THE BAST|LF
Two Men Get Out of the
Rochester Jail
RANDOLPH IN GETAWAY
He Was Being Held There On
Forgery Charge; Slipped
Check Here

Rochester. Mimi, August 10
Lloyd Randolph, the young man VINO
passed forged check on a hotel man
in Mankato and was arrested In
Winona july II when he attempted
to pass a bad check at Winona
clothing store and who was brought to
Rochester on the day following to
answer forgery charges there, escaped
Sunday morning at ten o'clock when
Queen City Salvation Army lassies,
after holding services in the county
Jail, left the cell doors unlocked, per
hitting Randolph, accompanied by the
only other prisoner in the Jail, to
leave the establishment shortly after
their departure. - ,...
Escaped Not Noticed.
None saw the escape and the dis
covery of the prisoners departure
was not noted until some time later.
The sheriff was evidently not in the
vicinity of the cells when the SAL
walton Army lassies prepared Ito leave
and they, the innocent causes of the
Jail delivery, gave the matter no spe-
cial thought when the services were
over. They evidently supposed tina:
the sheriff, would Immediately lock
the cells and doors as was custom
arily done.
Birds Had Flown.
When the sheriff appeared, how
ever, the birds had flown, and the
Jail deserted.
Police and county authorities in
the entire surrounding territory were
notified by the Olmsted county off,
GERS and description Of the men were
given. Randolph's companion was
described as a young fellow of seven
teen or eighteen years, wearing two
pairs of blue trousers and a red
sweater. The police here are certain
that the escaped men will stay clear
of Winona.
If Randolph makes good his es-
cape, local police stated today, it viii
be most fortunate event for him.
He is said to be wanted in several
cities in Minnesota for check forgery
and his presence may even be desir-
ed in other states, they believe. His
home is in Iowa.
Randolph made futile attempt
to escape his captors while being
brought to the station at Winona at
the time of his arrest, but the odds
were too great and his struggles
were brief. 1t is believed by Roches-
ter authorities that Randolph is not
far from the CITY, . 49,.

IN LEAGUE AFFAIRS
Minnesota Women In Great
Demand This Summer
In Work

From Wednesdays Daily
Minnesota women connected with
the work of the League of Women
Voters have found themselves ma
tionally in demand this summer.
Miss Marguerite NJ. Wells, Presi-
dent Of the State League, has been
called in consultation with national
board women and has recently re-
turned from Lyme, Connecticut,
where she has been consulting upon
League affairs with Miss Katharine
Ludington. Regional Director for the
district which includes Maine, Yer
mont, New Hampshire, Massachu
sets, Connecticut, and Rhode Island.
The main subject under discussion
was the furtherance Of the interest
in International Disarmament and in
the new national department of Ef-
ficiency in Government.
Miss Emily Kneubuhr, than whom
perhaps no one is better known to
the women of Minnesota, as she has,
during the last year, worked as di-
rector of political education for the
League in every county in the state,
had the honor of conducting school
of citizenship at the national Chau-
tauqua in New York State. The
Citizenship Forum at Chautauqua
Is the first of its kind in that time
honored cultural center. Speaking
with Miss Kneubuhl were Mrs Maud
Wood Park, Miss Mary Garrett Hay,
Mrs. Percy Pennybacker and other
special subject was the Constitution
of the United States, and she returns
to Minneapolis filled with enthusiasm
in regard to the manner in which
women are interesting themselves
in national affairs. Miss Kneubuhl
will now go for a much needed vaca-
ton to Colorado and California but
says she will be eager to return to
her work in her beloved Minnesota.
A third Minnesota women who will
take her place in national affairs this
week Is Mrs. Sumner T. Mcknight,
the chairman of the Fifth District
League of Women Voters and Ma
tional League treasurer. Mrs. Nc
knight has been chosen to accom-
pany' Mrs. Maud Wood Park and
Mrs. Clifford Pinchot to. carry the
congratulations of the national and
local Leagues of Women Voters to
President Harding on his bringing
to successful issue the arrange
ments for the international confer
ence on the reduction of armament.
An audience mas DeeH granted Dy the
president to the representatives of
the League for Wednesday, August
18th at the White House.
1t will be the supreme work of the
Minnesota League of Women Voters
this year to keep the eyes of the
women of the state focused on the
proceedings of the International Con.
ference which will convene in Wash
ington on Armistice Day. Plans are
under way for the liberal dissemina-
ton of news to every part of the
state in regard to the sittings of the
conference.

