BOGUS COUNT WANTED IN
SEVERAL OTHER CITIES
Adventurer Who Welded and De-
serted Salt Lake Girl Can't Be
Brought Back Here.

Count Won Bergheimer, the adventurer.
who, with the glamor of his supposed IT,
tie and fine manners. induced pretty Miss
Peterson OF Sugar ward to marry him
and then deserted her in Omaha, has been
captured in Baltimore according to infor-
nation received by the police yesterday.
In Baltimore the count no-longer clings to
his title. On the prison register he has
enrolled himself as plain Mr.. o. f. era
mcr.
When Miss Peterson married Count Won
Bergheimer two months ago he painted
a rosy picture of their future idyllic life
He told of a wedding trip that would ex-
tend through Europe and end at his an
cestral estates in Germany. His pretty
bride was to meet the imperial family and
bask In the smiles of the great and titled
in exclusive court circles
But establishment was to come swiftly
to the trusting girl. At Omaha the sup
posed count basely deserted her and she
was forced to return 20 her friends here,
bitterly Inundated and deceived
. Chief Mckenzie had notified County At
torney Willard Hanson of the arrest of
the bogus count and arrangements were
under way to have the man brought back
to Salt Lake when a later message was
received from Baltimore stating that era
mer, alias Count Won Bergheimer was
wanted in st. Louis and Washington and
that both of these cities had claims upon
the prisoner which would take precedence
to the Salt Lake proceedings. This mes
sage makes IL improbable that any effort
will be made at this time to have the
man brought here for trial.

THE SALT LAKE HERALD: WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 81 1907
BURGLAR IS POORLY PAID
Raises Ladder, Prizes Open Window
and Gets So From Pocket of
Horsley's Trousers.

Climbing through window, a burglar
early yesterday morning entered the bed
room of David w. Horsley, above the
Sixteenth Ward grocery and meat mar
ket. COP West North Temple street. and
stole IS from one of the pockets of Mr..
Horsley's trousers.
For this meagre reward the burglar
went to a great deal of trouble First
placing a ladder against the side of the
building, he assembled and pried open the
bedroom window. All this was done SO
quietly that the sleeper was not awak-
ened.
1t was not untI' Mr.. Horsley commenced
to dress yesterday morning that he dis
covered his loss. In looking for his
trousers, he found them lying upon the
floor close to the window. Then, exam
lining the pockets, he found that his mon
ey was gone.
Mr. HorsIey at once notified the police.

WILL TEST ORDINANCE.
License on Teams Not to Liking of
Those Affected.

The validity of the ordinance compelling
team owners to pay s. annual license for
each team, is TO be determined by Judge
Armstrong of the district court. EnOch
Smith is the man who is raising the point,
and yesterday Benner X. Smith. his attor-
ney, made a long argument on the legal
phase of the question. 1t appears that
Smith has four teams, for which the city
has asked him to pay $50 in licenses. This
he refused TO do and the test case is d
result.
1t is claimed by Smith that he is en-
gagged in a general hauling business and,
although technically a common carrier, is
not one, in fact. and should not be made
to come under the provisions of the state
law which allows a city to impose a tax
on common carrier such as expressmen.
The city contends that the ordinance
should apply to all teams, and that the
intention OF the legislature was to make
it so when it passed the bill giving cities
this taxing power. The case was submit
ted.

TRUE BILLS RETURNED.
Well Known lumberman Indicted b!
Federal Grand Jury.

Minneapolis, Oct. S.-As a result of its
Investigation of the so-called little black
book" the federal grand jury today re-
turned nineteen indictments against well
known lumbermen and officers of the
Northwestern Lumbermen's association,
charging conspiracy to defraud by the
use of the mails.
The black book plan was pursued by the
lumbermen and other opponents of mail
order houses, and provided simply that
the victims of the device were to be made
to answer futile correspondence and send
out innumerable catalogues, all with no
result in trade.

Did Not Really Dissolve.

Mr.. Kellogg says he is of the opinion
that, notwithstanding that the government
was unable to discover the transfer books
and stock ledgers of the liquidating trus-
tees, the evidence adduced today shows
that the so-called OIL trust only affected
TO dissolve under the order of the Ohio
courts in 1892, and that it's direction is still
held by those who had to do with the for
nation OF the Standard Oil trust.
Statements submitted today showed In
brief that at the inception Of the Standard
Oil trust in 1852 there was $40. 100000 In
trust certificates issued for stocks in va
rious companies which entered into the
combine. In the trust period from 1882 TO
1892 a stock dividend of $l5.0O0,O00 was de-
clared and this, with other stocks issued
for plant purchases. brought the total
Capitalization of the Standard up TO S97,
10000 As a result of decision of the
supreme court of Ohio fOrbiddtng the
trustees from voting the trust certificates
a resolution was passed directing that the
trust be dissolved.
