days ago was arrested in Omaha,

years before becoming involved in
the difficulty he worked on farms in
the vicinity of Hitchcock. He left
the state recently and nothing was
thought of 1t until some money vas
missed at a place where he had been
a short time before. Police officers
at once commenced a search for the
missing man.
The man for whom Knapp had
been working conducted a private In
vestigation OF his own, with the re-
suit that a forged check for $500 was
found among the farmers Cancelled
checks. Then the search for Knapp
was prosecuted with renewed vigor,
with the result that he was traced TO
Omaha and arrested there.

waived extradition proceedings. He
was taken into custody in Omaha

HAD NO INTENTION
Of EVAD|NC DRAFT
EXPLAINS K|LLEEN

Edward J. Killeen whose arrest on
charge of evading the draft was ef-
fected on Saturday. yesterday made a
statement of the case and of his move
ments since before the passage of the
selective draft law. He said that at
the time the law went into effect he
was in Los Angeles at school. Finding
that he was within the draft age he
came home TO register so that if
drafted and called he could go out
with the boys from Phoenix. He was
among the first registered, having ap-
peared at half past eight o'clock on
the morning of registration.
\ long time having elapsed between
the registration and the call for physi-
cal examination, he tried to enlist in
the marines and was rejected for ply
steal disability. He was given a Ger
tificate of his application for enlist
ment in which it was certified that
he had 'patriotically offered his ser
vices" This certificate bears the date
Of July u, 1917. He said that the Of
ficer who examined him for the mar
ines assured him that he could not pass
any examination for military service.
Soon after that he had an attractive
offer from a mining company operat-
ing in the interior of Mexico. He was
TO receive a salary of $3.50 a month,
gold and commission of ten per cent.
lie went to Mexico but before entering
the service of the mining company he
called upon the American consul at
Guaymas, Frederick Simpich to regis
ter as an American citizen. The con-
sui asked him if he had registered for
the selective draft and he replied that
he had and exhibited his registration
card, also his certificate from the eX-

aminer of the marine service. Sim
pich told him that it would be proper
for him to enter the service of the
mining company and he added, "Pll
keep you posted"
Evidently no information came to
the consul; at any rate Killeen heard
no more from him. Mail in that part
o fthe country is uncertain at the best.
Early in September ne received letter
from his father urging him to return.
to Phoenix at once or he would be
classified as a Stacker He hurried to
the border and there met the United
States immigration officer who adj
vised him to register there under the
new rules. He was given a question
naire which he filled out, offering no
cause for exemption, but he was put in
a deferred class.
The chairman of the local board
he said. told him that he could then
return to Mexico and he would be in
formed if he were needed. In order
then to go back he had to have pass
port and he made application at once
to the state department. Some cor
respondence ensued and at length the
passport signed by Secretary Lansing
arrived and Mr.. Killeen returned to
Mexico.
He supposed then the incident was
ended and so, without any apprehen-
sion he made arrangements to visit
his parents here for the holidays. He
secured a leave of absence for ten days
and reached Phoenix on the day before
Christmas. His arrest took place or
Saturday He furnished bond in the
sum of $1,000 for his appearance fol
