NICE rIrraE ID
BY winch Dollar Notes are Raised to
Five.

Harry Grant. a dapper young fellow Of
% summers, was arrested yesterday by
Officers Nolan and Dietrich ON a charge
OF altering one dollar notes by ''rlising"
the figures. Grant was searched. but
nothing was found upon his person Of a
eliminating character. District Attorney
Campbell has taken charge Of the case,
and he will be brought befo,e one Of the
United States commissioners to-day for a
preliminary examination He was arrest
ed on complaint of several parties upon
whom he had passed the doctored bills.
They are Milton Taylor, OF whom he Sc.
cured fifty cents worth Of lodging, and
John A. Upwall, of whom he purchased
ten cents worth OF candy for his best girl.
He next tried his little racket On Frank
Joslin in the purchase of tobacco, Joslin
WAS sharp enough to detect the fraud,
and refused the bill. Grant was surprised
an pretended to have taken it in change.
By this time the Officers had come upon
his tracks, and shortly after arrested him
at Baker 4 Johnson's

Secretary Morgan evidently has the
best Of the controversy with Delegate
Carey. The secretary Of the territory IS
the discussing officer Of the government
40 far as the appropriation made by
con xress for legislative expenses for this
territory is concerned. He is responsible
to the government for the proper and
lawful expenditure of the s25,oOO appro
priated, and he is held to a rigid account
by the United States treasury officials.
There being a question as to the legality
Of the legislature chosen in 1884, any ex-
penditure of moneys in connection with
or in behalf of this Legislature by Secre-
tary Morgan would likewise be questioned
by the Treasury department. Had tie
secretary proceeded to expend the $4,000
appropriated by congress for legislative
expenses in this territory, or any portion
of that SUN, and if the legislature itself
had been decided an illegally elected body,
Secretary Morgan and his bondsmer
would have been held for the amount
thus expended, and they would have
becu compelled to restore the money to
the treasury. Can any one, therefore,
blame the secretary for placing all the
facts in the case before the proper con
trolling officers of the treasury, who have
TO pass upon his account after the funds
under his control are expended by him ?
No reasonable man, approaching the sec
rotary 9 position, would have done other
wise. Secretary Morgan should receive
praise instead OF blame for his course in
this matter, for his report to the treasury
department has accomplished what the
people of Wyoming have desired-it has
brought the question of the legality of
our legislature prominently before the ex
ecutive and legislative authorities in
Washington. and paved the way for
speedy remedial Legislation by congress in
our behalf.

held another special meeting yesterday.
Chairman Hoyt, Commissioners II. B.
K,lly and l. c. Whipple were present.
The board concluded to dispose of as
much of the new years work as possible
before the regular monthly meeting, and
renewed their labors on the task of check
ing up. They took up the sheriff = re-
cords, examining the books, papers and
memoranda connected with that office.
1t is hardly necessary to say that they
found everything correct and satisfactory.
Thus Gar in their round up work the
commissioners have found nothing that

WITH THE NEW YEAR
Begins the New Law Firm of Corlett &
Riner.


Hon. ". w Corlett. ex-delegate in
congress, and Hon. John A Riner, ex-
United States district attorney, have
formed a partnership in the law business
under the name and style Of Corlett 4
Riner, and the partnership is to 60 into
operation to-day. The office of the new
firm has been established in the rooms
lately made vacant in the Corlett block
on Sixteenth street, by the removal OF
Mr.. Corlett's family to their new resi-
dence. Three rooms have been finely
and extensively fitted up and carpeted,
and are now in first class order. The
largest of the two front rooms will be oe-
cupied by Mr.. Riner, and J. G. Pratt,
United States land agent, will also have a
desk there. The other front room will be
used by Mr., Corlett, while the large and
spacious room back of the others will he
the library ROOM, and is already filed with
one Of the finest libraries In the territory.
v A word in reference 10 the two gentle
men comprising the new firm is perhaps
not out of place. Mr., Corlett has resided
in Cheyenne evor since it had a history.
Made his mark here and rose from a hum
bic position to stand at the head of the
Wyoming bar. As delegate in congress.
as county attorney, member of the terri
torial council, and in other public posi-
tons of trust and confidence he has prov
. ed himself to be a true. able and faithful
public officer. As a citizen his character
has ever been above reproach.
John A. Riner has also made his mark
in Cheyenne, and from a humble position
also at the bar made his way until to day
he has no superior as an attorney in
Wyoming. He came to Cheyenne some
years ago almost unknown, but by his in
dustry, perseverance and ability he rapid
ly came TO the front, and has not only
prospered but has won the confidence and
esteem of all. He served for a considcra-
BILE time as United States district attorney,
Alr. Riner has been for sometime our city
attorney, which position he has honorably
filled. Although still a young man, he il
married, and his little gem Of a family is
his constant pride, and for them he is
content to devote the best efforts and en-
ergies of his life.

A SWIRDLE UNMASKED.
Attempt to Raise Money by Forged
Drafts.
A Montgomery, Ala, Bank Victim
lied for $4,000.
Drafts by Stock Growers Bank
of Cheyenne.

A cunningly devised scheme to raise
money by means Of forged drafts was
brought to light in this city last evening.
George l. Sanders, or a person operating
under that name, has been attempting to
victimize the national banks at Houston,
Galveston, and other southern and west
ern cities 1t is feared that he has been
successful in swindling a national bank Of
Montgomery, Ala, to the extent Of
$1,000. The forged drafts, in each in
stance, were alleged to have been drawn
by he Stock Growers National Bank Of
Cheyenne. on the Fourth National Bank
of New York. and in favor of George L.
Sanders By the evening mail Dec, Both,
the Stock Growers National bank re-
ceived a letter from the Montgomery
bank. acknowledging the receipt of a let
ter from the Stock Growers National
bank. dated Dec. 18th, identifying San
deus, and requesting them to cash the
draft of the Stock Growers National
bank for Sc. 900. on the Fourth National
Bank Of New York city, enclosing the
signature of Sanders, and sealed with the
seal of the Stock Growers National
bank. No such letter ever having been
issued, the bank in Montgomery was i'm
mediately wired to that effect. On the
same day a telegram had been received by
the bank from the National Bank of
Texas. at Gllveston, asking if the draft
drawn on the F urth National Bank of
n wv York for 5000 was good. No such
draft having been drawn, a telegram to
that effect WIS sent. Previous tn this, on
Dec o6th. the bank had received a tele-
gram from the First National Bank Of
Houston, asking confirmation Of their
letter dated Dec. 18th. and requesting the
number and amount Of the draft covered
by that letter. As no such letter had
been sent bv the bank. the officials at
once replied by wire to that effect. The
work of a professional was now so appar
ent. that the Stock Growers bank, after
wiring to the Montgomery bauk. sent tef
egrams to all its correspondents in the
East warning them of these attempts to
negotiate forged drafts. Yesterday they
received a telegram from the Fourth Ma
tional Bank of New York saying that a
forged draft purporting to have been
drawn by the Stock Growers bank. had
been presented, and payment refused
From the time clapslug between the date
of the letter from the Montgomery bank
and the telegram from the Stock Growers
National bank pronounring the letter a
forgery, the officials Of the latter bank
fear that the Montgomery institution has
been ,ictimized. Cashier II. G.. Hay, 1
the Stock Growers National bank, sid
to THE LEADER representative last even
ing that the same scheme was tried IN
indianapolis, sixty days ago, by the same
party. II is very evident hat the work
has been done by some person who has
been in Cheyenne, and in some way have
become possessed of blank drafts, letter
heads, and an impression of the seal ol
the bank here.
