In view of reports that Sullivan was represented as communicating with his superiors in Washington by number, both Moran and William J.

Officers were confident they would recover a major portion of the loot, following seizure of $25,000 worth of jewelry and $6000 in war savings stamps and currency. Investigators greeted with exultation the finding of $71.75 in Canadian quarters and $7.50 in dominion half dollars in the safety deposit box of a suspect. They pointed out that Charles Dean, alleged bosom companion of "Dr." Spencer Brown, held as the master mind of the vault robbery, who was questioned in Los Angeles, at one time was suspected of having participated in the Westminster bank robbery in Canada several years ago. The jewels, stamps and currency were discovered when police raided one of "Dr." Brown's homes in Antioch, Illinois. In the house, the raiders reported, were found instruments and chemicals such as might be useful in altering identification marks on securities. Evidence in the Werner case was to be presented today to the grand jury. Indications were that there was a possibility of indictments before night. The Werner vault was looted a month ago by oxo-acetylene torch burglars. Detectives contend that the murder of Lewis A. Hauschild, a lawyer for beer runners, and of three other men in a gangsters' feud, was an outgrowth of the Werner crime. CHICAGO, Nov. 23.—Recovery of $25,000 in gems and $6000 in war savings stamps from what police termed "one of the eight secret homes of Dr. Spencer Brown" and the announcement following a new arrest, that the evidence would be ready for the grand jury today, marked developments in the investigation WILL HAVE TIME TO THINK IT OVER William Craver and Carl Curts Real of San Diego, charged with evading railroad fare, were arraigned before Judge French today and sentenced to 30 days each in the Orange-co., jail.

The judge told him he would get no intoxicating drinks during that time and therefore should feel better when he gets out. He has but one leg, having lost the other in an automobile accident. THANKSGIVING AT TEMPLE SUNDAY Do you associate religion with sorrow and gloom and death? Well, religion is the greatest comfort in the world when sorrow comes. And that is the way it should be. But religion is for life, too, and is the great promoter of health and gladness. Dr James Allen Geissinger, at the White Temple, is going after sorrow and worry and fear at both services Sunday. In the evening he will speak upon: "First Aid to the Worried and the Fear-Full." Have you thought how the fears of men ride them? Do you worry easily? Come out to this evening service. Maybe you are an oil worker and have been laid off in the shut down in the oil industry. Don't give up the grant. Man does not live by oil alone. Come out and join in the sing. An unusual Thanksgiving service will be held in the morning. Not the old kind that you have grown weary or but a glad service. Dr Geissinger has woven seven passages of Scripture into one text that sings the music of the Bible to the discouraged heart. He has prepared a special hymn for the close of the serenity.
