GREEK FACING
new CHARGES
Petrellis Arrested on InfOrma-
tion Filed by Solicitor Fisher
Yesterday
BRIBERY IN LIQUOR CASE
Deputy Said to Have Been Of
fered Money if he Would
Steal the Evidence

George Petrellis was arrested yes
terday morning upon information fill
ed by Solicitor Fisher charged with
bribery in connection with the evidence
brought out during the trial of Pc
trellis on charges of selling whiskey.
He made bond of $500 later and was
released from custody The case will
come up during the March term of
court.
Petrellis was recently arrested by
Sheriff Whitaker and deputies and
charged with having and selling whis-
key. AT the time of the raid some of
the whiskey was sold to sheriffs depu-
ties and this was held as evidence
for the trial which was to be held
later.
Shortly after being out on bond it is
alleged that Peanut" George wanted
to obtain the evidence that was held
IN the sheriff's office and which would
be produced against him at his trial.
Petrellis, it is said, sent for. Deputy
Sheriff Bailey and offered him a sum
of money if the deputy would steal
the evidence some time during the
absence of the jailer and deliver it to
him. When it was delivered Peanut
George was to have paid the money
over at that time.
Deputy Bailey went to Jailer Brox-
ton with this information and told
him of the proposition, and told MIR.
Broxton that Peanut" George would
be willing to give the jailor as much
as $50 for the evidence. This hap
pened about Jan. IL, according to Mr..
Broxton. About a week later Deputy
Bailey told Mr.. Broxton that Peanut"
George would give as much as 500 for
the two bottles held as evidence
against him. Mr.. BroXton notified
the sheriff, who in turn notified Mr..
Fisher. After consultation between
these two officials it was decided to
permit Mr.. Broxton and Deputy Bailey
to offer two fake bottles, labelled and
otherwise looking like the same bot
ties sold to Petrellis, to see whether or
his part of the proposition.
In the county building there is $50
in bills and this was given in exchange
for the two bottles of shinny, it is
said, by Peanut" George. This will
be produced at the time of the trial.
After the attempt bribery came to
light, Mr.. Bailey was retained on the
force for about a week, working on a
commission. He was released from
the force following that and when ask
ed to his whereabouts parties in the
sheriff's office said that they hod not
kept up with his movements following
his separation from the force. He had
come to the force about a month be-
fore the Petrellis arrest.

Ignomy of ExtraditiOn

Berlin, Feb. 6.-FieId Marshal Won
BueIow told the LollaI Anzeiger today
that Germans whose names are on the
list of those whose eXtradition is de-
manded by the allies, "only did their
duty to the fatherland, and that ex-
tradition was ignomy to which no
German could voluntarily submit"
The field marshal declared he would
never place himself at the disposal of
the entente nations.
1t is understood meetings of army
and navy commanders were held on
January 1 and it was unanimously con-
cluded that evasion of the extradi-
ton because of the Versailles treaty
was entirely compatible with German
honor and that no one must voluntari-
.lv surrender. Legal objections should
be lodged against orders for the arrest
of anv of the commanders, it was de-
cided at these meetings. The govern
ment has issued to the press proc
Iamation reiterating its opposition to
the extradition demand, and declaring
If cannot be fulfilled by this or any
other government.
A member of the government Is
quoted by the press as saying:
"rThe government is still endeavorlng
