HANDS Of
OFFICERS
Unwed Wife Declare She
Will Stand by Companion
Till the Last; Serious
Charge Lodged Against
Geo. McClue.

Charged with registering at the
Fourth Street ROOming house as man
and wife and at the same time hav-
ing a wife and 5-year-old baby living
in San Pedro, George E. McClue was
taken into custody and lodged in the
county Jail last night. Mrs. Ruby
kruse. age %. a vivacious brunette,
is the other party in the case and
today declared she would remain in
FL Centre until the affair is straight
ened out.
McClue and his brother and Mrs.
Kruse were employed on the Ellsworth
ranch north Of Seeley, and Mrs. Kruse
was cooking for them. According to
the story told by the girl to the police
she was lonely, she says, and her hus-
band had died some time ago, leaving
a 4-year-old boy, "Jerry" in her care
The man also was without friends anG
the friendship soon ripened into love,
the couple state. Mrs. Kruse stated
that McClue told her he was married
and that he was seeking a divorce. As
soon as it was granted they were to be
married.
The pair, it is said, came to Imperial
Valley from Delano, Cal. IL miles
north of Bakersfield. about two months
ago. They stopped in Los Angeles be-
fore coming to the valley. There they
also registered as man and wife, they
admitted. -'n
The woman, who undoubtedly will
be retained by the state as chief wit
ness, stated that she would not appear
against the man and that if he is
punished she will put Jerry in home.
go to work and wait until he is free
and then return to him-but on the
other hand, she said if the court will
dismiss the case she will live by herself
until he has been given a divorce and
then they will be married legally.
1t was explained to her by the Of
ticers that the matter was entirely out
of her hands and as the offense is
criminal and punishable by imprison-
ment, her only choice is to do as the
court sees best.
Her mother arrived from Delano
yesterday and has taken her under her
care.
The owner of the Ellsworth ranch
stated this afternoon he would furnish
bond for McClue as he has contracted
to work for him for six months and
he is needed on the ranch.
McClue refused to give out a state
ment.
The arrest was made by Deputy
Sheriff Sam Griffin, Chief Thomas
Oliver and Deputy Slaughter.

 Events of the week have been many and varied and the word irregular only faintIy describes the situation. Chief among the events have been further ef- forts to restrict credits and deflate the much extended financial situation, the featuring of so- called cut price sales at retail, the further quieting down of wholesale and jobbing business pending a clearer view of the effects on gen. eraI merchandising of the retailers ef- forts to reduce unwieldy stocks, created by past free buying and bad weather, the active intervention of the interstate commerce commission to break the strangling congestion on the country $ transportation lines, further liduida- ton on securities, especially bonds, for which it is demonstrated there exists demand at @ price and finally 8 rather better crop situation which needs only good weather to become a fair to good prospect.

 It was commonly believed that pur- chases by the treasury department con- tributed measurably towards today s rebound of war flotations, but bond dealers asserted much of the buying to private investors attracted by the un- usually high interest returns.
 General credit monetary conditions manifested no symptoms of relaxing from their high tension, but from varl- ous quarters came further assurances that the period of readjustment' had already borne fruit. Considerable call money was loaned at per cent.
 The price cutting campaign pro- ceeded with unabated vigor, according to reports received by foremost finan- cial and mercantile intersts, and the effect of this increased deflation is eX- pected to strengthen the bank posi- tions at centers where reserves have shown greatest declines.
