Army Officer $4,000 Is
Denied By Latter,
INVESTMENT OF $500
GREW TO $4,000, SAYS
Money Placed By Him With
a Wall Street Firm Was
His Own Hidden By His
Wife at Her Home,
tBy The Associated Press.)

Washington, July 22.-Maj.
Bruce r. Campbell Of the United
States army told a house investi-
eating committee today that not
single penny of the $500 placed
by him with a Wall street firm for
stock market trading last year was
received from the Bergdoll fam
lily.
Flatly denying the charge by
Mrs. Emma C. Bergdoll of Phila-
delphia that he had been paid
$4,000 to aid in obtaining freedom
for Grover c. Bergdoll, her son,
who evaded the draft, Major
Campbell declared that the sum
sent to the brokers' was his own
money, hidden by his wife at her
home since the early days of the
war.
Tells of Hidden Treasure.
The major, called here hurriedly
without opportunity to examine
the charges against him, first de-
clined to testify at this time as
to the source of the fund. But,
pressed, hard by the committee, he
turned about suddenly and told of
the hidden treasure, and a moment
later related in detail how $500
investment placed with the late
Milton Young of Lexington, KY,
before the war, grew to $4,000 in
1917. 1t was this same sum, he
said, that was hidden away and
later shifted to Wall street and
lost.
Processing ignorance as to how
the Young investment had in
creased, Major Campbell said that
1t had been turned back to him by
a man, still living, but whose name
he declined at the moment to give.
Then in the midst of a sharp ex-
change with committeeman,
Campbell broke in. declaring: "Oh,
hell, it was my father"
Father Is Summoned.
AT this point the committee de-
cided to call the father, William
r. Campbell of Lexington, who was
asked to come here at once.
Extremely reluctant to touch
upon family affairs to clear him
self of the charges. Major Camp
bell declared that it had been his
purpose to ask time that he might
be able to corroborate fully every
word of his testimony. 1t was for
this reason, he said, that he did not
want to disclose all of his evidence
until he had been allowed time to
submit proof in denial of the ac-
cusations.
An Injustice Done.
The major asserted that
"frightful' injustice had been done
him by the committee in permitting
Mrs Bergdoll and a representative
of the brokers to testify when he
was not present. He protested
vigorously that an agent of the
army intelligence service, inspect
ing his bank account at New York,
had not shown that at a prior date
he had more than $4,000 on de-
post. A telegram, he said, had
been sent the bank. requesting that
1t verify his statement to this ef-
feet, and to send its answer in care
of Chairman Peters.
At various times Major Camp
bell declared he and his wife had
$4,000 on deposit, not counting
the sum lost on the market, but he
declined to mention the name of
banks until he could get hold of
his papers, en- route with his house.

ENGLAND'S PROPOSAL FOR PEACE
AN OLD SWINDLE,
SELLING A GOLD
BRICK, REVIVED
tBy The Associated Press,

Juarez, Mexico, July 22.-
An ancient swindle was re-
vived here today when Teodoro
Obregon sold a brick neatly
lettered gold" "22 k" to SAL
vador Ateca, for $1,000. Ateca
is a wealthy Juarez business
man. Teodoro was later ar
rested and the $1,000 restored
to Mr.. Ateca. Obregon and his
victim are both from the same
province in Spain and the mer-
chant declined to prosecute

Lloyd George Wishes to
Save the Home Rule Act,
Which Is Objected to BY
Southern Leaders
(By The Associated Press J

