for his arrest. That was on a Sunday,
and at 10:30 that night Crawford se

who roused Circuit Judge Morrow in
the night to sign a writ of habeas
corpus. The folio win g Monday morn

Evans to quash the writ was fought

and Ryan won. The victory was brief.
for as Ryan and his client left . the
courtroom Crawford was rearrested by
Inspector Pat Moloney on a telegraphic
warrant, just received from Phoenix.
At first Crawford threatened to fight
extradition, but at last surrendered
and was taken to Phoenix by Deputy
Sheriff K. A. Smith of that city.
Predlliction for Slang.
Crawford is a small, self-assertive
individual with a loud voice and predi
Uction for vivid slang. He came' to
Portland early last January from Seat
tle, where he had been working for
the Washington-Portland Cement com
pany. He was employed as extra for
a few days in the office of John Y.
Richardson & Co., public accountants,
and later took over the work of audit
ing the books of Wakefield, Fries &
Co.. being employed there about three
weeks. He had left their employ when
he was arrested.
The blank checks were not missed,
so that the L'nited States National
bank had not been notified to watch
for any forgery when it received a
telegram from the Tucson bank early
in June asking if Wa kef ield. Fries &
Co. were good for $5000. The bank
replied that it could not certify to a
check by wire, but that the concern
was well able to pay out such an
amount. When the check finally ar
rived through the clearing house, it is
reported that the bank tellers noted
nothing wrong, the most prominent
signature, that of D. W. Wakefield,
president of the company and one of
the ba nk d i rectors, being of unques
tionable validity. As soon as the bank
statements were made out the forgery
was spotted.

The checks taken were in a leaf of
the firm's check book and had been

BELGIANS JEALOUS OF FLAG
Tatriotir Societies Protest Ve of
National Color by Grrinan.
BRUSSELS. Belp-ian patriotic socie
ties are forming: to take action to pre
vent the Belgian republic from adopt
ing: the Relgrian national colars black,
yellow and red for its flag;. Intense
indignation is manifested, and this is
a bit heightened by the plan that the
colors in the new German emblem will
foe disposed of horizontally instead of
vertically.
It is generally supposed that the Bel
frian colors of today were chosen by
th patriots of 1S30. but the revolution
ists of that year merely took for them
selves the black, yellow and red which
Jiad been legendary in Flanders and
the Brahant since the middle ages.
The princes of Flanders bore on their
arms a black lion on a field of gold,
and those of Brabant a golden lion on
A field of black. The trappings of both
were red. From the thirteenth century.
therefore, the Belgian colors have been
tlack. yellow and red.
An argument against the use of the
colors by the Germans i sthat the Bel
gians have actually employed the black
yellow and red horizontally in their em
blems notably in their mercantile
lags so they consider they still have
a. ppriority on that disposition of the
colors as well as the vertical use. The
horizontal bar.- were adopted by the
patriots who overthrew the Austrians
in I7S9. In 1S:0 the first flag to fly
from the Hotel de Ville- in Brxissels was
the horizontal-barred black, yellow and
re.
The Belgians scorn the plea of the
Germans thit they have the right to
use the colors because of their use by
' the ancient German empire, of which
Austria was the center. They assert
that the confusion r:;ultinff from the
employment by Germany as well as
Belgium of the black, yellow and red
would be embarrassing to the nation
which had fought four years to keeps
Its colors unsullied.
appeared untouched, .though the dis
crepancy in serial numbers would have
been discovered if checked up.
Crawford came to Portland with good
recommendations, most of them from
firms in Arizona, in which state he had
made his home for the greater part of
five years. One letter was from Gov
ernor Hunt of Arizona. When he was ar
rested for wife desertion, he main
tained that it was part of a political
plot. a. frame-up of his enemies to dis
credit him because of a role he had
played in a governorship campaign.
Dispatches from Arizona indicated that
nothing was known there of any politi
cal connections of the prisoner ,
Prior to last January. Crawford had
lived in Portland for a short time with
his wife, staying at the Almira apart
ments. according to Pinkerton re
ports, but the exact date is not known.
He was employed at that time by the
Oregon electric railroad, it Is said.
When Crawford arranged for his ac
count at the Tucson bank, he told of
ficials that he had done some large
contract worK for the city of Portland
and that the check from Wakefield.
Fries and company was for services
he had rendered that company. When in
Portland he was quite boastful of al
leged business exploits in other cities.
Phoenix Waives Claims.
Phoenix authorities have indicated
that they are willing that Portland
should take Crawford when he is
caught. t rather than prosecuting him
there for breaking his parole. So far
as is known here, Crawford has no
criminal record.
Crawford was born at Renovo, Pa..
near Harrisburg. in August, 1885. and
members of his family still live there.
His father. Isaac Crawford, is still in
that city, and his brother. Rev.. Mott
Crawford, is a Methodist minister of
that parish.
Leaving his home town with his wife.
Mrs. Beatrice Crawford, about five
years ago. Crawford took up his quar
ters in Phoenix, where he was ac
countant for several firms and also was
employed by the Arizona & Eastern
railroad. Since he began to pay less
attention to his wife, early in the year
1918, another woman entered his life,
who is known to have been with him
for a short time in Los Angeles, and
is presumed to have been with him part
of the time during his residence in Se
attle and -Portland. Mrs. Crawford
brought the charges of non-support
against him in November. 1S18. but
he could not be found until the last part
of March, in this city, where he was
stopping at the Washington hotel.
