LINDHoLM AN EMBEzzLER.
Ex-Deputy Secretary of state Skipped BE-
cause He was Seriously Involved.

Ex-Deputy Secretary of State August
W. Lindholm has skipped the country.
He is short in his accounts in his office,
and because of this has deserted his
wife and family and gone to parts un-
known.
When Washington Gardner was APP
pointed secretary, after Jochim's re-
moval, he at once appointed j. w. Sell
den deputy, but it was agreed that
Lindholm was to remain until April /.
Several days before that date Selden
received a note from Lindholm who
said he was going to Chicago on bust
ness and would return in a day or two.
Not returning :when his service was to
terminate, and desiring to have his ac-
counts settled, Deputy Selden had
Lindholms desk forced open. The lat
ter had filed no receipts for postage
since Jan. /, since which date the audi
tors books show that he had drawn
81, 237.05. In his desk were found
Postmaster Rowley's receipts for
S626.05, so that his shortage in the
postage account is S611.
From the first of March up to the
date of his retirement Lindholm re-
ceived S1l4 40 in miscellaneous fees
and appropriated the entire amount.
lie also received S4,255 81 in franchise
fees. only 81. 46S % of which is ac-
counted for. Thus his shortage so far
as discovered is itemized as follows:
Postage account, S611 05; miscellaneous
fees. STA 40; franchise fees, 81, 232 64;
| total, 81, 95S 1s.
Lindholm's son, Eric, who is a mes
senger in the state department, deliv-
cred to Deputy Seldcn the following
letter from Lindholm to his wife, writ
/ ten in Swedish:
NEW YORK, March 2s, 1891.
MY DEAR ANNA-This is goodbye, perhaps
forever. am short in my accounts in the office
and with as much debts as | have could not
! hope to borrow any, even II they had given me
! time to do so. am going south but where l
| stop l don't know: IL depends how long my
small amount of money holds out. Dispose of
| everything in the house and go home To Sweden
| = II Eric can stay at the ofice you
| luck and happiness be found than for his old
| father BE kind to my old mother
! BE not too hard on me, We might perhaps meet
again. Hug the children. From your unhappy
| husband, AUG, w. LINDHOLM.
The deserted wife says she had no
| idea that he was in trouble, and knew
nothing Of his intention to leave home
until he told her an hour before leav-
! ing that he was going to Chicago. 1t
| is evident, however, that he went
direct to New York. She has no doubt
that he has gone to Sweden.
Before coming TO Lansing he con-
Quoted fruit and candy store and
bazaar at Ishpeming. He continued TO
conduct the business, a clerk having
charge of the store, and his friends
supposed the business was prospecting.
He was appointed Jan. /, 1898, by eX-
Secretary of State Jochim, and the
| fact that he was TO be witness at the
approaching trial of the latter makes
his departure at this time important
as effccting that trial.

The growing fashion of naming pri-

WILL ENGLAND DARE TRY lT7
Report OF n Plot Between Queen Ill and
the British Minister to Restore Her.

From Chicago comes a report, which
is declared to be well authenticated, of
n rather startling plot which has been
disclosed while Mr.. Davies, the guard
ian of Princess Kalakau, has been in
Washington. This plan contemplates
the restoration of Queen Liluokalini
with the assistance of England and n
British protectorate in the Hawaiian
Islands. Mr.. Davies is thorough
Englishman, his sympathies are en-
tirely with Great Britain. The plan is
to have the ex-queen proclaim her
sovereignty and then proceed at once
TO the British legation, which is imme-
diately across the street from the pal
ace in which she now resides, and there
apply for protection on the pretense
that her life is in danger. Mr.. Wood
house, the British minister, will recog-
nize her as queen and give her the pro-
lection she desires. 1t is undoubtedly
in connection with this affair that Mr..
Davies had. visited Washington, and he
has given due notice OF the intentions
of her majesty to the president and
secretary of state.
This, it is asserted, also explains why
Admiral Walker was so hastily sent to
Hawaii by the navy department.
