EVENTS OF THE WEEK 
DOMESTIC.—Gaston B. Means and 
Elmer W. Jarnecke were taken in hand¬ 
cuffs July 2 to Federal District Court, 
New York, where they were then sen¬ 
tenced by Judge Wolverton to serve two 
years each in Atlanta Penitentiary and 
lined $10,000 and $5,000, respctively. 
The sentences were the maximum for the 
crime of conspiracy to violate the Vol¬ 
stead act, of which Means, former De¬ 
partment of Justice agent, and his “sec¬ 
retary” were convicted Tuesday. 
Fourth of July casualties in and 
around New York City included one dead 
and one dying, many seriously hurt, and 
11 drowned in adjacent waters. Many 
nearby communities went back to the old 
noisy Fourth, with unlimited firecrackers. 
The steamer Three Rivers, of the Bal¬ 
timore, Chesapeake & Atlantic Railway 
Company, with a passenger list of 94 
men, women and children, including 59 
members of the Baltimore Evening Sun 
Newsboys’ Band, burned to the water’s 
edge July 5 in Chesapeake Bay off Patux¬ 
ent River. Eight lives were lost. Prac¬ 
tically everyone aboard the burning ship 
was asleep except those of the crew on 
duty when the fire was discovered. So 
rapidly did the flames spread and so 
thick was the smoke that many were 
forced to jump into the water. Some of 
the newsboys heroically ran from state¬ 
room to stateroom arousing passengers, 
took care of smaller members of the band 
and helped the crew to quiet passengers. 
The United States Supreme Court has 
issued an order requiring Ben L. Salin¬ 
ger, former vice-president and counsel of 
the Midland Packing Company of Sioux 
City, la., to surrender himself to the 
United States authorities of South Da¬ 
kota. Salinger was indicted by a United 
States Grand Jury in South Dakota in 
the Spring of 1922, and since that time 
had striven to prevent being brought back 
to South Dakota to stand trial. During 
his long fight he furnished an aggregate 
of more .than $60,000 in bonds and in the 
Federal Court for South Dakota forfeited 
bonds of $10,000 and $15,000 which he 
had furnished for his appearance in South 
1 )akota. He was indicted on the charge 
of using the United States mails' for 
fraudulent purposes in the sale of Mid¬ 
land Packing Company stock to South 
Dakota farmers. It has been estimated 
that residents of South Dakota pur¬ 
chased $3,000,000 worth of stock of the 
Midland Company, which was a dead loss. 
Some weeks ago the plant was sold to one 
of the big packing companies for only a 
fraction of its cost. A report of the re¬ 
ceivers showed the $8,000,000 capital 
stock of the Midland Company had been 
over-subscribed; that some stock pur¬ 
chasers did not know they were buying 
stock; that officers of the company ap¬ 
propriated to their own use approximate¬ 
ly $300,000 worth of Midland stock ; that 
during the four months the plan was op¬ 
erated the loss was more than $200,000. 
Following his indictment in South Da¬ 
kota in -1922, Salinger was supposed to 
appear in Sioux Falls for trial, hut 
failed to do so. 
Calvin Coolidge, Jr., the President’s 
youngest son, died July 7 in Walter Reed 
Hospital, Washington, from septic poi¬ 
soning caused by a small blister on his 
left foot. The infection developed from a 
broken blister on the foot, suffered during 
a tennis match with his brother John on 
the White House courts a week before. 
The boy paid no attention to it and the 
poison got such a grip on his system that 
when physicians were called in it was 
too late. Calvin Coolidge, Jr., is the sec¬ 
ond boy to die while his father was Presi¬ 
dent of the United States, the first being 
Tad Lincoln, son of President Lincoln, 
who expired in his father’s arms in the 
White House. 
Phil Hopkins was sentenced to one 
year in the Harris County Jail at Hous¬ 
ton, Tex., July 7, by Federal Judge J. C. 
Hutcheson, on a charge of using the mails 
to defraud in connection with the promo¬ 
tion of more than 20 stock companies. 
For the first time in the history of 
missionary work in Africa an airplane 
will be used to cover the vast territory a 
missionary is assigned to. Sailing July 
9 on the Aquitania for hie post in Africa 
was Dr. E. A. Late, with his wife and 
three-year-old son, who will make their 
headquarters at Liberia. Dr. Late, for¬ 
merly of the British and United States 
aviation forces during the World War, is 
being sent by the Lutheran Foreign Mis¬ 
sion Board of Baltimore. The board has 
arranged that an airplane will be shipped 
to Dr. Late in Africa to be used in his 
jump into the interior of the country. 
The plane was contributed by a Lutheran 
congregation. 
The Pennsylvania State Supreme Court 
July 8 unanimously declared unconstitu¬ 
tional a proposed $35,000,000 soldier 
bonus amendment to the State Constitu¬ 
tion. The court based its opinion on the 
ground that the Constitution cannot be 
amended oftener than once in five years. 
Under this ruling, 1928 would be the next 
date at which an amendment could legal¬ 
ly be offered. 
Trapped in the kitchen of their blazing 
home after flames shut off attempts to 
xeach the door, Frank J. Glembocki, 52, 
and Michael Coleman, nine, known as his 
adopted son. were burned to death July 8 
at Durlandville, N. Y. Mrs. Glembocki 
n 
and three children escaped. Glembocki 
had escaped with others of the family, 
but rushed back into the house to save the 
boy. 
Damage estimated at $175,000 was 
done when tire July 7 destroyed the 
largest of several stages owned by the 
Hal Roach Studios, Inc., Culver City, 
Cal. The blaze, according to studio of¬ 
ficials, was started by a smoke pot used 
during the afternoon in filming a scene.
