BIGGEST REALTY MERGER IN HISTORY NEW YOFK, Dec. 5.—One of the biggest real estate consolidations in history is about to be effected by General T. Coleman DuPont and N. S. Black, chairman of the Board of the U. S. Realty Co., it was announced here this afternoon by a spokesman for Black. The merger, if put thru, will affect the DuPont office building down town, the Flatiron bldg., the New York Hippodrome, the Plaza and Waldorf-Astoria hotels here, the New Willard in Washington, the Bellevue Stratford in Philadelphia and the Sopsey Plaza hotels in Boston, it was said. BRIDE LOCATED NEW YORK, Dec. 5.—Mrs. (Continued from Page One) do that kind of work but that if they themselves could arrange for financing the investigation I would recommend a trustworthy investigator, one whom we had recommended to officials in many counties and cities during the past three years and in every case had given the greatest of satisfaction to those who engaged him. A few days afterward these gentlemen came back and said they had arranged for a small fund for the investigation in Fullerton. I that the fund would be sufficient. I therefore sent Mr. Ward to Fullerton. They did not know the man, Mr. Ward began work, finding his own leads, and soon reported back to me that the leads went out all over the county but that he only had authority in the City of Fullerton, given to him by the chief of police, that he could not follow these leads into the other parts of the county. I then went with Mr. Ward to see Sheriff Jernigan and told him of the investigations of Mr. Ward in one town in the county, finding leads that went all over the county. The Sheriff deputized him to make investigations. Mr. Ward told the sheriff he would only get evidence that he would make no arrests until he came back and reported to him. About the same time I went to Mr. Weymouth of the Federal office and told him that some of the cases looked to me like Federal cases and he readily put two men on the job with Mr. Ward and they worked together from that on. When they thought the time was ripe for the raid to be made Mr. Ward and I made two trips to Santa Ana to see the sheriff, but on account of his sickness we were not permitted to see him. It was not until the third trip that we got an interview with him at which name and facts in the case of Crane and Wilks were given to me without hesitation. You are aware that these were federal cases. I then went down to the office and I was shown the case reports. They had been made in due form to the district attorney's office and I am informed that the warrants were in the hands of the U. S. marshal at the time that their cases came before Judge Williams. If the facts had been such as were reported by Attorney Mosley there might have been just ground for Judge Williams' criticism, but as the report does not correspond with the facts the criticism is unjust, at least in as far as it applies to the federal enforcement agent, the private investigator and the Anti-Saloon League. Their part of the work was done in regular form, as the records show. I am informed by Mr. Weymouth that in the case of Crane, the district attorney's office of Santa Ana was advised of the fact that there was a federal complaint and warrant in the U. S. attorney's office at the time the case was before Judge Williams and in the case of Wilks, Sheriff Jernigan's office was advised that information has been filed against Wicks by the U.S. Attorney and that he was being regularly held under the Federal law. In both instances that was done at the request of, in this first instance the district attorney's office, thru Mr. Mozley and in the second instance through the second instance through the sheriff's office at the request of Sheriff Jernigan. This information was in their hands at time they made their misrepresentation to Judge Williams. However, this is only a temporary tory on the part of the defendants as the warrants were already audited and I am informed that both will be apprehended by U.S. marshal. BRIDE LOCATED NEW YORK, Dec. 5.—Mrs. Dorothy Martin Hillman, Chicago's beautiful runaway bride, has been found, her mother, Mrs. Geo. W. Martin, announced today.

Many Anaheim Folks Are Showing How To Avoid Needless Spuffering There's nothing more annoying that kidney weakness or inability to properly control the kidney secretions.
