Former Killisnoo Herring Man Held Tn New York
 Pending Hearing

Henry Klapisch, former herring packer at Killisnoo, is now under arrest in New York City, and is being held for hearing on extra dition to Alaska for alleged passing of worthless checks, it was an- nounced today by United States district attorney H. D. Stabler. He was arrested on January by agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and released on q bond of $2,000 pending the outcome of the hearing.
 This is set for January 15, but probably will be delayed on ac- count of the delay in getting papers back to New York Infrequent mail sailings from here delayed local ac- ton.
 Klapisch is alleged to. have given checks to local business firms, in- cluding Sanitary Grocery, Sanitary Meat Market, Dr. H. Vance and the Gastineau Hotel amounting to $1 ,000. He was arrested last Fall in Seattle by Federal authorities but eXtradition was denied by Gov. Rol- and Hartley. The Washington State chief executive turned him lose aft CT stating that Alaska business men were too eager for business, any way. He said Klapisch had been in Juneau a number of times after the alleged worthless checks were given and nothing was done to him, and he was apparently under the impression Klapisch was big bu5i- ness man as he said Juneau n.er- chants knew he had done $400 00o worth of business here in 1928.

 It was a lovely coincidence, the Earl told reporters, that he should have had such charming travel ing companion. But it seems the coincidence didn't strike the lady's husband in just that way In some way the British Embassy was all hot and bothered.

 Divorce Mills Ready
 By the time they reached Eng lands shores the divorce mill was already under way, with the Major asking to be released from his marriage and naming the Earl as a correspondent. While English society was amazed as the Earl parted with $T50oO0 damages.
