Dalton is held at the Draper home. He was arrested in @ pool hall by Draper, who recog- nized him from photographs in Chi- cago papers. One of the bonds stolen by William Dalton, the Northern Trust Company clerk, who disappeared Thursday, was sold to a local firm by a young man answering Dalton's description on Thursday, it became known today. The bond, which was of $500 denom{- nation, was’ sold for about $440. é Dalton told Draper that he took the bonds because his salary was too small, that he had asked for an in- crease and it had been refused him. He said he was sorry that he had taken the bonds and said he realized that it “does not pay" to be dishonest: Dalton said he had spent the $500 that was missing from the grip. “I was getting only $65," Dalton said. “I had a chance to grab these bonds and get away, so I did it, I asked ¢ bank for a raise and they would not give it to me. “I thought I would go to South America. I'm sorry I took the bonds, though. It was wrong and I see my mistake now.” Dalton readily admitted his identity. ‘When he éntered the pool room he threw his bag around as though it contained only old clothes. He was brought to Heyworth by a member of the American Legion post who found him trudging south from Bloomington.

BLOQMINGTON, Ill, Feb. 26. — William Dalton's fondness for pool led to his capture at Heyworth, Mll., to- day. The youth who disappeared from the Northern Trust company bank in {Chicago Thursday with $772,000 :n Liberty bonds, was recognized by hab- itutes of a pool hall into which he strolled in Heyworth and he was ar- rested by John Draper, constable of the village. CHICAGO, Feb. 26.—The clews to the flight of William Dalton, 17-year old bank clerk who escaped from the Northern Trust bank, Thursday with $772,000 in Liberty bonds, the largest bank robbery in Chicago's history, were being traced by police today. The youth who Thursday night drove up to a garage in Waukegan, a northern suburb and asked to leave his new automobile all night was identified as Dalton. He drove ner+:, the next morning. Previously « youth answering his description had offer- ed Liberty bonds in payment for an automobile at a Chicago sales agency. Investigation of Dalton’s home lifs and associates of young Dalton threw no light on the theft, police said.

FIVE-FOLD BONUS MEASURE IS": RESTAURANT WEAKENING; » DROP IN SOME Restaurant prices in Casper show signs of weakening. This comes as a result of the drop in the prices of foodstuffs, which has been notice- able for the past six months. It is not probable, however, that the re- cent cut in wages at the refineries will have any effect on price of “corned beef and cabbage.’ The exact per cent of reduction cannot be stated as there are dif- ferent things to be taken into con- BRITAIN SEEKS RECOGNITION OF OIL CONCESSION WASHINGTON, Feb. 26. — Great Britain has brought diplomatic press- ure to bear on the United States to recognize the oil concessions granted by the Tinoco Government of Costa Riea to British interests, it was learn- ed today at the State Department, out since the United States has withheld recognition from the Tinoco regime, it has taken the position that it can- not give its approval to concessions that government has granted. It was explained, however, that no protest had been made by the Ameri- can government to Costa Rico against the granting of the concessions. EPORTED O PRICES ARE 10 PER CENT © ARTICLES sideration. Some cafes claim to have reduced their prices 10 per cent, others say there is no change in prices “listed on the menus, but the quantity has been increased. In some cases the margin on meal tick- ets is a little more liberal. Pota- toes that used to be “extra,” now go along with most meat orders. While it does not seem that restau- rant prices are lower,. yet on close observation, it will be found that the chefs, as a rule, “dig deeper,” and “cut wider” than six months ago. One restaurant proprietor stated that most foodstuffs have dropped more than 10 per cent in the last few months, but that does not mean that T-bones can be had for 10 cents on the dollar less than previous prices. The reason for this is the fact that rent, fuel, labor and other overhead expenses remain un- changed to them. The general opinion among the restaurant own- ers seem to be that there will be further reduction within the next sixty | 00; EE state ates «RITIC AND AUTHORITY LONDON, Feb, 26.—Sir Frederick ‘Wedmore, 76, art critic, poet, and short-story writer, died yesterday at his home at Seven Oaks, County Kent.

Before reporting the bill the com- mittee eliminated all of the tax pro- visions as approved by the house and adopted Senator McCumbers sugges- tion us to the effective date. (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.—With the tax provisions eliminated, the soldiers’ bonus bill was reportel to the senate today by the finance committee. The cash bonus would be payable January 1, 1923. The question of taxes to meet the ‘cost of the bill was left for the next congress. Aside from striking out the tax provision, the committee made little change in ‘the house bill, retaining the fiye options of a cash bonus based on length of service, de- ferred certificates farm and home aid and vocational traning. Senator McCumber (Republican), North Dakota, in charge of the’ bill, plans to call it up in the senate at daughter, Millicent, in editing several volumes of prose and poetry. the first opportunity, probably next week.

While the house agreed to the cor,- ference report without modification, the measure must be approved by the senate before it can go to: the presi- dent as the conferees made some changes in it. Chairman Johnson of the immigra- tion committee, whose bill to virtu- ally stop immigration for a year was defeated by the senate, led the fight for the substitute plan. Mr. Jotmson explained © that | tho measure would in no way affect Chin- ese exclusion or the Root-Takahira agreement as to aJpanese immigra- tion.

Senator Thoinas (Democrat), Colora- do, who opposed the bill, expects to | file a minority report. One of the amendments added by the committee provides that.all claims must be filed by July 1, 1922, six months before any of the provisions go in effect, so that the government may know, what proportion of men file for the cash or other options. situs oar ele i STOLEN MAIL SACKS FOUND NEAR OMAHA (By Associated Press.)
