porter of the United States, Supreme
Court, to two checks for $25 each,
Frank Gardner, twenty years old, q
bellboy at the Republican Club, was
arrested by Detective Fishel early to-
day.
The police are looking for two
other youths said by Gardner to have

most intimate friend. Mr.: Butler is a
Republican, but graduated from
Princeton, and his intimacy with the
President began there. His father
was William Allen Butler, a noted
lawyer.

er youth obtained the blank checks
from Mr.. Buffers room in the club,
but admitted that he forged the
check, it is said. He asserted that a
third youth cashed the checks at the
club. The checks were returned from
the Riggs National Bank. in WASH
ington, marked "forgeries."
When the messenger boy appeared
with the 800 check purporting to be
drawn by Gunther, Detective Fishel
went with him to Sixth avenue, where
Gardner was waiting. Gardner's
home is at SIG Sixth avenue.
Butler, since severing his connec-
tion with the Supreme Court, has been
practicing law in Washington. He
