How Moses A. shaw Raised Hfg Ii
links I'm Financial Circles.
WASHINGTON, December 13.-Moses A..
Shaw, for whom the authorities of Brad.
ford and Tioga counties, Pa, as well as
several New York merchants, have been
searching for the last three months, was
arrested here today on the charge of
swindling to the extent of several hun
dred thousand dollars. Aside from the
large amounts Of money involved, it is
said several merchants Of Nav York and
elsewhere have been drawn into a state
verging on bankruptcy. Shaw frat be-
came known as a lumber dealer in
Towanda, Bradford county, Pa, and re-
NAMED in that town nearly 20 years.
His credit rose to such height that over
forty banks in Pennsylvania are said to be
sufferers through accepting his notes.
Years ago he moved to Plainfeld, N.
o.. where he became more intimately
connected with New York merchants.
In 1887 he failed, with liabilities Of $780,
900. Among his creditors was J. w.
Butter6eld, Of Plainfield, for 500, 900.
Shaw arrived here Tuesday. Prosecut-
ing Attorney Mather, of Tioga county,
Pa. who is here with requisition from
, Governor Beaver, says the full amount
that Shaw obtained by worthless notes
is nearly 100000, but many of these
notes are beyond the statute of limita-
ton.

A MORMON MANIFESTO
The Saints Profess Fealty
to the Government.
THEIR INNOCENT PRETENSIoNs
They Deny All the Charges Made
Against the Church at
the Recent Hearing.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
SALT LAKE, December 13.-Wilford
Woodruff, George Q. Cannon and Joseph
r. Smith, apostles Of the Mormon church
have issued another manifesto I'M.
quali6edly denying all charges made
against the church in the recent hearing
before Judge Anderson. So far from any
doctrine or teaching of the church being
hostile to the United States Government,
the members of the church are under
divine command to revere the constitu.
ton as q heaven-inspired instrument,
and obey as supreme all laws made in
pursuance to It's provisions. The signers
of the manifesto regard the attempt to
exclude aliens from naturalization and
citizens from the elective franchise on
account of membership in the Mormon
church, as impolitic, and a dangerous
encroechment upon civil and religious
liberty. They earnestly appeal to the
American press and people not to con-
denim the Latter Day Saints unheard.
