DOG And A FLOURISH.
The Combination Leads to the Arrest
of j. p. Thomas.

st. Louis. Mo-. Nov. flames P.
Thomas. son of a wealthy manufac-
turer of Lay City, Mich, who was
locked up at police headquarters here
today on a charge of swind1ing, owes
his undoing to a poodle dog and a
pen flourish. The dog carried by. Mrs.
Bess Chatf1eld. of Seattle. Wash, en-
abled the clerk of a local hotel to
trace Thomas and the woman to Kan
sas City. The flourish made by
Thomas on a Kansas City hotel
register, led to his arrest.
Thomas came TO the Southern hotel
woman. He became friendly with
James Osborne. q clerk. and a few
days later. Osborne cashed Thomas's
check for $100. - Before it came back
protested. the couple had left.
Osborne. traced the couple to East
st. Louis. ILL.,, and from there to Kan
sas City by making inquiries about
the poodle. At the latter city he
could find no trace of the dog, but a
peculiar flourish with which Thomas
ended his registration on hotel
registers gave the final clew at the
Gladstone hotel.
Thomas and Mrs Chatfield were
taken to police headquarters and were
photographed in Kansas City Then
the woman was released and her COM
panion brought back to ST. Louis.
Thoma asserts he did not know that
his balance at the Bay City bank on
which the charge was drawn, was ex-
hausted warrant charging him
with obtaining money by false pre-
lenses, was issued against him today.

TO BREAK UP GRAFT.
Government Is After Importers Who
Abuse Their Privileges.

Washington. Nov. 2.-"Break UP the
importers graft is the slogan of the
treasury department and its custom
collectors just now and the acting sec
rotary today contributed another chap
ter in the governments fight against
the abuses of the privileges of allow
ance for decay while fruit is being
Geld subject to entry.
Investigation has shown that the
rules governing the allowances are be-
ing tritied with and that the importers
in many cases leave the fruit at the
government docks until they are ready
70 deliver it, then enter it with a claim
ior allowance for decay, but sell the
same goods regardless of the govern
ment's allowance for Impairment of
the goods.
Collector Loeb is advised in today's
instructions that where no entry. is
made by the importer for perishab1e
fruit such as lemons, etc, within Is
hours after the entry of the vessel,
such fruit should be treated as UNI
Claimed, and not being entitled to
warehouse privileges under the law,
should be sold forthwith on giving
public notice for three days.

He paid Marshal Davis his obligation
alre xr0StardQX

with thanks yesterday.
The voucher of Davis, however,
which was handed the commissioners
claiming the $50 reward which they
lad offered in addition occasioned
small controversy. Auditor J. E. Lar1-
mer could not find any lawful pro-
vision for the payment of such reward
from the county treasury and turned
the matter over to the county attorney.
It is the county attorneys opinion
that the reward can not lawfully be
paid until, a conviction is secured. In
the law covering reward offered by a
governor that is not a necessity. At any
rate it is merely a delay for there is
no possible escaping a conviction for
breaking Jail and maulirg Under Sher-
IF Henry Bayliss.

their efforts to raise the additional
amount needed to secure a total OF
$4,000 within Two weeks which will

day which it is expected will show in
creased interest as the campaign ad-
vances Already approximately SIS, 900
have been raised which leaves a total
of $50, 900 yet to be secured by the
|campaigners.
For % years this organization has
sought to meet the spiritual physical
social, and intellectual needs OF the
young women of Topeka, 1t is urged
and that with number of other thlngs
answers the reason why the Y. w.

of the citizens here.

quate rooms must be prepared 10 carry
on the work which has been started
one month ago there were exactly Sol
members About 5000 women use the
rooms every month. and the assocla-

results.

z The sentiment in favor of the salary
raise is apparently without opposition
The men who circulated the petitions
say that not one man in the four hun
dred resented the proposition and sew
eral of them offered to use all of their
influence in the campaign.
The requirements of a fireman on the
Topeka force are especially heavy A
man must have a fair education, he
must be sound physically, he must have
a certain physical makeup, he must
have nerve and energy, and go through
large number of examinations which
cover a wide field of normal knowledge.
A look at the roll of f1remen in the
employ of the city 1t will be seen that
almost four-f1fths of the men are mar
ried. They have families. With no
prospects for a raise in salary and the
increased cost of living 1t has been
found that position with the fire de-
partment did not pay and designations
have followed close upon each other.
The fire department demands good
men and they have them at the pres
ent time. The proposition to keep them
is the question at this time And they
cannot be retained at the present wage
scale With such list of property
owners staring them in the face it
looks as though the city council would
be acting in a criminal manner to turn
down the petition
