Misrepresentation of a Bank presi-

dent Brings on COwhiding.-A Fred
erick, Md, special to the Philadelphia Times
says: "Jos. D. Baker, one of the wealthiest
residents of this county and the President
of the Citizens Bank, was cleverly swindled
out of $1,000 yesterday. One of the dlrec
tors of the bank wanted a desirable farm,
and, knowing that Mr.. Baker was we'll
this section, asked him to make the invest
ment for him. A man had called the day
previous and had offered to sell his farm,
located in Leesburg, for $4,000. Mr.. Baker
knew the section well and thought the prop
erty cheap. To make certain, however, he
accompanied the sleek looking farmer to
Leesburg, and after looking over the prop
erty repaired to the hotel and gave the
seller check for the money. To make Ger.
tain that there was no trouble about the
sleep in the same house over night. The
latter consented, and the pair retired at
about the same hour. During the night,
however, the alleged farmer quietly skipped,
made his way to this city, and succeeded in
disposing of the check Mr.. Baker is just
$4,000 out, for the man did not own the
farm. He had given a fictitious name"
Mr., Joseph d. Baker is also president of
the national bank in this town, and was not
aware of the publication, which he alleges
misrepresents him, until he reached here
Tuesday last from Frederick city to attend
the annual election of officers OF the bank
He was much incensed at the report and
when he returned home the following night
cowhided the author of the article, and the
following particulars of which are taken
from the Baltimore Sun.
"Alton B. Carly, one of the proprietors of
the Frederick daily and weekly Times, was
assaulted with cowhide in the office of the
Carln House here tonight by Joseph d.
Baker, president of the Citizens National
Bank of Frederick. Carly is the Frederick
correspondent of Baltimore evening news
paper, TO which he yesterday sent a report
of a rumored swindling case, in which Mr.,
Baker was said to have suffered loss Of
$1,000
Mr.. Baker alleges that the item was un
true. TO night he returned here from Rock
vile, where he also has bank, and sent for
Carly. The latter is a short, delicate young
man, quiet and inoffensive. lie promptly
repaired to the Carlin House, where he met
Mr.. Baker, who asked him for an explana.
ton Of the item and also to remove his over
coat. While Carly was endeavoring to ex
plain and to show that the error had been
entirely unintentional upon his part, Baker
pulled out a cowhide and proceeded to lay
it on heavily on Carty's head and shoulders,
Carly did not offer any defense, but remain
ed calm and collected. The chastisement
became so severe that ex Surveyor of the
Port II. Clay NALL and ex State Attorney
Frank G. Norwood stepped forward and
asked Baker to desist, which he did Mr..
Baker is a tall heavy set, muscular man.
Carly, it is thought, will take legal action
in the matter to morrow"
Relative to the fraud the Examiner, pub
lshed at the home of Mr. Baker, says: 1--WE
have been informed by reliable authority
that it is base and slanderous fabrication, :"
