SCHROEDER'S BIG
CHECK CASHED IN
COUNCIL BLUFFS
Confidence Men Who Fleeced
Nebraska Farmer Collect
$10,000 in Cash at Com
mercial National Bank.
That $10,000 check which Farmer
Schroeder gave to some smooth con
fidence men at Lincoln a few days
ago wai cashed at the Commercial
National bank in Council Bluffs.
Details of the transaction are being
withheld, but enough has been
divulged to show that the bank fol
lowed the usual commercial custom
and was without knowledge of the
irregular character of the deal that
put Schroeder's wealth into the hands
of the Mabrayites.
Schroeder and 3 Lincoln detective
..nf tn Tnnnril Rlnffs Saturday aft
ernoon and left late that night. They
traced the paper through the bank and
were given a.l the assistance possible
by C. E. Price, president of the bank,
and Cashier C. Konigmacher. '
The bank officials arc giving the
matter their personal attention and
may be of material use in tracing the
con men.
Check Was Good.
The check was presented at the
bank October 16, or the day following
the alleged stock gambling deal which
the con men represented to Schroeder
had netted $30,000 profit. Schroeder
was led to believe the money was in
the box which they gave him.
The name of the man who present
ed the check is withheld. He was a
stranger at the bank, but is said to
have come with unquestionable cre
dentials. ,
The man who presented the check,
however, did not require credentials,
for the reason that he merely left the
check for collection. President Price
enclosed the check in a letter to the
bank at De Witt, Neb., upon which it
was drawn, stating that it would be
paid if the De Witt bank would guar
antee it and the endorsements
The check was returned in due time
with the statement that it was genu
ine, that Schroeder had the money in
the bank and that his attention had
been called to it. The De Witt bank
era said the check could go through
the clearing house in the usual man
ner and would be taken up.
Took Real Money.
Last Wednesday the stranger ap
peared at the bank, expressed his
satisfaction when shown the corre
spondence and was paid $10,000 in
"lie refused to take a cashier's check
or a draft, declaring that the money
was for immediate use and the cur
rency would be required.
The Lincoln detective and Schroe
der looked over a lot of the "mugs
of the old Mabray gang that are still
retained in the judicial archives, and
Schroeder Identified one Mabray oper
ator as one of the men who got hu
money. ,
The identification was without value

Ure Says Red Cross Does
Not Sell Knitted Articles
: "Not a single, knitted article has
ever been sold by the Omaha Red
i Cross chapter," said W. G. Ure. "I
have heard some complaints that this
is being done. I would like anyone
asserting such to produce proof if it
can be produced.
"Furthermore not a single knitted
article has been given away. Every
thing knitted for the Red Cross is
shipped direct to divisional head
quarters in Chicago. From there they
may possibly be given out to soldiers
in this country. I do not know about
that But most of them are sent to
the front, I imagine. However we
most emuhatically want it known that
knitted, for us, we send them on to
Chicago."
"Another thing," continued Mr. Ure,
with equal emphasis. "We have heard
some complaints to the effect that the
officers are getting compensation for
their work.
,"I would like it made known that
not a single officer or committee man
in the' Omab chapter has ever re
ceived a cent of pay. All times is do
tuted to the cause by responsible men
whose time is worth money.

Children" Die of Malnutrition;
Appeal to Russia for Wheat;
No Clothing at Any
Price.
-Via
(Or Amoclated Frru.)
Jassy, Koumania, Oct. 19.
Petrograd, Oct. 28. Roumanian is in
danger of starvation and destitution
unless urgent steps are taken to re
lieve the food and clothing situation!
Investigation by the Associated Press
correspondent indicates that help
must come soon if the country is to
retain its strategical importance in
the war.
The death rate among Roumanian
children, due to malnutrition, is ap
pallingly large because of the serious
shortage in wheat, rice, meat and
other vital articles of food. Meat is
no longer issued to the civilian pop
ulation and the bread ration is limited
to less than a pound a day for each
person.
Burlap on Feet.
Among the peasantry which com
prises 80 per cent of the population,
the suffering is particularly acute. The
supply of dairy products is negligible.
The government has sufficient corn to
feed the peasants until February, but
there are virtually no shoes, no cloth
ing or blankets to be had. The hos
pitals are without food suitable to the
sick and there is a serious lack of
drugs, medicines and instruments. -
In the villages it is. estimated there
are more than 25,000 orphans without
adequate food or clothing. Common
burlap is wrapped about the feet and
there are other crude improvisations
to replace shoes, it is impossible to
get the leather fur the moccasins
worn by the peasants.
Forty Dollars for Shoes.
The government is also finding it
difficult to supply the army with foot
wear. The correspondent was offered
$40 for the shoes he was wearing.
Roumania is looking hopefully to
America to supply her needs.
The government is confronted witn
the problem of feeding during the
current agricultural year a population
of nearly 5,000,000 with resources ot
100.000 tons of wheat and less than
250,000 head of cattle. The normal
requirement is 600,000 tons of wheat.
The authorities are hopeful that Rus
sia may be induced to give Roumania
the entire product of Bessarabia. The
consignment of this wheat to Rou
mania is considered the only way of
saving the country from economic
disaster.
Cattle Die Lacking Food.
Tens of thousands of horses and
cattle must die this winter for lack of
fodder, since the supply was ex
hausted two months ago. '
TvDhoid. dysentery and jaundice are
prevalent and the government fears
the recurrence of the typhus epidemic.
The American Red Cross commission
is leading effective aid in providing
medical facilities. In a short time it
will have two hospitals ready with a
combined capacity ol 2,000 beds.
The transport of supplies througn
Russia at this time presents difficul
ties, but confidence is felt that as soon
as the railroad commission completes
the reorganiration of the railway lines
the situation "will improve materially.

