A SHREwD swINDLER.
He Beats q. W. Johnson Out of $50
On Bogus Check.

One of the coolest and cleverest
cases of swindling that has been per
petrated in this city for some time
was played upon one of our popular
merchants Thursday night, and in
consequence of the same the mer-
chant now counts his bank account
$3.50 short. The facts are as follow
ing as learned by a JOURNAL re-
porter.
Thursday night as business for the
day had quieted down, a compara-
lively young man entered G. w.
JOhnson's clothing store on Com
mercial street, and asked to see
some clothing. Mr.. johnson COM
piled with his request and soon sold
the stranger goods, including cloth
ing, cuffs and collars, a valise, and
numerous other articles, to the
amount Of $40. In payment the
young man rendered Mr.. Johnson
IA check for $50, drawn by Ames
Bros. Of Silverton on Portland
bank. Mr.. Johnson told his custom
er that he had banked his money
that evening and was afraid he
would be unable to get the check
cashed. His customer said "Oh,
never mind, Just keep the check
until morning and | will call and
get the amount due me-" This
seemed fair enough and the custom
er departed, carrying his purchases
with him. AS he reached the door
he turned around and said, "Oh,
yes, you agreed to give me a pair of
suspenders." whereupon Mr.. John
son gladly gave his liberal buyer the
present. The stranger went to the
Chemekete hotel, where he passed
the night, dreaming, no doubt, of
how nicely he was working his vic
tim.
BY the time the banks were open
ed yesterday morning the stranger
at the store again and Mr..
johnson handed him the balance of
the check, $500, after deducting the
of the purchases. The
stranger took the next train for
Oregon City. This caused Mr..
Johnson to doubt as to whether
everything was well with him.
His customer had told him he was
for Ames Bros. at SilVerton
and as he wore clothing that would
Indicate that he was surveyor or
of that sort, Mr.. Johnson
believed him. However as soon as he !
became suspicious he tclegraphed to
Silverton and received word that
the check was forgery. Little re-
mains to be told, ouly that the swim
Her is still at large and Mr.. Johnson
refuses to try and catch his man.

hoped, however that he will recover

A. Oakley HALLS SUIT.
He Wants $4,000 Damages From the
Author of the American Commonwealth.
rspRCIAI TELEGRAM TO THE DIsP AToH,

He Wants $4,000 Damages From the
Author of the American Commonwealth.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPAToH.i
NEW YORK, October 7.-Ex-Mayor A.
Oakley Hall has sued James Bryce, author
of the much discussed book "The American
Commonwealth, for libel, placing his dam
ages at 100000. The libellous matter, it is
charged, is contained in an article
in that book written by Prof.
Frank Goodenough, of the School of
Political Science in Columbia College,
of which Mr.. Hall is referred to as having
been a member of the Tweed ring. The suit
has been brought in London, and it is ex-
pected will come to trial about the middle
of the month.
Prof. Goodenough said to-day: "Mr. Hall
claims that he has been grossly libelled by
a statement contained in chapter 88 OF the
book in question. 1t there says that Con-
molly, Hall, Sweeney and Tweed composed
the Tweed ring, and only repeated the accu-
sations made time and again and proved in
courts of law, that the ring had been guilty
of peculations. For various reasons Mr..
Hall is very anxious to rehabilitate his
character in the eyes of people here and in
London.
"a humorous fact. not generally known
here, believe, is that the Metropolitan
Board of Works, of London, which was
notoriously corrupt, engaged Mr.. Hall to
lecture, and in the course of his remarks Mr..
Hall vigorously claimed that he was the
person chiefly instrumental in breaking up
the Tweed ring. I think his chances Of
getting damages are very small"
