Attempted Extortion.

Up Once More on Inc Olu OAaISS -
Attempted Extortion.
A month or six weeks ago one E. A. Buquoi,
who was at the time employed In the office OF
The internal revenue collector distributing
license notices, was arraigned and tried be-
fore United States Com missioner Quintero on
the charge OF attempting to extort money
from store-keeper. The store-keeper was
the prosecuting witness, but Buquoi, pre-
yious to being arraigned on the charge, had
arrested him, and succeeded In having him
sent before the United States Circuit Court
TO answer to the charge Of violating the
internal revenue law. In view OF the circum-
stances Commissioner Qulntero declined to
receive the evidence OF the toro-keeper, and
there being no other person cognizant OF the
facts OF the case, there was no testimony to
establish the alleged offense, and Buquoi was
discharged.
Since that time complaints have been re-
ceived frequently ut the internal revenue office
