New York. Nov. 9.-The attempt at sui
eide of May Vintage. a miss of seven
teen years, in a furnished room in Brook
lyn, followed by the arrest of her lover.
Edward Valentine, has brought to light
the operations of gang of swindlers
who have been working III this city. The
girl made an attempt upon her life after
a warrant had been issued charging her
with having passed q worthless check
upon Brooklyn dry goods merchant. AZ
ter she had partially recovered, she told
the authorities that the check had been
given her by Valentine. He was arrested
and is now In Jail.
Valentine In the hope Of saving himself.
has made confession In which he tells
In detail the operations OF the gang. The
most prominent members were Big Ed
Rice. III. X. White. Isaac Heidenheimer,
Rolingate Smith. Walter b. Peters, Willis
Connors and William Thomas. The latter
Is locked up In this city. Connors IN Flint.
Mich, and Peters in Chicago.
The swindlers saw last summer that In
consequence of the tight money market
forged papers could be easily hoated, pro-
viding the names of those on the paper
had q rating with the commercial agen-
cies. At this stage of the proceedings.
Charles III. Abbott. who had operated
with the gang In other fields. appeared
with . bright idea. He was the junior
member OF the frm of John H. Baker &
Company. forwarding agents. BY some
means the Arm had secured . high rat
ing. Upon the strength Of this rating.
Abbott set to work and made out the
firms notes for probably $250.O0 These
notes were given to the members of the
gang with instructions to negotiate them
outside the city.
At least $4,000 Of the notes were sold in
Philadelphia. Other notes were disposed
OF In Chicago and other PARKWAY cities.
Valentine and Mclaughlin made so much
money last summer that they leased cot
tages at Long Branch and lived like mil
honaires. They drove fast horses, and
Valentine even went TO the extent OF leas-
ing steam yacht. May Vintage was his
companion.
Emboldened 10y their success. the gang
became reckless. They set to work to
pass small forged checks IN this city and
Brooklyn, and this proved their downfall.
Abbott has ruined the firm of J. II. Baker
& Co. Mr.. Baker Is man well advanced
In years. who trusted Abbott entirely. Abb
bolt has disappeared.
turers and farmers have lost $685.. 900 by
the operations Of this gang. They are said
TO have been the promoters OF two or three
fictitious companies. one called the Stand
ard Coal and OIL Company, and also OF
banking concern which they used as a
decoy. It is said the gang bought on
notes and then SOLD for cash. sacrificing
the material chey had secured for any
thing they could get for II. favortte
scheme was TO get possession OF bicyclex
from manufacturers and Jobbers, and then
to rattle the wheels or sell them at a great
sacrifice.

STOCKINGS YIELD UP GOLD.
So Much Metal I'm sight That hanks
Will Resume Payments OF
Specie-Money II Easy.

New York. Nov. s.-The banks are con-
tempIaung the resumption of specie pay
ments suspended In February. 1882, by tile
refusal to supply gold for export and for
the payment Of government dues. That
action threw the burden of supplying gold
upon the treasury. and eventually forced
the issue Of bonds by the government,
which aroused so much complaint
Since the election metal has been COM
ing into the banks IN such floods that they
see the way clear to what can be termed
q resumption Of specie payments. BY this
action Of the banks. gold will be put dnto
circulation. and no reason whatever will
exist for boarding 1t. They will also re-
sumo the task OF supplying gold for ex-
port, and thus relieve the treasury OF
great strain.
Gold No Longer In Hiding.
Washington City, Nov. 9.-The treasury
today los, 81 900 in gold coin and SCI 20
in bars, which leaves the true amount Of
the reserve $l21 ,S2G 364. The net gain in
gold today at New York and San Fran
cisco was $i.0S4. 100.
The resources Of the treasury are being
severely taxed to meet the demand for
paper notes OF all denominations in ex-
change for gold. In many cases the gold
holders ask for United States notes of
large denominations In exchange. The
latter are as valuable for reserve as Ii tho
gold. but they express willingness TO
accept Sherman notes, or II necessary sill
Yer certificates, II the government Is una
BILE to furnish United States notes. The
demand for large denominations Is not i'm
perative. the principal thing being to get
a paper money.
Reports from all parts of the country
tend TO show that nearly all of the gold
withdrawn during the last seven weeks
was for the purpose OF boarding, and now
that the supposed danger Is past. the gold
II being offered At the several sub-treas-
uries, is being deposited In banks and so
Is finding iis way into the government
Golfers.
The rush OF gold offers Is 30 great that
In New York AT least the assistant treas
urer has been compelled to refuse gold
until such time a. he was able to handle
Il and In q number Of instances currency
has been shipped from one sub-treasury
20 another to meet the usual demands.
The reserve today passed the $i20.o0 900
point, and the officials have no doubt that
It will reach q much higher figure before
the close OF the year. The Increase In
business generally predicted. 1t is believed
viii result In greatly Increased receipts
from customs and internal revenue. so
that the present treasury deficit Is likely
to be reduced TO some extent before the
Inauguration of Mr.. Mckinley.
New York Bonds Overbid.
New York. Nov. Bids on SIG. 900 600
So per cent. gold bonds Of the city of New
York were opened today In the comptrol-
er's Office. IL II understood tat the
amount was largely overbid. There were
ls5 proposals received. all from leading
bankers. representing . premium ranging
from TO per cent.
