WANTED IN LOUISVILLE.
Alleged Confidence Man Said to Have
Worked Scheme There.


Albert King, the alleged confidence man
under arrest here, charged with playing
the monte game and obtaining a draft for
$500 from Mr.. ]. E. Pepper Of Christians
burg. Va. is wanted at Louisville, KY, ac-
cording to information received at police
headquarters last night. Larry King,
as he is known in police circles. was photo
graphed Saturday soon after Detectives
Horn and Father arrested him, and copies
of his photograph were sent to the police
departments of several of the larger cities
One of them was sent to Superintendent
Porteous of the national bureau of idefltifi-
cation at Chicago. The message telling In
spector Boardman that King is wanted at
Louisville came from the superintendent Of
the bureau through Superintendent Joseph
Ripley of the Chicago police force "a
According to the information furnished,
King is charged in Louisville with having
worked the gold brick scheme No par
ticulars were given. Inspector Boarrlman
has notified the Louisville authorities Of the
arrest here. and has asked If they want the
prisoner forwarded to that city. So
King is in Jail awaiting a preliminary
hearing next Monday. So far as is known
he has made no effort to give bail, but It is
stated that he contemplates asking for his
release on q writ of habeas corpus It is
believed by the prosecuting officials that he
will be able to accomplish nothing in this
way, for there Is a charge against him that
he committed an offense in this tlristifc-
ton. Mr. Pepper will be summoned to ap-
pear before the grand jury to tell of the
transaction concerning the giving of the
$500 draft on the bank at Christiansburr
Some difficulty, 1t Is stated. would be en-
corntered in bringing him here to appear
in the Police Court. and for this reason he
will be summoned to appear before the
grand Jury. He objects to coming ,,nIess
his expenses are paid. and under the ar
engagements mentioned there viii be no
difficulty In getting his expense account
passed.
Should the Louisville authorities have a
strong case against the prisoner the local
police will probably surrender him to them.

GREATER SCHOOL FACILITIES.
Discussion by lexington Citizens-Ap-
POintment Of COmmi tees.

lDtscussiOn by lexington CftiZens-Ap-
pOintment OF Committees.
The need of greater school facilities in the
District of Columbia was discussed briefly
last evening at the meeting of the North
Capitol and lexington Citizens Association.
A large proportion of the youthful Grimm
ality in the District was attributed to a
failure to keep boys and girls at school dur
ing their earlier years. 1t was shown that
1T had never been possible to enforce the
compulsory education act which was passed
in 1917, because there has not been sumo .ent
school room to accommodate all the chill
dren OF school age.
The meeting was called to order by Vice
