ISSUE WARNING AGAINST
BOGUS SOLICITORS

Eugene Carroll, manager of the
Red Cross campaign, and Secretary
A. L. Matter of the local committee
today issued a warning against
pseudo Red Cross solicitors and COL
lectors. They urged that no money
be given to any solicitors, save
well-known and responsible busi-
ness men who have been active in
tho recent campaign, and that no
payments on subscriptions be made
to any one except A. J. Davis of the
First National bank, treasurer of
the local committee. Soliciting for
the Red Cross, so far as the present
campaign is s--concerned, has prac-
tically ceased" said Secretary Mat
ter this noon. 'lt will be we'll for
every person who desires to con-
tribute to the Red Cross to give his
or her contribution to someone they
know personally. Headquarters
will be closed today but subserip-
ton payments may be made at the
bank"

With the close of the Red Cross
last night Butte again
acquitted itself with distinction by
the liberality of its response to an
appeal to its patriotism. When the
campaign closed at 10 o'clock,
headquarters reported subscrip-
tions totalling Sl70,003.30 for the
five days to state headquarters in
Helena. In addition to this
amount a number of subscriptions
were received today and benefits
to be given by the Broadway
theater, the Walkervillc theater
and the Butte Players club to-
gether with lodge donations and
individual donations yet to be re-
ported from subscription blanks
which are still out will bring this
city's total very close to the
lSl75,000 mark.
The close of the campaign last
night was the occasion of jubilee at
headquarters in the Montana Power
building. An orchestra furnished the
music during the evening and when
the final result of the campaign was
announced it was met with a cheer.
. Reports OF team captains and other
. workers at 10 o'clock brought the total
to figure close to the $4,000 mark.
Team captains and members then
brought the amount up to $40, 30
h with additional subscriptions from
their own pockets.

Chief Murphy made an investiga-

that he had been a guest of Jailer

and located his man. Johnston said
he didn't want to go home because he
was afraid.
