CONSCIENCE PRODS
THIEF TO CONFESS
Former Assistant Cashier of Bank
Admits Stealing
$4,000.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
HARTFORD, Conn, January 2.-An
uneasy conscience led Guy l.. Baker
to confess today the theft of $4,000
from the First National Bank of Put
nam, of which he was assistant cash
Ter. He made his confession to
George H. Cohen, assistant United
States district attorney here.
His populations had been in a three
year period, from 1921 to 1924. Baker
denied that he had any knowledge
that G. Harold Gilpatric, the cashier,
was wrecking the bank by diversions
of large sums of money to private
uses. Gilpatric now is serving a SEN
tence al Atlanta Penitentiary for
wrecking the bank.
Gilpatric's sealings ran into the
hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Only yesterday a conference was held
to see if there could be found q way to
trace a quarter of a million dollars
which had dropped out of sight. The
former cashier, now Sightless, but in
a cheerful frame of mind. daily pro-
crossing in his use of the Braille
system of finger reading. has thus far
been utterly at loss to tell where
most of the money went.
Baker resigned from the bank be-
fore Gilpatric's speculations We're dis
covered.
He was held today on a police court
warrant pending action in the matter
by the district attorneys office.

14O SUBPOENAED
IN Usage MURDERS
Grand Jury Will Probe Sys-
tematiC Killing of Wealthy
Indians.
b. the Associated Press.


PAWHUSkA. Okla, January .
One hundred and forty subpoenas
have been issued in the past three days
in Usage County in connection with
the Federal investigation of the Usage
Indian murder cases, it was leaTned
here today.
The subpoenas are for appearance
before the Federal grand jury at Guth-
RE Monday.
Federal agents were non-Commit-
tai tonight regarding the publication
today by the Oklahoma City Times of
story declaring that the solution
of the two-year mystery surrounding
the deaths was near.
The Times said the arrest of sew
eral men, some of them prominent,
was expected within +S hours.
Denial Is Made.
This was denied immediately by
Attorney General George F. Short,
who has been actively allied with the
Federal authorities in an investigation
of an alleged murder ring held re-
sponsible for the deaths.
Federal agents merely smiled and
remarked that the Times has car
ried several previous stories, some
wide of the mark and others sur
prisingly accurate"
The story declared that a prisoner
in the Federal penitentiary at Leav-
enworth had confessed to participa-
ton in several of the murders and
had implicated a number of persons
in the Usage country.
He is represented az having given
investigators their main lead in I'M
covering a conspiracy which. it is
alleged, was aimed at humiliation of
a family with a 2,O00, 900 fortune as
the stake.
A Systematic Attempt.
The first deaths, now attributed TO
the murder ring, occurred about four
years ago. Shootings in the Usage
country are frequent and it was not
until many months later that the fact
suddenly appeared that death was
being visited upon the Osages not at
random, but with systematic effort
to wipe out family of scattered re-
lationship.
Several local Investigations follow
ed the various deaths. but 1t was
not until about a year ago that Fed
eral and State authorities took I'D a,
definite effort to run the mystery to
earth.
