Bonds Originally Fixed at

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.
