The statements of an eve- witness who watched the progress of some of these trials is published here: ‘"The boat,” ho says, “was absolutely unmanned. All the apparatus on board was controlled from the bank of the lake by means of wireless telegraphy. “When I first arrived the boat was lying motionless in the middle of the lake. No one was on board. Suddenly a gun was fired on the deck and I saw the screw begin to revolve and drive the boat forward. “TIT watched the maneuvers of the un- manned boat for State ‘Floyd ‘Ross,’ vice-president: : to she qlimed her husband lost in gam-

XA //WARA PORTRAIT. MRS. EWING FIIZL, SR _2? KRONE, DISCHARGED FROM LAW SCHOOL TELLS OF Flat Attacks Dean Corlis of Ben- ton College of Law in a Printed Statement.

Senator Charles F. Krone is- sued Friday a printed statement setting forth the fact that he had been dis- charged from the faculty of the Benton College of Law, and stating his side of the differences which led to his re- moval by George L. Corlis, dean of the institution. Krone states in the circular that the control of the institution has been’ in the hands of Corlis and James A. Webb, the latter a brother-in-law of former Gov. Folk, Tells of a Fight. . John J. Raleigh, an insurance agent, is the third member of the Board of Cura- tors, Krone states, but “is and always has been a mere straw man.” Webb was one of the founders of the school, Krone states, ‘‘and took a goodly share of its profits,” until, quarreling recently with Corlis in the latter’s of- fice, he struck the dean with a chair. “The dean knocked Webb down,” says Krone, ‘‘and the cause of legal learning was once more vindicated. Webb, how- ever, compelled the dean to buy out his interest in the college.”’ “Earned Money Twice.” After some detail as to the financial relations of Corlis and Webb to the school, Krone gets down to his own case by stating that. he has each year earned his own pay twice, ‘‘first by lec- turing, and then by working as a col- lection agency. to obtain my money from the dean.”’ At the close of the last year, Krone says, $100 was due him. After several promises to pay, he says, he wrote to Corlis, Aug. 20 last, a letter which he reproduces. It beg-n: “Dear Sir—I hav. waited now all that I propose to wait for that check for $100."’ He went on to demand that, Inasmuch as back Salary was due to saveral of the lecturers, the dean reduce his own sal- ary, which, Krone says, was $5500 a year. In the letter Krone said that he had sent a copy to every member of the faculty. But, he states further on in the circular, “‘such was not the fact. My purpose was to impress the dean with the real situation. I wished to avoid arraying the faculty or myself against him until absolutely . necessary.’ Corlis then, Krone gtates, visited him with a check for $60, and promised the rest soon. He says he soon after saw Judge Wood, who told him he meant to quit the facuity after the present year, and that another lecturer, named Wright, had already quit. The $% balance due Krone was paid, he says, but he continued to demand a change in the manner of running the college. Later he took a suit against Corlis, filled by a graduate of the college, and Was soon afterward notified of his discharge from the faculty. WIFE RECOVERS’ $2850 IN BETS CHICAGO, Sept. ®.—Mre.

Judgment, but Also Signs the Papers. — ENGINEERED BY HOW Action Will No Way Afiew. the Criminal Prosecution, It Is Said. William Garen, former manager oF Havliin’s Theater, and under indictment? on a charge of embezzling $22,000 frors. the St. Louis Theater Co., has tiirned@ over to the company $14,000, elvil suit which preceded his arrest on a criminal charge will be dropped. Garen made the payment Friday, af- ter Judge Muench in the Circuit Court had refused to place on record a stipu- lation drawn up in the office of At- torney Jeptha D. Howe, brother-in-law of Circuit Attorney Jones. | and the _ Under the terms of this stipulation, . Garen confessed judgment acknowledg@ ing that he owed the St. Louls Theate# Co, $24,000. He also confessed all of the allegations in the company’s civ petition except that he ‘ook the money with felonious intent, | Judge Muench overruled the filing of } the stipulation, saying taat as this wae the last day of the te:m, the filing of — the paper would deprive other creditors of filing claims against Garen. ‘The attorneys then withdrew, saying . that they would devise another ita cases of settling the case, ‘Gave Check for $14,000. ‘ After a conference it was agreed that the St. Louls Theater Co. should yol- untarily release the Garen’s funds in banks, on condition that Garen give his personal check fo 3.4,0 «as partial restitution. This wes dcne. The next proceeding will be to dismiss the civil sult against Garen. Garen and the attorneys went to the National Bank of Commerce, where Garen wrote and turned over his per- sonal check for $9000. They then went to the Mississippi Valley Trust Co., where Garen surrendered $5000, which he had in a safe deposit box. The settlement was planned at a meet- ing held in the office of Jeptha D. Howe Thursday afternoon. Besides Garen and his wife, there were present Frank R. Tate, secretary of the St. Louis Theater Co.: William Desmond, private detective, and Rozier Meigs, Garen’s attorney. Agaihst the protest of Meigs, Garen signed a confession of judgment, acknowledging that he owes the St. Louis Theater Go. $24,000. Says He Is Penniless, In a separate document he form- ally surrendered to the company $14,- 000, which he says is all the money he has. This was accepted as a true statement of his financial condition. The amount for which the oar. sued Garen was $27,840, Mrs. Garen also signed the paper of surrender, and Meigs, after pro- testing, also affixed his signature to it. Before the assignment was mate the word “feloniously” was stricken from the company’s original civil pe- tition which, thus changed, was made — to allege simply that Garen diverted the company’s money to his own uses, The amount which Garen admitted owing the St. Louls Theater Co. is even greater than that names in the peasants! ment. wil Not judgment in the civil suft will have no bearing on the criminal prosecution,"” garnishment of said Assistant Circuit Attorney New- “The State has not considered im- - not entered ton. munity to Garen and has not inte agreement with him. I knew noth- _ ing of the settlement of the civil m ' =. That was @ perfectly legal action and — will not affect the State's case effort to prove Garen guilty of ziement.” WilHam Desmond, through whose de- tective agency most of the evidence in the Garen case was gathered: said: :
