EUGENICS LAW WILL SOON BE
BROUGHT BEFORE SUPREME
COURT.
EUGENICs KILL SENTIMENT
State Health Board Reports That Gain
in December Overbalances Loss
in Later Months
Falls Off 20o.

Madison.-The falling off in mar
riages after the going into effect of
the eugenics marriage law was more
than accounted for in the increased
number of marriages in December, ac-
cording to figures gathered in the re-
ports of the state board of health.
In December, 1912, there were 1921
marriages. In December, 1913, there
were 2,026, an increase of sos. In
January, 1913, there were 1,411 mar
riages and in January, 1914, there were
1902, a decrease of 209
The eugenics law will soon be
brought before the Supreme court, ac-
cording to Attorney General Walter G.
Owen. The law came up in Milwaukee
and was ruled against in the Circuit
court. 1t will be finally passed upon
in the Supreme court.

IN BIG ST. LOUIS FIRE
Officials of Athletic Club In ST. Louis
Say Total Number May Be In
creased-More Bodies Found.

st. Louis, March 12.-Ten bodies
have been recovered from the ruins of
the building occupied by the Missouri
Athletic club, which was destroyed by
fire early Monday morning. OF these
three were recovered after the fire
men entered the ruins. The other
seven were recovered on Monday.
Officials of the club. after entering
the ruins and recovering office sec-
ords, increased their estimates of the
dead to IS persons. They could add
no new names to the list of missing
Several days probably will elapse
before the ruins. which fill the base
ment up to the first floor, are ex-
plored, and it is feared that many Of
the bodies never will be recovered.
The vaults of the Boatmen's bank.
which occupied part of the building,
we're uncovered and found intact.
Nearly $1,300,00O in coin and cur
rency was removed under heavy po-
lice guard to the vaults of the ST.
Louis Union Trust company, where
the money will be kept until place
can be provided In the temporary
quarters of the Boatmens bank.
The city council ordered full in
vestigation of the fire with view Of
fixing the responsibility. The inquiry
will be conducted by a joint COM
mittee from both houses with power
to subpoena witnesses and take sworn
testimony. The investigation may be
extended to all hotels, clubs and the
aters in the city to safeguard them
against similar calamity.
Another death resulted indirectly
from the fire when Mrs. Louis Vogt,
twenty-five years old, died while read
ing newspaper accounts of the disas-
ter Physicians ascribed her death to
heart disease susperinduced by the
excitement occasioned by the story.

SIEGEL AND VOGEL ARE
INDICTED THREE TIMES
Grand Larceny Charged Against Part
ners In New York Private Bank
Held in $25, 600 Bail.

New York, March 13.-Henry Siegel
and Frank E. Vogel, thrice indicted
for grand larceny, were held in $685.
900 bail each by Judge Rosalsky in
the general session Wednesday. Two
accusations charging the men with ac-
cepting deposits in the private bank
of Henry Siegel & Co. after it was in
solvent are in the first two indict-
ments, while the third charges them
with obtaining $4,000 from the Ma
tional Bank of Commerce on the
strength of a false statement as to
the financial condition of the Four
teenth street store. They neglected
to mention an Indebtedness of about
$1,500,000 to various interests.
Both men surrendered, entered pleas
of not guilty and we're released under
bonds of SEE, 900 each. They were
given until March IS to change their
pleas.
Three hundred angry depositors who
had been forcibly elected from the
bankruptcy hearing hunted around the
federal building for Siegel in vain. At

ask him some questions he and his
banking partner were standing before
Judge Rosalsky pleading mot guilty.
One of the indictments charges Sci
gel and Vogel with grand larceny, In
that they made false statement to the
Bank of Commerce in order to borrow
SIS, 00O The other Indictment alleges
that the two bankers accepted depos-
its when they knew the bank of Henry
SiegeI & Co. to be insolvent.
The indictments by no means end
the proceedings of the grand jury. 1t
is alleged that an investigation by the
district attorneys office has disclosed
discrepancies of nearly 100000 be-
tween the books of the Siegel stores
and banking enterprises and the imam
ciaI statement used as basis of addi-
tionaI credits before the failure 1t is
said the total of the discrepancies may
even reach higher figure.
SiegeI testified on the stand at the
bankruptcy proceedings that he did not
invest capital in the private bank that
bore his name.
