CLERK JONES ARRESTED.
He Is Charged with Counterfeiting
Money Orders.

Chief HaZen, of the secret service, has
| unearthed fraud on the Postoffice and
Treasury Departments by which it is be-
lieved the Government has been swim
died out of several thousand dollars. The
extent Of the loss is not fully known. and
the officials themselves acknowledge that
they have not yet completed the investi-
cation.
So far there has been but one arrest.
but il would not be surprising if more
should follow. Yesterday morning when
the investigation started before Secre-
tary of the Treasury Lyman J. Gage it
was believed that at least four arrests
would result. For some weeks Chief Ha-
zen has been on a still hunt for the per
sons responsible for the numerous fraud
ulent money orders which have flooded
the Treasury Department, coming
through the office of the Auditor for the
Postofiice Department
The investigation developed something
Interesting yesterday. and Secretary
Gage took a hand in the matter. Clerks
We're summoned before him ard ques-
toned. There was a full inquiry.
Early in the morning Commissioner
Mills was summoned TO the department
and ushered into Secretary Cages Of
lice. He was requested to furnish HIM
self with at least four warrants and four
blank rccognizance papers. He did so.
He was then informed that the oftensc
believed to have been committed was
a violation of the statute providing
against the forging of United States
money orders.
IT was his duty to await developments
of the Investigation and be prepared to
Issue the warrants at n moments no
tice. Meanwhile Marshal Aulck Palmer
WAS apprised Of the proceedings and re-
quested 10 have deputy marshal pres
ent. Deputy William Wilkerson was sent
to the Treasury He waited all day FOR
something To do but it was not until
some time after the Treasury had closed
that he was summoned into the Secr"-
tary's Office and called upon to take
charge of a prisoner
District Attorney Henry =. Davis also
put i'm an appearance and short while
after o'clock a warrant was made out
charging James W. Jones. a clerk in the
office of the Auditor for the Postoftice
Department. with having issued forged
money orders. Then the deputy mar
shal was summoned and Jones placed in
his custody The officials announced
that all information could he obtained
from the warrant in the possession of
the deputy who had taken his prisoner Ia
the First precinct station.
Beyond this they refused To give any
information as to the alleged offense.
They stated. however. that the amount
involved SC far is not great, and eX
planned that Jones could secure his re-
lease by furnishing bond of
Sl.eeo. Jones does not live in
Washington. his residence being in Nir-
ginia. near Fails Church.
