NEW YORK, Nov. 20.-Consuisr and de-
tective agencies of Europe are endeavoring
to discover the whereabouts OF Frederick
C. Johnson. son of Colonel Edmond John
son. a wealthy ciziten of Vineland, N. j.,
who disappeared three months ago.

the University of Pennsylvania and after
finishing his studies there had taken a
course at the Darmstadt university.
On September l he started from Bonn
for Vineland. That was the last his rela-
tives ever saw of him. Upon receiving
no news of his arrival in the United States
the princess made inquiries of the steam
ship company and learned that he had
engaged passage at Antwerp. but that the
steamship sailed without him. His baggage
was found still unpacked and untouched
at Antwerp.
Although the search has been prosecuted
vigorously, no further trace OF him has

RICHARDS RESIGNS A FEDERAL JOE

Deputy United States Marshal Richards,
an old-time officer in the employ Of the
government. has rendered his resignation
to Marshal Christian and is awaiting the
appointment OF his successor. Deputy
Richards in rendering his resignation does
so because the fees Of the office have dwin-
died down so he can no longer make a liv-
ing by serving Uncle Sam as a deputy mar
shall in the southern district Of Iowa.
Since Judge Smith McPherson's orders
relative to the arrest OF b%ootleggers went
deputy marshals in this district have been
almost wiped out. At the same time their
duties have correspondingly decreased, but
while holding the ONCE Of deputy they are
prevented from earning a livelihood in any
other manner. For several years the dep
uty United States marshals have agitated
the question Of being placed on a salary
and made Independent Of the fee system.
but so far the agitation has failed Of it's
purpose.
Under the present system the deputy
marshals in this district complain that
their expenses are greater than the fees
they receive and that instead of earning
money they are actually paying for the
privilege Of working for the government.
Since the removal OF the marshal's office
to Des Moines the business in the federal
court in this city has been almost at a
standstill and what were known as the
"bootleggers' conventions at each term
OF court are now things of the past.

ATTORNEYS CHALLENGE JURY
Asserts Law Regarding DRAWING NJ
the Same Has Not Been COM
piled with.

Attorneys practicing In the district court
nave from time to time made COMPLAINT
that the law relating to the drawing of
jurtes has not been strictly complied with
and yesterday the attorneys for Carl Herr
the defendant in an action in which W. ].
christensen appears as p~laintif. filed a
written challenge to the three special VEN
Tres drawn this week. As Clerk Reed Of the
district court vas at Avooa the hearing
on the challenge had to be postponed un-
I'll this morning and in the meantime Judge
Green discharged the talesmen summoned
and continued the case until such time as
the hearing on the challenge is disposed
OF.
The attorneys filing the challenge aIlege
that the officers required by law to be pres
ent at the drawing of the jurors were in
fact not In attendance at the time the
drawing was made to complete the panel.
They further allege that the ballots on
which the names of the Jurors are placed
we're not In the form required by law
and that they were not concealed but were
open so that the person drawing them
had a full and complete view of the name
and also allege that the boxes containing
the ballots were not properly sealed and
charge other minor Irregularities.
The law requires that the regular panel
for the district and superior courts shall
be drawn at specified periods by the clerk
OF the district court. the county recorder
and the county auditor. The same officers
are required to draw special venIres but
talesmen are drawn by the clerk Of the
district court or one of his deputies,
such drawing required to be made in the
presence OF the court.
The rules regarding the drawing of juries
In the district court, Judge Green said yes
terday afternoon. had undoubtedly not been
strictly enforced but that this was the
first time complaint had been made Of the
Irregularities. The necessity for summon
ing talesmen to help out the regular panel
frequently arises during a term of court
when one OF more juries may be out at
the same time, as happened Wednesday.
The rule requiring the drawing Of tales
men in the presence OF the court has, II
is admitted, rarely been followed, the
drawing generally having been made in the
office Of the clerk, more as a matter OF
convenience than with any intent to evade
the provisions Of the law.
In the case in which the challenge to
the jury was filed the plaintiff w. ]. Chris
tainsen sues Carl Herr. a tailor. for $1,000
damages for alleged unlawful arrest Hers
shop was robbed and Christainsen was ar
rested on suspicion Of being implicated in
the robbery. Twenty-Five extra talesmen
were drawn last evening in the presence
of Judge Green in order that a jury might
be secured TO try the case which is the

Alexander was formerly a hardware mer-
chant at Pickering, a small town in this
county, and is a member Of one OF the

and evidently would have been brought to
Maryville and shipped out to market on
