Absolved from any blame whatsoever and thanked for his assistance to the officers in uncovering the Ernest L Zlmmer alleged check swindle, W. II. Hlckey of Oakland, Cal., an accountant, Is on his way home. Zlmmer was In dicted by the Multnomah county grand jury Friday on a charge of having a fraudulent check . In his possession, which is a t felony in this state. The local indictment is by agreement be twen the district attorneys in Portland and Oakland, and Zlmmer will not be taken to the latter city. Six or seven years ago Hlckey entered the employ of a man in Oakland, and withdrew after being there two weeks, upon 1 discovery of crookedness in the business. It is presumed that Zimmer knew of this, and thought that Hickey was a participant ip the unlawful deals at that time. Hlekey Taken Into Confidence Zimmer approached Hickey, it Is charged, in relation to cashing a $30,000 check,' presumably certified by the Security National bank of Minneapolis. He suggested that the check be brought to Portland and passed in a real estate deal, it is alleged. Hickey asked for two days to consider the matter and went immediately to the office of District Attorney Hynes In Oakland and. exposed Zimmer. Hynes suggested that he go through with his end of the swindle to a point where a clear case could be made against Zim mer. Hlckey readily agreed and under the name of Samuel Thorpe, arrived in Portland the day before Zimmer. Zlmmer sought out a number of real estate' men and looked over considerable salable property in Portland, but among the real estate agents there was always a detective. attiiuxucr vt uuiu uniuo jhuubj r t .a it I t .a -m- ..

I thought maybe I could drive you over to tne movies." "You will, If you stay long enough. T. Paer said, burying his nose In the paper again. S-Ceat Fare Ghost "I'll wait, if It Isn't too long." T, Dodger assured him Imperviously, 'What's bo. interesting in the paper?" "Six cent fare," T. Paer answered without looking up. "That reminds me," T. Dodger said diplomatically, "I was taking lunch this noon with Frank Griffith and Harry Corbett and George Baker, and some of the other boys, and" "They paid for it," T. Paer finished. "I was their guest," T. Dodger said with dignity. "They think you are a fine fellow and it hurts their feelings to see you get off wrong on this six cent fare business like you have." "Yes," said T. Paer, "I'm a fine fellow as long as I put up the kale and grin, but I'm an awful boob when I holler. They love me like the milkman does his cow. Just as long as I can be milked without being hobbled." "We couldn't do without the street car company," T. Dodger suggested. "If it wasn't for it Portland would be a bunch of stumps." "And," countered T. Paer, "the street car company can't do without us. If it wasn't for us it would be a 'horse car line." Yes," T. Dodger agreed, "we are ln- terdependent We can't get along with out it, ana it can t get along without us.
