that the figures OF Mr.. Hopkins and Of

 FRAUD WIPED
POstOffice Inspectors Believe Arrests of T. R. Kelly and Arthur Bird of Pacific Loan Company
 Ends SWindle.

Seattle, Wash, Jan. 17.-In the ar rest yesterday of T. R. Kelly, secre tary and Arthur Bird, treasurer of the Pacific Mutual Bond and Loan Company, on federal warrants charg- in gthem with using the mails to de- fraud, postoffice inspectors today said they believed they had unearth- ed one of the largest swindling schemes ever conducted in the Pacific Northwest.
 Warrants have been issued for oth- CT officers of the company, who are being sought throughout the country. Kelly and Bird were arraigned be- fore a United States commissioner and held to the Grand Jury under $4,O0O bail each, in default of which they were remanded to jail.
 According to postoffice inspectors, the Pacific Mutual Bond and Loan Company, which was incorporated in Washington two. years ago with a capial stock of s25, 1000, to lend money on farm mortgages, really had no money to lend and duped prospective borrowers by charging an examina- tion fee of one per cent on the amount of the loan desired. The money obtained in this way, the gov ernment alleges, was diverted to the use of the officers of the company and no farm loans were made.
 Postoffic einspectors say the com pany had agents in all Western cities.

MONTY FURNISHES kN077Y QUESTIONS Over Baseball Situation, But He Lets Public
 Guess.
MAY GEE BIG SMASHUP
Federal League Is More Than J;kolv To Cause Many Sensation for
 Followers of Game.
BY MONTY :

New York, Jan. 17.-There are sev- eral things that baseball fans would like to know just now. Here are a few:
 Why is the American League ob- serving its passive and apparently complacent attitude toward the Fed eral League?
 Why is the Federal League practi- cally confining it's player raids to the National League?
 Who is interested financially in the Federals besides those men whose names already have appeared in con- nection with the affair?
 Who, if anybody, influenced Char ley Cominskey to persuade John Me- Graw to go on the world tour with him?
 Did Cominskey have any reasons aside from the plan desire for such trip?
 How many members of McGraw's New York Giants will be Federal Leaguers by the time McGraw re- turns home?
 Who had sufficient influence to persuade Lloyd Rickart to go over to the Federal Lague as it's secretary leaving a lucrative job as secretary of the St. Louis Browns when every thing seemed against his new move?
 Have other American League pow CTS placed Bob Hedges. the Browns owner, in the same boat with certain National Leaguers so far as the Fed erals are concerned?
 Are the Brooklyn, Pittsburghs and Cincinnati Reds pulling important oars in that boat?
 If so, did the stand of these clubs against Tom Lynch's reelection as National League president cut any figure?
 Is any high American League of ficial jealous of any prominent Ma tional League official?
 Does anybody feel peeved at being forced to play second fiddle who for merly played first fiddle?
 .i Does any such man feel peeved over the fact tht another man in a fival organization now draws a bigger salary than he?
 Are such personal feelings reflected in the attitude of any league toward any new league? fs
 How long will it b before certain scandalous rumors call forth for ! nal denial from the man mentioned most in connection with them
 Would 1t be possible for that man { to wipe away the idea by mere de- nial.
 Are any former candidates for the presidency of the National League watching the efforts of the Federals with more than the interest of an out slider?
 What has become of Tom Lynch?
 Also what is John Montgomery Ward doinf now?
 Does any man formerly prominent in baseball hold an option on a base ball park in Greater New York.

uLCl0 Wnll6 SQ0 had to take out her handkerchief to wipe away the stupid tears that filled her eyes.
 How could Rich- ard ever have the heart to talk to her as he had done? They had been married only a year, and now he already be- haved as if he were the master and she his slave. She had never thought that they would be unkind to one another, but of course she would not remain silent when he came home from the office in bad uumOr, 50 Ter re- plies were sharp and biting.

