. Jan. 12.—(A. P.)—«Af­
ter the looting and burning of tho
important Yangtsze river port of
Ichang by mutinous Chinese soldiers,
the arrival of British, American,
French and Japanese gunboats has
brought an end to the outbreak. The
insubordinate soldiers held undis­
puted possession of the city, which
numbers upward of 40,000 people,
for more than five days.
For three days after the outbreak
telegraph service was down the
Yangtsze was seriously Interrupted.
Messages that later found their way
down the thousand milee of river to
the coaat carried the information
that about 60 Chinese had been i
killed in the insurrection and that it
was ended only when the Chinese
Chamber of Commerce of Ichang had
agreed to pay $100,000 to * Chinese
officer commanding the mutinous
troops.
It was stated that the outbreak
developed because the troops had
not been paid tor six months.
Reports are that Japanese were
the principal sufferers among the
foreign population, which numbered
upwards of 100 persons. Offices of
the Robert Dollar Company, which
operates a line of river steamers up
the Yangtsze, were among the other
foreign establishments looted, »>
cording to reports of the company*«
agent. The Standard OH Company’«
office in the same building was not
damaged.
It Is understood that, probably to
avoid international complication«,
forces were not landed from the gun­
boats. when it was found that foreign
lives were not tn danger and no fur­
ther damage to foreign property was
