The middleman.
IAN thu Year Round.l

The actual name of middleman is oi
Irish origin. 1t was found, early in the
eighteenth century, by far more pleasant
for the nonresident proprietor of great
but neglected Irish property to come to
terms with plausible land-jobber than
to raise his rents from the semi-barbar-
Gus tillers of the soil. The English
nobleman, the governors of some English
hospital, or the dons of some English col.
lege, shrank from personal contact with
a swarming clan Of sub-tenantry, who
talked Erse, and of whom it was impos-
sible to predicate with any degree Of GER
tainty when they could not, and when
they merely would not, pay.

THE AMBROSE INDICTMENTS
Become Matter Of Record and Bail Fixed
at $4,000.


at $4,000.
At the opening Of the United States
Court this morning Judge Hoadly and
Edgar M. Johnson, attorneys for Ambrose,
requested that the bail in the different
cases against their client be fixed before
the arraignment was made, and afler a
short discussion with the District Attor-
ney, Judge Swing fixed the bail in the case
of making false claims at
5000, and in the cases of
perjury and embezzlement at 81, 900 each.
This is $1,000 less than the bail required
upon his first arrest. Mr.. Ambrose was not
in court. and the arraignment will not be
made until the attorneys have time to ex-
anime the indictments
The first Indictment charges Ambrose
with making false, fictitious and fraudulent
claims against the Government, and con-
tains five counts which summarizes the
cases in which the claims were made.
The second count charges Ambrose with
perjury and contains four counts, which
repeat the cases where affidavits are made
to false claims.
The third count is the chaage of embezzle-
ment and contains four counts. The first
charges the prisoner with embezzling
$5, 900, the second with embezzling So, 900,
and the third and fourth each with embez-
ling 1000.
In the last Indictment, however, the date
in the first two counts is written out one
thousand eight hundred and nine which
mistake will throw these first two counts
out but the remainder of the indictment
will be good.
