Former Caruthersyille POstmas-
ter Indicting For Violation of
Civil Service Law.

Robert G. Grow, the former post
master at Charlottesville, who disap-
peared from his home in December,
1914, and only three weeks ago was
reunited with his family after having
obtained his release from the United
States army, yesterday was in the
Cape to give bond before United
States Commissioner Rage on an in
dictment returned against him last
October by the Federal Grand Jury.
Crow arrived alone in the Cape on
the afternoon train from the south and
went directly to Mayor kage's office,
where he announced he wished to give
bond.
Deputy U. S. Marshal George c.
Orchard called upon Grow several days
ago at his home in Charlottesville to
accompany him to the Cape to have
the bond fixed. Grow, at that time,
explained that he had arranged bond
in St. Louis when on his way home.
He subsequently received a letter
from United States Attorney Arthur
l.. Oliver advising him to arrange a
bond before Rage also. The bond OBJ
tanned before Rage was for $1,000 and
was signed for Crow by Luther \.
Swinney of Charlottesville.
Crow was indicted by the Federal
Grand Jury in connection with a viola
ton of the civil service code when he
became implicated in changing a set
of examination papers for Il member
of his family who was seeking to get
a position with the government.
The correct answers 10 the questions
in the competitive examination were
written into the examination paper
after the examination had been held.
The change in the papers was discOv-
cred by the Inspector who made tn"
examination. and who remembered the
order in which he had arranged the
papers to be read.
When the change WAS made this
order was confused and an invcstiga-
ton followed that led TO the indict-
ment of the two men.
The case probably will be tried be-
fore the April term Of the United
States District Court which will con-

Guest Scratch
Hotel Steps In
Escaping Fire
Manager Allen of Riverview
Didn't Forget To Caution
AS Trunks Bumped Down
Stairs Few Feet Ahead of
Flames.

The fire that swept away the River
view and Terminal hotels, as we'll as
the Houck building at Broadway and
Main street, last Wednesday morning
was not without it's humorous sit
uatiOns.
Guests of the late Riverview who
made their escape with their personal
belongings tell good story on Man
ager f. c. Allen, of an incident that
occurred in the rush of the quick get
away from the flames.
r. H. "Scrappy" Ruehmann had
dumped most of his clothing and per-
sonal knick-knacks into his trunk,
jumped on the lid to force it down
and grabbed the rest of his best cloth
ing from his wardrobe and was carry
ing it on his arm, as he made his exit.
In order to expedite matters,
"Scrappy" seized his trunk by one
handle and gallOped down the hall to
the staircase dragging it after him,
The flames at that time were eating
their way through the window Of his
room and it was a case of pushency
if there ever was one.
"Scrappy's' method of escape made
2 profound impression upon other
bOarders.
As he tore down the stairway, lead
ing his faithful trunk after him, the
rear end of the travelling box bumped
and thumped on The stairs on the way
down.
Manager Allen paused in the lobby
Of the hotel and Immediately after
Ruehmann had dashed past him with
his property, Jack Hobbs followed in
the wake Of the scrap iron dealer.
He had adopted Ruehmann's manner
of coaXing the trunk along and his
burden bumped and smashed its way
unceremoniousIy down the main stair
case Of the hotel.
Hi, there" shouted Manager Allen
in shrill, geraious tone. "For the
love Of Mike don't scour and scratch
uU those steps like that"
