BANKRUPTCY STATUTE SAT- E.
GUARDS CREDITORS IN EVERY
RESPECT BUT ONE.
PROSPECTIVE HEIRS
HAVE SOME ADVANTAGE
Clerk Macarthur Explains Statute and
Its Ultimate Effeet-Cases Of At
tempted Dishonesty Severely Pun
ished-Just Distribution Of Assets
Made Possible.

Des Moines. Aug. 1S.-Gone are the
days when gossip can thrive on bank
ruptcy cases. No longer are the citi-
zens who go into bankruptcy to have
the cloud of dishonesty hanging over
them. They say that he has a neat
fortune slowed away some place is a
remark with which the gosSips can not
stir interest and suspicion among those
who are informed. ....
The bankruptcy law discourages
dishonest practices and promotes the
exact truth in the proceedings which
it governs. according to William G.
Macarthur, clerk in the United States
district court. Every creditor in a
bankruptcy case is notified thirty
days before a hearing so that he may
investigate the financial status of the
man or woman seeking bankruptcy.
He can present any information he
has that indicates dishonesty on the
part of the person seeking relief in
the bankruptcy court. If the charges
are true, or If there is strong sus-
picion, the privilege of bankruptcy is
denied by the court. Moreover there
IS the chance that jail sentence
awaits the man who attempted TO de-
fraud This condition does not tempt
the dishonest man 10 use the bank
ruptcy court for his operations.
Purpose Of Law.
The first purpose OF the bankrupt
cy law is to insure just distribution OF
the assets of a man who is bankrupt.
is the observation of Chief Justice
Miller Of the supreme court. The sec
ond object is to give a man an oppor-
tunity TO start anew after having a
run Of hard luck.
According to Clerk Macarthur. the
bankruptcy cases run about $50 cases
a year in this district. Most Of these
are tenant farmers who sign up leases
for more than they can manage when
the crop has been overestimated Cases
of men in actual business. failing in
Iowa, are rare he asserts.
Attempted Dishonesty
Attempted dishonesty in bankruptcy
proceedings are so rare now in Iowa
that they are we'll remembered among
the United States court clerks.

BOY MYSTERIOUSLY
INJURED ON BRIDGE
Young Son Of Late Chief Stats
tician King Believed Victim
Of Automobile.

While Donald King. young son OF
the late William A. King. chief sta
tistician OF the Census Bureau, lies
unconscious at the Emergency Hos
pital. the police are conducting an
investigation on the theory that the
boy was run over by an automobile
whose driver did not stop to aid the
lad
One thing that leads the police to
believe the boy was in an automobile
accident is battered roller skate
which has the appearance of being
twisted by sudden contact with a
passing vehicle. This is the only
clue so far in the hands of the police
which supports their theory of the ac-
cident Young King is suffering from
a fracture OF the hip and other In.
juries and cannot yet give an account
Of how he was hurt. The boy. how
ever. is expected to recover. He was
found in an unconscious condition at
the west end of the new O street
bridge last night
Until he Is better able to talk, tho
police are working on the fact that the
boy left his home, 2917 = street, about
6 o'clock last night for a downtown
skating rink. He planned to skate to
the place. At 7:15 o'clock Walter john
son. colored, Of 25ls Q street. found him
of the Union Garage, who chanced to
be passing, took the injured lad into
his machine and drove to Emergency
Hospital.
The fact that young King wore his
skates when he left home, and did not
have them when he arrived at the
hospital gave rise to the belief that
he had been robbed while he lay un-
conscious Later, however. Walter
Johnson, who found him, brought the
skates to the station. Tho heel plate
OF one skate was badly bent.

every hiding place in these small
apartments produced an armed man!
Without doubt the apache band had
laid siege to Kitty Gray's apartments,
and with no intent Of failure,
The high voice of one of the apaches
was first. you, all OF you, qulck--I
have no time to trlae with you. I
want the coin-which Of you has IT."
The apache's gaze turned from
Count Sachlo's face to that of Count
Frederick, and then again from Kitty
to Roleau. But none OF these made
answer Not one made him sure as to
any specific guess.
"What, you refuse-you do not have
tall of you? ! know as stand here
the coin is In this room at this mo-
ment-some one of you has lit is
worth your life not to own up to
that"
Kittys eyes despairlngly sought
those Of Roleau, but the lighting face
of that belligerent showed no sign Of
war Count Frederick looked at her,
anxiety upon his face, but made no
sign witch could catch her attention.
He was not indeed entirely sure that
she had the coin in her possession.
Search them all, men," came the
quick order of the rat-faced apache,
who was now in charge OF this situa-
ton. I'VE must hurry Be careful
now"
The men who had covered the prs-
oners with their weapons now sent
forward some Of their number to car
ry out these orders. AS they advanced
Roleau sprang toward them, but was
held back by the hand of the captain
of gendarmes.
"Quletl" said the latter, Would
you have some of US killed? This
man wants only o bit of coin. In the
name of heaven. to give that is cheap
or than to get killed."
Roleau fell back, and the work Of
the searcners went on. But IL was
not money that the apaches sought.
They took little count Of the contents
of the pockets which they ransacked.
They turned at last to Kitty, and the
swift flush on her face kindled their
eyes with a suspicion Of some guilty
knowledge on her part She had not
had time since palming the piece Of
coin at the time of the original search
to conceal it elsewhere than in her
handbag. 1t was foregone conclu
sion that 1t would be found there. The
thieves gave exultant ordinations
when at length they saw the fruit of
their eiforts-the piece Of broken
coin. The man who searched Kittys

Left presently alone, for time the
uncongenial party sat or stood about
as best they might moodily awaiting
the issue of the chiefs errand.
Kitty felt her eyes turning again
and again to the grave face Of Count
Frederick himself, whose own glances
were averted from her. How calm he
seemed, how strong, how resourceful
these thoughts came to her mind.
Without him now In this last desperate
coil Of circumstances regarding the
Gretzhoffen coin, where would she
be? What hope would she dare en-.
terrain?
Count sachlo paced about or sat,
head In hand, brooding over the deli
cate nature Of his own situation.
OF all those thus strangely gathered
here only one seemed to feel anything
but suspicion or despair!--the apache
leader, who remained under guard in
the hail. somewhat apart from the
others.
A considerable time had elapsed,
how long none Of these might have
said, when the air was split by sud
