FACES
CHARGE OF HERESY
Church Assembly Decides to Put
N. Y. Branch on Trial in
Preachers Case
ASSOCIATED Press1

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j.. May 23.-
The decision to try the New York
presbytery on charges of heresy be-
cause of the granting to Messrs.
Black, Steen and Finch preaching or
ders after the young men had refused
to accept in full the beliefs of the
church was announced by the judicial
committee of the Presbyterian assem-
bly, today.
The committee, headed by the Rev.
e. D. Warfield, president of Lafayette
college, presented a report in which
it declared the belief that the minor
ity members of the New York presby-
terry had established a prima facie
case of heresy and the matter has
been referred to the judicial committee
of the assembly, which will hear wit
nesses and report it's findings for final
action by the assembly,"
w. r. Landon of California, w. K
Spencer of Michigan, Jesse c. Bruce
of Pennsylvania, Charles Thompson OF
Minnesota and J. Y. Hamilton of Illi-
nois were elected members of the ju-
dicial committee to take the place of
members whose terms expired with the
present meeting.
Nothing has yet come from the COM
mittee on bills and overtures to which
has been referred the resolution op-
posing the holding of the Jeffries-
johnson fight on Independence day.
The general assembly is expected to
go on record in opposition to the fight,
but in what way has not yet, it is said,
been definitely decided

BIG GRAIN MERCHANTS IN
HANDS OF BANK OFFICIALS
BY Manipulation of Bills of Lading
100000 Borrowed

ALBANY, N. Y, May 29.-The firm
of Durant & Elmore, grain merchants,
with offices in Albany, Chicago, Buff
falo and Boston, is practically in the
hands of the officials of the National
Commercial and First National banks
of this city, who are creditors to the
extent of nearly 100000.
By the manipulation of bills of lad
ing, Oliver is said to have been able
to borrow hundreds of thousands of
dollars from banks in Albany and
other cities.
1t is understood, however, that the
firm has outstanding paper aggregat-
ing between 100000 and 100000, but
just what proportion of it is secured
probably will not be known for sew
eral days.
Just where the money went has not
been told, but it is said the firm was
dealing heavily in grain.
E. A. Durant of Albany is president
of the firm; Edward w. Elmore, vice
president; Gibson oliver, treasurer,
and William S. Dyer, secretary. The
company is capitalized at $750,000.

TIA JUANA BUNKO
GANG IS CAP PTURED
San Diego Police, on Tip from
Alabama Chief, Round
Up SWindlers
Associated Press1

SAN DIEGO, May 23.-For years a
gang of bunko men has been operating
at Tia Juana, just below the Mexican
line, victimizing tourists who visit
that quaint little settlement. The
swindlers are known as the Russell
gang.
A few days ago Chief of Police Will
son received a letter from Birming-
ham, Ala, announcing that John Rus
sell and Thomas Johnson, alleged
bunko men, were en- route to San
Diego for their annual harvest at Tia
Juana.
The chief at once notified his men
to be on the lookout for bunko steer
ers and as soon as 1t was definitely es-
tablished that they were at work to
arrest them.
The chief sent detectives across the
line to Tia Juana and they found the
bunko in full blast. Johnson was
easily located in this city His part
was to board the Seeing Mexico"
automobile, take his place with the
rest of the passengers, get acquainted
with them and, finding likely victim,
show him Tia Juana sights.
Johnson was arrested today. Later
in the day Bill Squires, alias Gingham,
another alleged member of the gang,
was arrested.

FOREIGN
UNCLE SAM To FIND IF
LUMBER TRUST EXISTS
Department of Justice Takes Up
Investigation of Alleged
Control of Trade

WASHINGTON, May 2S.-The de-
partment of justice is investigating the
subject of the price of lumber in the
United States with a view to deter
mining whether or not the so-called
lumber trust may be reached by the
Sherman antitrust law on the ground
that it is a combination in restraint of
trade.
For some time the officials have been
looking carefully into charges that the
so-called trust controlled the price of
lumber, and an agent has been at work
gathering information for the use of
the department. Every state county
and city, it is said, has it's lumber or
ganization which the officials declare
they believe sets the price of the article
as we'll as restricting the sale to par
ticular individuals. The so-called COM
bination, officials say, is one of the
most formidable with which the de-
partment had to deal.
The point is made that the inquiry
now under way is in line with the
policy of the department of justice to
investigate and prosecute combinations
