of Anthony, Kan,, were severely if
not fatally injured late today when
tliir airplane crashed into a WWoot
smokestack at the Macon, Dublin

fire and fell in the yards between
two railroad trains.

sought tu "shake down'' Tex Kickard
for j.MMo bcioie 1. 1 recent tn-l
and aciuiital on complaint of a 15-star-old
girl and a counter-charge
'that the affair was concocted to
'create a favorable atmophere for
! the accused promoter during hi
trial, were rcortei as iimiuet in
the suspension of two agents of the
soiirty.
'Ihe report was iMied by Assis
tant District Attorney 1'icora who
prosecuted I'ickaid. He said the
mjHIiiuii of the two agents Ii.iJ
brrn atinoumrd to him by (kneral
Mauacer Coulter of the society. The
suspension was for "failure to re
pot t what appeared to he an attempt
to shake down RicUrd," l'ecora, de
clared he bad been iiilormed.
l'ccora said that he understood the
aueut were snspcaded for deliber
ately withholding the facts of their
meeting with Rickard.
This meeting was in a saloon
February 27, according to an ac
count of it which l'ccora said was
given to him during the recent trial
hy William Kelhrher, agent for the
Children's society. Kullcher's story,
he said, was that Rickard met four
of the agents and that their spokes
man told the promoter that for $50.
0U) they could Ret the Rirls fo
change their stories, thereby weak
ening the case against him. As the
story goes, Rickard said, "I won't
pay a cent, I'm innocent," and walked
out.
During the trial Max D. Steurer,
counsel for Rickard, tried to bring
the matter out but failed. Previous
ly JVcoia, said, "l.e knew cf it and
juiiml it pot inmpctrtti as evidence,"
inrt the nial be sa4 be bad
fiuicd two Kf the society agents,

! brmed an earlier Impression that the
vh"l thing was a scheme in Intuit
of Rickard, "concocted in create a
situation that would enable those In
tereitci in bis behalf to show there
was an attempt to shake down
Rickard and develop an atmosphere
lasorablc to Kakard in bis trial."

statement tiled with the Interstate
Commerce commission by the De
troit. Toledo and 1 ronton, show that
for December it had incurred a deficit
in operating expenses over revenues
of flJMmo. This was the first
month since its purchase by Henry
lord in which it has not shown a
profit, although it previous career
was marked by heavy losc.
1'reviously monthly earnings, how
ever, brought the roads' rclutn fur
the year under the l-'ord management
into the profit clays and for the en
tire year l.'l its revenue above ex
penses were fixed at $4J.W0. Inter
est on bonded indebtedness is not
classed as an operating expense by
the commission and consequently is
not reported.
Mr. Ford's attempts to reduce
rates on the line, which have been
under the commission's examination
frequently, were given another re
buff today. An order was issued
suspending a freight tariff which the
Detroit, ioledo and Ironton pro
posed to make effective April 1 and
by which coal rates in the Ironton
district would have been cut " 10
cents per ton until July 30. The
usual investigation to determine
whether the cut constituted a dis
crimination against other producing
territory will be instituted.
