CAGES SPLAN N0TAGOOD One
Mr.. Chandler Tells the President
How Republicans Regard 1t.
He Receives Assurance That the
International Bimetallism
SchemeseIs tStiIl On.

The President and Senator Chandler
had talk yesterday on the difficult
ties which are besetting the Republic
an party by reason of it's stand on the
financial question. The Senator is said
to have informed the President frankly
| that Mr.. Cages plan is not regarded
as a good thing by the rank and file
of the Republican party.
The Presidents views, as obtained af-
ter the interview, are to the effect
that he is still standing on the plank
of the Republican party which pledges
ii to bimetallism. The President Lad
no suggestions to make to relieve the
present situation. but said that the
work of securing international bimetal,
lism would be continued. He proposes,
he said, to continue the efforts for this
conSumma ton abroad at convenient
season. After the Interview Senator
Chandler expressed himself as con-
vinced that the President was in favor
OF both metals as standard money.
This new interest in the matter OF
money is said to have been inspired by
the speech of Hon. w. j. Bryan on
Saturday night at Chicago.
James O'Connell, president of the In
ternatiOnal Association of Machinists,
and others called on the President to
protest against the arbitrary scaling
down of wages of employees at the Rock
Island arsenal. The special point made
was the inequality Of the cut and the
very low figure at which the wages
have been placed. The President said
he would have the complaint fnvesti-
gated by the War Department.

CHECK FORGERY CHARGES
Well-KnOWn Wall Street Man Ac-
cnsed of Serious OfenSeS.
BROKER GOERDES ARRESTED
He Is Allies ed to Have Passed a
House-Passed 1t 10 Buy One Hun
dred Shares of Consolidated Gas
Certificate Not Dated.

New York, Jan. 10.-W. F. Goerdes, q
member of the Consolidated Exchange
was arrested this afternoon on q
charge of forging a check for $l8,112.50
drawn on the North Side Bank, OF
Brooklyn.
Goerdes, who is well known in Wal
street went into Zimmerman & For
sbay's banking house last Wednesday
and arranged to buy $4,000 worth OF
Spanish coin today.
He called at the Office of William
Hawley & Co, en- Saturday. and told
them that he wished to buy 100 shares
of Consolidated Gas at 1917. He told
them that he would pay for it today.
Goerdes returned to Hawley q Co. s Of
flee this morning and offered check
drawn on the North Side Bank, OF
Brooklyn, for S18, 1880.
1t was signed by j. l.. Rives and was
rsed by Goerdes himself. The
clerk told Goerdes that he could not ac-
cept the check unless it was certified.
Goerdes appeared at the Consolidated
Exchange at noon with check certi-
fed and asked Hawley & Co.'S repre-
sentative on the floor TO deliver him
the stock Thinking the check TO be
correct, the 100 shares OF stock were
turned over TO Goerdes without ques-
ton.
AS soon as the cheek was returned
to the brokers' Office, however. MI.
Hawley noticed that the certification
bore no date. That aroused his suspi-
cions, and he called up the Brooklyn
bank He learned that no man of the
name of Rives had an account there,
and that the bank knew nothing about
the check in question.
Hawley then started 20 look up Goer-
des He learned that as soon as he
had obtained the stock on the worth-
less check he had gone to another
broker. L. p Mendham, and had bor-
rowed $4,000 on the stock. The $4,000
was paid to Goerdes in the form OF a
check, which GoeIdes at once had GER
titled Provided with this. he went to
Zimmerman & FOrshay's office, saying
when he left the certified check ther"
that he would call for the Spa aish
money he had ordered about 3 O'Clock.
shortly afterward Zimmerman & For
shay received word of the passing of
the worthless check by Goerdes, and
when he returned to the office at
O'Clock Detective Phil Riley was wait
ing for him and at once placed him
under arrest He was taken to police
headquarters.
