MASTER SWINDLER
SOUGHT BY POLICE
Chicago, Feb. 3.—A real master
mind directing a scientific organized
band of swindlers, a man whose clev

said, will run far over $1,000,000.
The ramifications of the scheme are
not yet made public, but it is known
that Imnks in New York, Cleveland,
Sun Francisco and Chicago were vic
tims. llow many others there may be
and to what extent the losses may
run, investigators themselves today ad
mitted they did not know.
They helieve that the plan was car
ried out simultaneously all over the
country after months of preparation
by men skilled in banking methods
and directed by a highly capable bus!

Senate Group Has
Favorable Report
l pon German Pact
Committee Fails to Remove
Objection. However, Which
Long Has Prevented Any
Ratifieation.
Washington, Feb. 3.—The German
(ommercial treaty was favorably re
ported today by the senate foreign
relations committee with reserva
lions approved by the State Depart
ment, which failed, however, to re
move the objection which has pre
vented ratification of the convention
for more than a year.
I'nder the reservations, the State
depaitmenl s policy against discrim
ination In fayor of American ship
ping would remain In full force for
at least a year, hut thereafter it
could be changed upon ninety days
notice to Germany.
Will laninch Fight.
After the committee had acted,
chairman Borah said the reserva
tions left the matter of policy with
Congress, but opponents of the. treaty
took an opposite view and made it
plain they would launch a fight in
the senate for a specific statement
Ihat-^he determination of future pol
Icy should rest with congress and
not with tlie executive department.
Some proponents of the treaty said
favorable action had been taken in
the committee merely to get the
treaty on the floor of the senate for
thrashing out there of differences as
to whether the door is to be closed to
the stimulation of the American mer
chant marine through the Imposition
of preferential tariff duties on im
ports in American bottoms.
Three Sets Proposed.
Members of the committee <11*
closed that when Secretaries Hughes
and Hoover appeared yesterday to
urge ratification, three sets of res
ervations were proposed: the one re
ported today, another leaving the
declaration of policy to congress and
the third embodying the favored na
tion clause of some existing treaties,
Resides the reservations with re
spect to the merchant marine, the
committee approved another under
which the treaty could not be con
strued to affect existing statutes of
either country in relation to the Im
migration of aliens or the right of
either to enact such statutes. This
reservation was made necessary, it
was explained, by enactment of the
permanent Immigration restriction
law, since the negotiation of the
treaty In 1923.

Hog Production
Increase Urged
in Farm Reports
Department of Agriculture
Recmmends Same Corn
Acreage as 1924; Dairy
Expansion Not Good.
Washington, Feb. 3.—A "consider
able increase” In hog production next
fall and a corn acreage “about the
same as in 1924,” were recommended
by the Department of Agriculture In
the aecond section of it» annual out
look report.
"Beef cattle prices this year,” the
report said, “should average some
what higher than last year-, and those
for sheep and wool should he at least
on a par with those of 1924.”
Dairymen were urged in the report
to make no further expansion in their
Industry. Higher egg prices were
forecast during the peak production
season of the year, hut the report
warned that poultry prices may he
lower.
“Hog producers,” the report said,
“enter 1925 with 1* per cent fewer,
hogs than a year ago, and there 19
every indication that prices during
the next 10 months will be higher
than at any time since 1920. Hix to
eight million fewer pigs will he Iwrn
this spring than last."
Old Stocks Smaller.
Fewer sows will farrow next fall
than farrowed last fall if producers
respond to the unfavorable relation
of corn and hog prices as they have
done In the past.
"While the 1924 corn crop will prob
ably be well cleared up, an Increased
acreage in 1925 does not appear ad
visable In view of the indicated re
ductlon In the feeding demand. Stocks
of old corn on farms are likely to be
smaller than usual In the heginninti
of the new crop year, 1925, but It ap
pears that not more than an aver
age crop will be required to supply
the needs of the country for both
feed and commercial purposes.
“Prices for beef cattle for 192".
should average somewhat higher than
for 1924. The industry Is gradually
working Into a more favorable posi
tion, due to the relation of beef to
competing commodltl»a, espei ially
pork. Improved Industrial conditions
and in no small measure to the cat
tleman's own sacrifices. Market re
ceipta will probably be somewhat
smaller than in 1924. All conditions
Indicate that the longtime outlook
for the Industry is even more favor
able. •.

