PICTURE

IDENTITY

BY photographs, received today
Fargo officials identified the suspect
under arrest at Yonkers, N. Y, as
Edward Christie, wanted for the rob-
berry Of the safe at the Turkish bath
parlors in the Edwards block last
July.
No time will be wasted in securing
eXtradition papers, and sending an
officer after Christie. Christie, it is
said, will not fight extradftion, despite
the fact that he denies the charge.
There is an interesting feature in
Christie's case according to the letter
received this morning. He was arrest
ed by the Yonkers police several weeks
ago, and a number of watches and
other pieces Of jewelry found in his
possession. AS no report had been re-
ceived by the Yonkers police of such
loss, he was later released, remaining
in Yonkers.
When Chief of Police Troyer's let
ter, containing description Of the
goods stolen here, was received by the
Yonkers chief, he had little trouble
laying his hand on the man want
ed.
Henry Rademacher, who was clerk
in the parlors at the time the robbery
was committed, has written from
Dickinson, offering his services in case
he is wanted.

Wheaton Thinks the
Real Surprise Party
Will be Minnesota

Chicago, Sept. 22.-Fred e. Whea-
ton, Democratic state chairman Of
Minnesota who visited western Dem
Ocratic headquarters, declared that his
state should be put in the doubtful
list at the November election.
II predict that Minnesota will be
the surprise Of the country when the
votes are counted election night" he
said. In his Milwaukee speech Mr..
Hughes said that every bit of the re-
cent Democratic legislation should be
wiped off the books.
Il am glad that we.,now, know where
he stands on Some issue. He is
against the farm loan law, the child
labor law, the workingmen's compen-
sation law and other progressive leg
islation."
Chairman Wheaton ordered half a
carload Of Democratic campaign liter
ature shipped to Minnesota for imme-
diate distribution.
