worthless checks. Heauf had made au offer TO
buy ont the grocery store of William T. Drury,
on Ninth street, offering in payment four
checks, drawn on the Bank OF Washington,

S2,797.50. The checks were drawn in favor of
Heauf, and signed with the name Of James
Hay. They were all dated June 6, and the
blanks filed up in fair business hand, cor
responding in each. The signature attached to
the largest check was evidently written by
the same person that filed them all. The other
signatures were clumsy limitations of the
first. in ink of different color. As no such
person as James Hay could be found, the facts
were made known to the detectives, and
HeauG WAS arrested and los ed up at Police
Headquarters. There are other complaints
