Waggoner is
Surprised at In
sanity Defense
Telluride Banker, oh Way to New
York, Plays Cards With Escort;
Reiterates His Motive.
C. D. Waggoner, president of the
Bank of Telluride, Colo., who faces
Indictment in New York for swin
dling six banks out of half a mil
lion dollars, passed through Omaha
early Monday night under guard of
two federal deputy marshals on his
way to the metropolis.
' The little man who was able to
"do" the New York banks was bus
ily engaged In a game of "solo" with
his guards, Hugh L. Patton and'F.
M. Bruner, in a private compartment
as the train stopped here. He was
puffing on the short end of what had
once been a long cigar and his eyes
laughed a welcome from behind shell
rimmed glasses.
"I'm feeling fine rita a, nice trip
we're having and as long as the boys
treat me as nice and don't beat me
too often at this game I think I'll
enjoy myself," he said. -
Told that his attorney, Samuel P.
Crump, had announced Monday that
insanity would be his defense, he
laughed. "It's the first I heard of It.
I don't know what is going on, of
course, but that's a surprise to me."
"How were you able to fool the
New York banks the-way you did?"
he was asked. 7 t
"I didn't fool them. . They are
probably fond of lis down at Tellu
ride and were trying to help us out,"
he replied.
His eyes sparkled and he puffed a
little faster on the stump of his cigar
when Informed that the New York
federal grand jury, by its action Mon
day, had practically assured Tellu
ride bank depositors the money now
in the bank there. He was plainly
interested. "Is that a fact? I don't
know what has been going on. Don't
even know just how much money
there is to the credit of the bank
now. But if the bank holds it, there's
enough for all depositors and a little
over."
Just about this time Wagogner
played a "solo" and lost by one point. I
"You talked me out of that game," I
he said with a laugh. But another
question he answered with more ser
iousness. "What will I do when
get out of jail? Go back to banking?
Who would want me in a bank?
think I'll get work in a Nebraska
corn field. That's just as good
place to get a start in as anywhere
else."
As the train pulled out Waggon
er was asked, "Did you really do this
all for the sake of your depositors?"
"Unquestionably," he answered.
To Enter Plea of Not Guilty.
Denver, Colo., Sept. 23. insanity
will be the defense of C. D. Waggon
er, president of the Bank of Tellu
ride. Colo., when he faces a New
York federal jury on an indictment
charging use of the mails to defraud
in connection with his half million
dollar swindle of six New York banks,
Samuel D. Crump, his attorney, an
nounced today. '
The announcement was made co
incident with the start of Waggon
er's trip back to New York from
Cheyenne, Wyo., where he has been
held in jail.
"Insanity is his only defense,"
Mr. Crump said. "He wilt plead not
guilty when arraigned in the New
York federal court and rely on the
evidence during the trial to con
vince the jury that he was not in
his right mind."

his bride, the former Florence Trum

...
Howell Unable
to Give Specific
'Bootleg Facts'
Tells Senate He Thinks That Hoo
verY Demand Is "Unfair" to
Ask for Speciflo Instances
Washington. Sept. 24. Another
lively prohibition debate swept over
the senate today as a sequel to the
demand of President Hoover for
proof that the prohibition law was
being violated in Washington.
Senator Howell (Neb.), a repub
lican who supported the president's
prohibition views during the cam
paign, retorted it was "unfair" to
expect a senator to give "names and
dates" of liquor law violations as the
president had asked. He read from
prohibition agents' reports which he
said illustrated that prohibition was
disregarded in some of the capital's
exclusive hotels, but added he was
unable to give specific instances as
asked byHoover.
Senator Brookhart (la.), another
republican dry, regaled the senate
with a story of "a prominent Wall
street gentleman," who served liquor
at a dinner he gave for senators here
in the Willard hotel.
The revelation by the Iowa sena
tor was caused by a remark of Sen
ator Smoot (rep., Utah), who pro
tested at this interruption of the dis
cussions on the tariff bill and said
he believed little bootlegging took
place in the capital.
Brookhart Quesies Smoot.
I should like to ask the senator
from Utah," Brookhart said, "if he
ever saw any signs of bootleggers
around any Wall street conventions
or at the hotels in Washington."
Wall street convention!" the as
tonished Senator Smoot interrupted.
What does the senator mean? I
know nothing of such conventions;
I never attended one, and would not
know a bootlegger if I saw one."
"I ask if the senator has ever seen
any signs of bootleggers around the
dinners given by a prominent Wall
street gentleman for the purpose of
greeting newly elected senators,"
Brookhart pursued.
"I will say to the senator I have
not, but I'ask the senator if he has?"
Yes, I have and the senator did ,
too, on the same night," Brookhart
went on.
"I do not know what night it was. j
I will say to the senator that I have i
never been to any place where Ij
have eeen any drinking any club or
anything else. Wall street or other
wise. I will ask the senator to what
place he refers."
"It was the Willard." Brookhart
replied, "when a gentleman named;
Fahey from New York invited newly
elected and re-elected senators to a
dinner there Just to get acquainted
with them."
"I was not there," Smoot flung
back.
"Oh, yes, the senator was there."
"I do not recall it."
"I saw the senator there."
"I cannot recall it. If I was there, i
I did not see any liquor."
"No the senator did not get any
liquor."
I did not say get it; I said see
it "
IIT' I a t T 1, T .- 1.-
hart went on, "were under the table
with a curtain around it, and all
one had to do was to reach down and
get his flask and put it in his hip
pocket."
"The senator did not do that, I
know; he told me he did not," the
Iowan added as the senate and gal
leries resounded with laughter. Smoot
ended the debate by again saying he
did not recall the incident.
Senator Howell gave the senate
reports of alleged prohibition viola
tions at the Carlton Hotel club and
of drinking at other prominent hos
telrles and said, "If you close one
of those great hostelries you will see
real enforcement."
He suggested that Major General
Smedley Butler had demonstrated at
Philadelphia that he had the cour
age and resource to dry up a large
city if given co-operation, and ad
vised that the marine officer be
brought here to dry up the capital.
The debate ended with Senators
Jones (rep., Wash.), author of the
Jones act, and Connally (Tex.),
democratic dry, congratulating How

For some time Omaha bread trucks
have been coming to Weeping Water
and as there was a bakery here it
was thought well that as it was a
great expense to maintain the busi
ness and make the town of Weeping
Water better, it would be nothing
more than right that the Omaha
wagons be made to pay a tax for do
ing business, as an occupation tax
was assed against them. The Omaha
and refused to purchase bread from
the bread wagons, and so the two
wagons do not come any more.
That is all right, for the Weeping
Water bakery . makes better bread
than the Omaha bread anyway. Try

Head of the
Bankers to Chain
Store Men
Be Fair to the Community Declares
President Craig Hazelwood;
Services of the Bank.
Chicago, Sept. 23. Delegates to
the National Chain Store associa
tion's convention today were warned
by Craig H. Hazelwood, president of

that they must court the friendship
and good will of communities where
in chain stores are established.
In a speech prepared for present
ation at a luncheon this noon. Hazel
wood asserted that the rapid spread
of chain systems throughout the
country has made the local merchant
more alert and aggressive and, in
many cases, has made the community
banker disgruntled.
"We can have fair play and -a
square deal between the powerful
chain arid the small business and per
