Army of oc- cupation, his claim being that he understood his first wife was dead at the time of his second marriage, developed in police court this mOrn- ing when Cardinals case which was continued Saturday, came up for dis position. Pending a reply from Wife No. l to an inquiry by the police as to whether she intends to prosecute Cardinal for bigamy, Judge filling this morning ordered a continuance of the case until Thursday morning. Cardinal is charged with assaulting Wife No. Saturday morning when she refused to get out of bed and make his breakfast. Attorney David l.. Nair appeared for him in court today.
 Wife Reported Dead
 According to investigation over the weekend by Detective Sergeant George C. Ellingcr and Attorney Nair, Cardinal ordered an allotment from his army pay, made out to Wife No. 1, while he was serving in Germany, but the government re- turned the money to him and he understood she had died. Falling in love with q German girl, Cardinal woocd her and obtained her promise to come 10 the United States and marry him, which she did, the mar riagc taking place in New York City.
 Subsequently, Wife No. 1 com municatcd with Cardinal, asking him to return to her. Nonplussed by this development, and preferring to live with his war bride, Cardinal remain ed away from Indiana, but made an investigation, which, he claims, brought him the information that Wife No. had married at least two other service men, the police say, cvidcntally planning to become bene- ticiary of their war risk insurance in the event of their death.

SAVING OF s4S,OOO
 BY PAYING BILLS
State Takes Advantage of Dis.
 count Clauses

Westport, Aug. 25. GP - State Comptroller Frederick M. Salmon. who has inaugurated a sew system Tor payment of state bills, reports a saving to the state of more than S4S,00O, exclusive of trade or special discounts, during the first year of the new system. During the fiscal year from July 1, 1925, to July l, 1928, the new system, of taking ad- vantage of cash discounts offered netted the state exactly s4S,551.O2.
 Asked for Account
 In furtherance of Governor Trum- bulls thrift policy and the national administrators economy example. Comptroller Salmon asked the board of control in January, 1925, for the authority to appoint an expert ac- countant who would investigate the states disbursements and ascertain if here was any possible means of affecting a saving.
 Has the Facts
 Robert A, Knight of Fairfield was appointed to his position and the saving of more than s4S,00O by the employment of one man sounds like one of those investments often heard about but seldom seen. How ever, Comptroller Salmon has all the facts in his office, and in his state men he has tabulated the various departments and state institutions according to the amount of their savings through this system of pay ing bills.
