Obtaining LIQUOR
Investigating Goshute Tribe in
Eastern Utah

Salt Lake City, Utah. July 6 ~
Efforts to determine whether alco-
hol may have filtered into the camps
Of Goshute Indians in eastern Utah
to find expression in the throb of
tom-toms, were under way today
following reports that tribesmen had
threatened one reservation official
and sought the removal of another.
An unofficial investigation of re-
ports that the Indians We're holding
nightly councils to express the op-
position to 3. Z. Brigance, agent at
the Deep Creek reservation, was
started by prohibition officers After
a tour OF the reservation, the Off
GERS announced they would make
every efforts to keep liquor from the
Indians. They expressed the belief
that unless the tribesmen are reused
by alcohol. they would not make any
show Of violence in their campaign
IN which they are understood to
seek the removal Of Brigance, to-
gether with DIR. L. A. Farrow, su-
perintendent of the seven Indian
agencies in Utah.
Ignore Pleas
The prohibition officers yesterday
heard the Indians charge that Bri-
gance and Farrow had ignored their
pleas for medical attention during
an influenza epidemic which took
the lives of forty tribesnen last
spring. From other sources it was
stated that Brigance himself WAS
bedridden for five weeks while. the
epidemic was at its height.
Brigance was also charged with
molesting young Indian girls and
with having bought an automobile
with Indian bureau funds. These
charges were cmphatically denied
by the agent.
One of the Goshute's chief rea-
sons for their opposition to him.
Brlgance said, was his demand that
young couple Of the tribe conform

LOEWENSIEIN HAD POLICIES
Life Insurance Oh Ifnancicr Ran to
$4,000. OOO-Suictdc Included In
Death Payment of Some.

London. July 6.-P1Newspap ers
today said that several insurance
policies had been placed in London
recently to cover the event of AL
fred LoeWenstein' death.
The estimates of the total amount
ran all the way from 100000 to
$500, 900. 1t was stated that some Of
these policies specifically included
suicide among the risks covered.
There was no information as to who
placed the policies. but in some
quarters it was believed that per
sons holding stock in companies
with which the Belgian financier
wac identified had placed them to
cover possible losses in event of his
death.
Those newspapers which regard
ed his death as suicide sought for a
motive in vain. The Daily Express
said that although Loewenstein had
met financial reverses in recent
months he was still at the time Of
his death worth between five and six
million pounds at the present price
of his shares.
