THE SURRENDER OF TAscoTT.

Under Certain Conditions.

Said to BE willing to Give Himself Up
Under Certain Conditions.
CHICAGO, Sept. 22.-While many
claims have been made of discovering
Willie Tascott, the alleged murderer of
Amos j. Smell, and equally strong asser-
tions that he is dead gained credence, it
is stated on the authority of ex-chief and
now Inspector of Police Marsh, that Tas-
colt is not only alive but that within the
last year negotiations have been in
progress between the Chicago police
and Frank Tascott to surrender the
long missing man under specified condi-
tions.
The negotiations were based upon a
proposition that the chief of police
should use his influence to have an in
dictment for burglary against Tascott
nolle pressed, that the chief should turn
over to him the reward of $50,000 to be
used as a defense fund, and that States
Attorney Longenecker would guarantee
Tascott fair trial on the Indictment.
On these terms Frank 3. Tascott was
willing to surrender his brother, and
William B. Tascott was willing to be
surrendered. A private detective agency,
which evidently had a tip, excited mis-
trust in the mind of Frank B. Tascott,
who, as Inspector Marsh expresses it,
finally got to mistrust everybody.

who undoubtedly had large following
in Chill, might not stir up another revo-
luton and reverse the order of things,
to the great detriment and disappoint-
ment Of the English interests in control
of the nitrate traffic. Colonel North re-
ceived the news at his home and is said to
have shown intense satisfaction. He
expects to profit immensely by the
change of affairs, as the Congressional
lists have all along been friendly to him.
and there is no doubt that he advanced
considerable sums Of money to aid their
cause in Europe. For this, it is said, he
will reap ten-fold reward, as the
value of his nitrate interests will be vast
ly improved.
A prominent Chilian, who, for fear of
making enemies at home, did not wish
his name mentioned, said
at is nonsense to talk of Balmaceda
having to fly from Chill. He would
sooner have surrendered to the enemy
than have left his native country for
ever, and he preferred death to surren-
der. He remained alive in Santiago
until his presidential term was over,
which was on Friday, Sept. 1S, and ON
Saturday he killed himself. The attroci-
ties of his subordinates are largely re-
sponsible for the hatred borne him by
the Congressionalists"

the Third Man Escaped.
CHARLESTON, W. Va, Sept 22.-One
of the most astounding swindles in the
history of the country has Just been
brought to light here by federal detect
ives, who have arrested Henry Ash and
George w. Rose, two of three ringlead-
ers. Robert F. Lively, the man who
originated the scheme, escaped TO the
mountains, but posse is after him.
Some weeks ago these thtee men
organized at ST. Albans, this county, a
branch Of what was alleged to be the
National Assembly" said by the con-
spirators to be a patriotic order, having
for its object the relief Of the national
government. 1t was proposed to put
into the possession of the government
the gold coin boarded up by the people,
to the end that the government might
be enabled to meet its obligations and
be saved from national reputation.
The treasury department, it was ex-
planned, had plenty of paper money and
had agreed that for all the gold coins
paid into the assembly and certified by
the officers there would be paid five
times the sum in paper currency. Moth
ing less than S2OO would be accepted
from any one.
The thing took in surprising way.
The country was secured for gold One
man paid in 81 200, another $500 and
scores gave $500 to $500 for the worth
less certificates" of the swindlers. The.
Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad company
paid its employees In gold, and large
sums of this money went into the cof-
fers of Lively and his pals. Poor men
borrowed, begged and mortgaged, that
they might raise gold, and many dollar
of hard earned savings went into the
local assemblies for the relief of the
government.
The postoffice authorities got wind of
the thing week ago, and Saturday the
arrests were made. The excitement
over the swindle is great. 1t is estimat-
ed that the swindlers obtained over
$4,000 from their dupes, many of
whom are left penniiess.
