The Fall of Mr.. Dow !

Under this caption Thursdays Argus con-
tains a characteristic article, which, besides
being libei!ous. is su.ularly untrue in its en-
tire scope and spirit We learn that what
ever money was deposited in the hands Of Mr.
Dow by Mr.. Peck a. treasurer has been fully
paii BY Mr. DIV Mr. Peek did not convey
to Mr Dow before his arrest nor to Mr.. Dow
at all his interest in the Canada property
N5r has the properly been conveyed 70 Mr.
Dow since But Ire did convey 10 another
party and Mr.. Dow m tEust for the bonismen
his interest in tins property after lis arrest
The charge. then, that Mr.. Dow has trans
ferred "thi, property Of course falls to the
ground. Tie alb grI ''taiiure' u Mr.. Doy
is too absurd to dcmlnd further notice in
this form.

that certain paper in the possession Of Peck
relating to the transferred property was I'M
portant 10 him and that he must have ii. -

edge Of any such paper, never went with Nh.

tigating Committee The safe was not con
yeyed u the Gas Office, nor was iteyer open
ed by Mr. Dow, nor had he in any way, di-
rectly or indirectly, the slightest access to il.

notified Of the fact, and he declared it to be

facts warrants Us in making the above denial.
