Glaciers New Bondsmen.


Frank p. Glazier was released from
custody in Ann Arbor Thursday and
returned at once to Chelsea. Seven
men, w. F. Reimenschneider, Philip
Reimenschneider, Edward Ward, Jo-
seph Leebach, Chris. FORMER, Fred.
Kalmbach and Frank Sweetland, all
of Chelsea, were accepted by Justice
Doty and Prosecuting Attorney Fos-
ter, of Ingham county. as bondsmen
in place Of Charles Downer, Peter Cor
man, DR.. John Woods and Conrad
Haefner, who asked to be released.
These new bondsmen were accepted
upon the bonds of the two indictments
not yet tried. The matter of the bail
bonds in the case now pending in the
supreme court was dismissed and
Messrs. Woods, Downer, Haefner and
German are not released from that
bond. If these men want to be re-
leased from that bond they must make
application to Ingham county officials.
When Prosecuting Attorney Foster
was asked If he should take any steps
in the matter of the new bondsmen
being appointed in the case now pend
ing in supreme court he made it very
clear that he considered the four men
not released from that bond. however
they might feel in the matter them
selves AS to whether he should take
any steps or as to whether Judge
West would be likely to recall Glaz-
ier's bond he refused to say. He was
very busy in trying to sift and rub
down all stories afloat regarding G'az-
ier's liability to attempt to abscond.
DR.. Woods claims that he had asked
Glazier to give his bondsmen indem-
nifty bonds. securing same with real
estate of himself and wife, that Glaz-
Ter refused to do this. and that this
was one reason he had for believing
Mr. Glazier was about to realize upon
his property and skip out. Mrs. Glaz-
Ter when seen regarding this said
There Is no word of truth in the
story Neither Mr.. Glazier nor l were
asked to give such bonds. We would
have been glad to do So" Such bond
Is understood to have been given to
secure these new bondsmen.

rumors were spread broadcast that
Mr. Hartman was about to be operat-

strengthened by the arrival here of
two oxygen tanks and a collapsiblc

move patients between wards.
Coincident with the arrival of these
requisites to an operation, came two
men from New York. one of them

Cording to reports he was summoned

who has been Mr.. Harriman's ply
sician throughout his illness.
No confirmation Of the report that
there was to be an operation ON Tower
Hin could be had. on the other hand
those who spoke Of Mr.. Hartman to-
day were inclined toward optimism.
