WH|TLOCK HERE;
DENIES SHORTAGE
Former Treasurer of Vermilion
County, Illinois, Declares He Didn't
Take Cent of Public Funds.

Fl. H. Whitlock, former treasurer of
Vermilion county, Illinois, who is
said to be $37, short in his ac-
counts as treasurer, Is living with his
wife and five children at No, 81 Alex
andrine-ave. west, Detroit, where he
has been for the past month.
Whitlock says he owes the county
of Vermilion not one cent, and that
his books will be found correct. He
also declares that he is willing and
ready to return voluntarily to his for
mer home, in Danville. at any time
the authorities may see fit to request
his presence.
The supervisors OF the county found
fault with the way he was conducting
his office in regard to the collection
of fees, but he says this matter was
settled satisfactorily TO the super
visors before he vacated the Office
last fall, when he was defeated for
reelection. He quit Danville after his
defeat. partly because of the unpleas-
antness he had over the question OF
collecting fees and for the purpose OF
seeking new position, he explains.
He believed chances were good here
to get work inasmuch as Detroit is
''lively town
He Is a liveryman by occupation
and he plans TO take up that work If
his health, which is now someyhat
shattered, will permit.
Asked If he had any money on de-
posit in Danville, Whitlock replied
in the negative, saying he never had
enough money TO start bank account
anywhere. He AYERS that his coming
to Detroit was no secret; that many
people in Danville knew Of his des-
tination when he removed.
Whitlock's name has been mention
ed in connection with the vote-selling
scandal now being investigated in
Danville, and II is intimated that his
own campaign may be included in the
inquiry.

op-elect remaining at his left. Having
finished thee onfession Cardinal Glib
bons ascended to the altar, kissed 1t
and the gospels to be said in the mass
and incensed the altar in the usual
manner. lie then proceeded with the
mass. g.-
The bishop-elect was then led to
his chapel where his vestments were
re-arranged and he was invested with
the peCtoral cross, tunic, dalmatlc,
chasuble and maniple, after which
he advanced to the. altar ands stand:
fnE~ bet~eeRs the assistant consecrat-
ors, with uncovered head, read the
mass up to the alleleuia. Following
this all the litanies were chanted,
and the bishop-elect was then present
ed with the pastoral STAFF. The bish-
op-eleCt was then annointed and pre-
sented with the pontifical ring, the
gospels and the kiss of peace. He
was then presented with the mitre
and episcopal ring and enthroned.
The hymn I'VE Praise Thee, oh
Lord" was then sung, during which
Bishop Kelly, led by the assistant
Consecrators. passed around the
church bestowing blessings upon the
congregation.
The conservation sermon was
preached by Archbishop ireland.
A special train on the Michigan
Central brought the Detroit church
officials and others who attended the
conservation. Although the church is
q large one it was too small to accom-
modate half Of the people who wish
ed to attend the exercises, and in
spite OF the cold a large number re-
NAMED on the outside during a large
part OF the services.
Although Bishop Kelly has been
assigned to duty as auxiliary bishop
of the Detroit. he is nevertheless a
bishop. His official see, however is
no longer in existence. The see Of
Cestra Is located in Isauria in Asia
Minor, and during the early history
of the church was a noted one. How
ever, it perished during the Moslem
invasion, and today it Is not even
known where the ancient city Of CeS-
ira was located.
Following the ceremonies which
made Father Kelly Bishop of Cestra,
dinner was served in the parochial
hall The prelates were seated on
the rostrum and the clergy in the
main auditorium. The hall was ap.
propriately decorated for the event.

While everybody in Ann Arbor re-
joices with Bishop Kelly in his newly
acquired honors they congratulate
themselves that it will not be neces
sary for him to leave this city. Dur.
ing his work in this city he has en-
deared himself not only to his own
parishioners. but to everybody. He
has been foremost in the work Ot
civic Improvement and the advance,
ment OF art in Ann Arbor. and IL II
had been necessary for him 10 leave
the city his loss would have been

Tips OFF INVENTOR
As C0UhTERFEITER
Mrs. Anna B. Rodda Makes Mistake
As To Occupation Of Roomcr, and
Man Is Out For Revenge.

Because his mysterious, allnight.
tinkering with inventions was mis-
taken for counterfeiting operations.
Walter B. Carter. an elderly and &c
centric inventor. has sworn vengeance
on Mrs. Anna b. Rodda, school teach
er. She is made defendant in suit
called for Saturday morning in Justice
Lemkie's court. The suit is under
stod to be for the recovery Of money
due, but government officials and
others have been summoned TO give
testimony.
Carter formerly had rooms in the.
house occupied by Mrs. Rodda. at No..
S5 Eorest-ave. east, and fitted up q
laboratory and workshop. where he
spent his nights, working. He has
taken out several patents. Those who
have visited his rooms say he has q
whole museum OF assorted trinkets,
including maps, pieces OF machinery,
drawings, tools and other articles or
every conceivable description. Among
his treasures is a filing cabinet in
which he has letters and newspapers
dating since the SOS, so systematicai-
ly arranged that he can place his hand
on any one at moments notice.
Some time ago. It is said. Carter
sent TO Washington and asked for
the exact dimensions OF the plates
used for printing greenbacks. This
led TO the federal authorities here be-
ing notified. About the same time, II
is said. Mrs. Rodda notified the fed
eral officers that they would do well
TO watch the inventors rooms, saying
that he worked all night, and she did
not know what he did. This led to
search, but the officers were con-
! yinced that no nefarious operations
were In progress.
Since then, Carter has repeatedly
written Washington, and has also
pursued a course or retaliation o.
Mrs. Rodda, buying accounts against
her, il is alleged, for the purpose OF
suing her for the amounts. Needless
to say, he no longer occupies quar-
ters in her house.

