JUDGES ASSAIL
CITY JAIL EDICT
BY MORRISSEY
Chief Had No Right to
Issue Order, Assert
Court Heads.

Order issued today by Chief Mike
Morrissey for drastic changes in
conducting the city prison brought
sharp condemnation from Munich
pal Judges William H. Sheaffer and
Clifton r. Cameron.
Both judges said they had not
been given copies of the order, and
read it for the first time from copies
shown them by newspaper men.
Apparently, on the face of it,
this is very foolish order" Sheaffer
said.
THE chief had no right to issue
such order" Cameron commented.
Follows Court Orders
The changes at the prison ostensi-
bly, for the purpose of curbing the
activities of professional bondsmen
and removing the implication that
police might be favoring certain
bondsmen, followed a recent edict of
Sheaffer and Cameron that no per-
sons held should be released except
on their orders.
AS a result of the changes, two
men have been returned to the uni
formed ranks of the police depart
ment.
Pinkey G. Davis and Elmer Clary,
who with four other men comprised
a turnkey and bailiff staff, have
been ordered back to regular patrol
man duty. Three turkeys and a
bailiff, the latter to be a relief man.
now comprise the Jail staff.
Pay telephones have been in
stalled in the Jail. These are for
use of prisoners outgoing calls only.
If bondsman telephone a turnkey
or natron that he has been called
by a prisoner, the latter will be
asked regarding the matter. and no
hondsman will be permitted to act
unless called by a prisoner.
Sheaffer Issues Warning
Ban on incoming calls means that
inquiries regarding persons held
must be made in person.
IF ever call the prison and or
der a prisoner released on his own
recognizance, the call would better
be needed, or somebody will be in
court the next morning" Sheaffer
said.
Turkeys and matrons are Off
GERS of the court" Cameron de-
clared, following his statement that
Morrissey had no right to issue the
order.
Every person under arrest,
Cameron asserted, has a right to
receive phone calls from friends OF
relatives, Just as he has right to
apprise them of his arrest by
phone"

BY THOMAS B. MORGAN

ROME, July 20. = Dino Grandi,
youthful and popular foreign min
lister, resigned in periodic shake
up in the Fascist cabinet today and
became a likely candidate for the
ambassadorship to Washington.
Premier Benito Mussolini assumed
the portfolio of foreign affairs and
of corporations. Only three cabinet
posts remained unchanged.
If Grand becomes ambassador to
Washington, the appointment would
be announced only after the present
ambassador, Giacomo de MARITIME
completes his service there. 1t also
was possible that Grandi might be
made ambassador to London.
1t is Mussolini's policy to rotate
able men of the Fascist party in of
fee so that as many as possible
will be in touch with various gov
eminent departments and be pre-
pared for any eventuality.
Grandi's heavy program of work
has weighed heavily on him. He
has been losing weight, and was ex-
pected to take a long rest.
Seven cabinet posts remained un-
changed after today's rotation.

Police Hold Three After
Dynamite Discovery;
Grill Parker.

Plans of De Witt Parker, Beech
Grove. an ex-convict, to return to
his former racket of safe blowing,
we're halted by his arrest on sus-
picion Of burglary, police revealed
today after questioning Of Parker
and two companions, Mrs. Marquee
rite Isley, 1902 South Emerson ave-
nue., and Kenneth Smith, 81, of
5505 English avenue.
The trio has been held on va
grancy charges during the investi-
cation, and Parker probably will be
reslated today on charges Of bur-
glary detectives said.
Dynamite, caps and fuse for Par
ker's use were purchased by the
woman in hardware store at Five
Points after Parker had driven her
there and had her make the pur-
chase, because he was afraid of de-
lection, detectives said.
Led to Confession
Robbery June 80 of the Brad
Snodgrass machine shop, 2514 Beth
Ell street, of an electric drill and
cutting toll in which Parker was
suspected, led to questioning of Mrs.
Isley and her confession of the dy-
Mantle purchase, detectives said.
Smith was implicated when Mrs.
Isley told of driving Parker to
Smiths home, where the tools were
left. Smith, when questioned, told
detectives he accepted the drill and
cutting tool in payment of repair
work he had done on Parker's car.
Smith said he gave Parker SIS and
took the tools. He admitted filing
serial numbers and names from the
tools and gave detectives names of
men to whom they were sold.
Admits Taking Tools
Part of the dynamite was found
ten days ago in a fruit jar when
detectives went to the Isley home
and searched under the seat of an
automobile there, at the direction of
Mrs. Isley Later, Parker was found
and arrested for questioning.
Confronted with statements of
Mrs Isley and Smith, Parker con-
fessed stealing the tools, detectives
said.
He also admitted, according to the

