Y ANT TO GAIN
THEIR RELEASE
Bunko Men Will Try to In

DISCOVER A E0OPHOLE
Question Is Raised Whether
Proctor and Ashberry Have
Been Properly Charged
DISCOVER A LOOPHOLE
Oakland Office San Francisco Call.

Oakland Office San Francisco Call,
1016 Broadway. Feb. 2.
An effort to gain the release Of Will
liam Proctor and Roy Ashberry,
charged with bunkoing aged Mrs.
Emeline Tyson of Niles out of s1OS in
cash and some diamond rings, is to be
made to- morrow, when the men will be
brought into court upon writ of ha-
beas corpus. They will seek to show
that Justice of the Peace Sandholdt
did not have sufficient legal evidence
upon which to hold them.
Proctor's forte is to make love to old
widows and after gaining their conf
dence borrows their money and takes
their jewelry in almost any way he can
devise. He borrowed sos from Mrs Ty-
son in order to complete the transfer
to him of a house he was to purchase
for them to live in. The rings he took
from her for the purpose of having the
stones set into a wedding present. Be
tween the charge of grand larceny and
that of obtaining money under false
pretenses the line is shadowy and there
is considerable doubt whether the prop
er legal charge has been placed against

THE COAL MINES
PruSSian Government Takes
Step That Shows 1t Will
Endeavor to End Strike

BERLIN, Feb. 2.-The Prussian Gov
ernment has inquired of the group Of
financial interests represented by the
Dresdener Bank and the Bank for
Business and Industry if 1t would be
difficult to raise loans sufficient to take
over the coal mines both of the Rhen-
ish- Westphalian and Silesian regions,
should the Government desire to con-
slider project. This inquiry was sub
mitted TO a meeting of bankers last
week as basis for discussion. The
sum of $25O.000,0OO was named as a
rough estimate of the cost.
The bankers judgment was that any
Government requirement could easily
be obtained. The Government, it was
pointed out, had no difficulty in bor-
rowing four times as much with which
to nationalize the railways. In that
transaction the Government borrowed
at per cent, afterward converting the
transaction into a 3k per cent loan,
and it had besides the interest and al
lotments of the sinking fund, which
made fine yearly profit, amounting
in the last fiscal year to s42, SOC, 900.
The Ministry of Commerce express
ly limited its communicate to the
bankers to the mere question of the
possibility of raising the amount Of
money needed. The Government SEEM
ingly has two objects in view-first, to
learn if the naturalization of the
mines is really feasible, and, second, to
show the mine owners what might
happen if the coal strike is not set
tied, namely, that the Government has
means in reserve whereby IT could take
the whole controversy out of the hands
OF both the owners and workmen.
Chancellor Won Bulow and Herr
MoeIler, Minister of Commerce and In
dustry, announced in the Prussian Diet
during the recent liberia mine dis
cussions that the Government had no
intention of taking over all the coal
mines, but since then the situation has
changed and the Government seeming
ly is prepared for what is yet only a
somewhat distant contingency.

Senator Lukens
Yes" replied Herr
Then if you examined all the books,
including the minute book. and the
donations shown on the minutes did
not appear in the receipts admitted by
McKowen, how did you overlook the
discrepancy"
Herr replied that MIR. Halliday, when
alive, had told him not to pay atten-
ton to donations-that he (Halliday)
would look after them and see that
everything was all right.
Herr admitted that his last examina-
ton of MeKowen's books. before the
defalcation was discovered was made
about nine months before the secre-
tary's confession of guilt. He declared
that no blame could be attached to him
for such infrequent examinations as
the books were not posted and hence
could not be audited.
The committee adjourned at O'Clock
to continue its work in the same room
at 10:50 o'clock tomorrow morning.

STEALS NOT ENTERED.

Chairman Carter sustained Selvage's
point and Herr then told with much
technical detail why McKowen's books
could not have shown to any auditor
tnat stealing was being done. The
substance Of his theory was that Me-
Kowen stole moneys which he never
put In any book, and so the stealing
could not be detected by an auditor.
The peculations were of funds paifl
him by Dr. d'Ancona of the Affiliated
Colleges in San Francisco and Of do
nations given into his keeping by those
who made the donations.
AT the conclusion of his explanation
Senator Lukens asked Herr If he con-
sidered his audit an adequate one. and
