NEARLY CAME TO BLOWS.
An Incident of Sensational Story About
Pension Frauds.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., May S1.-The
Journal prints sensational article on
the unearthing of stupenduous pension
frauds in Northern Iowa and Southern
Minnesota. The investigation was car
ried on by Special Pension Examiner
Waite. Geo. M. Van Leuven, Jr., "A
pension attorney since 1865, at Lime
Spring, Ia, who has secured pensions
in the territory mentioned aggregating,
it is said, over million dollars, and DIR.
George Kessel, mayor of Crisce, Ia,
were arrested on May % on warrants
sworn out by Waite in Dubuque Each
gave bonds and was released, Van Leu
ven, his son and other adherents con-
trolled the news correspondents in the
two towns so they were able to prevent
any account of the affair being made
public.
Waite and Van Leuven had almost a
personal encounter in the latter's office
when the examiner got hold of certain
important files by force. Van Leuyen
declares that the official exceeded his
powers and threatens to institute suit
on this ground. The particular case on
which the arrests were madeiwas thati of
James Churchill of Minneapolis. 1t is
charged that the names of the witnesses
on his papers were forged. Van Leuven
claims that the applicant and not he was
responsible for the forgeries. 1t is al
legged that Van Leuven gave pension
applicant a letter to DIR. Kessel, saying
the bearer was seeking pension and
asking the doctor to do what he could
for him.

CONSCIENCE TROUBLED HIM.
John MacFarlane Prefers Peace in the
Penitentiary to Remorse in Brazil.

PHILADELPHIA, May 81. - Ex-State
Senator John MacFarlane, defaulting
president of the ruined American Life
Insurance Company and a wrecker of
the Bank of America with which he was
connected, surrendered himself to the
authorities this morning, in the court of
quarter sessions, and pleaded guilty to
the indictments against him. He was
sentenced to four years imprisonment in
the eastern penitentiary. MacFarlane
has been fugitive in Brazil, accompa-
MED by his wife and child, for nearly
three years. He returned to this country
because of remorse. MacFarlane, with
George F. Work, Louis f.. Pfeiffer and
James S. Dugan, the latter an employe
of the bank, wrecked the institutions by
borrowing money ON worthless securi-
ties. The syndicate secured $765, 900
from the American Life Insurance Com
pany and 1922, ,422 from the Bank of
America, and it is believed sunk the
money in organizing various rattle-trap
schemes. Work is serving sentence of
four years. Dugan and Pfeiffer were
pardoned after serving three and two
years respectively.

POLICE WAITED FOR HIM.
Collector of Berwick Company Arrested
in Boston.

BosToN. Mass, May 31.-Charles I.
Rawson, 46 years of age, an attorney, re-
siding at Oxford, Mass, was arrested at
the Boston 6 Maine railroad station in
this city at $50 o'clock this forenoon by
Inspector Mahoney, shortly after he left
a train. He was escorted to the police
headquarters, where Chief Inspector
Coulter informed him that he was under
arrest on a warrant charging him with
the embezzlement of $4,000 from the
Portsmouth Manufacturing Company of
Berwick, Me.
The complaint against Rawson is
brought by Treasurer Hale of the COM
pany, who claims that on May 25th he
gave him note for $500 to get dis
counted. The day following he got it
discounted for $4,000 in this city.
Treasurer Hale alleges that he has
asked Rawson several times to pay the
money over to the company, and that
Rawson has refused to do so.
Rawson appeared to be greatly per-
picked at his arrest this morning, and
explained the trouble as being entirely
mistake" he will now probably have
to explain the mistake in court. He is a
man of large physique, good looking,
and has large bushy side whiskers. He
dresses we'll, and looks like a prosperous
business man.
From headquarters Rawson was taken
before Judge Ely in the criminal court.
Being unready to proceed with the case,
he WITS ordered to recognize in the sum
of 5000 for his appearance in the same
court on June 14th.

that date was below 70o In northern

backward. Eastport: A pleasant week !;

SIR CHARLES STOPS SPEAKING.
Sir Richard Promptly Begins Another o
the Little Talks About Behring Sea.

PARIS, May 31.-Sir Charles Russell
concluded his argument in behalf of the
British case before the Behring Sea
Tribunal of Arbitration today. He said
this was the first occasion upon which a
nation claimed property in free swim
ming animal. The contention, Sir Charles
declared, was untenable and it's advance
ment derogatory to the principle of the
freedom of the seas. It was an extraya-
giant and unfounded pretension that in
ternational law sanctions the seizure and
condemnation of vessels of friendly
power. Existing international law was
an effective and noble instrument to
serve the just purposes of mankind in
the adjudication of their rights. He ap-
pealed to the tribunal to declare it could
not make law. Sir Charles in his perora-
tion dwelt upon the Importance of the
arbitration here submitted to by two
great powers.
Their presence as friendly litipants
is fact of great moral Significance:
their submission to the arbitration a
victory for peace, as the award will be,
If it leaves the principles Of international
law untouched.
At the close of Sir Charles RuSsell''s 8
address, the president Of the conrt,
Baron de Courcel, spoke in compliment
tary language of the ability and eloquence
which Sir Charles had displayed In his
protracted argument. Ex-Attorney Gem
eral Sir Richard Webster followed Sir
Charles Russell. Sir Richard insisted
that the questions of rights and regula-
tions were distinctly demarcated by the
treaty. Sir Richard argued that the
Russian ukase of 1899. dealing with the
coast of America and the islands and
giving commercial privileges to the
Russian-American company did not close
Behring Sea to foreign nations. Even
the American documents, he said, proved
this. He ridiculed the idea that the ex-
clusion Of vessels a hundred miles from
the coast was not an exercise of sovereign
jurisdiction. He quoted from Chancellor
Kent to show that the closing of the
Behring Sea was contrary to information,
+ al law.

CHICAGO, May S1.-Argument was be-
gun this morning in the, United States

of Philadelphia, and a stockholder
named Platt of Massachusetts, but the
judges decided, in view of its being al
most identical with United States Attor-
ney Milchrist's bill, which had preced-
ence in court. that it should not now be
entertained. Mr.. Milchrist read his bill
and proceeded to make arguments on its
merits.
