BORROWS MONEY OF MIANY ELKS Scion of Rich Family in Indiana Is Wanted by Police. He Is Also Accused of Pass- ing a Worthless Draft on a Firm. kgt J. H. Bloom of Samuel Bloom & Sons, tanners, 110 -Clay street, swore out a war- rant in Judge Cabaniss’ court yesterday afternoon for the arrest of R. N. Ken- drick on a charge of obtaining money by fulse pretenses. It is alleged that Ken- drick called upon the firm August 16, al- leging that he was an agent of the Te- cumseh Facing Mills, Michigan City, Ind., and asked for a loan of $110. The firm knew that Kendrick's father was a part- ner in the Indiana concern and had no hesitation in advancing the amount. Ken- ¢érick gave them a draft on the Tecumseh Facing Mills for §110 and they wired ask- ing if it was all right and received a re- pw that Kendrick was not an agent of the concern and had nothing to do with it, therefore the draft was worthless. 'The police were notified and Bloom was advised to swear out the warrant for Kendrick’s arrest. Detectives Ryan and O'Dea were detailed on the ‘case. They ascertained from a Dr. Nixon, who is stopping at the Grand Hotel and who came here with the Elks from Salt Lake City, that Kendrick met him on the train coming here and succeeded in borrowing 365 from him. Nixon, who is a veterinary surgeon in Kansas City, Mo., also toll them that Kendrick had borrowed vari- ous sums from other Elks. The detectives learned that Kendrick had arranged to take two yourng women from Kansas City to lunch yesterday and they walted at the Grand Hotel, where the two young women are stopping, in the expectation that Kgdflck would call for them, but he did t make his appear- ance. The police say that the Chief of Police at Kansas City told Dr. Nixon to keep an eye on the two young women, as they were supposed to know two men who committed a robbery of $20,000 worth of diamonds in Kansas City and _who were believed to be in Mexico. The young women, it is suspected, might make a trip to Mexico to see the two men. e MILITARY LAWBREAKERS RECEIVE PUNISHMENT Army Officers Take Action to More Thoroughly Enforce Regulations in Presidio Camps.
