CONTRIBUTED TO THE
DELINQUENCY OF
YOUNG GIRLS

Six months in the county Jail was
the punishment melted out yester-
day afternoon by Justice Mann of
the police court to Clyde Fugate,
aged II, when arraigned on a
charge of contributing to the delin-
quency of two young girls. Fugate
was telegraph operator for the
Northern Pacific at VIM, few
miles southwest OF Spokane. He
was arrested about 10 days ago
with Ray Sinclair, aged 20, also a
telegraph operator, at Marshall
Junction.
Sinclair is already serving out a
fine of $500 in the county jail, hav-
ing admitted that he and Fugate
had kept the girls with them for
two days. Fugate made light of
the case and laughed much of the
time while being tried.

WHILE GROSSCUP SAILS THE
NILE THERE is A FINE
SCALP HUNT ON IN
WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, May 11.-Sub-
scribers and supporters of the APP
peal to Reason, the socialist paper
published weekly at Girard, Kas.,
are rejoicing at the action taken
recently by Representative A. j.
SABBATH of Illinois, in introducing a
resolution in congress asking for
an investigation of the methods OF
handling receiverships in the fed
eral courts. Socialists feel that the
investigation of the federal judges
asked for comes as a climax to a
series of disclosures the Kansas
publication has been making of the
private and public career of United
States Judge Peter S. Grosscup.
SABBATH says that if it could be
shown to him that the Chicago
jurist had done things which war
ranted Impeachment proceedings
he would press the resolution, al
ready introduced. The Appeal to
Reason declares it possesses the
proof of corruption on the part of
Judge Grosscup, and that if a con-
gressional investigation is ordered
it will produce that proof.
The Appeal to Reason began the
publication of series of stories,
disclosing what it declared was the
private and public career of Judge
Grosscup, in the latter part of Jan
uary. Through a special CORE
spondent the paper ran these
stories weekly during the six or
seven weeks. They dealt first with
personalities in the extreme, and
finally with official acts, what pur-
ported to be alleged happenings In
Judge Grosscup's life from the
time when he lived as boy at
Ashland, Ohio, to his most recent
decision in the United States cir
cult court at Chicago.
At the conclusion of the disclos-
ures Eugene V. Debs spoke at an
immense mass meeting at Orches-
ira hall, in Chicago, where in he
flayed Judge Grosscup mercilessly,
challenging the judge to meet him
in debate and disprove the charges
preferred. Shortly after the Debs
meeting, Judge Grosscup left Chi
cago for Egypt, where, he said, he
intended to remain several months.
Briefly, the charges against
Judge Grosscup, as to his official
conduct, as preferred by the Ap-
peal to Reason, are:
That he used railroad passes and
private Pullman cars in going
about the country.
That he was charged before the
United States supreme court with
doing things in the Union traction
receivership which were unbecom-
ing in Judge, and for which he
should have been punished.
That he committed actual en-
bezzlement on one occasion, and
forced the clerk of the court to be-
come an accessory to the crime.
That he started his judicial ca
reer as a poor man, and in Is years
amassed a fortune of several mil
lions.
To none of these charges has
Judge Grosscup replied.
If Representative Sabath's reso-
luton results in an investigation
of Judge Grosscup the truthfulness
of the charges made by the Appeal
to Reason will be put to the test.
Recently the Chicago Federation of
Labor considered a resolution
which carried with it the demand
