CHARGED WITH FORGERY.
Herman j. Martin Brought to Wash
ingtOn From Philadelphia.

Herman ]. Martin, who was brought to
Washington yesterday from Philadelphia
to answer to charge of forgery in con-
nection with the cashing OF certain pension
certificates, was late during the afternoon
released on 81, 900 bail to await the action
of the grand jury for the District
Martins surety was Charlotte ID. Oehm.
of Anacostia, who, it was stated, is an aunt
of the accused Until the very last moment
there was doubt in the mind of the surety
as to whether or not she would qualify on
the bond. When Mrs. Oehm was called
upon to take the oath OF qualification, she
hesitated. and in low voice said: Il don't
know if l can" Some one said she could,
and she seemed to be satisfied and took the
oath. Before doing so she half turned TO
Martin, who was standing near her, and,
looking at him appealingly said: Prom
Use me that you viii never touch drop.
Martin answered that he would and the
oath was administered to the surety.
Martin Is charged with forging the name
of ]. W. Morris the payee. on a certain
pension certificate issued by G. a. Orr,
United States Pension Agent at Buffalo,
n. Y. 1t is said there are others who were

sion certificates with Martin, and it is ex-
pected that several other arrests will be
made within the next few days.
Charles Greer. twenty-five years old.
was also arrested yesterday afternoon by
Deputy United States Marshal p. E. Cusick
on warrant sworn out by Albert w.
Roome. special examiner in the Pension
office, likewise charging him with forging
pension checks. He will be given Il hear
ing by United States Commissioner Mon
day morning.
Greer is the man whom Martin claims
was the principal in the extensive pension
check forgeries which both men are alleged
to have carried on. Martin, when arrested.
made an accusation against Greer. but the
man succeeded in evading arrest until yes
terday Greer was formerly employed in
the postoffice.
The checks alleged to have been forged
by the men were mailed from the Pension
Office to John W. Morris, an attorney, at
GA F. Street. How the men obtained
possession of the checks is matter which
still puzzles the authorities.
