CITY, Mo, May 24—The Walton State Bank of Walton, Kan., | was robbed In the early morning| hours of January 13 fast. The vault door was opened by means of an acetylene outfit and several safe deposit boxes were rifled, the roble obtaining $140,000 in munlicipal bonds, & few unregistered Liberty bonds and a large number of registered Liberty bonds. The robbers escaped, leaving no clue as to their identity. Part of the loot, municipal im- provement and school honds, valued at $20,000, was recovered here Feb- ruary 2, when Melville Levy, motor car dealer, presented them at a bank lie sald he had paid cash for $9,000 worth of the bonds, and gave two motor cars in exchange for the re- mainder. Levy said he made the deal with o man named J. G. Finney. J G. Finney, who said he was a cattle dealer of 'Alma, Kan., later was ar- rested. ~ Levy, however, failed to identify Finney. A week or two after the robbery, $7.300 of the bonds were found In To- peka and $5,000 in Paxlco, Kan. Following information "that Levy had sold the two cars In exchange for the bonds, local officers sent cir- culars over the country describing the cars and asking the arrest of the occupants. Three men and a woman Wwere arrested in Denver as suspe and brought back to Kansas CI They were Pat Carroll, James Rey nolds, James A. Woodruf and his wife, Ona, who said they had lived in Kan. b KAN CONFESSION LETTER DEEPENS MYSTERY IN KIDNAPING CASE (Continued from First Page.) tonight and a third man, a former in- structor, were being sought for ques- tioning. Tt was also reported that the had extended outside the city and that two suspects were being hunted in another city. The police refused to comment on this report. Clue Points to Woman. Possibility that a woman Is in- volved in the slaying was given more serious consideration today with two facts polnting to the possibility. One s the pair of spectacles found near the culvert in which the boy's body was stuffed and which oculists said were probably the property of a woman. The other was the statement of a woman residing near the nlace where the body wase found that she saw a man and a woman In an auto- moblle near the spot a few hours before the body was discovered and that they seemed to be quarreling and had a squirming bundle in the rear seat of the machine. The police added littla to the list of clues on which they are working. Thesa consisted of the spectacles, a gray stocking of the slain boy found near the spot where his body was se- oreted, a gray automoblle in which his abductors are believed to have taken him away and the letter de- manding the $10,000 ransom. All the authorities apparently wgreed tonight that the boy was kid- Baped for money alone and mot through any motive of revenge, and that he probably was euffocated by his captors, possibly accldentally. Theories that he had been polsoned were discarded when an analysis of his stomach showed no trace of the heavier poisons. Postal authorities took a hand in the investigation today when several inspectors were detailed to watch the Franks mall. It was said that efforts were being made to trace the letter demanding ransom and the threaten- ing letter received today. The latter missive was written in_rambling shion, and some of it was unde- herable. It referred to the father s a “skunk,” and expressed the in- ention of harming his daughter un- less the investigation of the boy's death is stopped. Pollce termed it the probable work of a crank. While the entire police department and every resource of the city was at work on the mystery, plans were made at the stricken home today for the funeral of the youth, who disap- peared Wednesday afternoon while walking three blocks from the pri- vate school he attended to his home. Funeral services, it was announced, will probably be held Monday morn- ing from the home, with only the family and immediate relatives in atc tendance. The mother is near col- lapse. In a statement early in the day Franks said that money meant noth- ing to him now and that he was ready to spend a million dollars to bring the slayers of his son to justice. Chauffeur Gives Clue.

French Flyer Leaves China for Japan Tomorrow. By the Associated Press. SHANGHAIL May 24.—Capt. Pel- letier Doisy, the French aviator, has fixed the time for his departure for Nanking, on his way to Japan, via E king and Kores, for daylight Mon- ay. A Paris cable last night announced that the minister of aeronautics had declded that Doisy's flight officially ended when he crashed at Shanghai, but that the aviator might unoficially complete his flight to Tokio In a new plane. ——e Through an aeroplans _delivery service recently {naugurated people in the north of Ireland are enabled to read the London meorning papers at the breakfast table. spattered 19238 license plate and of either a 1919 or 1920 model.

Philip Vandevoorde, the chauf- aour ‘who gave the police the informa- on, the kidnaping, he had noticed this car, with side curtains closely drawn, driving very slowly over the route taken by the boy to and from school. He sald his attention was attracted to the car because of the slowness with which it was moving and be- cause it was so dirty.

