? Thursday stood challenged, today
from two sources. ' '
Franklin U. Dodge -whose .work
' ns n federal ngent gent liepius to
- the penitentiary brnnuVd as "king
i of the bootleggers," made point-
blimk denial at Lansing, Mich., of
liemus' statements linking Dodge's
name with that of Mrs. Hemus. He
denounced Remus as "a coward
and u liar one who never person-
ally offered violence to anyone ex
cept a woman or a child." .
Another charge that has come
from Remus' cell that Mrs. Re
mus stripped him of his wealth
while he was a federal prisoner
brought denial from Edward T. Dix
on, the nttorney who represented
Mrs. Remus in her. divorce action
- against the man now held for her
slaying. -
"I am certain Mrs1. Remus did
not have a cent save what she bor
rowed," Dixon said.
"The only . part of the Remus
fortune known to exist is tied up
by litigation. I would estimate It
at $200,000 or 3250,000."
Officials for the most port ex
pressed themselves as skeptical of
Remus,' story that he Is penniless.
They pointed out that he has been
driving about in expensive motor
ears and maintaining costly quar
ters. They said also that he was
generally regarded as a lavish
spender.

VIKNNA, Austria. Oct. 8.
V r i n c e Zerdecheno Mohammad
Salde, "emir of Kurdistan" and
pretender to the Turkish caliphate,
is in trouble again. He has beon
arrested here on a charge of fail
ing to meet a hotel bill after pass
ing as ".Mohammed Pasha Al Ita
shid. direct descendant of Haroun
Al Itashld."
The prince, emir, pasha, etc.,
has heeu in jail many times before,
so the experience Is not new.
When the Vienna police were call
ed in by the hotel management
they round him arrayed like a Bal
kan prince hi a comic opera.
This costume was not his best,
however. He showed the police
what he termed his official robe
of office, a gaudy red untrorm
weighted, down with gold braid and
sporting on Its breast ' 'decora
; tions" from all over the world,
i Despite all his magnificence, H
j developed, according to the au
thorities, that the "emir" had been
j getting his exercise over a pants
. pressing board. After Ironing all
(day he would don his glittering ai
f ray and sally forth for a gay eve
1 nfng. A pants pressor's pay won't
stnnd the strain of much social ac
tivity, so the hotel went unpaid, ac
cording to the management.
