Gardner to Go Free
If u. s. Makes No Case.

Captain Portman also conferred with
Assistant Solicitor Ed Hill, of the Grim
inal court, as to the state charge
against Gardner but no definite action
was taken.
Captain Portman told {. reporter for
The Georgian that, in the event the
government refuses to make case,
there will be no further prosecution
Of Gardner. He said he felt sorry for
Gardeners wife and seven children, and
had no desire to cause them any fur
Their pain and suffering, although he ex-
pressed bitterness toward Gardner.
The whole matter now is up TO the
Federal authorities" said Captain Port
man, a stalwart Kentuckian. Il have
laid the facts before them, and if they
choose to proceed I'll aid them in any
way l can. But if they let the case
drop. then I'll make no further effort
to prosecute. I felt it my duty as an
official and a citizen to place the facts
before them.
IF Gardner alone would suffer in
this affair, then there would be an en-
tirely different story. I would punish
him to the fullest extent of the law,
l would never stop until he got justice,

Councilman Ashley said he believed
the contract for the new garbage dis
posal plant committed the city to use
less extravaganza He added that the
reason for his taking such early action
was TO settle the matter at once so as
to prevent a fight in the finance com
mttee and i'm council.
The contract is Illegal and when
the court asks for the reasonableness
of my position l will have plenty OF
argument to submit he said.
Chief Jentzen said today that the De
structor Company. which has the con-
tract for the plant, had done little worl,
ana placed practically no material on
the grounds All that has been done
has been little excavating and the
placing OF some cement and rock on
the site of the plant.
The old crematory has been com
pletely torn away. All garbage is be-
ing dumped around the edges of the
city.

Beauty is of two kinds, and to my

Pictorial Beauty.
The pictorial beauty is one who is

Despite Gloomy Prediction

Robert M. New

Washington, Nov. 4.-Despite the
gloomy predictions of croakers ano
doubling Thomases, the postal savings
systef is now one of the most popular
institutions in the country, and its
establishment has encouraged thrift,
in every section Of the United States
and amongst all classes. The Hon.
Alexander NJ. Dockery, third assist
ant postmaster general, takes pride
in it's remarkable growth, as evidenc,
ed in the following official statement,
which he has had specially prepared
for the Bismarck Tribune:
On September 80, 1913, there were
1921 postOfices with 1900 depOsi-
tories (%including 673 braches and sta,
tions) in operation and Of these 12,-
1927 Offices s, 1862 were of the Presi'
dental grade, and 1865 fourth class.
On this date the number Of deposit
ors was about $4,000, and the amount
on deposit approximately $36,600, 900,
or an average of 500 per deposi.or.
OF the $3G,600,O00 on deposit about
$26,400, 600, or seven-tenths GO per
cent?, was held in the 80 Offices hav-
ing deposits Of $4,000 or over, and
SIS $50, 900, or about one-half (49.S

100000 or over. About one-sixth

that in the course Of the trial I'M,
portant evidence will be obtained
that will throw light upon the death
Of five other children Of the prls-
oner, who died under peculiar circum-
stances in the last eight years. 1t
will be pleaded in Mrs. LeckWold's
defense that she was infatuated with
William Norman, a barber, consider
ably younger than she, and that it
was upon his suggestion that Mrs.
lockwood poisoned her daughter ana
tried to poison her husband and her

tiles at the state institution are at a
loss to know where the unknown has
gone. His sudden disappearance las
added another puzzle to the case.
which has been %shrouded in bystery
from the beginning and no explana-
lion can be given for the sudden de.
parture, as j. G. r. has realized that
all that possibly could be done for
him was being directed in his behalf.
His departure has revealed that, be-
fore leaving the state hospital, J.. C..
z. took several Old coins belonging to
an inmate Of the asylum, who has a
mania for the collection Of rare coins
and who had gathered together many
pieces of money.
j. G.. r. was last seen at the hos.
pital late Friday. He has had the
freedom of the institution and no at
ten ton has been given to the
thought that the man would run away,
IS he has appeared perfectly salts
fed with the treatment accorded him
and took a great interest in the eff
'orts Of the officials to learn his iden-
tity.
Late Friday he was noticed on the
streets Of Rochester, Il few familiar
with his case recognizing him as he,
with cane in hand, limped down the
street.
Attempts to Board Train.
In the evening he attempted to
board II of the trains IN the North
Western road, pointing in an easterly
direction. when asked by the brake,
man as to his destination. Being
unable to obtain passage, he then
soNGht to bay a ticket, placing the
coins in his possession at the ticket
window, but the necessary t%ransporta,
tiCn al not furnished him, upon the
advice of a Rochester citizen.
No more attention was paid to the
matter, as those who knew the case
believed he would return to the hos
pital when he found he could not Sc
cure a ride on the cars.
Whereabouts Is Mystery.
Dut he failed to show up at the
state hospital and where he has gone
is a mystery. Efforts to locate aim
have thus far proven unavailing. !

his absence has never been for any

Detroit, Mich, Nov. TWENTY-FIVE

Foley vas consecrated bishop of the
Roman Catholic diocese of Detroit
and the anniversary of that event was
celebrated here today in a quiet and
dignified manner. Congratulations
from dignitaries Of tho church and lay
men arrived in large number at the

November 5, 1888. and graduated from
St. Mary's college in that city in

Cardinal Patrizzi in 1856. In 1883 he
consecrated Bishop OF Detroit.
