COX TURNS HEAVY GUNS ON c. O. P CAMPAIGN
2 Inches Rain
In 80 Minutes
Tears Paving

What was said by old timers to
have been the heaviest rainfall ever
seen here fell from about 1 to / 80
o'clock Saturday afternoon. Accord
ing to the report of j. NJ. Bryan, gov
ernment observer, a total of 2.O5
inches fell in slightly less than 30
minutes, constituting the heaviest
rainfall ever recorded by him.
AS a result of the downpour con-
siderable damage was done about
the city, principally to pavements
The greatest damage resulted on
South Jackson street, where praeti-
cally all of the wooden blocks with
which the street is paved, in front
of the home of j. c. Clark and other
adjoining property on both sides of
the street, were torn up completely
by the flood waters which poured
down the hills from three directions,
forming a torrent. After the water
had subsided the blocks were picked
up by street hands scattered over
several nearby yards, and were piled
up at the street curbing where they
may be again relaid. In the mean
time South Jackson street, from
Church to Finn, is closed to traffic.
On North Cotton avenue, near the
Coca-Cola Bottling plant, the torrent
tore up patches of bricks which con-
stitute a section of paving. Damage
to paving elsewhere from overfowing
and the deposit of mud and sand
took place, and dirt streets were
badly cut.
No reports of serious crop dam
age had reached the city last even
ing from the country.

PONzI'S CRASH
TAKESANOTHER
CONCERN DOWN
Private Depository Clos
ed -"Wizard" Now
Held In Jail

BOSTON, Aug. 14-Bank Com
missioner JOS. Allen today took
charge of the affairs of the Polish
Industrial Association, conducting a
private bank in this city. Henry H.
Chmielinski, president of the Hanover
Trust company the. chief depositary
of Charles Ponzi, which was closed
last Wednesday by the commissioner
is president of the Industrial associ-
alton.
Bank Commissioner Allen said that
the loans of the association were Ell
ther bad or of doubtful value and
there was virtually no cash left. He
said its affairs were hopelessly in
terwoven with those of the Hanover
Trust Company. The capital of the
Association is $13,775 and it had de-
posits of about $350,000.
Ponzi ate his breakfast in the
Middlesex county jail in East Cam
bridge, a prisoner of the United
States government in default of $685.
600 bonds.
Three officers of the Old COLONY
Foreign Exchange Company, rival
concern of Ponzi's Securities Ex-
change Company had their morning
meal in the Charles street Jail, pris.
oners of the commonwo in default
of $50.O00 bonds each. Samuel Zorn
said to be an employe of the Old
Colony Foreign Exchange Company,
was at headquarters awaiting a hear
ing on charge of larceny of $500
from persons unknown. He also had
spent the night in Jail.
The three officers of the company
who were held are Charles NJ Bright
well, president and treasurer of the
concern; Raymond Myers, Office man.
ager, and Fred Meyers, sales agent
They Meyers are brothers. The mer
were held on technical charges o1
larceny of $500 from persons un.
known. Upon representation of All.
bert Hurwitz. assistant attorney gen
eral, the company's transactions
probably would be shown to have
amounted to hundreds of thousands
of dollars; the bonds were set at a
high figure.
Ponzi, whose bondsmen surrender
ed him yesterday, to the federal au-
thorltles, was confronted with the al
tentative of remaining in federal Gus
tody, or if he could find another
bondsman, of being arrested again
by the commonwealth under blan-
ket warrant issued in the municipal
court charging him with larceny in
53 counts, totalling $4,000.
The authorities were said to be
determined that the sensational fl
nacier should remain in custody, the
principal reason for this being a de-
sire to preserve for his creditors
whatever assets he may have and the
fear that Ponzi might seek to dissi-
pate or transfer them if out on bail.
Edwin L. Pride, federal auditor of
Ponzi's accounts has placed the lat
ter's known liabilities at $8,000,000,
and Ponzi claimed assets of about S4,-
100000.
Referring to the possible transfer
of large sums by Ponzi to his wife,
Mr.. Pride said;
''It can be taken away from her
and it will be. 1t does not belong to
her. 1t is money that was obtained
under fraudulent pretenses to be
used for fraudulent purposes"
