was arrested last night on warrant
charging him with felony and embez-
element. The complaining witness is

widow, of Denver. She claims that
Snowden. who Is twenty-eight years
OF age. induced her to come to San
Francisco on a promise to marry, and
then cajoled her out Of her money and
jewelry and disappeared According
to the woman's story, she met Snowden
in Denver, some months ago, and after
brief acquaintance consented to mar
ry him. He was in a hurry to get
back East at the. time. and she prom
1sed to join him at any time he sent
for her. In pursuance of this agree
ment, Mrs. Williams started for San
francisco, arriving here In company
with Snowden. who had gone to Sacra-
mento to meet her ON Aug 10. The
young man took the widow to the
Palace, where she registered and pro-
cured q room. For some reason or
other, her intended husband put off
the marriage from time, to time until he
had succeeded in borrowing all her
money and jewelry on one pretext or
another. Then he afdisappeared. Mrs.
Williams waited patiently for him to
turn up, but after several days began
to realize that she had been defrauded
and that she was running into debt at
a fashionable hotel with nothing in her
purse to warrant lefestay
= Mrs. Williams waited until her bill
had reached $50, when the hotel man
agement insisted on payment. The
widow explained her position and was
sent away from the hotel, her baggage
being held for her board The woman
was utterly penniless and was COM
PEELED to seek shelter In a charitable
institution. Snowden says he met the
woman in Denver through a newspaper
personal.

FAvoKABLE BANK STATEMENT
Effect of the Gold Imports begin
ming to He Seen


NEW YORK, Sept. 26.-The Financier
SAYS this week: The easing in money
rates, which was a marked feature Of
the situation last week, is sufficiently
explained by the statement Of the clear
Ing house for the week ending Septem-
Der 2S The banks are at last begin
ming to reflect the influence of heavy
gold shipments, and this, too, in th,.
face OF an unusually heavy crop move
ment, which, without the Imports az
specie, would long ago have wlped ouf
the surplus reserve. AS the interior
movement is lessening domestic ex-
change at important centers having
fallen materially last week. the only
Inference is that the surplus reserve OF
the New York banks will continue 10
show large gains from now on. The
government will in few DAYS dis
burse large amount Of interest due
on its bonds. Nearly ten millions or
gold is still in transit and In addition
there will soon be. a return flow or
money to New York from interior
cities
This indicates a lower money mar
ket, and it is important as foreshadow-
ing an Interruption of gold imports:
but, on the >other hand, the loans of
the New York banks are now s6S. 900 600
lower than for the corresponding week
of last year, and the loans of all othec
banks have been contracted A re-
vival of business after election, there
fore, would require large amount OF
otherwise idle funds, and strengthen
the market materially.
Since July last the New York banks
have taken out over five millions OF
new circulation, which is doing good
service throughout the interior. but a
contraction will probably follow before
the first of the year. The present sur
plus is the highest reported since Aug
last. 1t is also higher than reported
in March. 1895, following a bond loan
when money rates were very much
lower.

In the Sensational Indictment
Against De Coursey at Buffalo.
Special to the Globe.
CHICAGO, Sept 26.-Samuel g. De
Ccursey, president Of the Western New
York and Pennsylvania railroad COM
pany, has just been indicted by the
federal grand jury sitting in Buffalo,
for criminal violation of the Interstate
commerce law. Baillhas been liked at
$4,000.
In April, 1893, M. w. pAcheson. circuit
Judge of the Uniteds States court for
the Western district, of Pennsylvania,
appointed DE courSey receiver Of the
Western, New York and Pennsylvania
railroad company. igPreyious to the APP
pointment, De Co4rse2 was president
of the railroad company of which he
was appointed receiver and also presi-
dent Of the Fairmounts Coal and Coke
Co. De Coursey the Buffalo grand fury
was shown, was therefore as deeply in
terested in the Fairmount Coal com
pany's business aSi in the railroad com
pany's. November, 1893, fourteen youch
ers, amounting In the aggregate to
$40, 451.71, were issued from the railroad
ccmpany's offices to the Paramount
Coal Co.. and this amount was paid to
the coal company Feb. 20, 1894. The
report Of the expenditure made by the
receiver to the court which appointed
him, was brief and to the point. 1t
was called LOSS"
1t Is said De Coursey may have also
to answer on a charge of perjury, as he
affirmed to the accounts filed by him in
court, which accounts showed pay
ments Of money for loss on coal'' to
the Paramount Coal and Coke com
pany. (The vouchers before the grand
jury showing they were made out to
that company Though some of them
were paid to c. N. Shipman & Co.,
River View Mining company, limited,
and Frank Williams & Co. The evil
dence before the grand jury was that
those payments were rebates. There
has been. it is claimed by persons
familiar with the proceedings of the
railroad company and certain coal COM
panies a ring which has accomplished
fine work" for some time 1t is stated
for instance, that when coal rates to
persons outside the ring were 81 a
ton, persons inside the charmed circle
paid the railroad companies but rs
cents per ton. All this may develop on
the trial of De Coursey and if it does
1t is promised the railroad world will
be startled.
