FATHER BELIEVES
PAUL CASE HIS SON

Believing that Paul Case, the Blythe
bank robber, who was sentenced to
life Imprisonment, is his son, H. N.
Case of Cushing, Okla, wired to
Sheriff Mobley Meadows asking for
a description of the young man WHO
assisted Tom Green in robbing the
Palo Verde National Bank, in which
the cashier was killed, and for which
crime Green is to hang on April 3,
Sheriff Meadows wired descrip-
ton of Case as he appeared here
when arrested. Photographs were
also sent so that the anxious father
might know if it is his son who is
in dire trouble. Case when in Jail
claimed that his home was in Ma
coma, Tex. He gave his height as .
feet 6 inches; weight, $50 pounds;
brown hair and gray eyes.
In connection with the case, the
item of reward has never been set
tied. The American Bankers Asso-
ciation has been investigating the
claimants, but never determined the
result.

CHINO MERCHANT IS
OBJECT OF SEARCH

Chino, March 12.-W. H. Morris,
father of r. E. Morris, the young
business man of this city, who dis
appeared last Sunday and all trace
of whom has been lost, is expected
to arrive tomorrow from Lemoorc,
Cal, to aid in the search for his
SON.,
The elder Morris was informed yes.
terday of the circumstances and any
hopes that may have been held thai
the young man might have gone to
Lemoore to see his father were shat
tered when the parent wired back
that he would come at once.
Not the slightest clew has been un-
earthed as to the whereabouts CT
young Morris or what may have hap
pened to him. 1t is feared he has
met foul play, since there is no ap-
parent reason why he should nave
left, except the telephone message
which he said he received Saturday
afternoon to call on motorcycle
agency in Los Angeles the following
day.
That this message may have been
decoy and that Morris may have
been murdered or otherwise harmed
is the belief that constantly grows
stronger here. His young wife is al
most prostrated. They have baby
10 months old.
Police in Los Angeles and other
cities have been asked to aid in the
search for the men.

TRYING TO FIND
CAUSE OF DEATHS

Los Angeles, March 12.-The coun-
ty grand jury yesterday afternoon
took up the investigation to deter
mine who was responsible for the
injection of neo salvarsan, which
caused the death of seven men last
Saturday and Sunday at the county
hospital.
DIR. Charlton was questioned at
length as to the manner in which he
prepared the solution and as to
whether he followed closely the di
rections given by DR.. Paul Erlich,
the German scientist, who invented
neo-salvarsan.
DR.. Charlton told the grand jury
he followed what is known as the
Swift-Ellis method of injection by
first drawing some of the spinal fluid
He frankly told his questioners ii
was the first time he ever had used
neo-salvarsan by the intraspinal meth
cd, but that he believed he was jus
titled in using this method because
Of the authoritative statements OF
many physicians that this method was
an improvement over the intramus-
cular or intravenous methods.
DR.. Charlton was followed by DE-.
L. d. Stookey, the pathologist, who
examined the remainder of the am
pulls containing neo-salvarsan He tes-
titled that the remaining ampuls were
in good condition and showed no
traces of decomposition.
Before the Investigations by the
grand jury is concluded all the ply
sicians who in any way were con-
nected with the case will be ques-
toned. The investigation is not, ac-
cording to Percy Harmon, deputy
district attorney, for the purpose of
bringing an Indictment against any
one person, but in the interest of
science and to prevent repetition
of any like occurrence.

the Seventeenth infantry, at Fort
Mcpherson, Ga, have been ordered
to be in readiness to proceed to La
redo and Eagle Pass to strengthen

The orders were prepared late to-

ders within half an hour after they
were prepared and it was announced
at the W. ite House that the plan
to strengthen the border patrol had
been adopted at the suggestion of
Representative Garner of Texas, who
told the president and Secretary Gar
rison that the people on the ,bor-
der had become uneasy as a result
of the Vergara incident and that in
addition to preserving the neutrality
laws, th.; presence of the troops would
do much to restore confidence on the
border.
Secretary Garrison issued this state
ment:
"To allay as far as possible the
fears of the people on the border,
the president took up with me the
question of sending some additional
troops there. AS result I have or
dered that the Seventeenth infantry
and the Ninth infantry be sent there
The Seventeenth infantry is now at
Fort Mcpherson, Ca, and the Ninth
infantry is now at Fort Logan H..
Roots, Ark, and Fort Thomas, KY.
They will be stationed at present at

still well off, for the capital account on

Boxing this year, as in the past, was
the greatest source Of revenue. The

This was almost double the amount re-
celved from any other branch of sport.

OLYMPIC GAMES
MAY CONE HERE
Baron de Coubertin Suggests
This in Preference to a
pOStpOnement.

Paris. Nov. 16.-The Olympic games
in 1916 may take place in the United
States. Baron Pierre de Coubertin, pres
ident of the international committee,
says If circumstances. material or SEN
timental, prevent their being held in
Europe in 1916, they cannot be post
poned until 1920. as suggested, but that
they might be held in America.
The war. Baron de Coubertin thinks.
will not have anything more than a
brief. temporary effect upon sport in
France. Individual records will suffer,
because such stars as Jean Bouin, the
great runner, have fallen victims TO the
great holocaust; others, no doubt, will
follow. and the younger element will
not reach their highest form for three
wears or mere, but eventually, the
Baron thinks. the war will prove TO
have been ar additional incentive to
training.
