could not be used in prosecuting the
cases.
In many instances no information
had been made out by the raiding Of
ficers, only bonds having been taken

1921 and others 1922. None of the
cases Is Of the current calendar year.

BROKERS
ADMIT BUCKET|NG
Heads of Fuller Firm Plead
Guilty and Seek Mercy
of Court.
BY the Associated Press.

DE tHt tsSoCIatcu
NEW YORK, June 13.-Edward NJ.
Fuller and w. Frank McGee. stock
brokers, who starred in New York s
most sensational bucketshop case, to-
day pleaded guilty to the charge of
bucketing an order from Franklin L.
Link Of Westmoreland, Tenn, and
were remanded for sentence Friday.
Fuller and McGee announced from
their cells in Ludlow street jail that
they would plead guilty.
The brokers, members of the firm
of E. M. Fuller & CO., failed several
months ago for upward of s4.000,000.
They were committed to jail for con-
tempt after they failed to produce
papers which had been ordered by
the Supreme Court of the United
States to be turned over to the trus-
tee in bankruptcy.
Mistrfal Resulted.
Two disagreements and mistrial
resulted after Fuller was accused of
bucketing. Reports that the brokers
would plead guilty and reveal their
legged to have concealed, arose after
it was announced that the prosecuting
attorneys would not disclose until the
trial began, which of fourteen in
dictments the brokers would be called
upon to face.
Edward McManus, a man of mystic
rious occupation, now is under ind1ct-
ment, charged with having sought to
bribe a juryman in one of the three
trials.
The brokers made their announce
ment after breakfast. They said they
had decided to call the whole thing
quits" and throw themselves on the
mercy of the court against the ad-
vice of their lawyers.
Threat by Banton.
District Attorney Banton had let 1t
be known that he would keep on with
the cases If necessary until his term
of office expired in two and a half
years. --..
I'VE are penniless," said McGee to-
day. 1--WE could not fight any more.
The cleverness of the district attorney
and his tenacity was too much for us.
guess we will get tough bit. but
we will have to grin and bear it."
1t was reported that the brokers'
decision to plead guilty was caused
by a desire to save influential friends
The Fuller firm was regarded one
of the strongest members Of the Con-
solidated Stock Exchange. Thousands
of small investors were caught in the
crash.
The Indictment to which Fuller and
MCGEE decided to plead guilty alleged
that in May, 1922, they bucketed an
order involving $500 worth of Mid
die States OIL stock, received from
Franklin L. Link OF Westm oreland,

CH|NA'S PRESIDENT
FLEESFROM PEK|NG
AFTER WARNINGS
Spectacular Dash of Ii Yuan
Hung Leaves Government
Without Head or Cabinet.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PEKING, June 13-President Ii
Yuan-Hung, who has been pressed by
the militarists to resign. left today
for Tientsin.
This morning the militarists sent
q final warning that unless the presi-
dent vacated his office they would
bring troops into the capital.
President Ii made spectacular
dash from his residence to the sta
ton in a motor car, followed by cars
containing his personal guards. The
special train, already under steam,
pulled out at $40 pm. The city was
quiet this afternoon.
Has No Government.
The flight of Lii Yuan-Hung left
the Peking government not only
without president. but without
cabinet. The cabinet of Premier
Chang Shao-Tseng resigned June s.
ostensibly because of disagreement
with the president over the appoint
ment of petty officials, but actually.
1t was said, because of the financial
imnasse and the other difficulties
faced by the Chinese government.
President Ii attempted in vain to
reorganize the cabinet. First, he
urged Chang Shao-Tseng, who went
to Tientsin, to return and resume the
premiership, but Chang was deaf to
the appeal. Then the president asked
DR.. w. w. Yen, formerly foreign
minister, to form a cabinet. and the
task also was offered V. X. yelling
ton Koo. formerly minister to the
United States, but neither was will
ling to assume the responsibility in
view of the political uncertainty.
Strike of Police.
The intrigue that drove Ii Yuan
Hung from the city was set in mo-
ton last Friday by a strike of the
metropolitan police. The police gave
the excuse that wages were owing
them and they returned to work the
next evening. but the president and
others in authority charged that both
the cabinet crisis and the police
strike were part of a plot to replace
his regime with a militaristic gov
ernment The scheme of the police
walkout apparently was to cause dis
order in the city, so that troops
would be forced to take over the
situation. In some quarters 1t was
said that Marshal Tsao-kun. head of
the powerful Chihli military party,
was slated for the presidency.
President Ii, secluded in his resi-
dence, held out until this morning,
deciding to quit only when convinced
that he could not reorganize the cab

called that his resignation had been
