professionalism against him who won so MANY
races for Columbia, and later National and

had heard OF the charges made against Long but
that he did not believe they would amount to any
thing. OF course he added If Long is charged
with professionalism in the regular way then the

CASE AGAINST MRS. FORD
viii be Dismissed and Trouble Ami
cablN Settled.

There has been a great deal of inquiry
in the last few days regarding the case
against Mrs. Byrd Shultz-Ford OF Wich-
tia which was recently mentioned in the
dispatches from Washington and which
was noted IN The Eagles local columns
Deputy Marshal Trikk could not be
found at the time the story was printed
in The Eagle, but the Eagle made the
prediction at the time that the trouble
probably grew out Of a srudge or was
some MISUNDERSTANDING As soon as Mr..
TriEg arrived in Wichita from Salina a
reporter FOR the Eagle saw him and ask
cd him 70 make a statement Cf the case.
The matter is unlmportant." said Mr..
Trigg. The Eagle was right IN the as
sumption that the case was not serious
and I am advised that everything VIII he
settled and the matter dismissed The
warrant was served on Mrs. Fond nearly
q month ago. and she was given ample
time to set her affairs in shape before
going to Washington. Her trip a Wash
ing ton in care Of Marshal Sterae and
wife was "a matter Of he- own choice 10
save expenses. She could have given
bond and some back 20 Washington alone
and settled the matter. but It was less
expensive to go with an officer. There
IS a chance that the charges brought are
mere persecution. and those who know
Mrs Ford are inclined 10 this view: bu:
in any event it IS only a disagreement
such as rises every Jay out OF financial
transactions. The matter will be fully
settled and the case dismissed"
The story as told in washington dis
patches is that MIS-. Ford obtained 500
from Mrs Mary \. Kyle unde- p-ete7se

con Of Georgia This occurred while Mrs.
Ford was living in Washington city with
her father. Rev. Shultz two years ara.
