NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1917. ORDER MAN AND GIRL FROM CAHP UPTON Their Activities Arouse Suspicion of General Bell Who Investigates Yaphank, L. I., Nov. —General Bell is indignant as the result of an investigation of a couple who came to the camp, Sunday, ostensibly to visit a sergeant here. The couple ‘were later trapped in a hotel and sent out of town on different trains, bhat not before they bath had been ques- tioned by General Bell and other of- ficers at the camp. The general said this afternoon that he regarded the movements of the couple, the girl not being over 18 or 19, as very suspicious in view of charges which had Tecent- ly been made against the morals of the soldiers at various army camps. Mrs. Grace Humiston, a Manhattan attorney, recently made serious charges concerning the morality of the men of the national army. At that time the woman said that infor- mation had come to her that many voung girls were about to become mothers and that half a dozen girls had died near army camps. General Bell asked Mrs. Humiston to lay be- fore him what specific information she had to substantiate these charges, especially to furnish him with the names of the young women involved. The general received a reply saylng she would show him what information was available as soon as possible. As vet the general says he has received no list of names or any additional in- formation that would be of value in investigating the woman’'s charges. Up to about ten days ago there was o carpenter employed at the camp Known as James C. Adken, who represented that he lived in New York City. While here he became very friendly with Sergeant Penland of the Cooks and Bakers' school, and they bunked together. On last Tuesday morning the Sergeant received a letter from Adken suggesting that he and some of his fellow-officers visit New York to attend a dance in Terrace Garden, the proceeds to be devoted to the Vocational Club for Gir The writer said Mrs. Humiston was inter- ested in the club. Sergeant Penland and Sergeant Kline, a chum, attended the dance on ‘Wednesday and mect a woman there who represented herself as Mrs. Hum- iston. Later on they met friends of Adken, one a Miss Flossie Franois.

Kline, There is a hotel at the camp where the wives of the officers can remain overnight, or where other Tel- atives might stay. The action of the couple aroused the suspicions of Sergeant Kline and he reported their presence to of- ficers when a room in the hotel was broken into last night, the couple found there, fully clothed.

Mr. and Mrs. Pendleton of Kansas City, Mo. *“Mr. Pendleton” told per- ' sons in the hotel that he did not realize the camp was so far from | Brooklyn, that he had come here ex- | pecting to find a friend, but had missed him. Adken was taken before General| Bell. He admitted he had been doing “detective” work, but would not say by whom he had been employed. He admitted also that he knew Mrs. Humiston, but denied that she fur- nished him the money for railroad fare to the camp, and he also denied that he knew who gave the girl her carfare to the camp. The voung woman, when ed by General Bell where she lived is said to have replied, “‘all over.” She refused to tell anything about herself, wher she lived or what occasioned her visit to the camp. The General had the young woman placed on a train eariy this morning and started for *New York, and upon onc ' that followed later on he saw that Adken was sent to New Yor --FOR SALE-- ISON DIAMOND DISC— Mah'y casc, regular price $100.00—our price $75.00.
