The Blackfoot optimist. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1907-1918, 1915-04-29
SAM RICH GOT sTUNG BY SHARK

While taking a little filler in
Panama promotion it appears that
Sam j. Rich, former state immigration
commissioner, and a well known farmer
living between Pocatello and Blackfoot
got stung on the process, according to
the following from the Herald Republi
can, of April 22nd.
A corps of deputy sheriffs sat around
the lobby of the Hotel Utah Tuesday
guarding the elevators and all exits
for fear that Franklin Helm of Los
Angeles a promoter of Panama farm
lands, might not be in his room this
morning to settle a protested draft of
$4,000 with S. j. Rich Of Blackfoot Ida
no, former immigration commissioner
Of the Gem state.
Mr.. Helm went to Blackfoot short
time ago to interest Mr.. Rich and
others in that vicinity in Panama farm
lands. He carried with him letters of
introduction and recommendation from
men of high standing both in Salt Lake
and Los Angeles. The names of prom
inent New Workers also figured in the
letters.
Mr.. Helm presented draft for $4,000
to Mr.. Rich and as an accommodation
asked him if he would indorse the draft
and went with Mr.. Helm to Black foot
bank where it was cashed. The draft
was drawn on l.. R. Bates, the president
Of a New York bank, the name of which
could not be learned last night. When
the draft reached New York payment
was refused and it was protested. Mr..
Rich has been after Mr.. Helm to make
the draft good, and he was given until
yesterday morning. He did not comply
yesterday and he was granted further
The Blackfoot optimist. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1907-1918, 1915-04-29

extension until. today at, noon.
Last night when the ultimatum was
delivered, Mr.. Rich caused John Bur-
bidge, chief deputy sheriff, and Joseph
Raleigh to be stationed in the Utah
lobby to watch the movements of Mr..
Helm. Sheriff John Corless was in the
lobby for two hours in the early part
of the evening. So secret were the
movements in regard to the watch over
Mr.. Helm that the representatives from
the sheriff's office declared they were
only out seeing the sights of the city.
Advices from BlackfOot last night
stated that Mr.. Rich would not discuss
the matter of Mr.. Helm and the $4,000
draft. 1t is asserted that the Panama
promoter has been light of cash for a
few weeks and it is alleged he gave at
least one check in Salt Lake which
was made good later. He has been
operating in Bingham for a time and
has been at the Hotel Utah, off and
on, for the last two months.

FORMAL REQUEST FOR INDEMNITY ON VIM. FRYE

WASHINGTON. April l.-Indemni. ty for iull value of the American ship Nm. P Frye, destroyed at sea by the German converted cruiser Prinz Eitel Friederich, has been formally request ed from Germany by the United States. No representations were made concerning fits cargo since 1t was es- tablished after an investigation by the State Department that it was sold enroute and was British owned at the time of sinking.
 Acting Secretary Lansing announc- ed that a note on the subject had been sent to Ambassador Gerard for presen tation to the foreign office at Berlin. Pending its receipt the Berlin docu- ment was not made public but it was described officially as a recital of the facts and presentation of the claim for damages on behalf of the owners of the vessel The American govern ment contends in the note that the commander of the Prinz Eitel was not warranted in destroying the Frye be- cause lt could not lawfully have been condemned as a prize should it have been taken to the prize court The destination of the cargo was to a pri- yate firm in England the American government learned, and its wheat could not therefore have been consid- cred contraband. It is the general be- lief of officials that the matter will be settled without difficulty as soon as a full report of the affair, mailed by the German embassy here, has reach ed Berlin lt is expected to reach thech there week.
