Two Indictments
Found Against
Bazaar Director

Indictments charging petty laceny
and forgery in the .hiri degree were
found yesterday against orc Of he di-
rectors Of the Army and Navy Bazaar
recently held in GranI Central Palace.
The true bills will probably be filed
to-day and bench warrant served on
the defendant. 1t is understood that
the alleged larceny consisted of the
substitution for the names on the
checks for small amounts OF the names
Of two friends of the indicted pro-
moter.
District Attorney Swami made a final
demand yesterday on George f. Swee-
ney, of 1903 Fifth Avenue, chief COL
lector Of advertisements and funds. for
all moneys representing his commits
sions on contributions to the bazaar
as distinguished from advertisements.
Mr.. Swami says this may amount to
$4,000. Sweeney was present in the
prosecutors office, accompanied ny his
counsel, John j. Jordan and Willard H..
Ellison, of 1l5 Broadway. They issued
statement in which they pointed out
that Sweeney got the contract for di-
recting the bazaar by a competitive bid
and that he had a contract for so per
cent commissions from advertisements,
subscriptions and contributions They
also declared that he had delivered
every cent he raised to Edward s..
Moore. treasurer, By checks, and his
compensation, with the exception of
$4,000 still due him, was paid TO him
by checks drawn by Edward s. Moore
and countersigned by Waldemar II. f.
y. de Billie, an executive director.
The prosecutor has been deluged with
letters from all sorts of individuals and
business firms that have been solicited
by mail for contributions to numerous
patriotic and military charitable propa-
gandas. Among these was letter
which directed his attention TO Milo 7.
Bogard. executive director of the
League Of Loyal Americans" of 10
Broadway, organized last May.
Bogard was found by detectives and
identified by means of his picture, No
1888, in the Rogues' Gallery at head
quarters, where he is listed as an
"embezzler." Bogard admitted a prison
record in Clay county, ILL.,, and said
he had been fined $50 for running a
lottery in Brooklyn in 1911. He said
his business was TO spread the spirit
of patriotism" b. organizing societies
and by publishing book entitled
America: the Symbol of Intending
Opportunity" He insisted that he had
only collected $500 and had been
forced to shut up shop.
Another case brought to Mr.. Swanns
attention was that of a list Regiment
benefit held in the Hppodrome in Sep
TENDER under X. X. Forsyth and Walter
+. Fisk, of 200 Fifth Avenue. Subpenas
were issued calling for the books of the
firm.
Mrs. William Cummings Story, past
president of the Daughters of the
American Revolution, asked Mr.. Swami
TO investigate the accounts of the
Emergency League Relief Fund, which
gave a fair at the Waldorf-Astoria on
November Is and which. il is said. is
planning to give a benefit at the Hip
podrome next Sunday.

point that the PROSECUTOR had left I'M
touched.
when Mrs. De Saulles called you
on the telephone" asked the lawyer,
"whom did she first mention-Mr. De

valet hurried back from the telephone.
Ward, the next witness up, had been
sworn when Justice Manning ad-
journcd court until tomorrow morn
irg.
Mrs. De Saulles exchanged a smile
and n word with Hadamek as he was
leaving the courtroom. Perhaps she
had thanked him for the testimony
which may mean her salvation. His
grave response was, VERY good,

Grey's
Answers

Dear Miss Grey: l want to
answer "A Reader" straight
out from the shoulder. Any
one who will write like that Is
very narrow minded.
Surprising the Red Cross did
sell the socks, 1t shows the
people did not send in enough
cash at the time to finance
things. The money they
brought In probably did as much
good as the socks themselves
would do.
Altho we like to see our own
articles go thru we never stop
to consider that those particu-
lar articles might have been
damaged in a way so that they
were not fit for the purpose in
tended.
Money derived from such
sales is not used for any pri-
vate or selfish purpose. l. am
sending socks to France and IL
those in authority see fit to sell
them for a better purpose, I
say amen-I have done the best
l can.
About charity at home. There
is nobody at home starving or
naked, nor suffering the pangs
of lonesomeness and homesick-
ness like the boys in France. l
send three leading magazines
each month to soldier Some
where in France" OF course
they have lots of work and
training but they have lots of
time to read also and they get
so lonesome and homesick.
I do not belong to the Red
Cross, but / have two brothers
in France and / feel like fight

BAUDETTE TO HAVE
BRANCH OF PUBLIC
SAFETY COMMISSION
(Baudette Region)

A county branch of the Minnesota
Safety commission will be organized
at Baudette on the evening of De-
cember II, when delegates from ev-
cry town as far as 157 will gather
in the board of trade rooms. The
matter has been placed in the hands
of John Norris of Williams, who has
received word that the Bemidji
branch is too far away to be of serv-
ice to this section.
Arrangement shave been made to
get speaker from St. Paul, and G..
R. Middleton and other local speak
ers will address the gathering. 1t
is compulsory for each township to
send a delegate, so that there will
be big crowd present. 1t has been
felt for some time that branch of
this commission is necessary, to take
care of the cases where serious ut
terances are made, in labor matters
and in other ways. The general pub
lie is invited to the meeting.
This body will also have charge Of
the liquor question. No trouble is
expected, but rumors of blind pigs
and bootleggers in the little villages
near Baudette have been prevalent,
and some trouble has already been
experienced.

Chilean HeiresS Freed By
Jury For Staying Husband

Mineola, N. Y, Dec st re-
quired but one hour and 43 min
utes for jury in supreme court here
Saturday night to reach verdict of
not guilty in the trial of Mrs. Blanca
De Saulles for the murder of her
divorced husband, John L. De Saul
les, former Yale football star and
club man, at his home near West
bury, Long Island, the night of Aug.
3.
In the verdict no reference what
ever was made to insanity. 1t was
a plea of temporary loss of ac-
countability which formed the basis
of the defendants case.
Mrs. De Saulles, who had main
tained an air of extreme self posses
sion throughout the two weeks of
the trial, received the verdict smil-
ingly. She shook hands with each
of the jurors as they left the box and
to each gave nod of appreciation.

WAR STAMP TAXES
MAKE DEBUT IN CITY

Bemidji is now dealing with the
war tax problem, the new law going
into effect Saturday. The stamps
may be obtained at the postoffice,
Postmaster Ritchie having received
his supply.
The new law requires the placing
of stamps of taxation on parcel post
packages, drafts and checks of more
than $1OO, real estate conveyances,
etc, but does not apply to "sight"
checks. These are the checks in
common daily ues. 1t is not neces-
sary to stamp them or pay any tax
on their issuance. The tax on checks
applies only to those that are post
dated. For instance, if a check is
issued and dated today and the per-
son issuing it should write some
where in the body "this check is not
payable until December 49," or some
such date in the future, it then
would be subject to the tax and
would have to carry stamp.

"ABSENT BROTHERS"

Beautiful and impressive were the
annual memorial services of the Be-
midi lodge, No. 1862, B. P. o. E.,
Sunday afternoon in the Elko thea
ter, and the program was largely
attended by members Of the antlered
tribe and friends of the lodge and
"absent brothers," The theater held
a large audience.
F. S. Lycan, past exalted ruler,
presided and James j. Quigley Of st.
Cloud delived the address. A pretty
feature was the lighted tapers for
each of the "absent brothers," the
lights being extinguished as feat
ure of the ceremonies.
Music and singing enhanced the
program and the close was the song
"Star Spangled Banner by the en-
tire assemblage.
