A BOSTON FRAUD
Of Such an Intricate Character As to
 Be Puzzle.

The Republican yesterday morning printed an Associated Press dispatch from Boston announcing the discovery there of project for flooding the west with bogus drafts on a Boston bank It was not explained in the dispatch how the fraud was to be made profit able or how the drafts were to be put in circulation. It was merely mentioned that they were sent out by various persons acting for ''The New England Directory company" a concern which. il has been ascertained, has no exist ence.
 One of these drafts is now in possess sion of Mir. w. C. Foster, clerk of the district court. About three weeks ago he received a letter From one c. A. Gather. claiming to be member Of the New England Directory company of Boston. There were inclosed in the letter certain blanks to be filled out with list of all the farmers of Maricopa county. Complete iIforma tion was also wanted regarding the stock growing and breeding industries of this county. In payment for the service requested by MT. Gather there was a s25 draft on a Boston bank, signed by MT. Gather. It was made payable to cash and was unindorsed. Neither the fetterhead on which this letter was written nor the envelope containing it was printed.
 Mir. Foster did not have time to col lect the information desired by MT. Gather. so he turned the request over 10 George Mauk. whose connection with the office of the county assessor afford ed him facilities for gathering the data wanted by the New England Directory company. MT. Mauk did not believe s25 was sufficient remuneration for the work proposed, and, then. he would not have cared to undertake it for a carload of s25 drafts like the one sent to MT. Foster He tried to enter into tle- raphic communication with MT. Gather to the end that they might come to a better understanding regarding the dissemination of information about Maricopa county among the New Englanders who were supposed to be | pe nting for it. Mir. Mauk wanted a ! bigger check and he wanted it fixed so | it would have commercial value. | His telegram was never delivered to Mir. Gather. The telegraph company sent back a service message saying that il could not find MT. Gather at the address given and that there was no New England Directory company in
 Boston.
 So just what MT. Gather intended to do Is not clear. The draft could have ! been cashed at any of the local banks | :f it were indorsed by Mir. Foster or any other sufficiently solid citizen. but
 that would not result in profit to Mir. Gather. The indorser would have had to pay the money back to the bank. but
 he would have had the use of it for
 about ten days. It would take a letter and reply that long to pass between ! this city and Boston.

TEMPE

The special meeting of the town coun- cil heli Monday evening was replete with warm discussions and arguments from its beginning to the close. The chandler contract for pumping water for the water works system was read and a motion made by Councilman Brown that it be accepted conditional to the approval of MT. Chandler's bond for Si.OOO. The new contract calls for pumping water into the reservoir or distribution system at the rate of 4 Certs per 1000 gallons.
 proposition was read from Gilbert, Wilkes x Co. through their agent, MT. Fuller This contract is drawn up for the purpose of covering the engineering of the entire water works plants, draw ing up plans. specifications, etc. It pur- ports that the above company shall as- suine the responsibility of putting in the entire system, furnishing a consult ing engineer at the time the bids are received and one to test the system after it's completion. the furnishing of complete plans and specifications. in C'udins the pumping plant ,etc. Gilbert. Wilkes X Co. also agree to assume the indebtedness already incurred by the town council for plans and specified tiCns of the reservoir and distribution system The town may also obtain from the above firm the services of a supervising engineer.
 Mayor Knight was strongly opposed to this contract and was about to again refer the matter to a committee. Coun- cil1an Brown stated that the council had been chaotic in their ideas long enough and that he for one wished to know where they were at and get the matter into the hands of competent and -t.r, derstood their business Carl Hayden defined his position. He, too, believed the time for action had arrived. He then seconded MT. Browns motion to the effect that the Gilbert, Wilkes & Co. proposition be accepted with a few minor changes, subject to the approval of the city attorney and acceptance by the firm MT. Fuller represents. The motion carried. Ayes-Brown. Hayden, Strong and Dimes. Nayes-Mayor Knight. The meeting then adjourned.

REMARKABLE CURE OF GROUP
A Little Boys Life Saved.

I have few words to say regarding Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It saw ed my little boys life and I feel that l cannot praise it enough. I bought a bottle of it from A. F. Steere of Good win. s. D., and when I got home with 1t the poor baby could hardly breathe. I gave the medicine as directed every ten minutes until he threw up and then I thought sure he was going to choke to death. We had to pull the phlegm out of his mouth in great long strings. I am positive that if had not got that bottle of cough medicine, my boy would not be on earth today.-Joel Demont. Inwood, Iowa.

TELLS OF SURRENDER.

Was@Given Up.

Admiral Dewey Describes How Manila
Was"Given Up.
Admiral Dewey has told to the Senate
committee on the Philippines his story
of the battle Of Manila Bay and the
events Immediately. following. He. says
he did certain things and did not do GER
tain other things. AS he remarked to
the committee, he was simply "a long
ways from home; there were no cables,
and l was meeting emergencies as they
arose." That he met these emergencies
is not doubted by the American people,
nor do they question his version of the
brief but brilliant bit of history of which
he directed the making.
What interests us more now is the adj
miraPs emphatic denial that he ever rec
ognized Aguinaldo's government, ever sa-
luted Aguinaldo's flag, ever called Agui-
naldo general or ever gave the Philip
pine republic the slightest recognition, for
he had no authority to do so and did not
consider it an organized government. Ma
Mia was surrendered to Dewey by the
SpaniardS under agreement and immedi-
ately following the defeat of the Spanish
feet. 1t, was not then occupied by the
Americans simply because Dewey had no
troops to garrison it.
Dewey says he knew nothing of the as
pirations of the Filipinos toward indepen-
dence until he received Aguinaldo's proc
lamation on July Is, a month and half
after the decisive battle of Manila Bay.
And Dewey thought SO little of this proc
lamation that he did not bother to cable
it to Washington, but left its transmits
sion to the mails.
In short, the admiral throughout his
recital declares that he gave Aguinaldo
and the Filipinos no reason to hope that
he approved of their efforts to found a
republic But he maintains his original
statement that he considers the islanders
more capable of self-government than the
Cubans

BAILEY ASSAULTS BEvERIDGE.
Texan Pounces on Indiana Man in the
Senate Chamber.


Senator Joseph W. Bailey Of Texas
treated the Senate to a pugilistic scene
just after adjournment Monday, when
he sprang upon Senator Beverage Of In
diana and choked him as he sat in his
chair in the chamber Had not several
Senators and attendants rushed to tae
aid of the Indiana man and pulled off Bal
ley the result might have been more seri-
Gus. A slight shaking and torn neck
tie were the only injuries sustained by
Mr.. Beveridge. In the scuft1e his desk,
which was screwed to the floor, was part
ly turned over by the onset of the massive
Texan.
The sensational attack by Bailey was
the result of remark made by Senator
Beveridge. The Texas statesman made
an attack on the officials Of the State De-
partment, saying they were either gross
ly incompetent or willfully negligent be-
cause they had not secured the release Of
citizen of Texas who is confined in a
Mexican prison and had failed to furnish
Senator Bailey with the papers relating
to the case.
Senator Beveridge defended the depart
ment and said the statements made by
Senator Bailey were "unwarranted." This
remark incensed the Texan, who, immedi-
ately after the session ended, walked to
where Senator Beveridge was sitting, and
demanded peremptorily that the indian"
