GIGANTIC SWlNDLE.

Stockholders in n Visionary Chicago Hotel
Find Themselves Out About s50,OOO-
Funds in Defunct Bank.
INDIANAPOLIS, May 26.-About twelve
months ago an alluring prospectus was
scattered broadcast in this state and also
throughout the south and west asking
subscriptions to stock of the Aldine
Hotel Company, of Chicago, to be paid
on the installment plan, all subscrip-
tions maturing in time for the worlds
fair. The money realized on subscrip-
tions was to be used. in constructing
the Aldine hotel, the subscriber to
board out his stock while visiting the
worlds fair. For example, would-be
subscriber would report that so many
members of his family Gncluding him
self would need to be entertained for
such time-the total cost Of enter
tainment would be footed up, and his
subscription would be on that basis.
The proposition was eagerly ac-
cepted by wholesalers, retailers, in
fact everybody having means. The
subscribers included Gov. Matthews,
State Auditor Henderson and scores of
other equally well known gentlemen,
altogether numbering one hundred and
more, and the stock taken ranged from
500 to $3.50 a piece. Gov Matthews
took 5000 and Mr.. Ballweg $3.50. The
latter part of May the subscribers we're
notified that owing to increased price
OF building material, labor, provisions,
ETC., rates would have TO be advanced
20 per cent, and the advance was paid.
Yesterday they were notified that be-
cause Of the great advance In cost OF
building material and the unexpected
demands Of labor the projectors were
unable TO proceed with the enterprise
but the hope was expressed that ar
rangements might be made by which
others would assume the burden and
carry the hotel forward to completion.
Nothing was said about reimbursing
subscribers. 1t develops that the presi'
dent of the Aldine Hotel Company is
also president Of the defunct Chemical
National bank and the supposition Ii
that money paid on subscriptions has
gone into this bank. Many Of the
smaller cities throughout Indiana were
worked by the same scheme. 1t II
estimated that fully $4,000 was
gathered out of this city alone. The
subscribers have no redress so far al
now knovyn

Inspector Mcdonald has put himself
into the limbo. II seems that his plan
has been to send out blank receipts for
his district agents to sign for their pay
and then he would fill out the blank for
any amount he desired and draw II from
the treasury. Mcdonald would send the
deputy his regular salary and pocket the
remainder. This made 1t look as though
the deputy had oyerdrawn every time, as
his signature appeared on the receipt
But they happen to know just how much
money they have received and Mcdonald
will have to account for the amount over
drawn. They are after him.

TERMS.
George II. Ely Will Accept.

In response TO the many suggestions
that he become a candidate for Bomipa-
tion for the office of state senator, MIR. Ely
has written the following letter Tor publi-
cation:
" suppose the thought at sometime
comes to every young man that he would
like to hold office. When this thought
came to me it was short lived. noticed
that almost every Office of honor or re-
muneration was eagerly sought for and
only secured by an active canvass in ones
own behalf. was convinced that the Of
fee should seek the man and not the man
the office, but, also, that this doctrine had
gone out of fashion, and it seemed that
every Office was sought and as good as Sc
cured before the public was aware there
was to be vacancy. |, therefore, many
years ago concluded that as | was unwl-
ling to do the work in my own behalf and
make the pledges necessary to secure the
needful help of others TO obtain an elec.
ton to any position of honor, my life
should be that of private citizen. Were
1 to consult my own pleasure alone, |
should follow the advice Of Socrates, and
choose that which l know to be good rath
er than that which know not whether 1t
I've good or bad, but when you suggested
my name for state senator, you put the
matter in such a light, 1t seemed that pos
sibly a duty 10 my fellow citizens was pre-.
sen,ed to me which should not be disre-
Carded. There can be no question in the
minds OF any who believe In the princi-
pies of the republican party, that to fartb-
er these principles in Lorain county the
party must be united. Your article suC-
gests that my nomination would tend to
unite the party, and the cordial endorse
ment of your views by the other papers
confirms this suggestion and presents the
matter to me in way that makes 1t my
evident duty to accept the nomination ii
1t is rendered to me. While / would ac-
cept the proposed honor as duty, lwould
not conceal the pleasure it affords me to
have 1t come in the way it does. | had
forgotten that a senator was to be elected
from this district, | did not know the
right of our county TO name the candidate,
which clearly shows that in this case the
man did not seek the office and a nomina-
ton is rendered without the candidate
making q single pledge to any individual
or faction to secure the nomination, other
than to be true republican. Under these
circumstances should be elected, shall
be under obligations to every republican
in the district as a republican, but in no
other sense, and shall be free to act for
this party and in accordance with my own
conscience and judgment, and my hope
would be that at the end Of my term the
endorsement Of the republican press Of the
county may be as gratifying as it is now.
Yours very respectfully,
GEORGE II. Ely.

Ex.Secretary Fosters financial failure
should be a warning TO many OF the bust
ness men OF today. Being over anxious to
become wealthy in few years, they reach
out and attempt to conduct too many
branches Of business so that the immedi.
ate supervision Of the owner cannot be
given to any Of them. Some of them
don'i pay and soon begin to draw upon
the head for funds, which soon causes en-
barrassment or failure Men should as a
rule, select such branches of trade as are
suited TO their tastes and give them their
immediate attention; then there would be
less failures to report.

Quoted a Gospel temperance meeting In
the Methodist church, Sunday evening,
having an audience of six or seven hun
dred persons A song service conducted
by Mr.. Huckins preceded the address,
consisting of an appropriate anthem by
the choir, several choruses by choir and
audience and solos by Mr.. Huckins, after
which Mr., Wolfenbarger gave an address
based on Isaiah 8, 22.23-"Woe unto Them
that are mighty to drink wine, and men
Of strength to mingle strong drink: which
justify the wicked for reward and take
away the righteousness Of the righteous
from him."
His elocution was Of high order, voice
fine, clear enunciation that made II II pleas
ure to listen. His logic was clear and
convincing, we may say conclusive, and
mingled with illustration, pathos and Incl
dent, made an address to move the heart
and fix the judgment,
We believe 1t will be considered by

RECRUITING FOR BRAZIL.


ornmcnt Cannot Object
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-James P Catch
ell, well known steamship engineer Of
this city, says there is no doubt that Flint
q Co., of New York, are procuring men
and engineers for the Brazilian service.
He says;
"Flint & Co. have to my knowledge
been corresponding with number of sea-
men and engineers in this city, among
them myself, trying to make arrange
ments TO ship MS. They want engineers
badly, and in their letters to me have
stated that they will pay 500 a month
and $500 advance money. When we enlist
we have to give up all allegiance to the
United States and swear allegiance to
Brazil. When we arrive at Brazil we are
supposed TO have an option as to whether
or not we will go into the government
service, Each and every man, however,
you will find will go into it, as they are
given to understand in a quiet way that
they are being taken there for that pur-
pose"
An official of the state department as
serts that that department is not author
lied to take any initiative in such a case
as this, even if the neutrality laws are
being violated The resort is to the courts
The Brazilian minister Mr. Mendonca
says there is no truth i'm the statement
that the Brazilian government is enlistinQ
men here He says none of the men en-
plOyed are under contract to remain at
Brazil, while, on the contrary, many have
agreed to go on the condition that they
may return Immediately. Mr. Mendonca
is well pleased with the progress which is
being made by the Flint company in pre-
pairing the FL Cid and Britannia for move
ment, but does not know when the vessels
will leave New York.