German Tries to Explain
Losses on Belgian Front
Amsterdam, Oct 28.General Sixt
von Arnim, one of Germany's com
manding generals, in an interview in
the Korrespondenz Norden, said the
British troops were two or three times
more numerous than the Germans,
and that the British batteries were
equipped with far more heavy guns
than the Germans possessed.
A further advantage for the British,
the general said, was that they had
80,000 soldier laborers for bringing
up munitions, while the Germans who
serve the guns have t feed them.
AMERICANS WATCH
GROSETTTSADVANGE
Members of Leland Stanford,
Jr., Ambulance Corps Keep
Up with French Albania
Drive.
(Br Aiwoclated FreM.)
Koritza, 'Albania, Oct. 28. The
American ambulance section stationed
here, made up of men from Leland
Stanford, Jr., university, California,
has won distinction of late. First, it
made a record advance of forty miles,
keeping up with the recent forward
sweep of General Grosetti's forces
from Poprodek to Padahoja, on Lake
Ochrida one of the biggest military
advances of the war and the furthest
advance any automobile section has
made in these parts.
The culminating achievement of the
Californians has been bringing in
proof positive confirming the French
account of a recent desperate fight in
which 300 Austro-Bulgars were killed
and 450 captured, yhich had been de
nied in a German '.communique. The
proof, coming from an independent
American source, has been received
with great satisfaction at French
headquarters.
Americans Meet Prisoners.
The Americans secured their evi
dence of tlv French success by a
chance meeting with the convoy of
Austro-Bulgar prisoners as they were
brought back to the prison camp. The
ambulances were moving along the
road, parallel with the long file of
prisoners, when a voice suddenly
came from the prisoners' ranks:
"Hello, Americans 1"
This was in good English and the
prisoner who spoke was soon sorted
out.
"I am from Chicago," he said, "and
I'm mighty glad to see some of my
American fellow citizens."
"But what are you doing there as
an Austrian prisoner?" asked Walter
E. Brun of Oakland, Cal.
Biggest Mistake of Life.
"I'll tel 1 you," said the Austrian
prisoner frankly. "I was living at Chi
cago when the war broke out, but as
a native-born Austrian I felt I ought
to return to my country, and so I did,
and it was the greatest mistake I ever
made in my life. Such a dog's life as
I've had; such hardships; such food!"
"Why, not half the men know what
the war is about or what it's for," he
said. "The one thing every man in the
Austrian ranks wants is peace, and he
knows Germany is the obstacle to
Austria getting peace. That makes a
bitter feeling against Germany among
the men."
Americans Count Prisoners.
Meantime others among the col
legians were gathering very exact data
concerning the encounter in which
the prisoners were taken. William R.
Rodgers of San Francisco, who drives
one of the American ambulances, and
5. C. Feck of ban Mateo, Cal., made
a count of the prisoners. Their count
tallied 446. Their car later followed
the prisoners all the way to the
prison camp. Peck got two medals
from the prisoners, showing the head
of Francis Joseph, with the words
"Bosnia-Herzegovina-Dalmatia, 1914
1915 Weltkrug."
These medals showed the prisoners
were from the Czechs and Bohemian
classes, the element opposed to the
wal Many of them openly declared
the Czech element was seeking to be
captured at every opportunity. An
Austrian captain was among the
prisoners, who talked freely with Brun
and Vernon B. Chittenden of New
York, a Harvard man.

IOWA ARTILLERY
IN BIGGUN DRILLS
Intensive Training Started by
126th Field Gunners; Non
Coms May Get Commissions.
Camp Cody, Iteming, N. M., Oct.
28. (Special.) Intensive training
has been started by the 126th field ar
tillery (First Iowa field artillery).
Colonel J. E. Brandt commanding,
and every one of the approximately
900 men is putting in his eight hours
daily.
If the hardships coincident with
getting a new camp ready and secur
ing all sorts of equipment with which
to do their tasks are depressing to a
few of the Iowans, there is no gen
eral kick. The desire seems to be to
get in condition to flng hot ones at
the Boches at the earliest possible
time. .
The daily routine runs like this:
An hour and a half of semaphore
and calisthenic drills, an hour and a
half of small arms (pistol) drill, an
hour and a half of instruction in mili
tary courtesy, personal hygiene and
sanitation, an equal period in double
time big gun drill, and the same in
equitation.
The equiment of the first battalion,
Major J. L. Oakes, has been divided
for instruction purposes, so that each
battalion has sufficient guns to carry
out the drill, with horses and cais
sons. The first battalion came well
equipped from Fort Logan H. Roots,
Ark.
Rumors that caught the interest of
non-coms were that five from each
battery would be chosen to take vac
ant commissions in the regiment.
Trench mortar battery 109 (head
quarters, machine gun and supply
companies, Second Iowa infantry),
Captain Walter L. Moore, command
ing, with Lieutenants Harold B.
White and Sidney C. Gergusons, is
organized and I waiting orders and
equipment. The first sergeants are:
Ray R. Berggren, Archie W. John
son, William C. McCarthy and Joseph
A. Moore. The supply sergeants are:
Blackman O. Blumfield, Harold R.
Meekins and Fred W. Allen. This unit
is a part of the 59th field artillery
grigade, headed by Brigadier General
Frank G. Mauldin, U. S. A., who is
temporarily division commander.

