Omaha Attorney Loses in Last
Legal Aetion to Keep
Him Out; of
Prison.
l nitcd States supreme court yes
terday refused to review the ease of
Thomas H. Matters, Omaha at
torney, convicted of violating the
federal banking' laws and sentenced
to For Leavenworth prison.
Matters is now out on a stay of
incarceration signed by , Former
President Wilson and former Attor
ney General Palmer, which lasts
until April 22.
Matters was convicted of having
aided M. L. Luebbfcn, president of
the First National bank at Sutton,
Neb., in defrauding the bank.
Lucbben is now serving time in
Fort Leavenworth.
Matters has been kept out of pris
on by court actions and stays issued
by various judges having jurisdiction
over his case.
He was accused of having assisted
in the "unlaful and fraudulent
issuance of certificates of deposit."
Announcement of the United States
supreme court's refusal to review
the Matters case was received in
Omaha today from Washington.
"A pardon by President Harding
is the only thing that can save Mat

Pleads for More Funds
. I. W. Carpenter, vice chairman of
the Chinese relief drive in Nebraska,
yesterday received the following
statements written by President
Harding on the Chinese relief ques
tion: ' At thla. the earliest practicable moment
of my administration. I desire to add my
own to th. many appeals which have ben
Usuert heretofore In behalf of the starving
people of a large section of China.
I am informed that the American com
mittee and the church and other organi

SIS?" 5o?,BV.nd SVn'MiK'.d! I
relief work has been accomplished.
Nevertheless, my information Is that the
means thus far placed at the command of
these organizations are entirely Inadequate
to the task they confront. Since the
beginning ot this" relief movement a Much
more accurate understanding of the grave
situations has become possible. The De
partment of State has from time to time
made public information received 'through
its representatives in China as to the con
ditions prevailing there. The picture of
China's distress is so tragic that 1 am
moved therefore to renew the appeals
heretofore made, and to express the hope,
that the American people wlir continue t
contribute to this humanitarian cause as
generously as they possibly can.
The cry for succor comes to us from a
people far distant, but. linked to us by
manifold ties of friendly association, con
fidence and good will. The American na
tion has never failed to demonstrate its
friendship for the people of China and
that friendship has always been recipro
cated in a manner which I feel justifies
the hope that in this hour of China's great
distress -our people will do everything in
their power for its amelioration.

Lincoln Men Bid
Nearly Million
For Hotel String
Syudieate Offers $873,000 for
Nebraska Hotels, Ineluding
Lease and Fixtures on
Fontenelle.
Sale of the-Hotel Fontenelle i:i
Omaha neared completion again yes
terday. W. E. Barkley, receiver for the In
terstate Hotel company, this morn
ing filed a bid for the sale of the
Fontenelle before District Judgj W.
M. Morning.
The bid is signed by Charles D.
Mullen, Ed G. Mohanan, Charles
Stuart and E. B; Stephenson, all of
Lincoln.
Amount offered bv these four men
is $875,000. Mr. Barkley said, but
this also includes the Lincoln hotel in
h.incoln, the Capitol hotel site at
Eleventh and V streets, Lincoln: the
Lincoln hotel at Scottsbluff, the Lin
coln hotel at Franklin and the Lin
coln hotel at Table Rock.
Bid for Lease.
For the Fontenelle the bid seeks
merely the lease, furniture and fix
tures, not the property, while with
the others the sale includes the real
estate, Mr. Barkley explained.
"This is not 90 per cent of what
I had hoped to yet in a bid for these
hotels." said Mr. Barkley. "I had
decided to present a bid to the judge
when I reached one near a million
less commissions. But this bid is net,
and is for $875,000."
Eppley Still In Deal.
E. C. "Gene" Eppley, owner of the.
Martin hotel in Sioux City, is not
yet out of the deal, according to
Mr. Barkley, who said that Eppley s
bid was for the Fontenelle only. ,
Eppley is now inspecting the
other hotels named in the Lincoln
men's bid, he said, and will probably
place another bid for the lot as soon
as possible.
Judge Morning will reserve de
cision in the case for a day or two,
in the opinion of Mr. Barkley.
The agreement rescinds $300,000
in mortgages represented largely on
the Lincoln hotel in Lincoln.
If the bid is accepted and the con
tract approved by the court, the ini
tial payment of $100,000 will be paid
and the remainder will be paid at the
rate of $7,500 a mouth in notes bear
ing 6 per cent interest. The four
Lincoln men making the bid have
already put up $25,000 as evidence
qf good faith.
