How NIr. Cory Lost His Money.
HIS MISPLACED CONFIDENCE CoMRs NEAR COSTING
HIN TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS

HIS MISPLACED CONFIDENCE COMES NEAR COSTING
HIM TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS.
About O'Clock last night Mr.. Dwight II. Cory, of
Greensboro, Trumbull county, Ohio, In company
with Officer kearney, rushed into police headquar-
ters, and Mr.. Cory related the following story:
While at the Baltimore and Potomac depot, waiting
to take train for his home in Ohio. he was met by
young man with red hair, who gave his name as
George w. Morgan and said that he lived In Ashta-
bula, Ohio; that his mother and sister Were at the
hotel waiting for him, but he had some business
thought 1t would be pleasant for him Cory to
escort them to the train and have the pleasure OF
their company out to Ohio. Mr.. Cory thought it
would be pleasant to have their company, and
started for the hotel, and when near the
enue they met an old gray-haired man % about
sixtyfive years of age, whom Morgan introduced as
Mr.. Kelly, a merchant from whom he had pur-
pay him $3.50. Morgan then took a supposed fraud
ulent check from his pocket, which was drawn on
signed by Hunt, Haskell & CO. and endorsed by
Geo w. Morgan, payable In gold coin, and asked
the supposed merchant to cash it in order to pay
him the $3.50 The merchant not having the money
with him Morgan asked his new friend, Mr.. Cory,
to loan him 300; saying he would get the
check cashed and pay him when they arrived
they were going to the hotel after his mother and
sister, but the merchant said that they had already
The $780, and they started back to meet the ladies'
Morgan went into cigar store to make out q
receipt, and Cory went to the depot to find the
ladies' Not seeing any ladies answering the de-
scripton given him of them, he applied to Police
man kearney, who, after learning his story, told
him that he had been robbed. He immediately
reported his loss to police headquarters and In less
than one hour Detectives Raf and Carter and
Officer Quinlan arrested Morgan whose right name
Is Warner, and the supposed merchant, whose name
Is Kelly, on train at the Baltimore and Ohio depot
just as the train was about to start The officers
took them to headquarters, where they were both
identified by Cory. The officers recovered 500 OF
CoryS money. They are locked up at the nth pre-
cnct stationhouse, and Will probably have hearing

A Useless Office.


GENERALSHIP OF THE ARMY.
1t IS understood that the Office of assistant sur
ge0n general OF the army will probably be
abolished. The Secretary OF War, in speaking on
the subject, stated that while he did not know of
any proposed bill to that effect, still any such
movement would meet with his entire appreciation.
"The Office In my opinion" said he sis an anoma-
lous one, and answers no purpose further than in
vesting the Incumbent with an empty title. On
the contrary, it gives rise to great deal OF con-
fusion. There is no reason to suppose that Surgeon
General Murray is not entirely satisfied with his
present assistant, Dr. Huntingdon and In that case
If an officer outside OF Washington were appointed
assistant surgeon general he would not be brought
to Washington, but would remain on his present
duty. and he might well remain there as a sur
geOn.' In this view OF the case 1t is more than
likely that the nomination to the Office Is delayed
In order that 1t may be abolished.
