For Clean Collar

Deputy United States Marshal Small
ley came here from ST Paul last even
ing to arrest d. j.. Kennedy, for many
years an employe in the postoffice here,
and during the past year assistant
postmaster, who is suspected of having
done considerable crooked work in the
money order department. Kennedy
was found at the Central house. and
was placed under arrest, and all sat
down to supper. After supper Ken
nedy said he wanted to put on a clean
collar, and the marshal permitted him
to go up stairs, but Kennedy skipped.
and up to last accounts had not been
recaptured. Postmaster Booren sus-
pected that Kennedy was not doing
business on the square, and about
month ago discharged him and put
w. H. Fellows in his place in the
money order department. Fellows has
since that time been busy gathering up
evidence, and, if all reports are true.
| Kennedy's affairs are certainly in a
very bad condition, particularly the
foreign money-order business. Ad-
vices have been received here and paid.
but not to the right payee and many
have sent money to Europe who have
never heard from their remittances

suspected that Kennedy skipped over
into Wisconsin. Kennedy is a young
man who has stood well in Saltwater

model until he became addicted to
gambling year or two ago. His ar
rest caused considerable surprise, and
many refuse to believe his guilt but
his taking French leave has turned
them against him.