STEPPED IN MYSTERY
Woman Had Been In Cores
pondence With North Dakota
Chief Executive
bii2 l.. \.

Chicago, August 16.-Authorities to
day ascribed the suicide last night
of Miss Mary D. Brito due to let
ter alleged to have been received by
from q ma. ,azine editor. Miss De
Brito. advertising specialist and a
beauty who had taken several prizes
was found immersed in bath tub az
her rooming house with the tube
from an open gas jet in her mouth.
According to Mr.. a, d Mrs. Edward
Weller with whom she roomed, Miss
De Brito told them of reading an ar
ticle in magazine published in North
Dakota supporting the practice OF tar
and feathering force groups. She is
said to have taken exception to the
article and to have written a letter
to Governor Frazier of North Dakota
condemning it. This letter, it is said,
was sent also to the magazine editor
who replied with a letter denouncing
her.
She attributed tie visit of man
&c her ION" >. - -
letter she had written and asserted
he had threatened her with injury,
according to Mr.. and Mrs. Weller,
who assert that her fright increased
until they believe she decided to kill
herself.
i Searching For Letter.
Police today began a search for
letter from the editor of a North
Dakota periodical, in the hope that
it might contain some clue to the
De Brito, advertising writer for a
department store.
They are also searching for three
men, two of whom visited the young
woman's rooming house at three
o'clock this morning, few hours
after she was found dead in the bath
tub with a gas tube in her mouth,
and took every paper and photograph
from her room. Representing them
selves as employees of the coroner's
office, the two strangers carried of
a number of pictures, letters, personal
papers, metal bond, box and even
forced the girls trunk with a screw
driver.
The third man being sought ap-
peared at the rooming house last
Saturday, and, representing himself
as an insurance company employe,
inquired into Mrs. De Brito's life his
tory. Later the same day he visited
the girls office and is said to have
threatened her.
Wrote Letter To Gov. Frazier
Two weeks ago, it is said the girl read
an article in North Dakota magazine
advocating tar and feathers as punish
ment in certain cases. She wrote a
letter to Governor Lynn B. Frazier
protesting and asking why the ma
gazine was not suppressed. A letter
Of acknowledgment from the COVER
nor's secretary. which Mrs. De Brito
showed to Mrs. WELLER, said her com
plant had been sent to the editor.
Last Friday. Mrs. Weller told the
police, the girl received letter from
the editor, and appeard much upset.
Saturday when she came home and
told of the man who had threatened
her at the foffice and learned that a
man answering he same description
had called at their home she appear
ed on the verge of collapse. Mrs.
Weller said.
Mrs De Critic was married at the
age of sixteen to Claude De Brito a
wealthy Brazilian, according to her
mother, Mrs Mary Forman. They
later separated. In 1921 she won a
prize as the most beautiful Irish girl
in Chicago.

MUST SHOW CAUSE

More Legal Procedure For Otto
+. Remmler the Redwing Brewer.
St. Paul, August 16.-Otto A.
Reminder, manager of the Reminder
brewery at Redwing, is cited to ap-
pear and show cause why his permit
to manufacture cereal beverages
should not be withdrawn, according
to an announcement made by Jesse
G. Steenson, state prohibition direc-
tor. .E
If the Reminder permit is revoked
it will be the second closure of the
brewery within six weeks. 1t was
taken possession of by federal agents

closed until July 3d. when Judge Will
bur F. Booth of the United States dis
trict court turned it back to the own
ers upon condition that they file cash
bond of $4,000, pending the outcome
of the case in federal court.
But all manufacturers of near beer
and other cereal beverages must oper-
ate under a permit, Mr.. Steenson ex-
planned, which can be withdrawn by
the state prohibition director at any
time if just cause is shown. 1t is to
determine this that the hearing will
be held mex week.
Mr.. Rembler and John Stark, bis
brewmaster, were bound over to the
federal grand jury on the charge OF
manufacture beer with an alcoholic
content of more than one half Of /
per cent when they were arraigned
before Francis B. Tiffany. United

