SALT LAKE CITV. June 5. Loreni
von Arnim auf Kenneredorf, who
claims to be a. relative of General von
Arnim, of the German army, is In jail
here and confessed today to the theft
of a strong box taken from the apart
' merits of the maharajah of Kapurthala
in a Salt Lake hotel Thursday, accord-
1 ing to the police.
Von Arnim, the police say, has also
revealed the hiding place of the box
L which, with its contents practically in-
tact, is in the hands of tl:e police. The
box contained about JS50 in forelgt
money and papers. Including "photo
; graphs in a secret compartment which
- Von Arnim did not open.
Among the papers are a receipted
bill for J2266 from a New York note
- a receipt for $7000 for a private rall-
. way car, a letter of credit for 60,000
. issued ln Bombay, and another for
30,000 issued in London.
Von Arnim was arretsed last night
at Ogden, where he attempted to ex
change English for United States
money. He talked freely of the theft,
the police assert, saying he obtained
access to the maharajah's apartments
here In the guise of a vendor of art
works.
Von Arnim was arretsed last night
made several acquaintances in social
circles, where he represented himself
au a member of the German nobility.

about $1200, which was reported to
have been taken by a hotel thief In
Salt Lake City. Sir Jagajit Singh,,
Maharajah of Kapurthala, India, is
here today with his maharanee, who
is said to have been the Senorita Del
gad o, a Castilian dancer, whom he met
while attending the wedding of King
Alfonso of Spain.
The thief In .gait Lake obtained not
only the currency, but also the In
dian prince's passports, it was said,
but he missed a. brass-bound chest,
which, according to reports, contained
a rare assortment of the maharanee's
jewels. When asked if the report was
true, the maharajah expressed the
opinion that American newspaper re
porters were Impertinent.
"But," he added, "perhaps the pa
pers have to be intimate to be In
teresting." The royal party, numbering half a
dozen retainers with 16 trunks, will
remain four days.

REMIUMS ORDERED BACK
Judge Galloway Passes on Mutual
lire Insurance Case.
SALEM. Or., June 5. (Special.)
Circuit Judge Galloway today directed
the Mutual Fire Insurance Company of
Portland to return unearned premiums
to the Oregon Merchants' Mutual As
surance Association and Horticultural
Relief, which failed recently. The
companies reinsured in the Portland
company, the policies being canceled
when State Insurance Commissioner
Wells was appointed receiver of the
companies which failed. Mr. Wells
contended that the mutual companies
must return the unearned premiums,
despite by-laws adopted by them to
ine contrary, because of a state law.
Under the ruling of the court the pol-
cy noiaers win ne entitled to the tin-
earned premiums if they desire to can
cel policies.

Organization Plays Often Enough,
hut Most of Its Concerts Are
Impromptu, While Its Reg
ular Dates Are Missed.
SAN FRANCISCO. June 6. (Special.)
The last remaining members of the
Portland Police Band have drifted
home. They did a lot of boosting for
Portland while seeing the Panama-Pacific
Exposition and had a good time
themselves, but some of the officials
of the organization have about the
same kind of regard for police band
tours that stranded operatic Im
presarios have for that sort of busi
ness.
The visit of the Portland police
was not all smooth. The band was on
the rocks soon after arrival, but was
again floated through the efforts of
Sergeant Ellis, who first of all de
posed A. L. Spencer from the manage
ment. Two factions developed within the
band, one supporting Manager Spencer,
the other backing Sergeant Ellis. The
internal trouble first cropped out when
the' band arrived and decided that
some of the arrangements which Man
ager Spencer . had made were not
suited to an organization representing
Portland.
Engagement Is Broken.
Manager Spencer had made arrange
ments with the Empress Theater be
fore leaving Portland, for a week's
play, but the musicians, after arriving
here, decided that the engagement had
no attraction for them and refused to
keep it.
It was then a case of "no funds" with
the police musicians. Other possibili
ties on which Manager Spencer had
based plans for a. trip to San Diego
were eliminated as beyond the scope
Of the band and the San Diego part
of the excursion was called off.
The musicians stayed around San
Francisco, playing Often enough, but
always impromptu. More trouble
arose when the band had an engage
ment to play at the St. Francis- Hotel
for one of the visiting Governors. The
orders were Jumbled 'and when it came
time to play, only three or four of
the musicians were there.
That same night the band was ex
pected at the Oregon building, but the
confusion over the first mistake kept
tne Dana irom niiing its second date.
Sergeant Kill Departs.
About that time, Sergean Ellis be
came disgusted witU the lack of
harmony within the Organization and
packed his suitcase, departing for
Portland. i
The uftnority faction then held a
meeting and Manager Spencer was re
instated. It was then too late, how
ever, to make arrangements for any
official concerts at the Exposition
grounds and the band gave several
more impromptu concerts and then
went home.
At the Oregon building, the officials
hardly knew what the band Was about
to do. It was impossible for the band
to make a showing on its arrival be
cause the plans of the organization
were unknown to the officials at the
Oregon building.
Later, the members and their wives
were guests at a luncheon at the
Oregon building.
"We came down thinking that all
arrangements had been closed and that
we had only to fill the schedule. In
stead we had all that to do after we
got here.' is the way one of the de
parting members put it.

HINDENBURG IS CONFIDENT
German Field Marshal Says Victory

HAXOVER, via London, June 6.
Field Marshal von Hindenburg, writ
ing to a friend in Hanover, where the
Field Marshal resided before the war,
expressed a longing to walk among the
trees of the city, adding:

Italy has postponed the time for such
recreation. The hours of the campaign
will thereby be prolonged, but nothing
can now change the final result. I am
firmly convinced of this."
