EL0PERS KIDNAP JUDGE.

Memphis, Tenn. July 12-KidnappInR a
more or less willing magistrate in a bis
seven-passenger automobile in which
were crowded seven young people
seemingly bent on a merry pleasure ride
every member OF the party pledged tc
secrecy and then whirling about the city
for more than half an hour in search
of freak spot to hold the ceremony,
were a few incidents attendant upon the
wedding of John Keliher and Miss Ethel
Watkins, both of Memphis.
After a search through the parks of
the city and through the business sec
ton without suitable results, the party
finally decided on Confederate Park,
overlooking the river, as the most ap-
propriate scene for the wedding. After
alightingA from the big machine another
search ensued, but in a more restricted
area. First secluded hooks were looked
into, park benches were considered, the
sun dial failed to supply the setting, and
finally some one suggested the big can
non reposing in the park.
This seemed to supply the need, and the
bride and bridegroom took up places on
each side Of the old war relic. With
scores OF persons passing back and
forth within a few feet of the party,
the ceremony was read in a low voice
by Magistrate J. P. Cashin. Even when
the wedding was over and the party
had returned to their machine, no one
outside of the immediate few realized
that a wedding had taken place.

WARBURG ATTACK LAID
TO WALL STREET WOLF
Presidents Friends Trace Opposition
to Federal Reserve Candidate
to David Lamar.

Special to The Washington Herald.
New York, July 12-The World today
printed a statement that President Will
sons friends have traced the anonymous
attack upon Paul NJ. warburg to David
Lamar the Wolf OF Wall Street"
Two years ago. says the World.
Lamar was prevented by the World
from leading a United States Senator into
making an attack on a corporation in or
der that he could profit from the effect
of that attack on the stock market.
Later, he tried to force Congress to in
vestigate Attorney General McReynolds
an dthe dissolution of the Union Pacific
He stands now indicted for impersonat-
ing a member OF Congress.
Lamar Is said to have been assisted
in spreading this circular attack by Her
man ]. Schulteis, counsel for the So
called Antitrust League, and Henry
Martin, OF New York, secretary Of the
league.
The Anti-Trade League has dug up
the records. giving the dates on which
M. Warburg took out his papers Of citi-
zenship. These, the league hopes to get
into the hands of members OF the opposi-
tIon In the Senate in a few days.
Friends OF President Wilson are jubi-
liant over the alleged running down of the
source OF this attack. They assert II will
be \ boomerang: that any Senator who
vii. accept the suggestions Of the circu-
lar must align himself with Lamar and
his associates"

tory conditions. and later was refused

theory of the police, the motive for the
murder.
Poland is in the Red Cross ward Of the
District jail and refuses TO be inter
