Monaghan, district attorney, today
attempted to link the discovery by
his investigators Of fifteen deposits
in one bank totaling $10,246, 220 48
with profits of bootleggers and
brides to police officials.
The names used for the accounts,
four of them running over a million
dollars each, were fictitious, the dis
trict attorney believes.
After questioning, j. S. McCulloch,
president of the Union Bank and
Trust Company, where the deposits
were made, Monaghan said:
I'VE are endeavOring to learn
whether there is any connection be-
tween these bank accounts which we
believe were opened by bootleggers
and other law violators. and police
corruption,
80 far bank officials have not
been able to throw the slightest
light on the identity Of the persons
who held these accounts apparently
under fictitious names"
The district attorney said he be-
lieved there was an interlinking Of
the deposits and added that he be-
lieved $1,14o,23O.22 was in duplicate
deposits.
All the accounts have been closed,
the last one on January Of this year.

failed to show up at all.

rivals.
The Chicago plane had two pas
sengers and the Louisville plane
three passengers.
Jose said he expected to spend the
remainder of the week working out
difficulties in operation of the
routes and in planning for start of
three additional routes TO Cleveland

NEW YORK, Oct. 23-Herbert
Hoover does most of his reading in
the strangest hours of the twenty

morning! He sleeps before and
after that period, averaging be-
tween five and six hours a night of
slumber.
Governor Smith does his reading
at the more conventional hours Of
the day and evening.
Hoover just now is making
biography and autobiography of
great statesmen his literary hobby,
topped off with innumerable de-
tective stories.
Smith reads at the breakfast
table; newspapers, bills, public docu-
ments. lie detests tragedy in
literature, loves orations and
humor, rarely opens a novel or
mystery tale.
These are the reading habits of
the leading presidential candidates
as presented in the October issue
OF The BoOkman by their respective
biographers, William Hard and
Henry Moskowitz.
Hoover always retires fairly early.

between 2 and 5 o'clock he has a
convivial party al by himself. He

fruits from the California basket

kick in bills. reports and public
documents. These constitute his
detectives stories and his novels.
Sad tales do not interet him. That
there is enough sadness in human
life without having to read about it
is his point of view. He loves the
light touch in literature and in the
drama-and he loves orations."

Sell at 10 Cents.

Little sugar pears at Is cents a
pound were the only survivors of
the homegrown products at the city

Persian mellon from California at
