"Wild Cat Schemes In Ian.
caster County May Be Laid
Bare If Offer Of At
torney Il Accepted.

Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 9.-(Special.)
"A grand jury investigation OF wild
cat" stock selling promotions may be
called here if the offer Of c. E. Mat
son, Lancaster county attorney, to
pay half the expenses Of the probe, is
accepted by Attorney General Clar-
ence A. Davis, according to an an
nouncement made Saturday by Mr..
Matson.
The attorney said he would recon-
mend to the district court that a
grand jury be called if. the state
would furnish him with an assistant
and pay half the expenses of the
investigation. Mr.. Matson wrote a
letter to Mr.. Davis, who is in Oma-
ha, asking for his view on the offer.
He wrote that he understood the
state paid half the expenses of the
recent grand jury investigation in
Omaha.
Presiding Judge A. J. Clements in
Lincoln announced he would call
grand jury if the attorney general
would recommend it.
An investigation OF wild cat"
stock selling schemes in Lincoln
would take in at least dozen firms
that have been declared defunct in
the past two years. Losses to the
public through these schemes aggre-
gate more than $l2000,000, accord
ing to an estimate made by Lincoln
attorneys.

University Students
Vote to Eliminate
Annual Class Rush =

Chicago Tribne- Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Chicago, Oct. 9.-Men, students at
Northwestern university vooted to
put an end to class "rushes,' long
a stirring feature of the great Metho-
dist school. This follows the lnys-
terious disappearance Of Leighton
Mount, freshman, missing for more
than two weeks, during the rush"
at that time.
The day before Mounts disappear
ance, another fresh" was taken to
pier in the lake and suspended to
the piling, head downward. The
rising waves had nearly strangled
him when he was rescued.
In an announcement made by
President Walter Dill Scott, he de-
nies that any student has ever been
seriously injured in one OF these
rushes. He specifically denies that
co-eds tore out each others hair and
ripped the clothing off each other.
Concerning Mount, the president
says he disappeared after the rush
was over, boasting that he had
thrown sophomore into the lake.

Men Under
Indictment
Surrender
Meadow Grove and Hooper
Residents Appear and Give
Bond-Deputy Sheriff
Not Informed.
Seek Two in California

Disclosure OF the surrender OF two
additional alleged wildcat stock
promoters and energetic steps to
bring two more into a Nebraska
court were made public early Sum
day morning in Attorney General
Davis prosecution OF men indicted
by the recent Douglas county grand
jury.
J. Edgar Daniel OF Meadow Grove,
Neb., president OF the Great Western
Commercial Body company OF
Omaha, and August II. Ruwe OF
Hooper, Neb., director OF the same
concern, surrendered voluntarily 10
the custody OF the Douglas county
district court last Wednesday, it de-
veloped yesterday. They were re-
leased on $1,000 bond, each.
Late Saturday night Chief Deputy
Sheriff w. A. Foster telegl aphed
California authorities to arrest Jacob
Masse and Charles 0. Wohlberg,
now in Los Angeles, for cxtradition
to Nebraska.
No Record of Arrests.
Considerable mystery surrounds
the surrender OF Daniel and Ruwe.
Although they appeared before Dis
trict Judge Troup Wednesday and
gave bond, Deputy Sheriff Foster de-
clared last evening that he had no
record of the fact, and, until notified
by The Bee, had them o., the list of
men still to be apprehended.
Both MEN were indicted on two
charges, each alleging conspiracy to
commit a felony. According to
Judge Troup, they appeared volun-
tarily, accompanied by counsel, At
torney Herman Aye. and gave bonds
which were approved Immediately.
Daniels bond was signed by Post
master Herbert S. Daniel, relative,
and that OF Ruwe was signed by the
Southern Surety company.
Unearned Dividend Paid.
In one Indictment Daniel and
Ruwe were charged jointly with
Robert c. O'Bryan and E. C..
Goerke with conspiracy to commit,
a felony in the fraudulent sale of
stock in the Great Western Com
mercial Body company. The grand
jury charged that in September
1919, and subsequent thereto, these
men conspired with others to per-
suade various individuals TO buy
stock in the company -on-the under
standing Shat the company was SOL
vent and was earning dividends. In
fact, the jury charged, it was in
solvent and earning no dividends.
This indictment charges further than
on January !, 1920, the defendants.
as officers and directors, directed
that 10 per cent dividend be paid,
although it had not been earned and
must have been paid out of the pro-
ceeds of stock sales.
A second indictment charges
Daniel, Ruwe, O'Bryan and others
with conspiring to commit a felony
in that they conspired to embezzle
more than 100000 of money, goods
and securities belonging to the COM
pany. It is charged that in July,

Lad Dies Almost
Instantly From
Shotgun Wound
Farmer Boy Believed to Have
Been Accidentally Shot
On Hunting Trip
Brother Held.

Grand Island, Neb., Oct. 9.-(Spe-
cial Telegram.)- Deichmann,
16, young farmer lad residing three
miles north of this city with his wild
owed mother and several brothers
killed by what appears to have been
the accidental discharge OF his shot
gun.
He had been alone on the farm
during the morning, working about
the barns and hauling in some earth
for some of the stalls. About noon,
while the older brother, Albert, was
hauling out load of manure, Bruno
took his shotgun and went through
the garden to hunt rabbits.
According to the story of the
brother, he heard a shot while re-
turning from the field, put up his
horses and went to the house for
dinner. Not finding his brother in
the house, he went out and found
him lying behind a COW shed, bleed
ing profusely from gunshot wound
in the right breast. The wounded
lad had walked 120 steps toward the
house. Albert summoned the fam
lily physician, who, upon arrival,
telephoned to the sheriff as acting
coroner.
The shot had penetrated the body.
carrying away particles of the shoul-
der bone. The gun was found in a
we'll in the garden, barrel up, and
the upper board OF the wooden cas-
ing shows where the gun had struck
it, evidently the trigger.
The fact that there were few
stray shots an inche away from the
main wound. believed to be improb-
able upon close range, and that
Sheriff McCutchan had been told
that the brothers had had quarrel
a few days ago, led to the holding
of Edward. 1o-year-old brother. The
mother declares the argument was
trivial and that the two boys had
been playing about the house in the
most brotherly way following the
alteration. Neighbors also regard
as impossible any other theory than
accidental shooting The father Of
the family died in February.
