FORGERY IS CHARGED.

NEsE RESIDENCE BONDS.
Kan Tai's signature Appeared Too
Often-An Arrest Made-Bail
Furnished.

Chu Sau,3a bright young Chi
nese is in the tolls of the law. He
was arrested Thursday afternoon
OH charge OF forgery. "A bond
signed by Mr.. Lau Chong and two
others in the sum of $1,000 secured
him twenty four hours liberty.
Chu Sau was at one time employed
in Judge Hartwells office. He has
since made money as a general
all-around man, half lawyer, pen
man, etc, etc.
But he was ambitious, and that
virtue, it seems, jailed him. 1t is
alleged that he started out by iorg-
ing the name Of MIR. Kan Tai, Il
prominent Chinese resident, 10 Il
sixmonths residence bond. The
forgery was not detected at first at
the Chinese Bureau and buoyed by
the success of the little scheme the
penman, it is charged, struck off
several more The complaint says
these were sold for neat fee.
Finally, however, the authori-
ties began to wonder if Mr.. Kan
Tar was going TO put up for the
Chinese race. A number of Kan
Tai" bonds were in hand and others
appeared constantly. An investi-
CATION followed and the fraud was
detected. Evidence pointed TO
Chu Sau and he was arrested.
The case came up i'll the District
Court this morning, but was con-
tinued to May 49, The accused

visit to China.
