ACCOMPLICES SOUGHT.
Onicials Say Waggoner Could Not Have
Acted Alone.

DENVER, September IL R).-Al-
though c. D. Waggoner, after his arrest
at New Castle, Wyo., asserted that he
engineered single -handed the entire
transaction whereby he obtained certi-
fed drafts from New York banks for
half a million dollars on faxed kilograms
sent from Denver, officers here declared
this would have been impossible.
The kilograms were sent from Denver
Friday noon, August 80, and the next
day Waggoner appeared in New York
and obtained the certified drafts from
the Chase National Bank.
Seek Three Women.
Leonard Delue of the Delue Secret
Service, who had been making investi-
cations in Denver In behalf of the
banks, said today that five or six per-
sons had been implicated In sending the
kilograms from Denver. Among the
persons sought are three women.
Grant McFerson, State bank commits
sioner, who has taken over the Bank of
Telluride and the State Bank of Nor
wood, of which Waggoner was presi-
dent, said he had obtained an order
through the Post once Department
to have delivered to his representative
a shipment of $270,000 in securities
from the Hanover National Bank, sent
to the Telluride Bank after Waggoner
had discharged obligations with the
certified checks. McFerson would not
admit that these securities were yet in
his possession.

ISSUE SUBPOENAS.
State Banking Commissioner to Ap
pear Before Grand Jury.

NEW YORK, September IL (P).-The
United States attorneys ONCE here to-
day issued several subpoenas for the
appearance before the grand jury OF o
number of persons" who are believed
to have aided Charles D. Waggoner to
defraud six New York banks out OF
$500,000
Among the subpoenas were ones for
Grant McFerson, State banking COM
tain, cashier of the Bank OF Telluride,
Colo, and an 18-year-old employe OF
the bank, whose name was not dis
"There is no doubt that Waggoner
had accomplices," Emanuel G.. kleid,
assistant district attorney, said, "and
some of the persons named in the SUD-
poenas either Willingly or unwittingly
acted as accomplices in the fraud.
The subpoena for McFerson, klelo
said, calls for him to bring before tne
manipulations, books and papers which
came into his possession at the time
the state took over the Waggoner Bank
of Telluride.
Federal investigators now have traced,
step by step, Waggoners movements
in carrying out his entire scheme.
It was disclosed for the first time to-
day that when Waggoner presented the
first check for $225, 1000, signed by MS
cashier, to the Chase National Bank
here, he demanded the cash. He was
persuaded, however, to merely have the
check certified when bank ofncials eau
toned him about carrying such large
amount of money around.
This check, investigators report, Is
believed to have been cashed by Wag-
goner through q Pueblo, Colo, bank:
but they do not know what became Of
the proceeds.

banks, and neither my wife, my family
nor any Of the officials of the bank
had any connection with the trarsac-
ton.
"At one time the Bank Of Telluride
had deposits Of $1,750,ooo. Then condi-
tions in the town went from bad to
worse. I wanted to get some money and
put 1t in the Telluride Bank so that
the banks of New York couldn't pos
sibly get 1t back
Waggoner said that he was thinking
only of the creditors Of his bank when
he planned the transaction, and that he
knew he had nothing to gain and every
thing to lose.
Il would rather see the New York
banks lose money than the people OF
Telluride" the banker said.
Telluride Bank Credited.
"After sending the kilograms went
to New York and presented the drafts
which transferred the money from the
Chase National Bank to the credit Of
the Bank of Telluride" Waggoner said.
IT had been doing business with the
New York banks for many years. I was
known there and believed they would
accept the drafts.
This idea of evading something all
the time was beginning to get on my
nerves." he said.

men who were drummer boys and bu-
glers in the war carried the brunt of the

some musicians from affiliated organi-
cations.
A lone Texan, stepping high to the
music from the corps, snapped to salute.
The Logan Fife and Drum Corps of the
Sons of Union Veterans of Rockport, ILL.,,
