HULLSTORY AHOAx
Brother Hall of Port Byron
Globe Shows Up His City
Contemporaries.
NO BANK THERE is WORKED
Man arrested This Week at Dayton,
Ohio, Never Heard of in the
Village.

Brother Hall of the Port Byron Globe
takes a fall out of the newspapers for
saying that one of the banks OF MS
town had been bunkoed by one Perry
Hull. Hull, according to dispatch re-
ceived by The Argus and other news
papers in the tri-cities was arrested
this week at Dayton. Ohio. and, ac-
cording TO the officers there wds suppcs-
ed to be a man wanted for fleeing one
of the Port Byron banks through pass
ing a forged check. The Argus took
the story sent out from Dayton at its
face value, and printed it as such, and
now it stands corrected; and returns
its thanks to Brother Hall for his get
ting at the truth of the matter. Here
is what he says in the issue of the
Globe this week:
"Tri-city papers have this. week pub
fshed articles to the effect that one
Perry Hull had been arrested at Day
ton, Ohio, for working bank in oP It
Byron for several hundred dollars, the
Rock Island Union even going so far
as to give, under a Port Byron date
line, information supposed to have
been secured here representing the
amount to have been about $225, and
the bank that suffered the Toss, being
E. E. Rogers & Son.
what Bankers Say.
1.-The Globe editor called on this bank
and it's cashier, r. NJ Rogers. Stated
that they knew nothing OF such a trans
action, that they have not depositor
whom they do not personally know,
and never had one by this name on
their books. We are also informed
that the Port Byron State bank has
not lost one penny in such a transac-
ton. In short, the whole story is
groundless as far as the banks here
are concerned. 1t would seem to be
only fair for the papers who have pub
lished this story without taking trou-
BILE to verify it, should also be willing
to print true statement of the matter
which is given here"

CRANE TO SAIL FOR
NEW POST OCT. 20
Statement Ends Controversy Involv-
ing New Minister to China-Wi1
Keep Eye on Japan.

Washington, d. c., Oct. S.-The
facts that Mr.. Crane, minister to
China, had a conference at San Fran
cisco with President Taft, and that
Immediately thereafter Mr.. Crane an
nounced that he expected to sail for
China Oct 20, dispose of the the
cries that Mr.. Crane is to be hauled
over the Goals by Secretary Knox for
some jocular remarks made before
the Asiatic association in New York.
1t is not believed here that Secre-
tary Knox would have resorted to the
heroic remedy of hating Crane in
the act of boarding ship for the spec
tacular purpose of bringing him here
to be catechised and chastised with
Nil. Crane and his official creator,
President Taft, in close converse in
San Francisco.
Acting solely on the report that
the things Mr.. Crane said were Of
fensive to China as we'll as to the
state department when he said that
China was held up" the rumor was
that China had already protested
against Minister Crane. This report,
however. could not be verified. Mr..
Cranes announcement at least fatty
cuntradicted the rumOr.