State BEAN CROP
WORTH s20,000,000
Michigan's Yield for 1910 Was
6,15o,00O Bushels-Jobbers Hold
Annual Session.

Reports presented before the Michi-
gan Bean Jobbcrs' association, which
began its mid-winter meeting in tho
Hotel Cadillac, Wednesday, showed
that Michigans crop of beaus for 1910
amounted TO 6.150,000 bushels. which,
when baked and placed on the market,
will be worth close TO S20,000.000. The
crop was the largest of the lNnd pro
duCed in the United States and big
ger than the harvest OF 1909 in Mich,
igan. Yet the marketable product of
1910 was not greater than that OF the
previous year, because much OF the
1910 crop was damaged by rains.
j. A. Heath. OF LenoX, president cf
the association. in his report. told OF
successful experiments which had
been made in regard to bean growing
during the past year. He commended
the use of fertilizer and related the
instance OF a Macomb county farmer
who had increased his yield of beans
from IS to % bushels 10 the acre as n
result OF the fertllizing process and
other methods. He thought the state
agricultural college ought 10 make eX-
tensive experiments on aids TO bean
growing.
To show the farmers that the Bean
Jobbers' association is a benefit TO
them, V. p. Cash, of Riverdale. secre-
tary of the organization, pointed out
mat while beans sold at $1.25 and
$3.50 a bushel eight years ago, they
were now selling at an advance of so
cents over this price. Advertising by
the association had caused the people
to eat more beans, he said.
Frederick c. Martindale, secretary
of state, advised the association that
there would be no more crop reports
furnished by the state, as the Iegis-
lature had cut off the appropriation
for the work.
Others who spoke were: J. Ralph
Pickell, editor Of the National Hay ana
Grain Reporter, of Chicago, and
Charles A. Heath, of the same city,
while G. f. Allmendinger, of Ann
Arbor; II. Il. Burkhart, of Fowlerville
and w. \, Isbell, of Lansing made re-
ports on different matters affecting the
bean industry. ....

TELLS OF ATTEMPTS TO
BRIBE HIS NEWSPAPER
Business Manager Of Journal Of Com
merce Says Ship Subsidy Interests
Offered Bribes.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.--Revela-
tion OF several attempts to buy the
editorial support OF the New Yorx
Journal of Commerce in favor OF ship
subsidy legislation, which that paper
has consistently opposed, was made 20
the house ship subsidy investigating
committee yesterday by Alfred W
Dodsworth, business manager OF the
Journal of Commerce and CONNER
cial Bulletin.
The witness said that his paper
never had been subsidized by any In
terests and its business and editorial
columns had no relation. But. no
testified. about six years ago an un-
known man came into his Office and
offered to pay the Journal OF Com
merce 100000. taking 1000, ,0O0< COP
les of his paper, for the insertion or
an article on one issue supporting the
ship subsidy legislation.
This man refused TO disclose his
identity unless his proposition was I'd
be accepted. His proposition was, ia
the event of acceptance, to make otir
certified check Immediately for SIG,
900 TO bind the agreement and 20 paw
the balance of $4,000 on publication
OF the article.
Mr.. Dodsworth said he Immediately
called his brother, John w, into his
Office as a witness to the conversation
and the proposition was turned down
rs an attempt TO make an improper
arrangement
That, however. was only one such
event. Pressed by the committee, Mr..
DOdsworth said that about 80 years
ago his father was sitting in his OF
fee. of the same publication, and John
Roach, the shipbuilder, who was then
building ships and active for ship
subsidy bill. entered the Office, laic
down blank check, asked the elder
Dodsworth to fill out the check and
stop writing against ship subsidy.
The offer was refused,
Another man, about two years ago,
Mr.. Dodsworth said, tried TO buy tho
support OF the paper for $4,000, and
during the Spanish-American war the
Spanish government tried to buy the
papers influence.
Chairman Olcott, Rep. Longworth.
OF Ohio. and other members of the
committee sharply criticized the two
brothers for falling to submit this In.
formation to the committee before
new pointing out that John w. Doas-
worth. i'm his testimony some time
ago, had been asked categorically as
to such matters and had denied an
information such as that disclosed to-
day The witness said the COMMITTEES
would have 10 ask the brother why he
failed TO disclose the information.
