The experience OF Geo. A. Apgar, of
German Valley, N. j., is well worth re-
membering. He was troubled with
chronic diarrhna and doctored for five
months and was treated by four differ

began using Chamber1ain's Collie, Chol-
era and Diarrhna Remedy, of which one
bottle effected complete cure. It is

lis A BAD YOUNG MAN.
Bank Robber De France Lays in Jail
While His Record Of Crime
Comes to Light.
WENT IN FOR BIG MONEY
But He Was Tripped Up by Being Too
Fast About Getting Rich With
out Working.

MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 11.-There is grad.
ually coming out the unwritten history
OF the career Of the famous StonewanJ J.
De France, the notorious forger, who
now languishes in the jackson, Mich,
state prison for a term Of seven years.
De France, who victimized banks in
nearly every city of any size in the
country, once cut his capers in Kalama-
ZOO, Mich, and it fell to the lot Of that
city to send him behind the bars. Since
his incarceration photographs of De
France have been sent to every place
where it is thought he has worked his
shrewd games, and, as a result, there
comes a story from Indianapolis, which
is a chapter in De Frances life immedi-
ately previous to his escapades in Min.
neapolis.
Names Were Plenty with Him.
In Indianapolis De France sailed
under the name of Cameron Elliott.
John S. Duncan, an Indianapolis atto1.
ney, has made al affidavit, and filed the
same with the comfy clerk at Detroit,
Mich, as a part of the proceedings
against De France, brought by
Arthur G. Anderson, and attached
to the affidavit is a picture of De
France taken in his prison garb. The
affidavit says the picture strongly re-
sembles Cameron Elliott, a man for
whom the attorney drew up a legal
paper March, 1892. At the time the
document was being drawn up Elliott
stated to Attorney Duncan that he was
going to Minneapolis to buy some real
estate, and asked for a letter of intro.
duction to a Minneapolis attorney. A
letter was given to Elliott introducing
him to Attorney Charles Jelley, who
moved from Indianapolis to this city.
Kept on Swindling I~ndianapolis Banks.
Cashier Bosom of the Indianapolis
Bank Of Commerce, still further identi-
fes the alleged Elliott as De France
from the pictures furnished by the au-
thorities of the jackson prison. In
March, 1892, Cameron Elliott deposited
with Cashier Bosom 81, 1000. Elliott
checked the money out, and on March
~ he had executed in his favor two
drafts Of $500 each, upon the United
States National Bank of New York.
Made a Break For $4,000
On April "A the cashier Of the Indian
apolis bank was thunderstruck to re-
ceive a telegram from the New York
bank saying that two drafts for $35, 600
each had been presented for payment
by Cameron Elliott against the Com
mercial bank of indianapolis. The
cashier of the latter institution immedi.
ately wired TO New York that no such
draft had been drawn, and the attempt
to collect the $40, 600 made by De France
was frustrated.
Soon aftea De France appeared in
Minneapolis, and by his artful work
mulcted a local bank out OF s$S2S, 900.

Membership Reduced by Hard Times, But
Finances Are o. X.
HARRISBURG, Pa, Sept. 11.<Nearly
every railroad in the United States is
represented in the fourth biennial con-
vention of the Brotherhood Of Loco
motive Firemen. The attendance is
the largest in the history Of the order.
The present convention will be one Of
paramount Importance to the order
from the fact that numerous questions
growing out of the recent boycott strike
and the attitude of the American Rail-
way union toward this and other rail
way organizations that preserved an
independent course during the recent
troubles are to be considered, while the
future course of the organization to-
wards similar movements will be clearly
defined.
Secret Meetings, With Passwords, Etc.
The convention will last for fully a
week, and the business will be trans
acted in executive session with the usual
accessories of passwords, doorkeepers
and sentries. The only public meeting
OF the week took place Monday evening
at the Grand Opera House, when the
delegates were welcomed in behalf of
the city and the local lodges Of the order.
At the opening session Of the conven-
ton Grand Master Sargent delivered a
lengthy address, reviewing the progress
OF the order and the trouble with which
it had commended since the last biennial
convention.
Total membership Aug. / was 26,508.
Financially the brotherhood was never
in a better condition. The surplus on
hand amounts to $77, 279.

GOES AGAINST HENRY WILLARD
Receiver Oakes Exonerated by Master in
Chancerv Cary.

) Receiver Oakes Exonerated by Master in
Chancerv Cary.
MILWAUKEE, Sept. 11.-Master in
Chancery A. L. Gary has filed his re-
port on the matters referred to him for
investigation in connection with the
Northern Pacific receivership contest.
The report is a bulky document cover
ing l53 closely typewriter pages and
contains about $4,000 words. It is a
complete victory for the receivers, the
master generating Thomas F. Cakes
from every charge preferred against
him; but Henry Willard is fount guilty
Of having made unlawful gains as a di-
rector Of the Northern Pacific Railroad
company to the amount of 1868, 691. 20.
About last Christmas suit was begun
by President Burton Ives of the North
ern Pacific company for the removal of
the receivers appointed by the courts.
The motion was denied in the case of
all except ex-Presidcnt and Receiver
Cakes, and Mr.. Gary was appointed a
master in chancery to take testimony in
relation to him and render a report.
The testimony was taken in various
places throughout the country, much Of
it in New York. The written testi-
money embraced over 1,O0O,O 900 words.
Doing Away with Branch Line Receivers
Receiverships of "a branch lines Of
the Northern Pacific railroad will be
abolished, to reduce expenses $4,000 a
year.
The receivers were appointed last
October, Henry Stanton and Alex Nc
Kenzie being appointed receivers for
most of the branches. By the new ar
rangement none of the leases are to ex-
tend beyond the life of the main line
recoivership.
Another Step Towards Reorganization.
Negotiations have also been concluded
by which the Spokane and Palouse road
and the Northern Pacific and Puget
Sound Shore roads have been leased to
the main line receivers, the former at a
reduced interest charge Of $41, 400 the
first Is months and $40, TAB the second
10 months. The Puget Sound Shore
road lease calls for a reduced interest
charge Of $4l,490 the first Is months
and 500, 745 the second IL months.
The new arrangement marks a great
step towards the effective reorganiza-
tion Of the Northern Pacific road.
