Seekers After Hungary's
Food Leave for Other Parts
Copenhagen, Sept. 7. Hungary,
which has acquired a reputation in
the central empires as a land flowing
with milk and honey, where eggs,
butter and white bread are still to
he obtained, has been compelled to
dose its gates to swarms of its al
lies. The government has ordered
those not Hungarians to show cause
why they should reside in that coun

quate reasons, and have merely set

be obtained there, will be given
week in which to leave the country.
Robert Alter, chief actor in an old,
old drama of real life, pleaded guilty
to a charge of embezzlement before
Judge Estelle, sitting in criminal
court, and was sentenced to from one
to seven years jn the penitentiary.
The youth, for he is only 25 years
old, was a clerk. He wanted the finer
things of life, but could not get them
on his moderate salary, so he decided
on a forbidden adventure a step as
old as civilization; he "borrowed" the
company's money and made plans to
be a. "millionaire for a day."
As clerk in the office of the Franz
Premier Distributing company he had
access to the firm s funds. Alter ap
propriated $625 in -cash and fled. He
went to Chicago, then to New York,
leaving a trail of gold behind him. It
was by this trail the Omaha authori
ties were able to trace him.
Millionaire for a Day.
In the country's metropolis, on the
traditional "Great White Way," Alter
made his big and final splurge.
Chorus girls and Broadway belles be
lieved the youth was a younir western
millionaire. He was while his money
lasted.
The New York "party" lasted but
one day. There were cabaret parties.
trips to fashionable dansants, visits ga
lore to lobster palaces and company
a-plenty, lhe; curtain was finally
rung down while Alter and his new
found friends were dining in a famous
Forty-second street restaurant.
Fine While it Lasted.
It was twilight. The lights were
just beginning to flash on in the pro
verbial "gilded palace." Alter leaned
back in his chatr, tore a golden-col
ored band from a 50-cent cigar and
motioned the Waiter to bring htm the
bill.
A tao on the shoulder, and Alter
looked up into the face of an Omaha
detective.
"Oh, well," he sighed, "it was fine
while it lasted; T was a millionaire
for a day, anyhow. "I've just got
enouch left to tip the waiter." ,
Alter said nothing as he stood be
fore Judge Estelle and was asked why
sentence should not be pronounced
upon him. He still kept his debonair
appearance, despite the jail clothes
he was wearing. Immediately after
beine: sentenced he was taken to the
penitentiary at Lincoln.

Whether Wyoming will finally be
assigned to the Omaha branch of the
federal reserve bank, or to the Den
ver branch which is being organized
depends upon a referendum now be
ing taken of all the national banks
of Wyoming.
When the law was passed creating
several branches of the federal re
serve banks Nebraska and Woming
were assigned to the Omaha district,
and the banks of those two states
were to report to the Omaha branch.
Then when Denver discovered it was
also.to have a branch of the reserve
ban the Denver business men made
a fight to get Woming attached to
the Denver district with Colorado.
The matter has now been pending
tor some tune, and, while the contro
versy is on, the Wyoming banks are
stilldoing their reserve business with
tne parent bank at Kansas Uty in
stead of coming in under either
branch. The result of the referendum

Brewers association, the Cmcairo Re
tail Liquor Dealers' association and
several other kindred organizations

PRICES OF COAL
FAIL TO DECLINE
,
Out of One to Two Dollars at
Mines, But Has Not' Been
Given to Omaha
Consumers.
Though the coal mines have al
ready cut from $1 to $1.40 per ton
off the price of coal f.o.b. at the
mines, and have to announced to the
retailers of Omaha in their circulars
in accordance with President Wil
son's order, the local retailer! are
standing pat, and making no reduc
tion in the retail prices to their con
sumers. 1 -
September days are here, and the
first blast that sweeps from the north
will make some coal necessary m
every home. Meanwhile the consum
ers are patiently waiting1 for the local
retailers to announce their reduction
in accordance with the reduction at
the mines, but it does not come forth.
The retailers are still claiming that
in order to avoid going bankrupt
they must sell high the coal which
they bought on the higher market,
before they fan start giving their
customers the benefit of the reduction,
forced at the mines by the administra-
ti0"- . . , ,
A few weeks ago the coal dealers
locally declared people must rush to
buy coal that the dealers might empty
their bins and get in more coal. They
held at that time, that there was only
supply enough in the retailers' bins
here to lasj the city a short time.
That was when they were urging
people to buy early.
However, as soon as the govern
ment anttcht to reduce the price $1
or more per ton, and the retailers
were asked to make this cut, they in
sisted that their bins are stocked with
high priced coal, stocked with a sup
ply that could not be exhausted be
fore the first of the year. .
-Which is the correct story is a
mystery, whether there is a two
weeks' supply in Omaha, or a four
months supply? i