friend. her own godmother. Mrs. Berner.
 Come home and have a cup of cof. fee," she said. Mary has just baked some cakes"
 "Ob, am so unhappy! Richard does not love me any more!"
 What do you say? Doesn't he love you any more?'
 No, I am sure he doesn't, or he would not talk to me as he does." And she told about several of their latest quarrels.
 But are you quite sure that you are not to blame little yourselfe"
 "I know I am not" said Julie with determination, "but of course cannot always be gay and jolly when he sulks and is unreasonable. There will be no happiness for me in life any more."
 Now, that is nonsense. my dear. am sure your husband loves you as much as ever. but you are ruining your own happiness quarreling over trif1es."
 "But what do you want me to do?"
 q will help you, dear," said Mrs. Berner. q will send you talisman."
 "A talisman?"
 "Yes, here 1t is," said Mrs. Berner, and handed Julie an old-fashioned bracelet.
 What 10 you mean when you Say 1t Is talisman?"
 q will tell you. When had been married about year. I too imagined that my husband did not love me be, cause we sometimes quarreled. Then my mother gave me this bracelet and told me to wear 1t always"
 Julie thanked her very much. but put put no faith in the bracelet.
 When Richard came home for din- ner he had unfortunately brought g friend and as the dinner was rather spoiled, his humor was not the best when he was alone with his wife after- ward
 "It was disgraceful to offer Miller a dinner like the one you served to- night" he said angrily.
 T am very sorry, Dick, but shall be very careful not to let it happen aagin."
 One morning few days later when Julie entered the dressing room she found her husband standing at the closet looking very much annoyed.
 "You have not had my gray suit sent to the tailor to be pressed" he growled. "Why have you not done so?"
 Because am not your slave?" Julie was about to answer. but again she remembered the bracelet and also that Richard had several times asked her to send out the suit. but she had thoughtlessly forgotten 1t.
 Do not be angry, Dick. dear." she said. T know 1t is shame that have forgotten 1t, but shall send 1t to the tailor today"
 Richard again looked at her, greatly surprised, but she pretended not to no tice 1t.
 Well. 1t really does not matter 60 very much. dear. Today will do just as we'll"
 A week later Julie visited her god mother. She looked as happy as dur ing her honeymoon and Mrs. Berner told her so.
 Well. gcdmother, I do feel a if I were having Q second honeymoon. I know that Dick loves me. as much as he ever did"
 "And how did you discover thatf"
 Tt was the talismAn you gave me"
 "Then 1t has brought you luckf"
 Indeed 1t has. have brought 1t back. as 0o not need 1t any more"
 Are you quite sure?"
 Quite. l have discovered its secret" Julie laughed. "One of my own bracelets will do just as we'll. now

Then a boathook caught the back OF

He looked up witlessly into the face

gled feebly.
The others voice brought him back
to his senses. Easy, old topl Take
it easy! You're all right now-rest

He obeyed, controlling his panic as
best he might; and presently, with
considerable assistance from Barcus,
contrived to scramble in over the gun
wales of boat which proved to be
the stolen lifsboat.
Aside from Barcus and himself it
held one other person only-the WON.

But Alan wasn't listening. His face
was as lightless az the waters that

numbed even the sense OF relief. OF

He woke mutinously, with a yawn
and SILVER in the gray of furnished

heavily upon the face Of the waters, a
mist SO thick that from the stern the
waist Of the vessel was almost invis-
tble, the bows completely SO.
Barcus stood over him, at the wheel,
fairly Keeling with WEAKNESS, his eyes
blood-shot, swollen, and half-closed In
face like a mask OF fatigue.
Cant keep this up much longer"
he apologized thickly; stood it about
as long as ! can. Take your trick and

Grateful solicitude brought Alan in

With a chuckle. Alan obedieutly
stretched himself out on the deck.

'Well?"
You seem pretty easy in your mind
about this young woman below. To
me, she's the same that tried to send

she explain her presence aboard?"

A dozen lusty strokes brought them
alongside the schooner. and as the
dory soraped the waist OF the larger
vessel the two young men dropped
oars, rose. and selling the low gun
wales, lifted themselves to the deck.
Nothing opposed them; the deck was
ignorant Of other footsteps than their
own, the schooner as silent as only a
becalmed ship can be.
Without further consultation, Alan
led quickly aft and down the compan-
.ionway to the cabin. where a dim light
burned-a smoky lamp swinging In
gimbals above cluttered table
