CASES MULrIPLYING-On Saturday it was
developed that Wallace Mcpherson, who was
arrested on Friday night charged with obtain
ing money under false pretenses, had been
prolific in his methods and experiences of
making a raise" both here and at San
Francisco He commenced by representing
that he had been appointed gardener for the
Capitol grounds, and upon the strength OF
having appointing power to nil subordinate
positions. and promises of appointments to
various ones, he is said TO have obtained nu-
merous sums of money. His principal raids
have been upon members of the Caledonlan
Club. Since his arrest he has been confined
in the city Jail, and his wife now states that
he is insane, an assertion which it is thought
by those whom he has victimized will hardly
be supported by an investigation and the
facts.
