4 COLORADO SECURITY COMPANY
WITHOUT ASSETS.
GOOD MAN GONE WRONG.
The President and General Manager
Once an Honored Citizen of Denver,
Fugitiye-widows aud Orphans
in the East Especial Sufferers
Believed to Be in Aus
tralia Now.

DENVER, Col, June 19.-Henry j.
Aldrich, president and general mana
ger of the Colorado Securities COM
pany, left here five weeks ago without
saying a word to anyone as to his pur-
poses, and the creditors of the concern
are making strenuous efforts to ascer-
tain his whereabouts. 1t is now
thought he has gone to Australia or the
Sandwich Islands.
The hasty exit of Aldrich is due to
the fact that warrant for his arrest,
based on the indictment of the grand
jury, was about to be served, the
charge being misappropriation of funds
intrusted to his care. He also acted as
treasurer of St. Johns cathedral for
ten years and was considered here as
man of most sterling worth and deep
religious character.
Hundreds of ranch titles are. clOuded
by the acts of Aldrich, who diverted
funds RENTED by Eastern investors to
make good the shortage in maturing
obligations occasioned by the depre-
citation in real estate. He guaranteed
principal and interest on loans and
then began the downward course which
eliminated in the appointment of
receiver for the Colorado Securities
company three months ago. Even then
there was no intimation of anything
wrong and the disclosures only came
to the surface with the examination by
the receiver of the books.
The heaviest loss falls upon widows
and orphans in the East whose earn
ings and savings were intrusted to the
company for investment at high rate
of interest. One of the most distress
ing cases is that of a widow at Bloom
ington, Ill. She gave her whole for
tune to the Securities company and is
now supported by the county authori-
ties. The debts will aggregate from
100000 to $500, 900, and every title is
sued by the company has to be exam
ined before its validity can be estab-
lisbed
w. T. Human of Boston is here rep
resenting Eastern creditors. He says
that the Equitable Loan company of
New York is one of the heaviest cred
itOrs.

MAMELUKE MISRULE.

A. Military Despotism That Grew Up In
Egypt Under Turkey.
The condition of Egypt at the time
seeks in vain a parallel in history.
Saladin had followed tradition Of east
ern despotism in the formation OF a
body guard destitute of all ties except
those which bound them to his person.
Purchased as infants in Georgia or
Circassia, they were, like the janiza-
ries at Constantinople, trained to arms
as an exclusive profession, and, mount
ed on the finest steeds Of Arabia, be-
came the elite Of his army. In time
this body of acute and powerful men
transformed itself into warrior caste,
was divided into twenty-four compa--
MES, and obeyed no authority except
that of its captains. These were known
in oriental phrase as beys, the subor-
dinates were themselves what we call
the Mamelukes, and the whole formed
a kind of chivalry which governed the
land with despotic power, and, caring
nothing for the nominal suzerainty Of
the sultan, babe defiance to his shaky
authority.
The first portion of Bonaparte's proc
lamation sketched the evils of Name
luke tyranny, the second called on the
populace to aid their liberators. I'VE.
too, are true Mussulmans. Is it not We.
who have destroyed the pope that said
war must be made on the Mussulmans?'
Is it not we who have destroyed the
Knights of Malta because those insen-
safe chevaliers believed God wanted
them to make war on Mussulmans?
Thrice happy they who are on our side!'
They shall prosper in their fortune and.
in their place. Happy those who are
neutral. They shall have time to.
understand us and shall array them
selves with us. But woe, thrice woe,
to those who shall take up arms for the
Mamelukes and fight against us! There
shall be no hope left for them: they
shall perishv' The contrast between
this language and that which its author
had used in Italy concerning the
church shows how much sincerity there
was in either.-Prof. Sloane's Life Of
Napoleon' in Century.
