and, in the unexpected anxiety 1t
aroused, all the petty resentment OF our
Misunderstanding faded from my mind.

never received an answer to that
cable. If Rudy received 1t at all, 1t
was while he was in a state of uncon-
seriousness. Death came with unex-
pected swiftness.
Even as the next two days passed
we did not realize the danger. Mr..
Ullman continued to notify US almost
hourly of each slight change in Rudy's
condition, and the news in his cables
as they came seemed favorable rather
than discouraging.
The actual presage of his death came
through psychic communications.
Rudy's Call to Wife.
II happened that as guest at the
chateau at that particular time was
0eorge Wehner, the distinguished Amer
ican psychic, who had led us far along
the ways of understanding of the spirit
world. It had become our custom to
have family sittings from time to time,
with Mr.. Wehner acting as medium.
Wednesday evening during one Of
these sittings, while Mr.. Wehner was
IN O state of deep trance, Rudy came
through" We were first aware of his
presence by mutterings of few al
most incoherent words and the repeated
calling Of auntte's name and mine. This
did not surprise or terrify us.
Those who have investigated psychic
phenomena know that it is not at all
unusual for the consciousness Of per-
son still living In the earth-world to
manifest itself or communicate ct q
distance while the body is sleeping or
unconscious. On waking the person
may remember these experiences In the
form of a dream.
Friday morning my cable from Mr..
UllmRn brought us news that Rudy was
better-greatly improved and on the
road to recovery. We were enormously
eheered.
That evening we were impressed to
have another sitting. Almost imme-
diately after Mr.. Wehner was In trance
Black Feather, Rudy's Indian friend,
who once had saved his life, came
through" to tell us that he was the chief
and would not leave him. Then Jenny
spoke, saying she had been constantly
with Rudy since the beginning of his
illness. He himself had seen her and
called her name as he was taken to
the ambulance.
Called for Jenny.
In confirmation Of this I received
o letter from my sister in New York
the very week of Rudy's passing, CIV
ing me details of his illness; explain
ing among other things that Mr. and
Mrs. Ullman had told her that Rudy
kept calling the name of Jenny" as

answer the night before, but had re-
fused to accept 1t as truth, for what we
do not wish to realize we stif1e in our
hearts.
Monday morning 7 awoke to find the
atmosphere of my room heavy with
the perfume of tuberoseS-and then I
knew Rudy had passed on. When
on Tuesday the delayed cables arrived
announcing his death, was grateful
to the prophecy from the other world
whose kindness and understanding had
softened the cruelty Of this news.
The third day after his passing Rudy
came to us for the first time, led by his
mother, Gabrielle. His attitude of
mind, resentment at having been taken
at the height Of his career while his
work he felt was not yet completed,
made this first contact an unhappy one.
He spoke not clearly but incoherently
remained with us only moment,
called auntie's name and left suddenly.
Then his mother spoke to us. She
was almost distracted by his state of

was the benefit of success that had
brought him to such bitterness and
anguish?
Rudy's Attitude Natural.
Then others came to comfort us.
They explained in beautiful way that
Rudy's attitude was only natural. With
all the force of world thought and grief
directed upon him, nothing else was
possible. We must have patience, and
each Of us try to help him in our sew
eral ways. They, too, would help him,
and this first darkness and despair
! would soon pass.

VERBAL AGREEMENT
 UPHELD BY COURT
Plaintiff Wins Case Despite Ab-
 Sence Of Written Proof

The question of whether a debt made without written proof was collectible in court was decided in the affirmative by Acting Judge Ed ward A. Mag today when he filed a judgment for s27O with interest of s3S.35 in a suit brought by AL mas Mooshegian against Martha and Paul Sagherian.
 It was claimed at court session of several hours duration yesterday that Mrs. Mooshegian loaned Mrs. Sagherian $500 on December S, 1924, and that only s13O of the amount has been repaid. The only proof of the transaction was the testimony of several witnesses for the plaintiff. The defendants coun- sel, Judge Frederick B. Hungerford, claimed the plaintiffs witnesses were in conspiracy but Acting Judge Mag could find no founda- ton for the claim. The judge said in a statement filed in court that although the testimony was conflict ing the truth of the plaintiffs claim was supported by impressive testi- mony.
 A transfer of property from Mar tha to Paul Sagherian was declared fraudulent by the presiding judge.
 Attorney Andrew S. Aharonian represented the plaintiff.