CHICAGO, July 2O.-The tragic
prophecy of Mrs. Susan Ballow
fortelling the death Of George Carl
Q grocer, today had brought sud-
den prosperity to her little home In
the heart of Chicago's Little b.
hemia."
While police struggled vainly tc
penetrate the mystery of Carts STAY
ing, the tiny red brick home not
far from, where Mayor Anton j
Cermak spent part of his boyhood
was filled with visitors.
Some we're idle curiosity seekers
anxious for a glance at the mother
~ woman and the pack Of cards from
which she dealt prophecy Of death
seventy-tWo hours before Carl was
found shot to death in his grocery
store.
Others were neighbors, long
convinced of Mrs. BalloW's occult
ability. There was even an occa-
sionsl matron from the Gold Coast
protesting that it was all fanci-
full superstition, but secretly eager
to see what the cards held in store
for her.
Seeress Is clustered
Mrs. Ballow sat in her flower
decked parlor bit .flustered at her
sudden fame. Beside her stood her
daughter-in-law as interpreter, for
despite long years in this country
she still speaks only her native Bo-
hemian.
In the seeress' hands was new
deck of gingham-backed picture
cards. The old deck, which held the
port mt Of Carts death, was dis
carded after five years
Now / can afford to have new
deck" said Mrs BalloW." as she
watched the pile Of 81 bills grow
higher with the constant influx Oh
visitors.
Husband Is Disguised
But Tony Ballow, her husband,
was not so pleased with all the bus
tie in his home.
Cards, pshaw," he said. What
are all these silly people doing here?
When l come home l want my cold
beer and my supper. All I find is
a lot of foolish strangers. BAIL"
Filling a large black pipe with
strong tobacco, he indicated that il
he had anything to say about it,
such goings-on shortly would come
to a halt.

RELIEF ARMIES BOGUS
Salvation Army Troubled by Imita-

Pseudo relief armies" members
of which wear uniforms almost
identical to those worn by Salvation
Army workers, are causing the Sal
walton Army trouble and embarrass-

the Indiana division, said today.
Nearly sixteen armies of various
sorts. most of them without record
of relief work accomplished, are
fiourishing within the state, Major
Murphy said. Their work has be-

that the Salvation Army has given
up the use of tambourines in most

particle to attract the eye.
Beautiful Fireplaces.
The fireplaces are really a work of
art, being constructed of pretty stones
and mortar. This work was pains
takingly done by Johan Sorensen
whose artistic ability in this line has
created a work which would be well
come in the finest homes. Johan's
work in this respect and his donations
have won for him the warm appreci-
alton of every legion member.
The fireplace in the upstairs of the
cabin is further enhanced in beauty
by hearth of Nemadji tile manu-
featured by c. ]. Dodge of Moose
Lake, who donated them and picked
and matched the colors himself. This
bit of the work made possible by Mr..
Dodge will carry with it in senti-
ment the warmth of each AskOv
legion and auxiliary members heart
as it carries in reality the warmth
of the CHEEKY fire in the fireplace. The
auxiliary proved itself an invaluable
friend and aide by helping along with
the finances and furnishings of the
cabin.
Ever since the organization of the
post in Askov need has been felt
for a club hall-some place where the
legion and auxiliary members could
meet and where their organizations
could call home and this accomplish
ment is an answer to long dream
