ALLEGED REALTY SWlNDLER
LOCKED UP IN CITY JAIL
l.. L. Mutt of Kansas city Said TO
Have Sold Vacant oklahoma
Land as Highly Improved.

L. L. Mutt OF Kansas City, was arrested
at the Windsor hotel. charged with having
defrauded M. T. McMahon of Lincoln, in
real estate trade which the two men con-
summated about three weeks ago. The man
who was arrested traded to Mcmahon
eighth acres of land located in Custer
county, OkL. which he represented to be
finely improved. having upon it modern,
acres OF land which was in cotton. The
whole he valued at $780, In exchange for
this land he received from Mr.. Mcmahon a
city lot in Cleveland, o., valued at g. 900
and $500 in cash. 1t was understood, too,
Mcmahon when he gave a satisfactory
deed to the Oklahoma property.
Mutt after receiving the deed to the
Cleveland property, lost no time in con-
veying the property into cash, but sold 1t
Immediately at the extremely low figure,
$500 McMahon meanwhile, had not had
his suspicious aroused and he was bissfully
ignorant of the deception which had been
practiced upon him until few days ago
when he went to Oklahoma to view his
newly acquired possessions. Then 1t was
that he learned the land in question had
never even SO much as been under cult
walton, and that the four-room, modern
house was but a shack standing alone upon
the Oklahoma property.
He Immediately swore out a warrant In
Lincoln for the arreset Of Mutt, who was
trailed TO this city on last Saturday, and
| Detectives Pattullo and Davis were put on
the case. The arrest at the Windsor was
| the result.

a Progressive
Ohio Platform
Declines to Exert Influence for Any
Candidate Before Convention
Confers with Kinkaide.

NEW YORK, July 2O.--Theodore Roose-
welt hopes the republicans in Ohio will
adopt a progressive platform, but taking
an attitude in line with that Of President
Taft, he declines to exert influence for any
candidate in the ante-convention situation.
He made this plain in New York today
after a conference with Judge Reynolds
Kinkade Of Toledo. who is regarded as the
second choice OF those Ohio republicans
who are supporting James II. Garfield, ex-
secretary OF the interior for the guberna-
torial nomination.
Neither Colonel Roosevelt nor Judge Kin
kade would discuss their conference nor
would either Of them reveal the contents OF
the letter which Judge Kinkade bore from
President Taft, with whom he talked or
Sunday.
Il cannot support any candidate for q
nomination. l can only say 1 hope a pro
gresslve platform will be adopted in Ohio.
The ex-presdent took luncheon with c
A. Wilson, assistant president of thu
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen anC

The playful lunge of an affectionate dog

JEWS ExPELLED FROM KEW

KIEV, Russia. Jolly 2o.--The expulsion of
Jews from Kiev continues at the rate of
forty-five individuals day. From July a
until July TO- 497 were expelled by what is
known as the second method-that is, they
were forced actually to leave town. During
the same period 1121 persons were expelled
by the first method, which in effect is
a warning for their departure, but per-
\ lnits them time for a settlement of private
affairs. In the majority of cases the latter
method proved ineffective. as the Jews in
that category are prone to return to Kiev
after temporary absence.
During the twelve days mentioned there
were 165 expulsions from Solomenka and
ISL from Demieffka.
Since May IA. when the imperial decree
ordering that all Jews who could not estab-
fish q legal right OF residence elsewhere
should be returned within the pale, the re-
stricted district of the Polish provinces and
. the Ukraine, became effective, there have
Men, expelled from this city. Solomenka

the second method and 361 by the first
method However. in making this total OF
6,652 allowance must be made for a large
percentage of Implications In the count
Many have been expelled only to return
and be sent away again. while the .expul-
sions from Solomenka and Demieffka are

poses was accepted.
