Fine Tooth Comb to Locate

Where is Miss Pamela Devere Logue?
Kansas City. st. Louis, Baltimore,
New York, Pittsburg, Chicago. Mil
waukee, Minneapolis and San Fra ncisco
all have been asked. but as yet her
whereabouts is veiled in mystery.
It appears that Leon Eingstrom, who
represents the Pennsylvania railroad
lines at Salt Lake City. met Miss Pa
nola Devere Logue in the city of the
Latter Day Saints and she told him she
was the assistant national representa-
tive Of Josephs home at Kansas City.
When asked what was her object in
life-Eingstrom is a serious minded
man-she told him that she hunted the
country over TO give shelter to and
look after "husbandless wives" and
'motherless children" and presented
him with a postal card on which was
her name and title and on the left hand
corner was g picture of smiling group
of "husbandless wives" and ''motherless
children"
Eingstrom wrote to the Pennsylvania
representative, c. E. Clapp, at Kansas
City for information about Miss Pamela
Devere Logue. Clapp in turn wrote a
letter stating his inability to locate the
lady and sent the correspondence to
St Louis.
The Pennsylvania representative in
St Louis said he hunted for Miss Pa
nola without success, but thought she
might be in Baltimore.
Baltimore sent the letter to New
York and the New York man said they
were on the wrong tack.
The only place" he wrote, where
Miss Pamela could be, where there was
ample work for her to do, must be in
San Francisco, and 1 suggest you try
some Of the newly opened resorts in
that enterprising city"
However, he sent on the correspond
ence TO Pittsburg, which sent it to Chi
cago. The Chicago man said he had
spent a week on the coast, and was
positive that If Miss Pamela Devere
Logue ever got as far as Salt Lake she
must have gone on TO San Francisco, as
there was good field for missionary
work of this kind on the coast.
he sent the correspondence to Min
neapolis and Minneapolis sent it TO Mil
waukee.
Finally the letters got back to Eing-
strom and he sent them to z. NJ. Pome-
roy, who attends to the freight inter
ests Of the Pennsylvania in this city.

able to locate Miss Pamela Devere

The first course was on the table

BY a ruling made by Judge Murasky
yesterday in the trial of A. S. New
burgh, the former Ruef attorney, four
talesmen who were temporarily passed
Wednesday were excused from duty
yesterday, 1T having appeared that the
quartet of veniremen had seen service
In department II of the superior court
on a regular jury panel. The dismissals
came about after an argument on a
point of law, concerning the eligibility
Of veniremen who had served in other
courts during the year. Thus was all
of the previous two days work de-
molished.
Two more veniremen were tempo
rarily passed yesterday and are sub
ject to peremptory challenges.
Morris Solomon, a retired junk deal
er living al 221S Geary street, made a
sorry spectacle as venireman during
his examinatio and was so confused
in the midst of District Attorney Lang
dons rapid fire that Attorney sSchlesin-
ger arose, after having denied the
challenge interposed by the prosecu-
tion, and pleaded for Solomon's dis
missal rather than have him plunge
into deeper confusion.
At the outset Solomon said that he
believed Newburgh guilty, yet he de-
sired to remain on the jury. The de-
fense attorneys, mindful of this ex-
preston Of an opinion of their clients
guilt, did not challenge the venireman
but were somewhat insistent that he
remain upon the jury.
In the course of eXamins ton his an
swers at times approached the ridicu-
lous. He expressed the opinion that
Heney had no right to expose Morris
Haas, and that Heney would not dare
TO do 1t again He did not assert that
it was much wiser to have an ex-
convict off such an important jury
rather than permit him to take part In
its deliberations. Solomon denied that
he had ever prejudged Ruefs innocence
or the innocence Of Newburgh, but the
prosecution was prepared to produce
witnesses who would have testified &c
certain statements made by the venire-
man, but for the rescue performed by
Schlesinger.
J. H. Rave, a grocer. was excused
because he entertained an opinion
which would require abundant evil
dence to eradicate. That opinion, he
asserted, was against Newburgh.
Il can not believe that Newburgh
is innocent" declared the venireman.
During the three days that the New
burgh trial has been under way it has
developed that the majority of jurors
place much credence in the testimony
that might be given by E. A. S. Blake
declaring that although he is a con-
vict, men engaged in the crime OF
jury fixing do not hire gentlemen to
perform their nefarious work.

