BANKER ZARUBA
Stranger Giving Name Of Joe
Martin Tries to Effort Money
From Local Foreign Banker.
HIS LIFE is THREATENED.
Is First Given but Three Months
to Live and Next But One
Day-Martin is in Jail.

. =
Nov your days are numbered; you
have only until tomorrow to live"
4 Thus said q large. strange man of
heavy build in strong and determined
voice to Charles +. Zaruba, foreign
banker, as the latter started to call
policemen to arrest the man for at
tempting to extort money from him
by Black Hand methods in the "a
rnba foreign exchange bank on Pike
street Wednesday evening. The man,
apparently of foreign birth, slowly
walked up the street but was soon
captured by two policemen who took
him to the city lookup.
The stranger went into the banking
room only few minutes before the
policemen were summoned. Walking
up to Mr.. Zaruba he said:
you've got q lot of money in here.
] know the inside of your business
all the way through and know that
you get money pretty easy. ! want
some now because need 1t and UNI
less you give it to me your days are
limited"
"Well, I haven't any money for
you,' replied Mr.. Zaruba, and I
haven't time to waste with you when
you talk that way.
''Unless you give me some money
now. your days are limited to three
months"
wait until I get to you and your
days aound here will be limited" re-
piled Mr.. Zaruba. becoming angered.
as he started around the counter to-
ward the man. When he got to him,
the stranger, who did not bulge, said:
We'll mean what say. / am
going to stay right here until I get
the money"
Mr.. Zaruba started across the
street and called two policemen who
were standing on the opposite side
walk. The stranger then limited Mr..
zaruho's life to but one day rs
related in the foregoing, and walked
up the street toward the Senate sa-
loon. The officers went after him.
followed him through the place and
took him into custody.
AT the police station the man said
his name was Joe Martin. Several
cards bearing different names were
found in his pockets and that is not
believed to be his right name. In his
conversation with Mr.. Zaruba the
strangers said he could speak twonty-
five different languages, but he spoke
then in good English only.
Ate the man had been taken to
the lookup NJ. Zauba went before
Magistrate G. Harry Gordon and
swore out warrant against the
would7be eXtorter, charging him with
threatening to do the complainant
bodily harm for the purpose of ex-
torting money.
The warrant was served on the
prisoner and he was transferred from
the lookup Mr.. zaruba went before
he awaits Il hearing which will prob
ably take place Friday.
