CORTLAND. Oct. 2l.-It came to light to-day
that George Fits had been vctimized to the
tune Of 5000. It has been an open secret for
some time that he had received attention from
a gang Of sharpers. but the result was not
known. This morning Fitts's nephew an
nounced the figure. Fits is a prominent
farmer In Mclean and is a stockholder in the
Second National Bank Of this village.
A few weeks ago two strangers drove
up to Fitts's residence and introduced
themselves as nephews Of the late Judge
Boardman Of Ithaca He fought shy Of them
at first, but they furnished such indlsputa-
BILE proof that soon he and the strangers were
on intimate and friendly terms. They were.

HAnarsBupo. Oct. 21.-The investigation By
the Pennsylvania Senate to-day into the
charges against State Treasurer Boyer and
Auditor. General McCamant, developed an i'm
portant feature by showing that Mr. Boyer
used his influence with the Superintendent OF
Public instruction to hnve warrant for $780,
600 drawn to John Bardsley out OF the school
appropriation to the Philadelphia school dis
trict before the payment was due
The warrant was drawn on Dec. 81 last to
pay the appropriation for the year 1901. Mr..
Boyer. who Is also member OF the Sinking
Fund Commission. explained that he did
this for the purpose Of keeping down the
amount in the general fund below

LONDON. Oct N.-The Cunard line steamer

York. previously reported as returning with her

they will be transferred to the steamer Rotter-

is probable. owing to the high wind and sea.
that the Scythia will not attempt to tow the
Edam to Liverpool
Tho Edam lost the blades Of her propeller on
Oct -. The Scythla spoke her on Oct 10. and
on that day the arrangement was made for
the Scythia to take her in tow. Bad weather
prevailed at the time: and seven hours was
night the scythia started to toy, the Edam.
and made 200 miles daily. The Edam will be

NEW HAVEN. Oct. 21.-There was some ex-
citement Mt the annual meeting OF the stock
holders Of the New York. New Haven and Hart
ford Railroad to-day When the report Of the
Board OF Directors was presented for accept
ance and President Clark called for remarks.
Henry Goodwin Of Hartford took occasion to
score the management He mentioned num-
ber Of cases during tho past ten years where
the company had bought and sold property
and never reported to the stockholders the
price paid. referring to the decision OF o case
In the Supreme Court during the past year. Mr..
Goodwin said:
Tho finding Of the court shows conclusively
that there was paid for this Canal Railroad
stock $40 per share. or $491 800 moro than It's
admitted market value. The court does not
find who proHted BY this deal. That was be-
yond the scope Of its inquiry. The report
made to the Railroad Commissioners in 1880
shows that this same stock was then inven-
toried at less than $25 per share. or at $287.-
1885, which was more than $685.. 900 less than
It cost
