Leaders among the foreign born pop
ulation of the city should take pains
to inform their countrymen that no
steamship company can guarantee the
return of relatives and friends from
foreign countries now at war while the
war lasts. The fraud which has been
worked in other cities by alleged steam
ship agents who have collected large
sums from foreigners to be used in
bringing relatives and friends out of
the danger zone of the European war
could easily be duplicated in this city
where thousands of foreigners are in
tensely worried over the fate Of their
families and friends in the old coun-
try. This confidence game is one of the
most cruel and heartless that has ever
been worked on the foreign born resi-
dents of the state and they have often
been victimized in one way and an
other When these crooks are finally
caught, the limit of the law will be an
inadequate punishment for their of
tense.

Red Cross Co. Would Take
Over the Store of the
Public Drug Co.
W0UlDPAYOFF CREDITORS NOW

The Public Drug Company, in charge
of the handsome store at the corner
Of Main and Market street, is admit
ted to be in financial straits and Alfred
L. Drury, acting as an attorney for one
of the largest creditors Of the company,
has sent out a letter to the creditors
Of the company seeking compromise
of claims with view of effecting the
sale of the store to T. w. Thiesen of
Racine, the president of the Red Cross
Drug Company, which is in charge of
several of the best drug stores in this
section of the state In the letter it is
declared that the Public Drug Company
has been in financial trouble for some
time and that the effort to sell off suf-
ficlent of the stock to meet the claims
Of the creditors has been an unsuccess-
full one. 1t is said that the liabilities
OF the company are in the neighbor-
hood Of SO 900 and that the assets are
placed by the attorney at $1,000.
President Thiesen of the Racine com
pany, has taken an option on the store
which IS to expire on August 25th and
with view of buying a going concern
an offer has been made to settle with
the creditors on thirty five per cent
basis. 1t is claimed that this is a lit
tie more than could be secured should
the creditors seek to get into the bank
ruptcy courts. 1t is said that three Of
the largest creditors of the company
have already consented to accept the
compromise Of the debts and it is ex-
pected that others will accept before
the option expires If the store is pur-
chased by Mr.. Thiesen it will be
operated in connection with the chain
OF stores owned by that company. 1T
has been an open secret that the Red
Cross Drug Company has been seeking
to open a store in KenOsh1 for some
time and it is claimed that for This
reason Thiesen was willing to under
take to settle the financial affairs of
the company in order co secure posses
sion of the store.
1t is stated in the negotiations for
settlement that the fixtures of the
store are not owned by the Public Drug
Company and that the owner of the
building has 5000 chattel mortgage
covering the stock Of the company
f. Bernstein has been in charge of
the business of the company since the
store was opened and the stock of it
has been owned by several Kenosha
people. Recently efforts have been
made to sell further stock in the COM
pany, but these efforts have been un-
successful.

The street assessment committee re-
ported to the council at the meeting
Monday evening that the paving petit
ton for Ridge street now carries the
signatures of large majority of the
property owners and it looks very much
as if the street would be paved next
year without any further trouble. The
council is to be congratulated on the
good sense displayed in not permitting
the city to be drawn into any contro-
versy with the property owners on this
street as would have happened had the
city attempted to sign for frontage
consents for city property and the
property owners on their good sense in
adjusting their own differences and de-
Gliding to go ahead will their own
business in treir own way. 1t would
not have been good policy for the coun-
Gil to have attempted to force improve
ments IN the manner suggested and any
such action would most surely have re-
suited in a law suit, and the improve
ment of the street would very probably
have been delayed long time for the
case would have had to go to the SUI
preme court for decision This plan
of permitting property owners to settle
their own differences without any in
reference by the council works well
and is recommended as safe precedent
for future councils to follow.

Baby Thrown from Go-cart

Fannie Jacobs. four years old, Of
23S Bergen street, escaped with few
slight bruises when she was thrown
from a go-cart yesterday. Her leg
became caught in the wheel of a
passing wagon. The child was being
wheeled across Jones street at
Springfield avenue by her mother
when the go-cart got too close to a
milk wagon. Mrs. Jacobs screamed
as her daughter was thrown to the
ground and the wagon was brought
to a stop. The milk wagon was
driven by Max Sienger, of SO Bruce
street. An examination showed that
the child suffered only minor bruises
