fair?" asked Commissioner Butler.
What Pipkin Said.
"Pipkin, one of the Chadron de
fendants." "What did Pipkin tell you?"
"He contended all the way through
that there was nothing in it and that
Maloney knew nothing of it."
"You talked with Kugel on this mat
ter?" asked Attorney Baker.
"We talked the case over in a gen
eral way, but he did not express any
opinion as to the guilt or innocence
of anybody."
"Did Kugel indicate that he thought
Maloney guilty?"
"No."
Further questioning' failed to elicit
anything material from Chief Dunn,
who admitted he had no definite or
personal information against Maloney.
He stated that he and Maloney had
not been on friendly terms.
People Have Voice.
R. J. Sutton introduced himself as
brother of Detective Paul Sutton and
secretary of United Improvement
Clubs of Omaha. He said:
"Is this hearing to cover up or re
veal the truth? I know Chief Dunn
has made no effort to prove his
charges or to get information. -You
should let Kugel' get the witnesses.
You commissioners have the decision
in this cast on your hands, but the
people of Omaha will have the, last
word." '
Detective Sutton told of the cir
cumstances of going to Chadron in
the first instance: "I went to Kugel's
house when he was ill. I told him
the Omaha Detective association was
a blackmailing organization and that
Pipkin, Barta and Unger were tipping
stuff off to them. That's why I would
not have Pipkin, Barta and Unger
with me when we made raids with
the morals squad. I told Kugel he
should know something of what is
going on in his own department even
if he was sick."
"Do you know anything more to
show that Maloney was connected
with the Omaha Detective associa
tion?" asked Butler.
"I can get many witnesses to snow
that Maloney was connected. There
is Bessie Wilson of 707 South Six
teenth street and there are others."
At this juncture the council ad
journed, with the understanding that
all witnesses would be present
Wednesday morning.
"We may have to send to Chad
ron for some of the witnesses," sug
gested Sutton. .
"There will be time for that. This
hearing will take some time," replied
Butler.
,7Have you talked with Ellen Lowry,
alias Elsie Phelps, alias Clara Wat
son?" asked Attorney Baker of Chief
Dunn. .
"I have never met her, was the
reply.
"Did Kugel ask you to call any wit
nesses to shaw that Maloney was
guilty of conrpiracy to blackmail?'
"No."
"You investigated in the department
to determine whether Maloney was
involved?"
"Yes."
"And you found nothing?
Hard to Get Facts.
"It has been hard to get anything
out of anybody on this affair. My
information came from the news
papers." "Have you any due that Maloney
was in anywise connected with the
conspiracy?" i
"I don't know of anything along
that line. The Chadron case, might
develop more."
"And it micht develop less?"
"Yes."
"Did vou make any effort to get in
formation?" asked Commissioner
Butler of the chief.
"I depended on witnesses on both
sides." was the answer.
"Any friction between your depart
ment and Maloney?"
"Haven't gotten along as well as we
might.
"The chief," interposed the mayor,
"does not seem to have anything on
which to base the charges. It is not
fair to eo into this arty further. I
don't think there is anything against
Ma onev now 1 think that at a gen
eral investigation that if anybody
knows anything let him come in and
tell all he Knows.
Chamber is Crowded.
The council chamber was crowded
A few women were present. Captain
Allen ti. Usher or Lhadron heard
part of the testimony. The chief
difficulty of the opening session was
to hold the hearing'down to charges
against Maloney without allowing too
much extraneous matter to creep in.
LET NOT BATHS BE
STOPPED BY WAR
Price of Soap Soars, But You
Can Meet That Situation
by Buying It by
the Box.
By A. R. GROH.
Is the great American institution of
soap to go next into the limbo of for
gotten things? Are we to be deprived
of this luxury by the ruthless hand of
war?
It's a serious question, citizens.
A woman went into a Sixteenth
street store the other day and asked
for three cakes of her favorite toilet
soap. She handed the clerk 25 cents.
"It's 35 cents now," said the clerk,
"because of the war."
"Well, I'll get it somewhere else,
then," said the woman and she
flounced out in righteous indignation.
She entered another store, ordered
the same soap and handed the clerk
a quarter.
it s JS cents now, said tne cierk.
She took it.
What Can You Do?
And this is the sad story all along
the soap line.
"Here is a toilet soap we have sold
for years at 10 cents, three for a quar
ter, said a Sixteenth street druggist.
"Now it is 13 cents, three for 35 cents.
Ivorv that we sold at 4 and 5 cents a
cake is now 7 cents. Here's a line of
shaving sticks,' powders and creams
which sold at 20 cents. Thev are 25
cents now. Here's a soap, sold for
years at three cakes for a quarter,
they are 12 cents straight now."
Yes, triends, it s on account o: tne
war.
Said a soap manufacturer: Lye and
soda ash factories in this country are
working night and day and they are
sunolvine domestic demand only on
existing contracts, shipping all they
possibly can abroad.
Costs Three Times as Much.
"We are oavlnB iust twice as much
now for animal fats and vegetable oils
as we were last fall. Glycerine that
was selling at 15 cents a pound a year
ago is now selling at 45 cents a pound.
Before the war 50 per cent of our
glycerine came from abroad. That
supply is all cut off now.
"Besides all this we have to contend
with the much higher prices of paper
and boxes and the price of labor is
higher also."
bo vou see, tne soap men nave a
good alibi. ,
A few stores still have a supply of
Rnrahclli. a Soanish castile soap at
the old prices. Castiles imported
from Italy are scare and high.
What, then, is to be done? Are we
to forego the Saturday-night luxury?
