A FAMOUS PENSION SHARK
MeClay Sont to the Penitentiary For
Six Years.

CHARLESTON, April 8. George p.
McClay, who was convicted here for
general pension frauds and who was
sentenced to serve six years, is consid-
cred ono of the shrewdest pension sharks
that ever operated in South Carolina.
The pension bureau gave out 12l differ
ent cases against McClay, and of this
number 81 have already been examined.
In the o. cases the government claims
that forgery and perjury was shown i'll
43, and some of the more important
charges have not yet been reached. Nc
Clay was tried in the United States cir.
cult court on four indictments consoli.
dated into one, and verdict of guilty
was returned in each of the four.
The operations OF the pension attor-
ney were not confined TO Charleston
county, but he found al easy field in
Beaufort and elsewhere. In the case
tried here the government put up teSti.
mony to prove that the prisoner had
been making a pension claim for ne
gro who was entirely myth and it was
alleged that the mans purpose was to
secure this money for his personal use.
His wonderful memory is such that he
can remember every single paper sent
to the pension department. and his Won
derful intellect has been the marvel of
the court.
While i'll Jail awaiting trial, McClay
sent letter addressed to President Nc
kinley and cabinet, in which he pre-.
ferred charges against every federal off.
Ger in Charleston. The charges, of
course, were groundless.
1t is believed by the government that
with the conviction of McClay one of
the most dangerous pension sharks has
been moved from the active field. His
work extended over q period of many
years and it has been impossible thus
far to estimate the amount secured by
him on pension claims