House Joins With
Senate in Plans J
for Anns Meeting
Modifies Language, However,
of Disarmament Amendment
to Navy Appropriation
Kill. Lansing Delay.
Washington, Feb. .1. —The house
concurred late today In the senate
disarmament amendment to the navy
appropriation hill, hut insisted on a
slight modification of Its language.
The amendment, originally proposed
by Senator King, democrat, Utah,
was changed to read that the presi
dent he “requested" io invite other
nations into conference for discussion
of further limitation of land and sea
armaments, instead of "authorized
and requested."
This alteration, made at the sug
gestion of Representative French, re
publican, Idaho, in charge of the bill,
prevented complete adoption by the
house of the conference report al
ready approved by the senate. Senate
concurrence on the modified provision
is necessary before the bill can go to
the president.
The house accepted the armament
section by a viva voce vote, Repre
sentative Byrnes, democrat, South
Carolina, author of a similar rider
attached to last year’s navy bill, join
ing French in urging the modifica
tion.
Prior to this action the hoi^e ac
cepted a number of senate amend
ments to the bill, among them one
appropriating 1100.0(10 for a subma
rine base extension at Key West,
Fla , $20,000 for Improvement to
building 138 at the Portsmouth Of.
H.) navy yard; another allotting
1751,000 for additional naval hospital
facilities and one which would pro
hibit a naval or marine corps officer
while on leave of absence from re
ceiving pay or allowances for a
period in excess of that for which he
Is entitled to full pay unless the
president otherwise directs.

$irs. Sequin and four children were
saved almost miraculously, he fami

quin had gone to the barn when the
oldest boy, 10, started to rebuild the
fire, which he thought was entirely
out, by pouring into the stove kero
sene from a five-gallon can, which
exploded, throwing oil and fire to all
parts of the room.
Mrs. Sequin and their^four children
were in the room at the time. She
grabbed her 18-month-old baby by the
j.u-m and fled out of the door to the
[barn, while the oldest boy. who re
ceived hardly a burn from the explo
sion, and the two smaller boys fol
lowed their mother out the door, all
escaping with their hair slightlv

Kimball. Neb.. Feb. Jealous and
enraged because hie wife visited at
the home of Jerry Mandrell. a friend.
Kd Griffith, life insurance agent, last
night shot and killed Mandrell and
dangerously wounded his wife.
The H’heels of justice began to
move immediately after the shooting.
Griffith was taken before a coroner s
jury, witnesses of the shooting were
called and Griffith was held on a
charge of murder In the first degree.
Griffith refused throughout tha in
quest and even after he had been
locked In a cell, to tell why he had
fired the shots. He admitted freely
that he had deliberately attacked
Mandrell. but became silent when
anyone asked "why?"
At the coroner's Inquest It was
brought out that Griffith drove to
the Mandrell home about 6 last nlgl\i.
Near the place he met his wife, forc
ed her to accompany him and held
her near him while he fired the shots.
Mandrell had been 111 and confined
to his home for the last 10 days.
Mrs. Mandrel] was sitting In the room
with her husband when the Griffiths
entered.
Surrenders to f'liief.

neared 'J;e center of the room at a
point directly In front of Mandrell
he pushed his wife to one side, drew
a revolver from his pocket and fired
at Mandrel!.
Mandrell rolled from his chair
the floor, dead. Griffith waited
moment, apparently to make aui»
that the man was dead, then turned
cn his wife and fired two shots Into
her body,
Mrs. Griffith was taken to a doctor
at once, lute doctor said that she
had a slight chance of recovery.
As soon as possible after Griffith
had surrendered himself the coroner
was notified. He at once called a
jury together, sent officers to round
up everyone who might have heard
the shots or seen the women and
the men leave the Mandrell horn*
and started his Inquest.