probably be found on puDli-
cation of the cabinets offer
TO Ireland, the parliamentary
correspondent of the London
Times declares, that, with
single exception, ccrta;:l milf
tary safeguards are Reserved
for the imperial parliament
and that full range of domin-
ion authority is to be offered
alike to the parliament of the
south and to the parliament Of
the north.
London, July % (by the Asso-
ciated Press) The future course
of the Irish negotiations seems to
turn on two important points
first, whether another meeting be-
tween Sir James Craig, the Ulster
premier, and Eamonn de Valera
can be brought about in Ireland,
and, second. whether Mr.. de Valera
can be induced to consent to a solu-
tion of the situation through an
amendment of the existing home
rule act, presuming that such a
solution can be worked out.
The second question appears to
hinge on a desire on the part OF
the contending parties to hold to
their ideals. Mr.. Lloyd George, as
a concession to the unionist section
of the coalition, wishes to save the
home rule act and Mr.. de Valera
and his party. on the other hand,
would vastly prefer to destroy the
hated partition act"
Ovation for de Valera.
Mr.. de Valera today had an ova-
tion as he was returning to Dublin.
He is expected to spend the week
end there in informal talks with
his colleagues and probably will
summon meeting Of the Dali
Eireann next week to examine the
governments offer. The conven-
ing of the Dali Eireann, it is under
stood here. would be an indication
that the offer was regarded as the
possible basis for further negotia-
tions. The supposition is that If
the draft offer is not approved by
Arthur Griffith. Prof. John Mac
Neil, Michael Collins and other
leaders. the Dali Eireann will hard
ly be convened. while If the leaders
accept the draft the sanction of
the Dali Eireann is certain to fol-
low.
Among the Sim Feiners in Lon
don no definite development in the
negotiations seems to be expected
for ten days or fortnight.
Terms Are Kept Secret.
The terms of the governments
proposal apparently will not be an
nounced publicly without a prior
agreement between Premier Lloyd
George and Mr.. de Valera.
According to apparently inspired
statements, however, they are of a
somewhat tentative character, in
tended to indicate the lines on
which the government considers a
of the situation possible,
provided both Ulster and the Sim
Fein are able to agree and request
the government to amend the ex-
listing act.

TRIPLE OFFERING
 [ DAYS AT THE HIP
 STARTING SUNDAY

The Hip has a triple offering for the Sunday, Monday and Tuesday of the week to come. The fourth chap ter of "The Son of Tarzan" will of course be the big attraction for those who have been following this smart continued story.
 In this episode there happens some of the greatest outdoor photography ever seen in films and the fight which takes place discounts the two that have preceded this chapter.
 With 'sThe Son of Tarzan' there will be shown what on any other pro- gram would be considered enough for one showing. Big Bill Russell comes in Children of the Night a corking picture of love and adventure and one that gives this boy all kinds of chance to show his athletic ability.
 If this were not enough the man agement has provided for the comedy lovers the inimitable Mutt and Jeff in one of their very latest creations.

REX BEACH'S STORY
 THE NORTH WINDS
 MALICE" 1T STRAND

The Strand opens Sunday for run of four days with one of the finest outdoor pictures of the current year, when it presents Rex Beach's cele- brated story of the snow country:
 .'The North Winds Malice" There is malice in the North Wind. which enters the lives of a hard working pioneer and his pretty wife. Small happenings lead to quarrels and you have the basic thought in this great gripping human interest story of the hardy pioneers of the north and their hardy women helpers, the malmute dogs, the snow and frozen country in the great pine woods of that far away section Rex Beach, like no other man writing today, can de- scribe the north, because Rex Beach spent many years tramping through the great untracked forests, and hills of the snow country. Rex Beach was there when the famous Alaskan gold rush took place and he knowsf the types of men and women who pio- neered fthat country. In The North Winds Malice he has done a pie ture which, while entirely different from the Spoilers" is the only crea- tion from his pen that has rivaled that never -to-be forgotten classic of the north. Goldwyn has made the picture and it has selected some of the greatest characters before the screen to portray the types. Of course, the cast is headed by Tom Santschi, who was the man who bat tied William Farnum in that never be-forgotten fight in "The Spoil ers," and there is Joe King. Dorothy Wheeler, Ben Thornton, and last but not least, Verr Gordon. who played the Jewish mother in the wonderful production of "Humoresque." "The North Winds Malice" is one of the greatest pictures of the year, and coming as 1t does in the heated period of Arizona, it will. in the cool com fortable auditorium of the Strand suggest more comfort with its hun dreds of snow scenes and outdoor pictures of the North.
