QU0NG YOUNG WAS SW|NDLED
B~lackmailed Out of $50 BY O
Bogus Health Officer,
The Swindlcr Found Many Other
East-Sidc Victims.

AS the result OF a visit paid this
morning to the Health Department by
Quong Young. proprietor OF n Chinese
laundry In Rivington street. the officials
were stirred into activity In order to
run dow u fellow, who. posing as an
officer of the Health Department, has
been swindling in every direction. Quong
Young himself had been victimized out
of $50, and 1t was by the merest acct
dent that $500 more did not follow 1t.
According to his complaint he was
approached some time ago by n man In
citizens dress and wearing a shield. who
served him a notice to the effect that
his place had been condemned by the
Department. and that he would have to
move out. The man said. however, that
the matter could be settled for $3.50.
Quong Young paid $50 cash and prom
ised the remainder this morning. The
alleged health officer, however. did not
appear and the visit to headquarters
followed. ouong declared that other
Cinnamon lat been swindied in the
same manner.
An investigation was at once made by
the Department officials visiting a mum
oiS WIN SNNi
street down, and numerous victims OF the
blackmailer were found. 1t was also as
certained that shopkeepers. principal,
poor Hebrews doing n small business
had been mulcted In various sums al
over the east side.
The method OF the swindler was no
always the same. In some places h,
represented himself to be a policeman
attached to the precinct in which his vic
tim happened to be located, and showet
a badge to ~corroborate the declaration
Again he declared himself to be tn,
brother Of the Captain in the precinc
and showed a letter of authority purport
Ing to have been written by the Captain
But as a rule the health officer plan wa!
followed. and 1t worked admirably, as /
was the least liable to exposure.
The swindler is described as about thir
ty-flve years old. with a heavy sand,
mustache. Further details as to tn,
mans appearance seem to tally with tn,
description OF a man who has been unde
suspicion heretofore for the same Of
tense.

|CROKER NOT TO Be AsAcHEM.
The New Board Will Be Formed
Tonight Without Him.
His Partner, Peter r. Meyer, to
Qualify as Tammany Treasurer.

Half an hour after sunset this evening.
according to the mystic custom OF the
Tammany Society. the new Board OF
Sachems will meet for organization.
AS already announced in The Even
ing World" Richard Croker. to make 1t
appear that his retirement Is absolute,
will sever all connection with Tammany.
and as the Tammany Society is as
closely linked with Tammany Hall as
the Siamese twins were to each other.
he will not qualify as a Sachem.
But his partner, Peter f. Meyer. who
has resigned as al assistant Tammany
leader, SO that 1t could not be charged
that Partner Croker used his influence In
the organization through him, will quail
ify as Treasurer of the Tammany So
ciety.
Peter F. Meyer Will also continue to
act As the official auctioneer for the city
and the courts, an exclusive privilege
which Mr.. Croker secured for himself
and company, and which pays the firm
about $50 900 a year.
No one has been mentioned as Mr..
Croker's successor In the Board OF
Sachems. The place will probably not
be filled right away. Mayor Gilroy will
be allowed to hold over as Grand
Sachem.

SAD|E'S EFFECTS IN HOOK.
Sheriff Carraher Won't Let Her
Move Them from the Hoffman.
That Is Until the Actress Settles
Importer Jammes's Judgment.

The attachment which Albert r.
Jammes. the Broadway ~dry-goods i'm
porter and dealer. yesterday placed on
the property of Miss Sadie Martinez for
an alleged debt OF $1,000 (. is likely to
bring out some interesting facts regard
ing the ownership of the property which
for several days past has been being
auctioned off In the rooms Of Samuel
Kreiser. 9 West Twenty-eighth street.
When Deputy Sheriff Carraher called
at Kreiser's auction rooms yesterday
afternoon to place the attachment on
the property, Mr., Kreiser protested that
he did not know Miss Martinez in the
matter at all, and that all the property
which was advertised as hers was placed
in his hands by another person, and that
II Miss Martinez owned any equity In
the property 1t was unknown to the auc-
tioneer.
When asked as to who placed the
property in his hands. Auctioneer
kreiser re ss t g, say sr advised Mr.
Kreiser not to pay, out n Of the
money from the sale until an order
could be secured from the supreme
Court, for his examination as to who
was the real owner OF the property,
A%uctioneer Kreiser's statement that
some person other thar Miss Martinez
had placed the property with him for
make many comments upon the seeming
newness Of many of the articles, and
some Of the worldly-wise. with a sly
wink, said:
There is more than one way to adver.
tise," and Truly advertising in these
days has become an art"
Deputy Sheriff Carraher next went to

Be a dificult matter for Miss Martinez
to remove any Of her belongings from

Miss Martinez was at the auction sale
to-day. and said that she had turned
the silk matter over to her attorney
Abe Hummel, and that some settle
didn't know exactly what. However
she thought, the bill was paid and tina
she wouldn't be bothered any more
Miss Martinez was married to Fred
stinson. a theatrical manager. in Bos
ten ten years ago. She was never di
vorced. This point Is urged by Misi
Martinez in support Of her Statement
that her effects cannot be attached. a.
she Is a married woman. The auction
sale is still going on.
Miss Martinez says that all the good
which are on exhibition are her prop
erty, and have been In her use, and tina
q number of lots on the catalogue Of tn
sale did not belong to her. but were al
ready in the auction room when sh
placed her goods there.
This, she says, accounts for some O
them becoming mixed with her things
All the property not belonging to Nils
Martinez has been stricken from tn
catalogue, she says, by her order.
Miss Martinez resents with a grea
deal Of Indignation the imputation tina
she is the agent Of anybody in the sale.

Heavy rains have fallen for three
days, and the roads are in a pretty
bad condition. HOnokaa Sugar Com

Some time ago, while a Chinaman
and three japanese carpenters were
working on cane flume at the cross
ing of the Hakalau gulch some planks
gave way and precipitated two of the
workmen, the Chinese and one Japan
ese, from the dizzy height into the
water ponds of tie Hakalau gulch.
They Immediately sank and disap-
peared. Some days after the body of
the japanese was recovered, but to
this day the Chinaman's body has not
been found.

Portuguese, nearly all homestead
farmers, seven native Hawaiians, Gov
ernment officials, and eighteen of
other nationalities. All the Govern

tered, except the Hamakua Road
Supervisor, Mr.. Henry Hall, rank
royalist, and the Captain Of the Ha-
makua Police, William Green. The
latter says he will resign at the end of

the latter place.
The school attendance at the Gov
eminent school here on the opening