AT THE STRAND

Davey Lee (Sonny Boy), that unique and highly talented lad who has scored so tremendously with Al Jolson in his talking and singing pictures, will headline one of the greatest stage offerings ever pre- sented at the Strand theater three days beginning today.
 The boy. with his unusual man. nerisms and keen theatrical value, puts on an act much as any charm ing kid would. His directors have not endeavored to give him ve- hicle filled with witty lines an adult could say only with difficulty, but the stage and talk his own little talk just like he wants to and just as he will. It is needless to say that a packed audience holds breathless- lv on his every line. Davey is a great deal more than a vaudeville act-he is a novel personality and something new to the stage.
 Utmost care is taken that the child, pitched headlong into a career, does not lead an unnatural life. His days are planned carefully, with ample care exercised to pro- vide him plenty of sleep and play.
 The lovable little chap will un- doubtedly make a smashing hit here for his exceptional abilities and per sonal appeal have made a deep im- pression on local theatergoers. See him, bring the kiddies. Continuous shows daily from 1:30 to II p. m. There will also be four other acts. The feature picture on the same bill with Davey Lee will be "Oh Sailor Behave"

 Leguia and his son Juan are now in prison in Lima. Juan Leguia has demanded his release on the grounds that he is a British subject, having served in the Royal Air Force during the World War.
 The former president passes his time in prison in silence and almost unbroken breeding, the Lima pre- feet, It. Col. J. J. Bueno, told the United Press.
 Since his imprisonment he has spoken to nobody except his son Juan, who is in the same cell" Bu- enc said. "He has not read a news paper or book. He lies or sits on his bed all day. saying nothing"
 Leguia receives a special diet and is visited by physicians daily. The government has taken every precau- ton to guard his health, Bueno said although he is not actually delicate.
 'Leguia's cell is comfortably fur nished with an electric stove and artificial sun lamps" Bueno said. He has all the comforts possible within prison limits, but his depres- sion continues.
 'Leguia spoke only once during the journey from San Lorenzo Island to Lima. He said, I hope that the servant boy who went to the island with me will be freed I promised him that the servant would be lib- erated immediately"

Ottawa. Sept. IS P>-The measure authorizing tariff increases. the third and last bill of Premier R. B. Bennett's program designed to re- lieve unemployment and stimulate Canadian business, was up today for third reading in the house of com mons.

 The government expects to have all three measures through both houses in time to adjourn the spe- cial session of parliament by Satur- day
 Mackenzie King. liberal leader, led the opposition fight in the house of commons yesterday on the meas ure to increase the tariff.
 He charged the measure would not mitigate unemployment but would increase the cost of living and the cost of production in Canada.
 He accused the government of re- sorting to coercion to effect enact ment of the tariff changes under a threat that Canada will not be rep resented by government leaders at the imperial conference of the Brit ish Empire unless the tariff bill is passed between now and next Mon day. He asked that the tariff bill be postponed until after the confer ence.
 Says Farmers Will Move.
 One effect of the increased tariff, he said, would be to cause people to move from the farms to the cities because of increased living costs while prices of farm products would not increase correspondingly.

RACKETEERS SEEK
 UNION DOMINANCE
10 Officers Raided in Battle
 Against Chicago Gangs

Chicago, Sept. IS R>-The police hunt for 26 public enemies was revealed today as just a segment of a concerted finish battle against rackets and hoodlums.
 Raids on 10 labor union offices directed by States Attorney Swan son spread the warfare into another sector yesterday and resulted in police seizure of records which are expected to shed light on the ef- forts of underworld gangs to muscle into control of reputable labor groups.
 Entered on Warrants
 The union offices were entered by seven squads of detectives under au- thority of warrants from Chief Jus tice John J. McGoorty of the crim- inal code, who inaugurated the ma jor offensive against the gangs in a special charge to the September grand jury.
 The police squads struck simul- taneously so there would be no chance for removing or riding the records. Assistant States. Attorneys Mueller and Lounsbury, in charge Of racketeer prosecutions, said that most of the unions involved were under the domination of George (Red) Barker, William (Three Finger Jack) White and similar characters. Both Barker and White were listed by the Chicago crime commission as public enemies and were on the list of the 26 sought on vagrancy warrants.
 Among the union offices raided included; The Municipals Clerks Union, said to acknowledge Danny Stanton, also a public enemy" as leader; the Union of Commission Wagon Drivers, of which Bernard O'Donnell, two of whose brothers are listed as public enemies is business agent; Newspaper Wagon Drivers Union, said to be controlled by Anthony (Red) Kissane and John Barry; Coal Teamsters' Union which with It's subsidiaries is re- ported controlled by Barker and White; and the Filling Station Own CTS Union, said to be dominated by James Belcastro, also a public enemy"
 Seize Marble Union Books
 The raiders seized books and papers of the Marble Setters' Union and the Billposters, and Billers' Union while a scrutiny was to be made of the records of the Ticket Takers and Ushers Union in an ef- fort to ascertain if Barker held some connection with it.
 The prosecutors announced they would seek in the mass of seized records some inkling as to how these hoodlums, gangsters an dex- convicts obtained union jobs" and also whether their control was obtained by use of the pistol.
 Though Acting Commissioner of Police Alcock offered additional compensation for any policeman bringing in one of the public enemies" the onls one apprehended was Danny Stanton who happened 10 be in a cell when the warrants were issued. He obtained his re. lease by providing s15,4Oo bonds.
