Failure of Cartridge to /Ex-
pIode Saves Captain Madsen
While Disarming Alleged
South Side Forger in Bank
ATTEMPT TO END OWN
LIFE BY CLERK FAILED
John F. Coad, President of
Packers National Bank, Is
Marked for Death by En-
pIoye-CIerk ConfesSes.

John F. Coad, president of the
Packers National bank, and Police
Captain Carl L. Madsen of the
South Side station, narrowly es-
capped death yesterday when Robert
J. Clark, lo years oh, 1ll4 North
Twenty-fourth street, a clerk in
the bank, attempted to shoot them
after they discovered that he had
forged $50 check and passed it.
The enraged man fired point
blank at Mr.. Coad, but the cart
ridge failed to explode and again
while Captain Madsen was endeav-
orng to disarm him his effort to
shoot the police officer was failure.
After failing in his effort to kill the
two men the young man turned the
gun on himself but the bullet was
deflected by the captain and lodged
in desk.
Captain Madsen was called to the
bank shortly after 4:30 yesterday
afternoon by Presiden. Coad and
while the two were conferring at
the private desk of Mr. Coad, it is
alleged Clark came up to the desk
and said," Yes, I forged that
check" at the same time pointing
a gun at Mr.. Coad and Captain
.Madsen, with the threat he would
kill them both.
Clark started to run out the front
door when the captain attempted to
seize him, but slipped and fell, with
Captain Madsen on top of him.
Clark is said to have pushed his gun
in the police captains face, but was
prevented from firing it. He turned
the revolver upon himself and a re-
port of the gun being discharged
was heard. The bullet missed Clark
and went into a mahogany desk.
Clark was taken to Jail where po-
lice say he made a confession that
he had forged the name of T. L.
Fonda, of the Fonda Live Stock
Commission company to check for
$50 and had passed il on a north side
grocer. After admitting the pass
ing of the check his confession was
written out and signed in presence
Of Mr.. Coad and Police Captain
Madsen.
Clark had been working at the
bank but a short time, according to
officials of the bank, and had come
to them we'll recommended. A
charge of forgery was placed against
him and he will be given prelim-
mary hearing in police court today

Decision to Withdraw Ameri-

With Departure of Americans
Japan Will Be Left Alone to
Assist Loyal Russians in
Stemming BoIsheviki.

Washington, Jan. 12.-(By The
Associated Press.)-Decision to
withdraw American troops from ST.
IBERIA on completion of the repatria-
ton of the Czecho-Slovak forces
next month, has been reached by
the American government.
The troops were sent to Siberia
iii accord with an agreement be-
tween the United States, Japan and
the entente to aid the Czechs and
protect the Siberian railroad and
Japan has been notified by the
United States of the cancellation of
that agreement in so far as it af-
tects the presence of an American
military expedition.
Commission Coming Back.
When the ~Czechs have been re-
moved, the American railroad COM
missioner, headed by John F. Stew
ems, in Russia since before the fall
of the former czar's government,
will leave Vladivostok for home and
the American soldiers under Major
General Graves will follow as soon
as transports are available. Pre-
sumably the same ships which are
to take the Czecho-S -Slovaks across
the Pacgic will be used. Two YES
sells, the President Grant and the
America are expected to leave New
York in a fw days.
With departure of the Americans,
Japan will be left alone to assist tn ,
legal Russians in their efforts to
stem the bolsheviki. The rapid
progress made by soviet forces has
been a source of apprehension in
Japan and the cabinet at Toxic has
been considering meanc of combat
ing what Japanese officials regard
as a serious menace.
May Increase Forces.
Suggestions nave been made that
Japan materially increase its force
of 10000 troops in Siberia and it
has opened negotiations with the
American government with this in
view. So far as was learned today,
however, no agreement has been
reached.
The American force numbers
about 5000 men and was sent into
Siberia last summer. Its presence
has been the subject of debate in the
senate and resulted in the adoption
of a resolution calling upon Presi-
dent Wilson for a statement of the
administrators policy. In reply,
the State department said the pur-
pose of sending the expedition was
solely to assist the Czechs and to
guard the railroad.
