COUNTERFEIT CIGAR STAMPS
Cigars Made by the Lancaster, Pa, Firm
Seized in all Parts of the Country.
Belief That Only Stamps for so Cigars
Were COunterfeited-Detec
tiyes Commended.

Dispatches continued to reach the inter-
nal revenue bureau today of the seizure of
cigars in all portions of the country bear
ing the marks of having been made by the
Lancaster ctgarmakers engaged in the great
counterfeiting scheme. 1t is thought that
the total number of cigars seized will reach
100000, and the seizures have taken place
in nearly every large city in the country.
Owing to the fact that Jacobs & kendig
were making counterfeit stamps they could
afford to sell cigars at lower prices than
other manufacturers throughout the coun-
try, and this accounts for the enormous
business they had been doing.
Stamps for so Cigars COanterfeited.
Commissioner Wilson said today that he
had received a telegram from the collector
of internal revenue at Lancaster, saying
that the evidence so far showed that the
firm had counterfeited the stamps Tor nifty
cigars only-that Is, for boxes containing
fifty cigars. They had not attempted
to counterfeit the stamps for boxes OF
lesser or larger quantities. Should this
prove to be true, Mr.. Wilson said that he
would release all seized cigars put up in
boxes other than ffties. He will also re-
lease all seized cigars which bear genuine
stamps. This will be for the benefit of in
nocent dealers throughout the country, and
does not apply to the cigars seized at Lam
caster and belonging to the firm. About
100000 cigars of the firm were seized at
Lancaster. --
1t is thought today at the Treasury De-
partment that all the men arrested will
plead guilty. The cases against them are
too strong. 1t is stated that both Jacobs
and kendig will plead guilty and throw
themselves on the mercy of the courts.
Detectives Commended.
Detectives Burns and McManus, who
worked the first trace of the counterfeiters,
have had their salaries raised and have re-
ceived personal letters from Secretary Gage
complimenting them on the work they have
done. Detective McManus was the man
who was paid $1,000 by an attorney who
thought he could bribe the official. The
money is now in the treasury awaiting the
trial of the offenders, when it will be used
in evidence.

WORK WILL CONTINUE.
Result of Investigation Concerning
Alley Grade.


Mr.. Merritt L. Dawkins, residing at 1123
18th street northeast and others in that
neighborhood, recently filed a protest with
the District Commissioners against the
high grading of the alley in the rear of
property fronting on 18th street extended
north half of block /, Trinidad, and asked
that the work thereon be Immediately sus-
pended. They also requested that they he
granted hearing in the matter, for the
purpose of securing, if possible, some moGi-
fcauon of plan which, they asserted
promises not single benefit, but which
bids fair to work considerable unnec assary
hardship and pecuniary loss.
An investigation of the complaint by the
commissioners developed the fact that the
property of the protestants is considerably
below grade, and that in the construction
OF the alley the only alternative was either
the raising of the alley surface to the cs-
taDliShed grade, to which the protestants
objected, or the construction of a drop in
the alley, which, in this case it Is said
would be peculiarly objectionable. The
Wcrk of grading and paving this alley is
the result of a majority petition, and the
grade of the alley was established nearly a
year ago before the execution of the work.
and has been furnished other parties for
building purposes.
The protestants have been informed of
these findings, and the Commissioners will
therefore continue the work on the estab-
lished grade

Arguments in connection with the motion
for new trial and in arrest of Judgment
in the case of William K. Reed, recently

gan, were heard today by Justice Clabaugh
In Criminal Court No. 1. Attorneys Frisby
and Hughes appeared in behalf of Reed
Assistant District Attorney Shillngton rep
resenting the government Justice Cla.
baugh will announce his ruling later
The motions were based on the verdict OF
the jury, which found Reed guilty of mur.
der, but included recommendation to the
mercy of the court The defense maintains
that the jury did not intend that Reed
should be hanged.
The government takes the stand that the
recommendation of mercy was mere sur
plusage and Of no effect.

And at that moment We were sucked
