|ND|CT SHIP OWNER
0NFRAUD CHARGES
Victor s. Fox Held for faIsifyIng
Accounts Of Vessels Bought
From United States.

NEW YORK. Oct 6.-Mystery In
the Department OF Justices inyesti-
CATION OF the affairs OF Victor o. Fox,
ship owner "a mystery fostered for
more than q week In New York and
Washinston). was dispsiled yester-
day.
Fox and william H Kaiser. treas
urer Of Victor 8. Fox q Co. Of No.
a. Broadway. were indicted by the
Federal Grand Jury. They are
charged with taking part In q con-
spiracy to defrsud the United States
by presenting false accounts and
vouchers TO the Shipping Board. in
connection with the purchase on the
instsilment plan OF seven Govern
ment-buiit vessels.
There are two indictments. Tho
amounts named are comparatively
small. It was said the Governments
accountants have not finished exam
ming the nrm's complicated books
Fox and Kaiser were held in $4,000
and $1,000 bail respectively by Judge
Mayer. Each entered q tentative plea
OF not guilty.
SEVEN DETERRENT COMPANIES.
SAShtiVhc0 ia inulCtu0nI0
the steamships Armenia, Yellowstone,
Coosa. Castiewood. Mount Shasta, Iso-
nomis and Janette Skinner. Fox &
Co. guaranteed the contracts for the
purchase OF the vessels by companies
bearing the names OF the individual
ships.
The frauds charged concerned the
redollvory of the Yellowstone to the
Shipping Board. On August H.. It is
charged, the defendants submitted
false report OF disbursement and re-
ceipts In the operation Of that ship.
This statement showed apparent ex-
cess disbursements over receipts OF
$67.0S2. which sum was to be applied
on the purchase price of other vessels.
Two seeming payments specified were
S4.1S6 to the International Shipping
and Cargo Exchange and $1,000 to
Lampke and Stein.
THEIR ALLEGED AIM.
The purpose of the defendants, 1t is
charged, was to cause the Shipping
Board to credit corporations of which
Fox was president with $9,1S6. and
tho Government and the Shipping
Board would thereby be cheated,
swindled and defrauded."
Information resulting In the indict-
ments was given by men formerly in
Fox's employ. The investigation has
been carried on for more than a fort
night.
Fox was questioned by Federal At
torney Caffey's assistants more than
week ago, but subsequently denied
that he was the subject of any sort
Of investigation. Before he took a
flier in shipping Fox, 1t is said. was
theatrical costumer.

FOUGHT BY BRITAIN
Protests Hartman Contract
After Seeking to Make SINH
lar Arrangement for Self.
CONTINUED from First Page.)


II is tho duty of the Allies to lend
a hand wherever possible to Ger
many's efforts at rehabilitation.
Admiral Benson. chairman of the
shipping board, set at rest yesterday
reports that the board was trying to
"get from under" the Hamburg
American Hartman contract. He
said:
The contract hss ny unconaitfssal
approval. and I cenaid~r II the nnest
thing ! have hsd anything to do With
during ny tern Of Onlee1
He called attention to the fact that
the agreement has not as yet been for
mally approved. but has received the
sanction and support of the board
Because OF the Importance OF the prof.
ect. the admiral believes that II
should be passed upon by the full
board of seven members. as provided
for In the merchant marine act.
OPPOSITION BORN OF ENVY.
Admiral Henson believes that prac-
tically All spDositios to the eoatract
originates With foreign Interests whs
were Themselves unable to effect such
an agreement. He admits Germany
will also beneflt. but takes the posi-.
tion that an Agreement must be recip-
rocal-that the American company
could not secure the benefits Of the
German trade, routes, facilities, etc.,
for nothing.
The pending agreement between the
United States Mail Steamship Com
pany and the North German Lloyd
Company will receive the sanction
and support" OF the board probably
before the end of the week, 1t was
learned today. Its legality has been
passed upon by the legal department.
One or two points involving law
are being cleared up by the State De-
partment They are only incidental
however. and do not affect the gen.
eral working agreement provided for
In the event OF the North German
Lloyd agreement being sanctioned
Admiral Benson expects 1t will be
subjected "to the same attacks that
have been directed against the Ham
burg-American contract"
Admiral Benson declined to com
ment on the Indictment of Victor S
Fox, Of New York, yesterday. The
board recently seized all vessels pur-
chased by Fox on the partial payment
plan. to protect them from Fox's
creditors. What course the board will
pursue depends upon future develop
ments It was stated.