No I A thousand times no. That
step is unthinkable. Never shall we
submit to such an alternative. Amid
the crash of nations we never shall
undergo that privation.
The solution is at hand, l lie soutn
Sixteenth street druggist told it to me.
It is tins: Buy your soap by tne
dozen cakes or by the box.
A soap, he said, that sens tor
13 cents a cake is only $1.30 a dozen.
In other words, vou get a dozen
cakes for the price you would pay for
ten cakes if you bought them one at
a time. You get two cakes free when
you buy a dozen.
"Besides, soap will wear longer
when it is 'aged.' The older soap
gets, the less moisture it contains and
consequently the longer it 'lasts. "
Here is the economical solution,
friends. And the bath shall "continue
in its pristine glory, undimmwl by the
clash of war. '
It was admitted to be a hard matter
to draw a line of demarcation between
the Maloney hearing and a general
police department investigagtion.
Mayor Danlman is presiding.
What Kugel Said.
Mavor Dahlman made certain that
Sutton said "Pipkin, Barta and Un
ger" and wrote thejiames on a mem
orandum. Commissioner Kugel made this
statement from his chair:
"I denv that It remarked to any
body that I was pleased at the out
come of the Chadron hearing. When
these charges were filed against Ma
loney it was the understanding mat
they slnuld be held pending final
disposition of the Chadron case and
then hold the general investigation of
the department as an independent
matter.
"I did say that I believe that Ma
loney or any man of the department
who was bound over to a district
court should be suspended pending
determination of his case. I did not
know that Maloney was involved in
this affair until I returned from Bur
lington." "Do vou know anything more re
garding Maloney?" asked Butler.
"No. All 1 knew was wnat i read
in papers saved by Mrs. Kugel while
I was away."
"Why did you send Sutton to Chad
ron?" asked Attorney Baker.
While Kugel Was III.
"Sutton came to my home when I
was ill. The nurse had denied visi
tors, but she admitted Sutton. He
said he had something very important
to tell me. He mentioned the name
of the Omaha Detective association
in connection with a blackmail scheme
at Chadron and said it lookad as if
some of our men were connected with
the affair. I told him to follow up the
case and go to Chadron if necessary.
No names of members of the police
department were mentioned to me at
that time."
"Didn't you have enough interest
in the matter to ask Suton who might
have been involved?" asked Baker.
"I was not well at the time and ex
pected Sutton would report back to
me."
"Did lie mention Elsie Phelps?"
"I think he mentioned her."
"Did vou understand some alias
woman was going to take Sutton 500
miles awayr
"I was sick and did not go into de
tails." '

Janitor Hangs Up German
Colors Through Mistake
A breach of American etiquette was
unintentionally made last week by a
well-meaning jarlitor at the First Na
tional bank building. When told to
unpack all the American flags Jie could
hnd and unturl them on me building
to help boost the Liberty bond cam
paign, he obeyed orders, never notic
ing that one of the flags bore the Ger
man colors. Evidently it had been
stowed away for a long time with the
rest.
One of the directors of the United
States National bank, noticing the
enemy's flag, inquired, of his neigh
bors, the first National bank authori
ties, the reason for the appearance of
the flag. To their horror, they saw
the mistake. Needless to say, the
janitor, lost no time in hauling down
the flag.

SOCIETY WOMEN
SELLDAUGHTERS
So Declares Minister at Com
mencement at Brownell Hall
When He Scores Women
and Girls.
Society women who sell their
daughters in marriage to gain social
prestige, and society girls who fear
to slight men of loose morals be
cause doing so would nrhar them
from invitations to exclusive functions
came under the ban ot the Rev. Henry
S. Foster, rector of the Church of the
Ascension in Denver, who delivered
the commencement oration at Brown
ell Hall yesterday morning.
"I would rather see my throe
daughters in their graves than married
to some men ii. Denver who are re
ceived in the very best homes and re
garded as the most eligible men in
the city," iltv. Foster declared.
Moral Coward. .
"The girl who consents to dance
with a drunken partner for tear that
to snub him would mean her social
ostracism is a moral coward and is
just as much responsible for tilling
a drunkard's grave as he is."
"Men will conform to the standards
of morality women demand. If
women of this country would be true
to their ideals for only one vear, this
country would witness a reformation
the world has never seen before."
"Society is a legitimate ambition, I
suppose," mused the rector, address
ing the graduates, whom he asked to
be thankful for the position they en
joyed, "but God knows society needs
something more than argumentation.
I hope some of you are slill obsessed
with the notion of just making homes
sometimes in the future."
Jezebel would find her counterpart
in many of the painted-faced, dressed
up women on the down-town streets,
he said.
"Be religious in your work and
play," he urged. "Christ didn't talk
theology, and the time has gone by
when to be religious one must go
about with a Bible under the arm and
looking like you have chronic dys
pepsia. Just live it. Don't lower
your standards or ideals," he ex
horted the graduates.
Bishop Arthur L. Williams con
ferred diplomas upon the graduates.
Randall Brown Surprised
That Des Moines Gets Camp
Randall K. Brown, president of the
Commercial club and member of the
joint Commercial club and Real
Estate Board committee which
worked for the location of a canton
ment camp at Omaha, said: "I ain
surprised at Des Moines being chosen.
However, we feel that Omaha still has
a chance for a similar camp, for when
we were at Chicago we were told that
a bill is recommended to congress by
the army staff, providing for sixteen
more cantonment camps. If this goes
through, Omaha will still be in the
race. We have assurance besides that
the army posts now at Omaha will; be
filled up with troops, and it is likely
that additional facilities of some kind
will have to be provided at Omaha.
We leant also that there is talk ol en
larging the quartermaster depot here."