SUIT FOR SHORTAGE
ON BANT[L'S BOND
Former City Treasurer and In
demnity Company Asked to
Make Good Deficiency
Shortage of S66,50O Attributed
to False Entries and Fraud
nlent Manipulation

Charles A. Bantel. city treasurer
from January s, 1906. to January s.
1908, and his surety, the Aetna in
demnity company, were sued by the
city yesterday for sS6.5OO. This sum
covers all the shortages during Ban
tells term Of Office that have been dis
covered since John McDougald took Of
fee a year ago. The total is made
up as follows: $46.5OO. taken from the
county clerks special deposit fund Gin
cluding the s37, stats OF United Rail-
road taxes deposited pending determin-
alton of suit); $4,000 taken from the
public administrator special deposit
fund; $4,000 from the absent heirs spe-
cial deposit fund, and $4,000 from the
police court bail money special deposit
fund. No part of the shortage repre-
sented public funds. 1t was all money
of which the city treasurer was Gus
todian.
COMPLAINT ALLEGES FRAUD
The only official so far accused of
tions is James c. Tomalty, who is under
indictment on charge of altering pub
lie records. In bringing suit against
Bantel no criminal accusation is made
against the eX-treasurer.
The position taken by u.s. said City
Attorney Percy V. Long, in whose Of
nee the complaint was prepared, rs
that there should have been a certain
amount in the treasury when Bantel
Pgave way to McDouga1d- The reports
OF the experts, Lester, Herrick & Her
rick, show that the money was not
there. Therefore we sue Bantel and his
surety.
The experts say in their reports
that the funds we're depleted by false
entries and fraudulent manipulation.
But the criminal end of the matter is
the province of the district attorney. /
have every confidence in the report of
the experts. They have a national rep
utation for thoroughness and accuracy"
ACTION BASED UPON BOND
Long said that the investigation of
the experts covered only q limited
period, and for all he could say q fuller
examination might divuIge further
shortages. The amount for which the
Aetna indemnity company is on BanteFs
bond is 100000. The city asks for
judgment against both Bantel and the
surety company If Judgment is Sc
cured the money will be collected from
the company, who will then have TO
turn to Bantel for redress.
The language of the complaint with
regard to the shortage Is that Bantel
did not pay the money TO any one who
had the legal and lawful right to re-
ceive it, but that IL was 'unlawfully,
improperly and illegally taken from the
treasury without warrant of law" The
complaint is verified by the signature
of Mayor Edward r. Taylor.

West Trial Transferred

The case of John J. West, an attor-
ney and one of Ruefs henchmen.
charged with attempting to corruptly
influence a juror to vote for the ac-
quittaI Of the boodler, has been trans
ferred from Judge Murasky's court TO
that of Judge Cabaniss. Heretofore no
cases growing out of the graft prosecu-
tion have been assigned to department
II, Judge Carroll Cook having disqual-
ifed himself from presiding at such
trials by freely expressing an opinion
antagonistic to the prosecution. With
the substitution of Judge Cabaniss for
Cook. however, department II will take
its place with and IL, presided over
by Judges Dunno and Lawlor, and be
used for the trial OF all classes of Grim
inals-jury fiXers and bribe givers, as
well as thugs and murderers.
The case of West was, in the first
place. assigned to Judge Murasky be-
cause of the crowded state of the cal
endars. Now that the three regular
criminal departments are presided over
by judges qualified TO try all descrip-
tions of law breakers, it is understood
that Judge Murasky viii resume civil
trials exclusively as soon as the New
burgh case is finished.
The arraignment of West was con
tinued by Judge Cabaniss to January
a.
