INDICTMENT Of
LOUIS CS|PO IS
NO[LE PRESSED

After two years of prosecution for
perjury, during which time he was
convicted on that charge in the
somerset Court of Quarter Sessions
and fined $4,000, and the conviction
later set aside in the supreme court,
Louis Csipo, a steamship and insur.
ance agent at AT State street. was
this morning discharged from his bail
bond and the indictment against him
tor perjury was nolle pressed by
Judge Daniel H. Beekman, of the
Somerset court, at the request of
Prosecutor F. A. Pope.
BY the decision OF the supreme
court rendered last summer the case
was sent back to the lower court for
a retrial. The opinion of the supreme
court set forth that the indictment
found against Csipo was voluminous
and set up alleged perjured state
ments at district court trial. The
opinion proceeded to set forth that
the trial court undertook to extract
from the Indictment various alleged
perjured statements and instructed
the jury in the case that if one was
made the man should be convicted.
The supreme court held that this was
correct If the perjury charged had
been correctly epitomized but held
that this had not been done.
Inability to Convict.
Prosecutor Pope gave as his rea-
sons for abandoning the prosecution
of Mr.. Csipo his inability to convict
at new trial. He set forth that
number of witnesses who appeared ar
the first trial had either been dis
credited by being sent to states
prison or had left the reach of the
authorities. Some of the witnesses
who appeared against Csipo were AL
pert Goldfnger, now serving a term
IN the penitentiary for perjury, who
formerly did q foreign exchange
and steamship agency business here;
Armin Tomaschef, another banker.
VINO 1t is alleged, absconded more
than year ago with moneys of his
clients and who has never reappear-
ed In this city, and Hermann Hollan-
der, of South River. who was tried |
-hree times In this county, convicted |
vice and fined once for contempt of |
court for an alleged effort to infu-
ence juror.
Joseph E. Stricken represented Mr..
%oAPO AiobJ Inc 6tdEL Oh LD6 DrOSPpn-
lon' ana maintained from the begin
''rg that there was conspiracy on
he part of some to frame up'' his
'lient, which was always the conten-
ION of Mr.. Csipo himself.
The charge OF perjury grew out of
trial held In the district court OF
'omerville before Judge Runyon
day 8, 1912. Csipo was plaintiT
gainst Joseph Bartha, claiming the
efendant owed him a balance ofl
276, following business transac-
lon. Bartha claimed that he was
ompelled to pay Mr.. Csipo 500 not

GETS OFFICIAL
REPORT OF Loss
Of SUBMARINE
"ecial 6y Uasted Press Wire.

N"e"}al by United Press Wfrc-
Washington, March 26-The navy
department received an official report
from Honolulu today which caused
grave apprehension concerning the
fate of submarine F-4. Officials did
not entirely give up hope. The re-
port was from Commander Smith, OF
the First submarine division at Hon
olulu. 1t said:
"a left tender for sui srged
run %. 8 a. M, failed return"
Admiral Taylor, of the bureau Of
construction, in conference with Sec
retary Daniels, explained that the
F-4 was equipped with hooks outside
the hull which tender might be able
to reach with graphing chains, bring
ing the boat to the surface If 1t
could locate the craft. The lack of
ability to locate the submarine was
thought one of the worst features of
the situation inasmuch as the vessel
was furnished with marker buoy
which could be released outside the
craft and with pounding bells. Had
not some grave mishap occurred 1t
was believed certain the crew would
have used one device or another.

Letter From the Southwestern
Missouri Miller Club.

Mr.. Farmer; For several years
Hessian Fly has caused more or
less damage to the wheat crop in
your vicinity. The damage is nat
urally increased each succeeding
year, for the reason the crop of
Hessian Fly becomes greater with
each succeeding year. 1t is evil.
dent the wheat prospects in your
vicinity were fine early this spring.
Today we are told by the Govern
mental Departments that the out.
turn will average about 90 per
cent of a crop That is to say, a
farmer who would nave raiaed 1000
bushels OF wheat, had the early
prospects been maintained, will
average 600 bushe,s-the Hessian
Fly having destroyed the balance.
With such a swarm of Hessian
Flies in your vicinity the next
crop of wheat will be infested to a
much greater extent than was the
one now being harvested, unless
the fly is exterminated. After ex-
haustive experiments and a large
expenditure of money, the Federal
Agricultural Depar tment and the
several States agricultural depart
ments have assured themselves
farmers can extermiuate Hessian
Fly. Before submitting to farm
ers definite plans of determination
the Federal and States depart
ments established numerous ex
perimental farms which were To-
Gated in the various sections Of
the country where environments
of soil, climate, ETC., were of every
variety. These farms have been
conducted for years for the pur-
pose of studying the Hessian Fly,
to the end that farmers who could
not afford the experiment might
be just as correctly informed of the
best manner of controlling the Fly
as though the farmer had learned
the method by his own efforts. In
short, the Government has done
the pioneering, and after that has
demonstrated beyond the shadow
of doubt that they have found
the easiest and only certain plan
TO exterminate the Hessian Fly, it
asks the farmers of this country
to act upon its suggestion. What
do these experts say?