(Continued r'rom Page One.)
Boy Scouts put in the eleventh hour
contribution when they raised $4,000 ;
in a little campaign on their own ac
count at the 9 o'clock show at the i
Strand. Gordon Smith, Oscar Stur
devant and Junior Nash were the !
leaders in this after-the-battle cam- i
paign, when a band of scouts took I
subscriptions from the audience after I
a short talk by Manager Thomas of
the theater. '
Byrne Gets $1,000 Bill. I
The letter carriers concluded their
drive with a showing of $44,700. Nine
who turned in subscriptions of more
then $1,000 were: L. Edwards, E. J.
Hynek, L. I. Way. H. R. Martin,
E. D. Black, W. Maher. W. Real,
C. G. Dalby, A. A. Saalfeld.
One of the big boosts of the day
was a $50,000 subscription authorized
by President George C. Taylc.- of the
American Express company, and sub
scribed by VV. S. Warner, general
agent for the company in Omaha.
Miss Texas Guinan, Schubert
actress, visiting friends in Omaha en
route to Los Angeles to fill an engage
ment, attended the Orpheum Satur
day night and on leaving tendered
Manager Billy Byrne a $1,000 bill with
the request that he buy a sheaf of
Liberty bonds before the campaign
closed, and credit it to Omaha.
Manager Byrne buttoned the
fortune in his vest and gingerly made
his way to the Federal Reserve bank,
where the loan committee was in ses
sion. "Take this subscription quick, boys,
and lock this bill in the vault. I walked
in the middle of the street all the way
down Farnam street," said Byrne.
Boy Scouts' Record.
The Boy Scouts did their bit
throughout in the oversubscription
drive. Omaha scouts acquitted them
selves with $439,800 from 1,897 sub
scribers. Every Omaha scout who got
one subscription will be the guest of
the Rotary club at the Brandeis thea
ter at the evening performance of
"Fine Feathers," Tuesday, Novem
ber 6.
Including the Omaha subscriptions
the six Nebraska scout troops in Dis
trict 12 raised $468,100. Scout Dis
trict 12, of which C. H. English is
zone chief and Vincent C. Hascall is
scout master, embracing seven Kan
sas and one, Wyoming troop, raised
a total of $528,800, more than double
the record set in the first Liberty loan
campaign.
Carl Diamond, troop leader of Troop
S in Omaha, holds the individual
record, having sold 183 Liberty bonds.
The Ralstron troop turned in $2,050
toward the scout total. Minden troop
No. 1, raised nearly $10,000. Five boys
of the troops qualified for the govern
ment "war medal."

true blue in the matter of buying
bonds of the second loan. They had

cause of liberty and they as willingly
placed their money at the disposal
of Uncle Sam.
The total amount for the camp at
this date was $1,300,000.
The boys were enthusiastic from the
start. They realized the need of money
for the war, perhaps more than the
folks at home, and not one hesitate'd
to buy a bond. Some bought a $50
bond, others bought a $100 bond and
others made even larger subscriptions.
Those who had dependents were
not asked to subscribe, but were told
the government insisted that they
send the money home. Even then
some bought a bond of the meager
amount left out of their pay.
The boys of C company, 126th ma

American Red Cross Cares
For Survivors ot Antilles
Washington, Oct. 28. Prompt aid
was given by the American Red Cross
in France' to 170 survivors of the
army transport Antilles, torpedoed
and sunk October 17, with the loss of
67 lives. Cable reports to the head
quarters here today say besides at
tending to those suffering from
wounds and exposure, the Red Cross
furnished money and clothing to des
titute survivors and cashed officers'
checks written on whatever odd bits
of paper at hand.
Reserve stocks of clothing in prep
aration for any similar accident in
the future will be assembled at the
French port where the survivors were
landed.
In addition to aiding these men,
the Red Cross was able to give funds
and clothing to a number of junior
army officers who were homeward
bound on the transport and had been
unable to save anything in the hasty
abandonment of the sinking vessel.
For those of the army officers who
could not receive donations the Red
Cross representative cashed personal
checks.
, Great care was given to visiting
the wounded in the hospitals to make
sure that they were receiving the best
of treatment and attention from the
moment of their arrival in the port."
