Every kind of a good spread—such as we sell every day— but extra quantities of them and some exceptionally low prices. This is the first big bedspread sale we've had. It means much to the housewife, the hotel man or lodging-house keeper— not so much the money they save (though that’s important) but the quality they get and the thousands they may choose from. It's a sale—a new kind of a sale. Not a foisting out of two or three odd iots or an exploiting of some cheap flimsy spreads at a low price in order to get folks here in hopes of selling something else. No! No!!

Speclal Dispatch to The Call. PHOENIX, May 10.—George E. Littell, now a prisoner in Suisun, Cal., is wanted here for raising money on bogus checks and drafts last winter. He represented himself to be a Detroit capitalist and de- frauded among others the Phoenix Na- tional Bank with a $300 draft on Detroit. He cleared up about $2000 here., SUISUN, May 10.—George K. Littell, or Captain George E. - Leslie, rests behind the bars of the County Jail in Fairfield to-night, unable to obtain bonds in the sum of 31000 for his release. This is the man who made a “bluff’ at buying the Hatch ranch for $300,000 cash and who threatened to open another bank in Sui- sun. Constablé Charles H. Downing ar- rived from Portland with his man this afternoon and toek him before Justice Hitchcock, where, after due legal formali- :{98. he was held to appear for examina- on. Upon his arrival here the Constable re- ceived this telegram from Sheriff S. S. Stout of Phoenix, Arizona: ‘‘Hold Littell. Will come with papers.” The vrisoner says Littell is his right name and that his father is general man- ager of the Detroit Central Railway with offices in Detroit. He claims to be a member of several fraternal organiza- tions and says he recently arrived from Australia. e In Portland, Littell placed a large bun- dlc of papers in the,safe of the Perkins House, where he Ii and a few hours later trigd to borrow on the strengih W of the deposit. less.

Littell is not the swell he was when he left Sulsun two weeks ago. He has a week’s growth of beard and is nervous and apprehensive. He admits that he is in a bad position and says he will plead guilty and give Judge Buckles a talk, hop- ing to get but a two years’ sentence. He prefers going to San Quentin. From his conversation while en route from Port- land, Constable Downing is confident that Littell is an ex-convict and that there are heavier charges hanging over him elsewhere, which he hopes to escape by being sentenced here.

The fight grew out of efforts of the Germans to ridicule the Japanese flag, which the Ger- mans were trailing on the ground and otherwise Insulting. Sergeant Miyazaki, a Japanese soldier, and two privates were journeying toward Shanbalkwan to join the Japanese garri- son there when they met a party of ten Germans.
