GUARANTY TRUST SUED
JOHN R. FULKERSON ASKS FOR
*57,564.70 DAMAGES.
Plaintiff Alleges That Deposit Was
Made to Cover Amount of Check
and That Bank Agreed to Pay Same
But Failed to Do so and Cheek
Went to Protest.
CREEL EXPECTED TODAY
AMBASSAOOR. GOVERNOR
PEACE ENVOY.
AND
John R. Fulkerson is plaintiff in a
suit against the Guaranty Trust and
Banking company, in which he seeks
to recover $32,564.70 actual, and $25,-
000 exemplary damages, for alleged
failure to cash a personal check
against which there was a deposit suf-
ficient to cover.
The plaintiff alleges that he gave
a check for $50 on the Guaranty Trust
bank, in favor of W. 0. Gillam, and
that he made a personal visit to the
bank, explained the checa and depos-
ited $5o to cover the amount of same.
It is alleged that the cashier, W. L.
Tooley, agreed to pay the check with
the money deposited, and that Fulker-
son explained that failure to pay it
would entail mental anguish,' incon-
venience and humiliation on him.
Then it is alleged the bank received
the check and refused to pay it, that
the cheek went to protest and the
plaintiff suffered greatly thereby.

CHECK SCAVENGER SERVICE GOOD
Frank Alderete’s New Plan Is Working
Successfully and Complaints Are
Fewr-Allcys in Good Shape.
City Scavenger Frank Alderete says
that the check system recently adopt-
ed for the scavenger service has
proven a great success, aud that com-
plaints are now very few' indeed.
“Heretofore," said the scavenger,
“the householder would call for a
wagon, and at the first of the follow-
ing month would deny having had any
service. Now when a call comes in
the wagon goes out, collects the check
and does the work. There is no com-
plaint about trips not made, and the
people are better satisfied,"
Alderete says that the alleys of the
city have ben placed in very good con-
dition.

Sheriff H. T. Lestutter, arrived in
the city yesterday morning, to take
Lon Fori, the self confessed horse
thief, hack to AMhland, Kansas to
stand trial. The sheriff brought a
photograph and the $100 reward Which
was offered for his arrest some time
ago. Lestutter and his prisoner left
for Ashland at 6:20 last evening.
In telling his story yesterday. Ford
said that, he was tired of roaming
around the country, and that for the
past six years he had been in constant j
fear of being caught and decided to j
give himself up. He said that promi;
nent families In his home county were
responsible for his downfall, and that
of bis companions. Inti added that lie
would never give them away. He
had stolen horses and saddles from
men who were his best friends, hut
was obliged to do so, he said.
Ford and Clarence Allison, a com-
panion. broke jail at Dalhart, Texas,
about six years ago while being held
for the Kansas authorities. Allison
was later Captured after a woman had
informed the isdlce as to his where-
abouts, ami he has completed his sen-
tence in the penitentiary and is back
in Kansas. Ford has roamed about
the country during this time, with the
Selis-Floto circus, and has worked In
different rattle camps. He states that
while being pursued bv a posse In
Colorado, he was tempted to shoot
some of them, and had his Winchester
to bear on the leaders. On second
thought, however, he leaped from a
ledge and escaped without taking life.
He expressed his willingness to re-
turn to Kansas with the sheriff with-
out requisition papers, as he is anxious
to stand trial and serve his time, and
then lead an honest life.
