Millionaire Held on Fraud Charge
A. C. Bidwell, a Buffalo financier and head of the International Automobile League, was arrested after testifying in Rochester on a fraud order case. The suit alleges misuse of the mails in a tire league scheme promising deeply discounted products to members. Bidwell’s league claimed 65,000 to 100,000 members nationwide and faced multiple indictments and failures as investigations spread. A tire company he headed was in debt to him while assets allegedly dwindled. The case follows a broader crackdown by the American Automobile Association and the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World.

Fire record amid vague notes at Ringe area
Fragmentary fire record entry describes a permit or expense line with a price of 1.00 and a service or item listed as 300. The text references multiple names and a date in a garbled form, mentioning a man and a dwelling and a two week period.

Oddly garbled dispatches describe allied and American military movements from Washington to Hampton Roads with references to forts, barracks, and coastal deployments. Notable names appear to include General Gustave, Henry Maddie, George Dunham, and William Wharton, alongside mentions of Newport News, Columbus, and Philadelphia as ports or staging points.
