RICH MAN LOST 81 YEARS BACK
FOR HIS MONEY.

Nashville, Tenn.-How man was
"lost" for thirtyseven years has besn
uncovered in 4 suit for $13,318.13 filed
by the state of Iowa against the Nash
vile Trust Company, guardian ct
Louis Laitcnberger. Iowa's claim is
for thirty seven years maintenance Of
4aitenberger in the Iowa State hos
pital for the insane at Mount Pleas
ant.
During the greater part of that
time he was being sought by relatives
and by lawyers. Less than year
ago he was found and brought back to
Nashville, for he is sole heir to 81 large
estate. Laitenberger's mind was
ghopelessly unbalanced, but the court
appointed the Nashville Trust Com
pany as his guardian, and he was
placed in a local hospital.
Now the state of Iowa, which for
thirty seven years has been boarding
and caring for Laitenberger at public
expense, seeks to collect from his es-
tate the regular charge made for
keeping the insane who are able to
pay for their maintenance in the
Mount Pleasant institution.

THREE STATES COMBINE 10
STOP AUTO THIEVES.

olOF AUIO IHlEV ES.
i Des Moines, Ia, June 1s.-Comple-
tion of an organization to combat in
terstate automobile thefts between
Iowa, Nebraska and South Dakota,
was announced by Attorney General
H. M. Havner. Details Of the plan
were discussed recently at confer
ence between State Agent o. o. Rock
Of Iowa, ]. B. Mann, commissioner of
public safety at Sioux City, Gus Hy-
ers, chief of the Nebraska state agents
and the state sheriff Of South Dakota,
Evidence has been uncovered indi-
eating the operation Of gangs Of au-
tomobile bandits between the three
states. Well equipped fences" for
stolen automobiles are under observa-
tion, and it is thought that by the CO.
operation Of the several states the
activities Of the gangs can be success
fully broken up.
The practice, according to Attorney
General Havner, is for members of the
gang to lift automobiles in Iowa, race
across the state line into Nebraska or
South Dakota, and deliver the stolen
car to some dealer who acts as q
"fence," and who alters the car for
sale or breaks it up and sells it piece
by piece.
