Two Nearly Drowned in Gar

Fight for Life in the Swollen
Soldier Greek.

Harry Kadish, sos Monroe street.
and Miss Josephine Hitchcock, 1929
Jackson street, narrowly escaped
drowning Sunday afternoon when a
pleasure boat capsized in midstream in
badly swollen Soldier creek. A score
of men and boys watched the fight for
life in the sinking boat. Finally a boat
was sent to the drowning couple and
they were taken to a landing at Gar
field park.
Soldier creek was nearly bank full
Sunday afternoon when Kadish,
clerk, engaged a boat at Garfield park.
With Miss Hitchcock, he started to
row up stream. Kadish had gone per-
haps a hundred yards, when he found
the current so strong that he could not
successfully handle the boat. 1t was
then that Miss Hitchcock asked her
escort to rest and permit the boat to
drift.
"Harry's hands were blistered from
fighting the current Miss Hitchcock
said today in discussing the accident,

Government Opens Fire Against
Tobacco Merchant.

New York, May 24.-Major George

canal commission. was one of the most
important witnesses summoned to tes-
tify today at the beginning of series
of trials growing out of the transac-
tions of John Burke of Indianapolis,
deposed manager of the commissary
department of the Panama canal zone
The trials were set for hearing in fed
eral court before Judge Pollock
Burke Tried Alone.
The government had planned to
separate Burke's case from those
against the merchants with whom he
is charged with conspiring to defraud
the government. This would post
pone his trial until other cases had
been disposed of.
The first case on the calendar was
that of Jacob Salas, a tobacco mer-
chant of this city, charged with con-
tract for furnishing tobacco used in
the canal zone, in which Salas is al
legged to have paid Burke $500.
Others in Scandal.
Other merchants indicted with
Burke are Isaac Brandon of New
York, who is alleged to have paid
Burke $4,000 for the contract to sup
ply sugar; and Robert Wilcox, COM
mission merchant operating in Pan
anna, accused of paying $500 for the
privilege of supplying kerosene oil.
