Salisbury, March 28—Chief of Police Gallimore has returned from Columbus, Ohio, without Ernest J.F. Crewe, former publisher of the Lexington Dispatch, who is wanted in Salisbury for giving a worthless check. Governor Donahey of Ohio refused to honor the requisition papers with which the Salisbury officer was armed. Crewe’s offense was listed as a misdemeanor.
The Ohio official gave as his reason for not honoring the requisition papers on the ground that the check was not given with intent to defraud and that the case was one in which an attempt was being made to collect a debt. Also that the man wanted was not a criminal but a “clean-cut” young man with financial difficulties in the south and that he will repay every cent. It is said that his father is a well-known minister.
