"Ketchum & Cheatum" scheduled to follow Mr. Wagner's talk, the dinner of the South I5end Association of Credit Men to be held In the Kotary room of the Oliver hotel Friday nijht, promises to be one of tho best meetings ever held by that orKanization. .Mr. Wagner has had much experience in the adjustment bureau of the Chicago association and will discuss matters In connection with the various phases of commercial fraud. At the meeting a year a.go, "Ketchum Sc Cheatum" managed to "put one over," but at the coniiny meeting they am to be brought before the courts of justice. The "Ketchum - Cheatum" affair at the last year's meeting proved to be unusually interesting and as the same cast of characters is to be used, much interest is bing evinced. The following members will be Included in the trial: L. M. Hammerschmidt, I). M. Shively, W. G. Crabill. L i:. Pease. C. L Zitier. S. J. Reynolds, A. II. Katterheinrich, Jessica Pond, F. 1 1.

Lend. Mittemeyer was taken to Chief of Police Peter Kline's otllce and the chief proceeded to question him when Z. Dekelboum, a South Lend attorney interfered and informed the chief that he had no right to question Mittemeyer without allowing his counsel admittance to hl. office. The chief informed the attorney that he had the authority to question the man In custody since he had been directly connected with the Saturday night meeting of "Ueds" and had been under suspicion since that time. Upon Dekelboum'a failure to gain admittance to the office of the chief the attorney advised Mittemeyer that he was not forced to answer the questions of the chief and gave him strict instructions to "keep shut", and not say a word until the chief would consent to the admission of the attorney.
