which they made their escape from the
building through a small aperteur over
the main door.
Sheriff Irwin and his deputy, Mr.. j. r.
McCreary, at once began search for
the escaped prisoners, but up to the time
of going to press no trace of them had
been found Sheriff Irwin has offered
reward of $500 for their apprehension and

For Three Years Bell Con-
y. tinued SWindling.
AFRO frn M -
Found Many Dupes to Credit
a Transparent Story.
That He Was Agent of AdmInlstra-
tion--Finally Arrested.

KANSAS Cry, Mo-, June pa dispatch
announces the arrest at Neosho, Mo-,
by Deputy Unites States Marshal Pear
man, OF a swindler who has eluded the
agents OF the treasury department for
three years. The chief operator, who is
known as J. X. Bell, alias James r.
Swarts. is In jail In Springfield. Along
with him are NJ. A. Maginis and Thomas
Robbins, heretofore respected citizens of
Mosha, who are said TO have become his
dupes. Bell claimed to be a secret agent
OF President Cleveland's admin istration
end carried an alleged commission bear
Ing O forged signature of w. q. Gresham,
secretary OF State, and dated Aug. 13,
1894.
The pretended mission OF the swindler
was to distribute campaign funds for the
national administration and he ciaimed
TO be able 10 give out TO the favored ones
greenbacks that had been presented to
the government for redemption and can
celled. He claimed that instead OF de-
stroying these bills the administration
stored them in the treasury vaults to be
distributed by him for campaigen pur-
poses.
From each OF his dupes the swindler
extracted an initiation fee OF $3.50, aud he
represented TO them that the number Of
citizens admitted to the brotherhood was
80 regulated that each member would be
given $3.50 annually 10 distribute.
Notwithstanding that the scheme was
clearly fraudulent the authorities have
evidence that the swindier has been ex-
tensively working in Texas, Kansas,
Central Missouri and Tennessee.
The swindler was greatly assisted In
convincing his dupes ny an accomplice
IN Washington, from whom ne received
daily mail, including treasury reports and
statements that were apparently sent to
him in franked envelopes. These were
exhibited as an evidence of his authority.

silverite Senators In national politics
after March 4, 1897 There are no new
States TO be admitted before March 4. and
no present indication that any hard
money, gold-standard, honest-credit Sen
ator, Democrat or Republican, will be
succeeded by silverite, with the pos
sible exception OF General Palmer OF
illinois. On the other hand, there will be
q gain from the silver camp of probably
i've or six Senators, and, from present ap-
pearances, a working majority of about
four against silver in the next Senate,
reversing the present condition. These
calculations do not take into account.the
State Of Delaware, now represented by
but one Senator, where the siIverites have
no foothold. The Populist vote in Della
ware in 1892 was 13.
The next United States Senate will have
a Republican majority without the aid Of
Populists, who now hold the balance OF
power in the upper House of Congress-
