Itumley. vice president of the Mail Express company, publish* r ol tit New York Evining Mail, was arrested in the oilice of the State Attorney Gen eral Merton E. Lewis. He is charged with perjury in arc port to A. Mitchell Palmer, alien prop erty custodian. Instead of being American owned, as Dr. Huntley is alleged to have told Mr. Palmer, the Mail, accord'ng u> Mr. Lewis, is owned by the imperial Ger- ! man government. Assertions that Dr. A. Huntley had placed all fits records at the disposal-; of the department of justice during personal visits to Washington led to bail being fixed at *.’?S.(KK) instead of *50,000, as originally a; ked. The attorney general charged Rum- I ley purchased the stock of the Mail ; and Exp: § company In June, 1915, from Henry 1., S -’dard, and that in doing so lie acted on behalf of the im perial German government. Further developments in the case | were indicated by the announcement | by an assistant attorney genera! tha•: ; federal grand jury subpoenas were out and that a broader investigation i would be started soon. A state official who has been work- j dig nit ti:*' details of the case against Dr. Kmnley said the latter had “es- j raped facing an indictment for trea | son by Just three days." Dr. Rumley, j it was said, received his Inst remit ! tance from pro-German sources on April 3, 1917. ami the United States declared war on April 6 of that year.

Williamson, j W. Va. The reason Vinol was so success- j fill in this case, is because it con- ■ tains beef and cod liver peptones, iron and manganese peptonates and glycerophosphates, the very ele ments needed to build up a weaken ; ed, rundown system, make rich, red blood and create strength.
