BANKER ADMITS LARCENY
Austrian, Once Considered Pros
porous, Remanded for Sentence.

Alexander Borys, who until July. 1910,
was reputed one of the most prosperous
Of the Austrian bankers in this city, plead
ed guilty to an indictment charging him
with grand larceny yesterday before Judge
Rosalsky, in General Sessions. Father Jo-
seph Letanche, of st. Clements Church, at
No $50 West 10Th street, who three years ago
when his church was dedicated was one
Of a party Of several clergymen. some Of
them high in the councils OF the Roman
Catholic Church, who were entertained by
Borys at his home. was one Of the COM
plainants against him. He was remanded
for week for sentence
James A. Delehanty, the Assistant Dis
trict Attorney IN Judge Rosalsky's court,
said the 500 which Father Letanche gave
Borys for two worthless checks was used
by the latter to get out of town. or the
$4,000 which Mr. Delehanty said Borys's
depositors had lost no trace has been
found. The other complainant against
Borys is Antoni Uryasz, Of Merden, Conn
Besides his bank at No 554 West 5Oth
street, Borys had an Office at No. 200 Broad
way, where he had moved from an office
further downtown, formerly occupied by
the Austrian Consul. Uryasz went TO the
office at No. 20 Broadway where Borys
advertised himself as advocate" and
made arrangements to have Borys collect
for him his fathers estate in Austria
Uryasz found that a check for ss4s which
Borys sent to him as the proceeds of the
estate was worthless BY the time he got
to New York on July 4. 1910, Borys had
departed
The Austrian government. according TO
Alexander Grau-Wandmeyer, secretary Of
the consulate, considered Borys such n
menace to Austrian residents OF this cjtv
that the papers In every matter which he
had undertaken TO settle for Austrians had
been collected and would have been for
warded to this country had he not pleaded
guilty.
Borys was found through the efforts OF
the Austrian Consul at Winnipeg Mani
tooa' last April. Mr.. Delehanty said he
was living there with sixteen-year-oId
GIRL who had accompanied him on his b,r.
ried trip from New York.

bv Mr.. barrow to testify falsely to the
grand fury and that he had received
merely expense money to come to Los
Angeles and that Mrs. MECHANICAL had first
asked him to make the trip, His reason
for appearing against Darrow, Benin said
was his desire to "clear' himself because
Of having committed perjury before the
grand Jury last August. The cross-exam-
nation was to show that Benin had not
boen corrupted by barrow.

NEEDED SUGAR FACTORIES
Farmers of Utah and Idaho
Found Beets Profitable.

The development Of the beet sugar indus
try in Utah and Idaho after 1t had been
started by a mere scctG ont, and the benefits
which the farmers Of these two states de-
rived through the sale Of sugar beets were
described yesterday at the hearing In the
governments suit for the dissolution Of the
American Sugar Refining Company by
Thomas R. Cutler. vce-president of the
Utah-Idaho Sugar Company.
The story was told In response to
question as to whether there was much
agitation throughout Utah and Idaho about
1900 for the erection OF sugar factories.
MIR Cutler said the whole Of that territory
was anxious to obtain sugar factories. be-
cause the farmers were in need OF creating
a demand for something that they could
grow, and sugar beets had been found
profitable
Prior to 1889 there was no thought OF
growing beets, Mr.. Cutler said, and farms
were mortgaged heavily because OF their
inability to ind O. market for produce, and
many farms had to he sold for tax arrears.
The Utah Sugar Company was organized
without any thought that sugar could be
produced from beets grown near the fac
tory, Mr.. Cutler said, and the plan was
to make sugar from sorghum cane sugar
This was found impracticable because OF
frosts and finally beets were accepted as a
substitute. The hrst three years brought
heavy financial Losses, and only the bounty
paid by the federal government and the
State Of Utah saved the company, the Wit
ness said, Finally, In 1893, the factory
began to pay and from that time on the
industry developed rapidly in Utah and
later in Idaho. and thousands of acres
were turned into cultivation OF beets. The
farmers paid of their mortgages, Mr.. Cut
Ter said, ana tho agitation for more fac
tories swept over the country.

FELL FROM
moving TRAIN

WILLOW CITY, Jan. 19.-When
the belated passenger pulled into this
city Wednesday evening Conductor
Else was quite ex rcised over the
fact that passenger had disappeared
completely from the time the train
left Barton to the time it whistled for
this city. At Rugby a man very
mucn the worse for liquor boarded
the train ticketed for small station
up the line. At Barton he was de-
termined to get off but George put
him back in the coach and told him
to stay there until told to get out.
This he did not do and shortly after
the rain left Barton and while the
conductor was busy he evidently
went out on the platform and fell off.
George did not think of him again
until he was pulling into this city.
A hasty search of the train revealed
the fact that the man was gone. A
message was sent to Barton while the
train waited and soon word came that
the man had been located walking
back to town. Fortunately for him
he was not killed or far from town
for it was 46 below that night.

RUSSIAN 1HISILES FED
BY 5. DAKOTA farmers

PIERRE, Jan. 19.-On account of
tn, shortage of hay last summer,
many farmers cut and stacked tons of
Russian thistles for feed for the
winter. Now that they have been
feeding the thistles, the reports as to
results are varied ranging all the
way to those who have found the
thistle to be good fodder plant, and
announcing their intention to stack
them as part of their winter supply
for every year, clear along the scale
to those who claim that their stock
are dying from being fed the thistles.
Between these two are all grades of
opinion ranging from good, fair, in
different, poor and worthless. 1t is
more than likely that the time of cut
ting. and manner of handling thistles
by the different farmers who are test
ing them, has great deal to do with
their expressions as to their value as
a fodder plant.
