T DaAE Assistant Attorney General George Shafer and George Raymon, Cass county deputy sheriff, who- are dis- patehed to California to bring Hast- ings here, will represent the state. Hastings is accused of having em- bezzled $3,000 from the Scandina- vian-American bank, now closed, by -giving an alleged illegal note $aid to e on the Sisal Trust before that or- ganization was formed. ‘A.*C.

" Hastings was detected ' in- Seattle but before a warrant. arrived from Cass county he had disappeared. He .created a surprise by giving himself up in Sacramento, Cal.” It is reliably understood.that war- rants for Townley and Hastings are the result of an audit being: made of . the state bank by Bishop ‘Brissman auditing company who assisted Ar- theur LeSueur, St.-Paul attorney and former monpartisan, who broke with the league leaders.

HE old War Building at 532—17th St, N.W, “Washington, D. C,, has proudly flung forth another challenge to the public interest. Irom the bay win- dow on the second floor, the United States and Russian flags are fluttering together over a sign which_announces the headquarters of the ‘American Central Committee for Russian Relief, Inc. It was in this very room that General Grant had his office ‘during his term as Secretary of War in 1865 and where he watched. the construction of the War, State and Navy building across the street. Here, with his ‘portrait above her desk, the Princess Cantacuzene, his grand- daughter, born in the White House during his Presidential administration, is directing a campaign-of mercy and vast economic * potentiality, Like her distinguished grandsire she does not think in terms which admit of deieat. After residence of twenty years in Russia, broken by short visits to her native land, Princess Cantacuzene with her family. has once more taken up her residence in the National Capital, where she is -energetically enlisting the interest and sympathy of old and new friends in her work for the, Russian refugees outside of Russia, of whom there are now more than one million, many of them and destitution. % g " In‘'speaking of this work in which her heart is so en- firely ceritered, the Princess said: .- vy i ‘e have brought the headquarters of the Americat i Centra i ; S tee for Russ - Relief, Inc,:y Washington be in closer conz tact * with other)] national “organ zations -and™ COLMAN purpose of -aiding the Bolshevik tyranny. impossible to were in the Russian frontiers. “Bear in mind,” side of Russia by the this pa “La Allied Cauge and are disease, driven -from is none to be fount.” refugee out “He has_sen by mistake f Polind, the Balkan - stat mands _ that we emphasize its na- tional character.