Four United States naval s will patrol these waters during the passage of the flight, to report their progress by radio und to act as 4 convoy for the alrplanes and to plck them up in case of forced landing. Shows Increased Speed. The completion of 1,350 mlles, through the second division of the route, which lies entirely in the Ju- panese empire, in two days, is an in- dication of the increase in ‘speed the fiyers can make, now that they are back In civilization. The stops and mileage in Japan, are as_follows: Kashiwabara, Kuriles, Japan, To Bettobu, Kuriles! Japan, miles. To Minato, Honshu, Japan, 475 miles. To umigaura, Japan. 395 miles. To Kushimoto, Japan, 360 miles. To Kagoshima, Japan, 380 miles. Total miles in Japan, 2,120, of which 1,350 miles has been completed. Ench Hop 500 Miles. The average length of the flights between each stop is now less than 500 miles, and questions have recently arisen as to why these distances were not longer. The fact that a non-stop transcontinental filght was made last 500 miles, would that @ series of single flight is simplify the 510 lead one to believe such “hops” (as a called) would greatly flight round the world. It must be remembered, however. that several attempts were made before this non- stop transcontinental flight was suc- cesstul. The strain on the personnel for successive flights of this nature is too great. Furthermore, the Lib- erty engines being used on the world flight, aithough they are the most re- Iable ‘aeronautical engines in the world, may not be counted upon every time to withstand a continuous strain such as long flights of this nature would impose. Difficult to Get Reports. Another Important consideration is the fact that it is practically impos- sible over the greater part of the proposed route round the worid to obtain accurate meteorological re- ports and weather forecasts for greater distances than 500 miles, due to the rapidly changing atmospheric conditions, as well as a lack of proper communication facilities between many of the more remote stops in uninhabited areas of the glove. To start a long flight of more than 1,000 miles without knowing weather conditions and route at the other end of the flight might result in the air- planes having to go back the whole distance that had been covered, which would not be necessary if interme- diate landings were possible as they are in the present plans. In addition the flight must take considerable personal equipment and supplies in the airplanes, and the weight of this material necessarily cuts down the weight of the fuel that could be carrled. For the foregoing reasons, the hops for the round-the- world flight average a little less than 500 miles, although the airplanes to be used are capable of non-stop flights of more than 1,200 miles as seaplanes and more than 1,600 miles when used as land planes.. Night Increases Hasards. Longer flights than planned, aside from the foregoing considerations, are impracticable, as it would require night flying over unknown and unin- habited areas, thus greatly increasing the hazards which are being_en- countered by the expedition. A flight from 400 to 500 miles, requiring six to seven hours, can be accomplished in daylight and several hours will still remain for servicing airplanes and placing them in condition for a simi- lar flight on the next day. When the flyers reach India and substitute wheels for pontoons, it is expected that they will make much longer filghts and thus bring up their average, which has been lowered by the bad weather in the North Pacific. Survey North Atlantic Route. The arrival of the flyers in Japan was the signal for the departure of the advance officers for the North Atlantic section of the route. One of these officers, Lieut. C. E. Crumrine, had already visited Iceland and Greenland last summer and made pre- liminary arrangements. He is ac- companied by Lieut. LaClaire D. Schulze, one of the alternate pllots for the flight. Lieut. Schulze will be on & chart- ered vessel, with supplies and fuel, at Angmagsalik, Greenland, when the filght arrives there next summer.

SUSPECT IN ASSAULT ON YOUNG IS KILLED (Continued from First Page.) as the one from which Young’s as- saflants fired The revolver fire began when mem- bers of the constabulary, a klan- controlled organization, attempted to stop & curtained car as it reached the west city limits about 10:30 am., travellng at a high speed. A fusil- lade of shots came from the car, ac- cording to reports, and the officers returned the fire. There wers about thirty shots in all. None of the of- ficers was wounded. Hits Other Machine, . “Brown," the driver, in attemp¥ing to avold hitting one ear, scollided head-on with another machine, over- turning both. The driver of the other car was bruised and was taken to the hospital, leading to an early report that three men were captured by the officers. The wrecked car was found to con- taln & machine gun as well as two automatic revolvers and two sawed- off shotguns. IN CRITICAL CONDITION. Wife of Ralder May Lose Sight of Eye. BELLEVILLE, Tll, May 24.—Mrs. S.

Starkel said late today. Dr. Starkel, who is In charge of the case, declined to discuss reports that Mrs. Young might lose the sight of one or both eyes, explaining that twenty- four hours would be necessary to determine that.

Earl Gibson, a Klan representative, stood guard at the door of the hos- pital, a Catholic Institution, and barred all newspaper reporters. Only close triends of Young were admitted to see him. \ The Klan leader told officers last night he believed he could identify Eis assailants, who fired into his se- dan from a passing touring car.
