forged check on O. \V. LaBeile. pro-
prietor of the Hotel Mahackemo was
arraigned before Judge George H.
\‘osburgh in the downtown court this
mornixx. After a. preliminary hear-
ing he was bound over to the Febru-
ary term of the criminal superior
court in Bridgeport, which comes in
next Tuesday. Bonds of 81,000 were
fixed by Judge Vosburgfih.

Touchy. who registered at. the
Mnhackemo under the hum; of J. l".
Moran informed Mr. Lchile that ho
had been sent here by Ty Cobb of the
Detroit Americans to rest. up until the
season started in the South. and that
in order to avoid publicity be was
using an assumed name, he really
being Maurice Archdeacon of Galves-
ton. Texas, the speedy outfielder of the
Tigers.

He‘ claimed to know Joe Dugan,
third sacker for the Yanks. who is also
a. personal friend of Mr. LaBelle's.
and finally on Thursday. the sth of
this month. asked Mr. LaBellc if he
could cash acheck for him, which
Dugan had made out.

The check was drawn payable to
Maurice Archdeacon and was far 8150.
and was signed by Joe Dngan. Tuohy
endorsed it with Archdeacon'a name,
and after Mr. LaBelle had cashed it.
asked him to keep 375 of it in tile
safe for him. and to let no one but
:Mr. LaBelle give it. to him.

Mr. LaBeile was suspicious of Tuchy
at. first. but his suspicions were parti-
rally lulled _ by some telephone egg
that Tlioh’y received and the ‘latter
evident familiarity with Dugan.

Finally he called up Dugan at New
Haven. where Tuohy said that he was
stoppingnaud found that Dugan was
