HAD SEVERAL DRINKS
In A TRENTON SALOON
Woke Up in Philadelphia and
Took Some More.
Harvey Then Found Himself IN Bowie,
Nd, Minus His Money, and Walked
to Washington.

A fairly well dressed young man, giving
the name of Charles H. Harvey. and who
said he lived at EwiugsviIle. n. J., which
is about four miles from Trenton, ar
rived in Washington this morning with a
tale Of mystery.
Harvey said he was employed as a Ia
borer on the farm Of William B. Evans,
EwingsviIle, and that last Wednesday he
went to Trenton with a load Of potatoes
for the market While there he dropped
into one Of the saloons where he became
acquainted with two well-dressed white
men
Numerous rounds of drinks were or
dered. so Harvey stated. and the next
thing he knew he woke up in Philadel-
phia- His two companions we're still
with him. however. and more drinks We're
purchased.
Then again, Harvey claims, he lost cou-
seriousness and when he came to his
senses yesterday he found himself lying
in a freight ear at Bowie Md
Upon searching his trOuser pockets
Harvey said ne discovered that the SIS
which he had been paid for the potatoes.
and which he should have turned over TO
his employer. was missing There was
nothing lett for him 70 do then but to
walk to Washington. which he did, ar
irving in this city this morning
He went at once to Police Headquarters
and was granted an interview with Cap
tain Boardman 70 whom he recited his
| troubles. The matter. which worried the
I Jerseyite most of all was the fear that his
employer might suspect that he had alb
seconded with the SIS and had notified the
police to arrest him.
Captain Boardman quoted his fears and
| sent him to the Sixth precinct station.
I where he was placed in one Of he wit
ness rooms. AS he had not eaten for
more than twenty-four hours a substan-
/ tiaI breakfast was given him
/ Captain Boardman at once wired the
I chief Of police at Trenton, n Land ask
| ed him to ascertain II the young man S
story was true. and il so to send trans
! portation 70 this city in order that he
might return to his New Jersey home.

Since the charges against Ambassador

satiOns have been filed at the State De-
partment against J. BieIenberg, the United
States Deputy Vice Consul at Matamoras.
State Of TamauIipas, Mexico. Dr. s. W.

Several Senator's and Representatives
have interested themselves in Dr. Scott's
behalf and Thorough Investigation OF the
matter is being made by the authorities
at the State Department.
The State Department is already rigidly
investigating the charges laid at the door
Of Ambassador Clayton and his subOrdi
mates in Mexico. This in spite OF the
fact that the Ambassador is here consid-
cred one Of the most efficient members Of
the diplomatic service Should anything
be found against kim he viii have TO saf-

ment has a firm belief that nothing detri-
mental to his record win be developed.
It is admitted that it is possible that he

Moreover. it is stated by a very high
authority in the state Department that
absolutely no blame can attach to Am

every move he made thu In was upon
specific instruction from Ire department
and hence II there is to be criticism Of the
results that criticism must fall upon the
