Scent Tragedy in
Overturned Auto

fBy Associated Press Leased Wire)
Kansas City, Mo.-The bodies of
two men and a woman were found in
a closed automobile half submerged in
Brush Greek in the south part of this
city today. The car had apparently
fallen with it's occupants from a tres
tie and broken through athe ice of the
creek. The bodies were frozen in the
ice which had formed inside the car.
The dead are Mrs. Anna Srac, pro-
prietor of lodging house; Nick To-
nick, laborer at the Armour Packing
plant, and Thomas Covlovich, also a
laborer. The three had apparently lost
their way in the dark and instead Of
taking sharp turn in the road, drove
onto the trestle used as a street car
right of way.
About 10:40 last night, C. M.-Froeh-
licher, who lives near the scene, heard
crash but as it was not followed by
any cutlery he did not investigate.
Early this morning the crew of street
car discovered the car frozen in the
creek. The tail-light of the car was
still burning which attracted their
attention.
Investigating they found the car half
submerged, the bodies of the three
persons huddled together frozen in
the ice.

Women Crowd
Federal Prison

Jefferson City, Mo. - Warden Sam
Hill of the state penitentiary today
sent a telegram to Attorney General
Daugherty stating that there no long
er was room in the female department
of the penitentiary for women convict
ed in the federal courts. Fifty-seven
of the 100 women were sentenced in
various federal courts, some as far
away as Alaska.
Nine years ago the Missouri peni-
tertiary was selected by federal au-
thorities as the most suitable place for
the confinement of women convicted
in the federal courts. This brought
many women anarchists from New
York and recently the number Of wo-
men convicted of violation of the Har-
rison anti-narcotic act has increased
so greatly that the capacity of the
prison has been reached, the warden
said.

completely controlled the annual meet

the insurgents elected their fourteen

threatened to call in the police tc

PIRSCH TRUCK
BOUGHT BY JAPS
Japanese Government Buys
Pirsch Fire Fighting
Truck Today.
MORE TO FOLLOW

Made in Kenosha, Wisconsin, U. S.
A." or the Japanese equivalent of that,
will be familiar phrase in Japan in
the near future. This was made GER
tain this morning when the Peter
Pirsch & Sons company of Kenosha
received an order from the Japanese
government for fire truck, to be
delivered in Yokohoma at the earliest
possible date. The order comes as a
result of visit of Japanese delega-
ton to the Peter Pirsch company plant
here several weeks ago.
Fire fighting apparatus is a new
venture in Japan and the government
is sponsoring the movement to equip
cities with modern machinery for COM
batting the flames. For that reason a
commission from the government was
sent to America to study various fire
fighting apparatus manufactured here
and the order received this morning
is a result.
Merely Sample Order.
The order is made through the
Mitsui Company, Ltd, of New York,
the authorized representatives of the
Japanese government. 1t calls for a
combination chemical hose and pumper
truck, such as is ordinarily used by a
city of $4,000 in this country.
It is explained that this is merely a
sample order and that the government
is anticipating making many other
similar purchases. The order will be
rushed to completion and will be
shipped via the Panama Canal to
Yokohoma.
The visit of the Japanese delegation
to Kenosha has opened new large
field for the Peter Pirsch & Sons COM
pany Of Kenosha and with the placing
of sample order with the company
it is certain that the Kenosha-made
fire truck and fire fighting apparatus
will become as we'll known there as it
is in America.

JEWISH BAKERS
IN FAMILY FEUD
Weintraub Threatens to
Put Jake Singer Behind
Prison Bars.
ALL ABOUT A CHECK

There was little row over a check
matter in the municipal court this
morning. Jake Singer was charged
with having forged check of S499.70
and I. Weintraub, the main witness
for the state, who had been associated
with Singer in the Kenosha bakery
business, admitted on the witness
stand that he had twice said he'd put
Jake Singer behind the bars. Prelim-
mary hearing N the case was on this
morning, the prosecution being con.
Quoted by the district attorney and
assistant.
"Sure, 1 said that" he replied to
the cross-examiation of Attorney 4. L.
Drury, counsel for the defendant.
you're trying to do that now, aren't
you ?" asked Drury.
Sure" replied the witness unabash-
ed. "Tm trying to put crook where
he belongs"
All Six to Half Dozen.
The evidence showed that Singer,
Weintraub and Dave Dromzak, who
was brought into court this morning
in another case charged with having
moonshine in a bakery wagon, had all
been partners in the bakery business.
Singer was said to have raised a check,
originally made out for SIT by Vein
traub, to over $400 and cashed it with
Berk0witz of the Northern Motor
Sales company. So Puch Of an inter-
fraternal feud among the Jewish men
represented in the case was developed
in the testimony that it appeared that
they bore as much resemblance to one
another as so many pins.
Even Berkowitz on the witness stand
admitted that he had had some trouble
over a chatteI mortgage with Singer
and Weintraub and that he had made
unfattering and threatening remarks.
Drury tried to show in the testi-
mony that the bank account was in the
firms name and that Singer had as
much right to draw on it as anyone
else.
Firm Went Bankrupt.
The testimony showed that the bak-
cry firm had gone bankrupt last sum
mer and that creditors had a difficult
time getting money.
"You were indebted to Singer for
more than the actual amount of the
check, weren't your Drury asked
Weintraub when the latter was on the
witness stand.
"No," said the witness.
Didn't you and Dromzak, before
you filed a petition in bankruptcy, go
to all your customers and collect the
money owing? And didn't you and
Dromzak divide that money between
you and put it in your own pockets? %
NO." said the witness.
"And didn't you say before fling tie
bankruptcy petition that you wouldn't
lose anything because you had col
Iected all the money outstanding?
'No," returned the witness once
more. GAIL the money is out on the
route now"
