DEPUTY WARDEN LEMON SUED.
Former Guard at Federal Prison Asks
$4,000 Damages.

Leavenworth, Kan. June 30
Kansas City attorneys representing
Peter L. Zickgraf a discharged fed
eral prison guard, filed a suit in the
district court here praying for $4,000
damages against F. H. Lemon, deputy
warden of the federal prison. Frank
NJ. Lowe, Charles Shannon and E. F.
Wells are the attorneys for the ex-
guard.
In the petition it is alleged that
about April 1 Zickgraf filed charges
with the department of justice
against Mr.. Lemon, charging him
with acts of immortality. The petition
then charges that Mr.. Lemon went to
Washington and filed counter charges
against Zickgraf and caused his dis
missa1 without an investigation of
either set of charges. For this he
asks $4,000 actual damages and
$4,000 punitive damages.
Zickgraf first circulated the stories
against the deputy warden in the
early part of 1909 and Mr.. Lemon
promptly demanded an investigation.
| r. v. Ladow, superintendent of pris-
| ons and prisoners, was sent from the
department of justice and conducted
a secret investigation.
