Passport Forger
Again in Custody
Affairs of Richard P. Stegler.
Accuser Of Boy-Ed, Are
Being Investigated

The troubles OF Richard Peter Steg-
Ter. who on March 20, 1915, pleaded
guilty of passport frauds and was sem
fenced to sixty days in jail by Judge
Cushman in the criminal branch Of the
Federal Court are not over yet.
Stegler, whose testimony in the trial
involved Captain Boy-ed. the German
naval attache, who was later ordered
out of America, is now in custody of
the Federal authorities awaiting the
result Of IN exhaustive investigation
into his affairs since he was released
from prison.
United States District Attorney John
c. Knox ordered Steglers detention
yesterday Immediately after the latter
had been tried in Brooklyn on a charge
Of larceny. .he jury disagreeing, SIX
to six. The larceny. alleged to have
been of $1,000, was denied by Stegler
who said the plaintiff was his partner
and there was no misapplication of
funds.
Stegler's conviction of passport
fraud was after testimony had been ad-
duced showing that when he went to
the representative of the German gov
ernment asking financial assistance
that official suggested that he, Stegler
GO to England as a spy. He consented
and his apprehension was due to a
young woman.

Prepare to Live,
Practise Thrift,
Soldiers Are Told

Prepare to live. Fourteen out Of
fifteen come back!"
This was the rally call to the soldier
and sailor guests of the Professional
Woman's League at 1899 Broadway. as
sounded last night by B. C. Pond, Of
the National War Work Council of the
Young Mems Christian Association. Mr..
Ponds address was part of a nation
wide campaign of the Young Mems
Christian Association to promote thrift
among the American soldiers and sail
ors.
You fellows might follow the nat
ural instinct TO live while the living is
good" said Mr.. Pond, "but don't forget
that fourteen out of fifteen men at the
front actually come back, and when you
come back money in the bank is going
to look mighty good, especially if you
are minus an arm or an eye. Ours is
the greatest nation Of spendthrifts in
the world, but we can't afford to sus-
tain that reputation any longer.
The people at home are saving these
Gays ana the men at the 1rOnL and IN
the camps are being urged by the
Young Mems Christian Association to
think straight about their money.
We're not saying that so many men in
a company must save SO much, but we
do want to remind the men to earn,
spend, save and give wisely and judi
ciously."
Mr.. Pond bases his figures on reports
from the Allied countries as made pub
lie by Secretary Baker recently.
Encouraging reports are now coming
in from camps, Mr.. Pond said, and the
men are already setting their teeth fox

Second Draft Call
Near; Men Likely
To Move in April

WASHINGTON, March 5.-Announce-
ment of the date of the next draft is
imminent. The provost marshal gem
erals Office has prepared IAN important
announcement" which is believed to
deal with the time and method of sum
moning the second levy. The best opin-
ION is that the first of the men will
move to camp in April.
Publication Of the announcement is
held up for action by Congress- on
pending amendments to the sclectivc
service act. The most important of the
proposed changes, in the opinion of
Provost Marshal General Crowder, is
that which will give him authority to
base state quotas on the total number
Of men in Class Al, instead of the
total registered.
Preparations have been made for
summoning the remaining negroes GER
tilted under the first draft. Between
10000 and $4,000 OF these were called
but only half Of them have been sent
to the training camps. The inadvlsa-
bility OF ccntralizing these troops in
Southern camps and the fact that the
army medical authorities do not be-
leve it safe TO transfer them to colder
Northern camps during the winter, are
given as the principal reasons for the
delay
The joint resolution, already passed
by the Senate, providing for change
in the selective draft law, SO as te
base the quota OF each state on the
number Of men ia Class /, instead o.
on the population, was favorably re
ported to the House to-day by the
Military Committee, and will be actet
upon promptly.

Slayer Weeps cling
OF Wife S Indiscretion
Elmer Hupp Describes Killing Of
Intruder in His Cleveland
Home

CLEVELAND, March 5.-The story of
the staying of Charles l.. Joyce was
told late to-day in court by the con-
fessed slayer. Elmer Hupp, on trial for
second degree murder.
Hupp pictured the scene in his home
on the evening of January 10, when he
discovered Joyce there with Mrs. Hupp.
He told how he found Joyce hiding in
the attic and how he shot him four
times, killing him instantly
II didn't know what I was doing"
Hupp sobbed. From the time saw
Joyce and my wife enter her room and
saw him pull down the shades was
crazy
Hupp spent the afternoon on the wit
ness stand revealing his life story. He
was interrupted often by his own sobs.
Women spectators in the courtroom
wept during Hupp's testimony.
II thought l could live no longer"
testified Hupp, after telling of his dis
covery even two years ago of his wife's
indiscretions, his subsequent attempt
to end his life, his relenting upon the
promise of his wife that she would
never again be untrue and the prayers
Of his daughter 10 spare his life for
her sake.
He testified he walked the streets all
one night after his discovery. how he
broke down and cried night after night
for five months, and how he finally de-
cided to "begin all over again. only to
find two years later that his wife had
not kept her promise

not be tried in a New York City court
Justice Whitaker rendered decision
yesterday granting the application of
the defendants for a change of venue
to another county outside the city, on
the ground that they could not obtain
fair and unprejudiced trial here.
The indicted men are Roswell d
Cooper, Frederick H. Thompson, Albert
Manning, Louis n. Hardin. Henry J
kershaw. Harry ". Culver and John
u. Miller
Justice Whitaker said in his de-
cision: "The only question for this
court is one of conscientious belief
founded upon and produced by the
facts disclosed. If the court honestly
believes that there is probability that
jury drawn from the citizens of this
county would be prejudiced against the
defendants and the trial can be had in
a locality where such prejudice is not
likely to exist the motions should be
granted"
