It was further known that Gran Knslgn nnd
nineteen men wcro huslly engaged billing the

to pay his bill. Yho fellow then transferred
his patronage to the Llndcll , where he staid
nil night without registering. This morning
ho went to the Hotel Ideal , where ho gave
his name as Dan Hlngllng , and was negotiat
ing quarters for twenty-live of the star per
formers of his show when Sol Oppenheltncr

telephoned for the police , but before an ofll-
cer arlrved the fellow disappeared. Ho has
