its problems.

three important detectives.

ton, which the defendant motion
contended were incorporated In the
complaint.
Judge Guilford ruled the complaint
set up only one cause Of action, but
added the pleadings were not drawn
with care. The court directed the
plaintiff be allowed 10 days to change
certain sections of the complaint, In
which, the ruling said, the allegations
were intermingled in such manner a.
not to be in logical sequence and tina!
some essential language was omitted

Charge Violating Contract
The Wheat Growers association
brought suit on the charge the Farm
ers' National through failure to carry
out certain contracts had ruined the
credit rating Of the plaintiff and re-
suited in the financial failure of the
association.
A memorandum attached to his or.
der by Judge Guilford included hi
Interpretation Of the real allegation.
Of the complaint.
This was that the North Dakota
Montana Wheat Growers association
charged the Farmers National Grain
corporation fraudulently failed and
refused to perform its obligations un-
der the national farm board act; that
instead Of encouraging and aiding
producer and controlled CO.

with unknown parties to wreck and
destroy the, Wheat Growers associa-
ton and other like associations and
force them out Of business.

Further allegations. as interpreted
by the judge, were that the grain cor
poration made false representations
to induce the Wheat Growers associ-
alton to sign a contract with it June
10, 1880. and that the grain corpora
ton on April S, 1891, in violation OF
this contract. without written notice
as the contract provided, failed, neg
lected and refused" to continue to IL
nance the Wheat Growers associa-

acy the grain corporation circulated
false reports to grain exchanges as to
the solvency Of the Wheat Growers
association.

BLOODY SHIRT AIDS
ILLINOIS POLICE IN
SEARCH FOR BANKER
Garment Is Found in Creek;
Discover Wallet in Sus-
poets Home

Springfield, ILL.,, Aug. 6.-P)-A
bloody shirt was found in Sugar
creek Saturday and a wallet belong
ing to John B. Colegrove, missing
Taylorville banker, i'll the home of a
man suspected Of his abduction.
Sheriff Fred Weinicke of adjoining
Christian county announced he was
sure Colegrove had been killed and
redoubled the search for his body.
Weinecke said his deputies found
the shirt Saturday morning near the
creek which flows between Spring.
field and Taylorville, and that it
probably belonged to Gamnontoni or
Amelia Puzzuoi, seized here early
Saturday as they washed blood from
an automobile at Gammontonis home.
Search of roads and streams be-
tween the two cities reached feverish
intensity.
Sheriff Sam Metcalf said the wal
let, found in Gammontoni's home,
was engraved with Colegrove's name.
1t contained five railroad passes in
his name, $26 in bank notes. and a
clipping from the Taylorville Breeze
telling of his attempt to raise contri-
buttons to finance his appeal from a
| conviction in connection with the
closing Of his bank in 1929.
Weinicke said he would question
Clara Suitor, a widow living on a
farm near Taylorville. He said he
learned she was close friend and
cOnfidante of the banker and might
have information on threats against
his life or safety. They had kept
company" for years, he said.
Gammontoni and Puzzuoli, who are
| coal miners. were "cloSe-mouthed" on
the trip from Springfield to Taylor
vile, Weinicke said. The men have
not been employed since Illinois
mines closed March 81.
Both were questioned regarding
threats which Taylorville police &C.
cused Gammontoni of making to
Colegrove unless he returned the &c.
600 which Gammontoni lost in the
failure Of the John B. Colegrove and
Company State bank.
The men said the blood on the
cars of Gammontoni and Puzzuoli
was that of rabbits and denied any
connection with the kidnapping Of
Colegrove last night. Neighbors re.
ported hearing scream and saw two
men push Colegrove into an automo.
bile. A broken black jack and buck.
shot were found in the house which
the banker occupied alone.
