BORROWED ON BOGUS NOTES.
ROTHSCHILDS PUT THEM UP AT
BANKS AS COLLATERAL.

Had His Employees Sign Many Notes
Before They Left His service-Firm
Failed When the Loans Came Due.
Central National Bank Had Him
Arrested in New YOrk-AmOunt
Said to Reach 100000.
New York, Dec 29.-David Rothsehilds
was arrested to-day on a warrant sworn
out at the instance of the Central National
Bank
According to the complaint, Rothschilds
was the head of the firm of r. Rothschilds
& Sons, which until recently conducted
large clothing business in Cleveland, o.
On May p 1897, Rothschilds visited the
Central National Bank and offered "a note
signed by the firm for $1,000. payable Sept.
u, of that year, for discount.
He made a statement that the firm had
liabilities of about $4,000, but possessed
assets of three times that sum. He also
gave the Bank as security about twenty
proplissory notes of customers in sums
ranging from 800 to $500, which the bank
says Rothschlds claimed were secured by
chattel mortgages. Their total was
IS, $50. Among others We're notes signed
by Harry Golden, John Emrick and w.
Lei. Emricks note was payable at the
Home National Bank of Chicago, as was
note purporting to be signed by Louis
Cook, the others at the office OF the firm
here.
When the $1,000 note became due in Sep
TENDER of last year, r. Rothschilds &, Sons
I assigned, but the Central Bank, with the
Sc, $50 of notes felt safe AS fast as the
notes became due, the firm sent them out
for collection, but the banks reported they
could not find the drawer of the paper
After search, however, Emrick finally
was located in the Chicago stock yards
where ne was employed as driver. he
stated that he had formerly worked for
the Rothschilds concern and that David
Rothschilds told him to sign his name to
about twenty notes. Just what they were
he said he did not know and he did not
care, as he knew, having no money, no
one could make him pay the notes.
Emrick also stated that the other men
employed by the firm were asked to do the
made about the same number as he did.
Later the Central National Bank located
Lei. VINO corroborated the statement made
by Emrick Other men employed by the
firm also made similar admissions.
With this information the bank laid the
| matter before the district attorney, and
the result was the issuance OF the war

raigned in court to-day Rothschi'ds de-

A Wholesale Massacre Is Proposed in
India.
From the Lahore Trlbune.

From the Lahore Tribune.
The monkey-slaughter question has, it
appears, assumed serious aspect just
now II has caused considerable excite
ment among orthodox Hindoos not only
in Orissa and Bengal but as far as the
news has Travelled. We seriously warn
the authorities against this iniudicious
proposal of the Puri city fathers, lest the
question should lead TO some serious con-
sequences The religious feelings of orth-
odox Hindoos, who form the majority In
India cannot be trihed with in this man
ner, and the lessons of the Benares riots
should not be thrown away. We are
against this slaughter more for the main
tenauce of peace and order than for any
thing else. The massacre of the qua
drumana itself is far uglier nuisance
than all the mischief committed by mon
keys put together. 1t may lie, however,
that these so-called ancestors of humanity
are giving a good deal of trouble at Puri;
but where do they not? Most OF the
principal seats of Hindoo pilgrimage are
literally colonized by these restless brutes,
but are they not tolerated from time AM
memorial and has there ever been such
crusade against them? II it Is so diff
cult TO put up with them any longer at
Puri cannot they be banished from the
town rather than killed?
There are villages in Bengal where these
wicked creatures sometimes do considera-
bic harm 10 villagers, VINO, by the way,
instead of having them swept out of eX-
istence, catch the leader Of the party, with
a process known TO every child in Bengal,
and, painting his face hideously, hold a
mirror before his eyes-the village chaps
making a soaring noise with accompani-
ments Of dhols and cymbals-with the re-
suit that followed precipitately by the
whole party, the heroic captain beats a
hasty retreat, never to return 10 the vii
lage again in his life. II would be far bet
ter 10 have these mischief makers deport-
ed 20 some distant parts than endanger-
ing public peace by shocking the religious
feelings Of the pilgrims by such an, in
their view iuhuman action. As many as
fifteen out of the tWenty-one Pundits
consulted at Puri are averse to slaughter,
and the remaining six dwindle down TO a
microscopic minority against the mass of
Pundit opinion supporting orthodoxy IN
all the English and Vernacular newspa-
pers in Bengal, Behar and Orissa are
strongly protesting. As to the Purt COM

Rut 1t Eventually Brought India
Under EngIand's Control.
From Pearsons Weekly.
How many of our readers are aware
that we owe our vast Indian empire to a
variation Of three shillings a pound in the
price of pepper? And yet such is the
case. and it throws all interesting light
upon the idiosyncrasies of the English
character.
In the sixteenth century all the pepper
consumed in England was bought by the
E,nplish merchants from the Dutch, who
brought it from India. Owing to racial
jealousy. the Dutch traders in 1899 raised
the cost from three shi.lings TO six shll-
rngs per pound. This petty display of ILL
feeling caused considerable annoyance to
the English merchants, and aroused in
Them that feeling of independence which
has always been so characteristic of our
race.

for this purpose formed a company, called

eventually known as the East India Com.
pany.
Their first voyages embroied them in
almost innumerabe quarrels with the
Dutch and Portuguese, and for a time the
venture proved a financial failure 1t was
not. until 1915 that the company became
successful and obtained lucrative treaties,
owing TO their deeisively defeating the
Portuguese.
From this time on their possessions
gradually increased. slowly at first. and
then very rapidly, until, by the wise and
beneficial management OF such men as
Give. Warren Hastings and Corvallis
they exercised sovereignty over the greater
portion of India.
In this manner il happened that an in
crease in the price Of pepper momentous-
Nv affected the history of mankind.
