CHICAGO. Jan. 2S. (Special.) Fur man D. Updike and his tow sons. Irving and Herbert, came together today in a dramatic meeting at the County Jail, the first. since the sons were arrested charged with a sensational plot to mur der, father, mother and sister. Mr. Updike went' to the County Jail In answer to a letter from the prisoners asking Mm to visit them and arrange bail and secure their release. The brothers received a note from the father agreeing to visit them. Mr. Updike arrived at the Jail at 3 o'clock. Satur day is not a visitor's day. but arrange' ments had been made to permit the meeting. Mr. Updike advanced toward his two aons with both hands extended. "Well, my boys." he said in a quiet voice, and then shook hands with both, Although the father appeared to be under a terrific strain to preserve his calm demeanor and steady voice, neither Herbert nor Irving seemed em barrassed. Their manner even became a little flippant regarding the com parative comforts of the jail and home. and Herbert assured his father that -jail is hell." It is understood that Mr. Updike agreed to furnish bail for his sons if they are admitted to bail on Monday at the hearing before Judge Burke. Attorney George Remus went before Judge Burke in the morning and ar ranged to have the court hear an appli cation for bail for the Updike boys Monday. At the time the grand jury returned the indictment their bonds were fixed at J.10.000 each. CHECK STAMP TAX OPPOSED K oprese n t a t i vc Mc. rt li u r Voices 1'rocest of Constituents.
