11. $. 'GENERAL' FIGHTS REVOLT IN HONDURAS Part-Time Brewer, Soldier of Fortune Continues Colorful Career. By United Prctt TELA, Honduras, Nov. 17.—General Guy Molony, American soldier of fortune, who Is a brewer between revolutions. Is playing a prominent part In crushing the latest Honduran revolt. Molony operates a brewery at San Pedro Sula during peaceful intervals. When the call to arms was sounded early this week, he offered his
services to the Honduran government and was placed in command of the loyal forces at San Pedro Bula. His leadership was so effective that r eb e 1 troops were turned back from an attempt to capture the town. It was recalled that Molony has had a long career as a fighter In Honduran revolts. He once served under the celebrated General Lee Christmas. Christmas had been an engineer on a ba-
i
nana train in Spanish Honduras. He went to New Orleans and organized an expedition to capture the country. Molony, a veteran of half a dozen wars, accompanied Christmas as “commander of the machine gun regiment.” Molony, on landing at their Central American base, discovered that he was the entire regiment. There was one machine gun and one burro at his disposal. Nevertheless, the expedition carried on and the rebels decided to attack the city of La Ceiba. The federal forces fought stubbornly. Molony was wounded twice. He was credited with having killed General Fierra, one of the federal commanders. When he still was in his teens, Molony shipped out of his native New Orleans to Capetown, taking mules to the British forces fighting the Boers. He enlisted with the British and was wounded. He was in the thick of fighting in the Philippines when only 18. He served as police chief in Guatemala City following the Honduran expedition, but returned to the United States in 1912. Shortly afterward he enlisted in the army and was promoted so rapidly that he had become a major during the expedition against Villa in Mexico. He was commissioned a lieutenant-colonel during the World war and saw service in France. After the war, Molony returned to New Orleans. He was for three years the chief of police. When he retired, New Orleans citizens presented him with a gift of $5,000. NAMED TO WEST POINT Two Members of National Guard Are Nominated by Leslie.

Killer Abducts Niece of Ex-Police Commissioner
Chicago Girl Assaulted by Terror Gunman; Identity Believed Known.
By United Preit CHICAGO, Nov. 17.—Mis* Lillian Henry, 19-year-old niece of John Alcock, former police commissioner, was released today by a “quick trigger” gunman, who kidnaped and attacked her shortly after he had killed a man in a holdup. The return hoihe of Miss Henry, after being held prisoner in an automobile by the slayer-kidnaper for six hours, and her report that she had been attacked, caused police to intensify their already widespread search for the man. The killer kidnaped her about Wednesday midnight after tossing her companion, James Guisinger, 23, from Guisinger’s automobile into the street. A half hour earlier he had shot and killed Frank J. Jordan, 38, a salesman. Police believed it certain he was the same man who, on the preceding night, shot and seriously wounded .James T. McElllgott. Jordan and Miss Emma Danke, 25, were held up when they stopped their automobile in front of a friend’s home. As Jordan stepped from the autombile the bandit shot him down. Miss Danke screamed and the bandit fled. Jordan, shot in the heart, died instantly. The gunman appeared later in front of Miss Henry's home, where she and Guisinger were sitting in Guisinger’s automobile. “Don't try any funny business. I just killed a man down the street,” the bandit warned as he pointed a revolver at the couple and climbed into their automobile. He bound their feet and hands, then drove the automobile away. Several blocks away he pushed Guisinger Into the street, and drove away with Miss Henry. Witnesses said the gunman appeared to be about 22. Police said he undoubtedly was of the nervous, “quick trigger type,” and probably would shoot other victims unless captured immediately. Miss Henry, who Is a niece of Bishop Hogan, as well as of former Commissioner Alcock, said the gunman told her he had served a term in Pontiac reformatory, and that his mother had died recently. With this clew, and the slayer’s description, officers intimated they believed they knew the man’s identity. Miss Henry said the slayer told her that Guisinger “was lucky he didn’t get killed too.” “I shoulda shot him,” she quoted the bandit as saying. “He looked like a cop I used to know.”

OPEN PROBE OF UNPAID MUNCIE COURF_ FINES State Board §f Accounts Spurs Police Force to New Investigation. By Timet Special MUNCIE, Ind., Nov. 17.—Investi- , gation into affairs of Linton Ridgeway, Muncie city clerk, took anew ! turn today with police opening a ' probe into thousands of dollars i worth of fines which, it is charged, have not been paid in full and the ; defendants not remanded to jail. Chief Frank Massey today di- ! rected a staff of experts to check each of the cases which were brought to his attention by the examiners of the state board of accounts. Officials of the board, Including Lawrence F. Orr, chief examiner, are making the investigation. According to the figures obtained by the probers, the city clerk’s records show that fines in scores of cases were stayed. These, according to the investigators, never have been paid in full and the defendants never committed to jail. Massey said his attention first was called to the situation when he saw several defendants, principally those in liquor cases, walking the streets of Muncie long after their convictions in court. Several persons in the city who have stayed fines already have started seeking receipts of the payments, Massey said. • The Ridgeway situation appears to be another chapter in the outbursts of the city administration. Wednesday Mayor George R. Dale, classed by a Delaware county newspaper, as “claimant for the mayor’s post,” was charged with throwing a reporter out of his office. One Muncie newspaper printed the story on its front page, alleging Dale told the reporter that he didn’t “want anything to do with your outfit.”