CATTLE TRADE Dull
Industry At A
StandstiII
~ -! -L-'~EI1:-
BRITISH STRIKE CAUSE
Scarcity Ships To Carry Beef;
Hogs and Sheep Movement
Quite Slow
PHILIP AOUILA DEMPSTER

Buenos Aires, August 16.-The
cattle industry in Argentina, the most
important and largest industry Of the
country. has practically reached a
standstill.
This was caused, to large ex
tent, by the exchange situation, but
has been greatly accelerated by the
strike in England of the British coal
miners. The latter has caused a
scarcity of ships to carry the beef,
and there is great jrregularity in the
sailings of the ones which do come
to Argentina from England.
The greater part of the beef ex-
ported from Argentina goes to Eng
land. Practically none is sent to the
United States. Even the large Amer
lean frigorificos Armour's and Swift's
sent almost all their meat to Eng
land and Europe, France receiving
a considerable portion. Also a small
been shipped to Germany. However,
with conditions in England as they
are at present, the meat houses are
refraining from ordering Argentine
beef, with the result that the pack
ing houses here are marking time,
hoping for an improvement of the
situation.
Hogs And Sheep Movement Slow
In hogs and sheep, movement of
the industry Is slow, but not to the
extent of the business in cattle. A
considerable quantity of hogs and
sheep are being sent to the United
States and Europe, as well as some
hides.
Argentina is the ideal country for
cattle raising, the larger area Of IT,
country being made up of rich graz
ing lands. The Argentina climate is
so temperate that cattle are able to
Craze the year round, absolutely no
attention being necessary for them.
Even the smallest "estancias" have
several hundred head of cattle, while
on the larger ones Craze several
thousand head.
The packing plants buy several
hundred head at time. They usual
ly buy from ten days to two weeks
ahead, timing the arrival of the cat
tie with their killing. The latter
operation must also be timed with
the sailing of tie ships on which the
cattle are to be exported.
The greater part of Paraguay Is as
well adapted, If not better, to stock
raising in Argentina. But there, too,
business has come to a standstill. At
present, fattening cattle can be
bought in Paraguay at eight or nine
dollars gold head.
In Argentina the largest estan-
cias contain complete villages, with
church, school, etc., in which all the
Inhabitants are employees of the es-
tancia, living there with their fam
lilies. III.

HACKER IS PUNCHED
He Will Be Given His Trial In
Minneapolis On Septem-
-. Der 18th.

ASSOCIATED Press Dispatch]
=. Hacker, charged with swindl-
ing William +. Rohner out of ST.
100 in the promotion of a summer +,
resort at Elk River. was declared
to have swindled others by Ed
ward Golf, assistant Hennepin
county attorney, in a request for
heavy bail when Hacker was ar
raigned today in district court.
Bail was fixed at $1,000 and trial {.
set for September IL.
Hopes of w. F. Rohner, an en-
ployee of the William Bros Boiler
Manufacturing company, Nicollet
island for profitable part in ST.
100000 for the development of pro-
perty near Elk River have disappeared
along with $4,100, according to his
story to County Attorney Floyd B.
Olson, said The Minneapolis Journal
last evening. .....
Instead of the ambitious promotion
scheme which failed to materialize,
Rohner is now particularly interested
in the prosecution of Carl f. Hack
er, who is in the county Jail charged
with grand larceny. Hacker was to
De drTdlSuSQ late IOQdy.
County Attorney Olson said Roh-
ner told him he had turned over his
money to Hacker after he had listen
ed interestedly to a proposd plan for
the development of huge tract OF
land near Elk River. This had in
cluded the formation of a s1,000,000
corporation, Rohner said, the entire
affair to be handled by Hacker who
representa- himself as a member OF
the Standard Farm Development
company with offices at 405 Metro
politan Bank building.
The development plans included
establishment of country club,
golf links, an elaborate cafe, garage
and other adjuncts together with a
bus line to operate between Minnea-
polls and Elk River.
Developments did not come as rap
idly as he had expected and Rohner
appealed to the county attorney.
The Hacker mentioned in the
story Is believed. to be the Carl
Hacker who once resided In Manka-
to. He was engaged in the insurance
business while living here. -. lltAsa5
