Man Arrested In New York Probab]


Man Arrested In New York Probably
an Ex-Governor.
The man who represented himself as Dr.
William A. Ferguson of Galveston, Texas,
and who was recently arrested In New York
on a charge of swindling. was arraigned
yesterday before United States Commits
sioner Shields in that city. DR.. A. r. Stands
Of this city was present as the prosecuting
witness, and with him was Detective Nc
Nance Commissioner Shields fixed bond
in the case at $1,000 and committed the
prisoner for hearing next Thursday.
DIR. Stands identified the prisoner as the
man who obtained 81 from him here rep
resenting himself as Dr. Porcher of Charles
ton, S. c. 1t is alleged that the man arrest
ed has been obtaining money from New
York physicians by representing that he
lest everything in Galveston during the
recent flood He claimed he was a native
of Scotland, and said he wanted money
enough to pay his way to Glasgow.
AT the hearing next week every effort
will be made to have the prisoner held for
the local authorities.
DR.. Stands and Detective McNamee re-
turned home from New York this morning
Detective McNamee says the New York Of
ficers are satisfied that the man under ar
rest Is F. ]. Moses, the former governor
of South Carolina. In the book of profess
sional criminals, printed by Inspector
Byrnes, formerly Of the New York police
department., 1t Is stated that Franklin J.
Moses was forty-four years old in 1856. AT
that time he was of slim build and weighed
100 pounds. He has blue eyes, sallow COM
plexion and large Roman nose. He wore a
mustache that was gray, dressed fairly well
and was said to have been good talker.
According to the information given in the
book he graduated from Columbia College
and served as private secretary to the gov
ernor of South Carolina for two years.
At the close of the war % the rebellion
he was among the first to submit to the re-
construction act, and after serving as
speaker of the house for two years he was
elected governor of the state, which posi-
ton he held for two years Soon after y
term of office expired, according to Inspec-
tor Byrnes, Moses began victimiZng friends
and foes alike. and he soon found himself
in the hands of the authorities June 3,
1887, he was pardoned by Governor Ames of
Massachusetts,. because of ill-health, and 1t
was believed that he would live but short
time. 1t was afterward stated that he mad
made his home in Massachusetts town
and had been elected a selectman.

CRoKER's TAXES IN ENGLAND.
He Must Help Pay to Carry on Roe,
War.

He Must Help Pay to Carry on Boer
War.
A special dispatch to the World from
London says: Richard Croker finds the
English income tax assessor a thorn in his
side. No sooner had he arrived at his CONN.,
try home in England for complete rest and
quiet than notice was served on him thai
he had been assessed for an income tax at
100000 income
This is the high rate levied in England
on account of the Boer, war; The tax is
levied on temporary residents as well as
citizens
Croker was furious. He consulted some
local people as to what he should do. He
was advised to appeal against the assess
ment for at the present rate It meant the
payment. of IS, 900.
Accordingly Croker Went to Vantage
specially on Wednesday to appear person.
ally before the local committee. The pro-
ceedings were strictly private, but lasted
an unusually long time. Croker looked
horribly worried when he came out,
These assessors are always particularly
inexorable when they, get hold of rich
allen Croker's fortune Is now a matter
of notoriety here. and the reports are fully
sustained by the scale on which he carries
on his racing stable. So
His opinions on the South African war,
which are well known, probably afforded
the assessors additional qualification in
making him pay his full share of the cost
of 1t.
Croker returned to London again on We'd
nesday night. He Is making ARRANGEMENTS
for an early visit to Carlsbad to undergo a
me nth's cure, though that is a rather risky
experience in winter. However. his health
is bad and the terribly wet weather here
Is telling on him.

Mr.. Ray n. RiOrdan Relinquishes Dr.
rectiOn of Greenleaf School.
Mr. Ray r. Riordan has resigned the
principal of Greenleaf School, which he has
conducted with such signal ability for the
last two terms, but will continue to teach
a class there. Much regret by parents of
pupils and school authorities was expressed
when Mr.. Riordan made known his inten-
ton to relinquish the principalship, but his
decision could not be changed He is one
of the youngest as well as one of the most
noted of public school teachers. AS prin-
cipal Of the Mccormick School in 1898 he
eliminated his years work by inaugurating
the Vacation School, which was very sue
cessful as an experiment, and last year,
having been transferred to Greenleaf as
principal, he conducted the summer school
there during vacation to such good purpose
that the board of education in the esti-
mates for next year included the Vacation
School for substantial support along with
the other established branches of the sys-
tenn.

charge Of public buildings and grounds, has
been advised Of the arrival at New York
Of the statue of Gen. John A. Logan, which
Is to be erected in Iowa Circle This statue
was constructed by Mr. Franklin Simmons.
the eminent American sculptor, in his stu
do at Rome, Italy. The statue was trans
ported from Rome to New York on the
steamship Tartar Prince. A handsome
pedestal has been prepared for 1t in Iowa
Circle and everything at this end of the
line is in readiness for placing the statue
in position. Under the terms of the con-
tract with Mr.. Simmons this should be done
on or before the 4th instant, but nasmuch
as that seems to be impracticable by reason
Of the delay in the arrival of the statue it
is more than likely that the time will be
extended No arrangements have yet been
made for the unwilling ceremonies and it
will be impossible to do anything in that re-
spect until after the statue arrives in this
city. which will probab bly, be in few days.
