TWO CHECKS
New York Office Messenger
Disappears With $1O,O76.

NEW YORK, Oct. 15-Haskins &
Cells, certified public accountants, ask
ed the local police today to send out a
general alarm for Clarence S. Leonard,
eighteen years old, of East Orange, N.
j., messenger employed by the firm.
1t is alleged that Leonard forged two
checks, one for $500 and the other for
$2,576, using the firm name, on two
local banks, presented them at the
banks and collected the money. He is
said to have secured the money last
Tuesday at noon and to have disap-
peared Immediately afterward.
1t is also said that a young woman
living In East Orange disappeared at
the same time. Leonard had been at
tentive to her, and the supposition of
the bank officials and the police is that
they have eloped. Leonard comes
from prominent family of East
Orange and had the full confidence of
his employers.
The forgery is considered to be clever
work, and the bank officials say was
undoubtedly traced. The discovery was
made, however, in one of the banks al
most Immediately after the check had
been cashed there. The suspicion of
the cashier was aroused because Leon
ard, he said, seemed nervous and be-
cause the check called for $500,
larger amount than he had ever pre-
sented check for before. Haskins &
Cells were communicated with and a
member of the firm hurried to the
bank, examined the check and pro-
nounced it a forgery. Inquiry at an
other bank where the firm had an ac-
count disclosed the fact that Leonard
had cashed a check for $2,576 there
The police were informed and de-
tectives hurried to East Orange, but
found no trace of Leonard. When the
young man left home Tuesday morning
he told his parents he intended to stay
in New York that night.
~cription of Leonard has been
telegraphed to all the principal cities
of the country and all steamship lines
and railroads have been watched. A
detective agency~has also sent out
description of the young woman in the
case.

WAR OVER MONROE
DOCTRINE EXPECTED
General Staff of the United
States Army Prepares for
Battle.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct 15.-The
general staff of the army, whose duty
IL is TO prepare plans for war with
every possible antagonist, has conclud-
ed that the defense of the Monroe doc

than is generally expected, cause a
war between the United States and one
or more European powers. Germany
Is regarded as the country that is most
likely to cause trouble
When the war comes, the officers of
the general staff believe, many cam
paigns will be fought in South Amer
lea. In order that comprehensive plans
may be prepared in advance for the
struggle the military resources of the
South American republics are being
thoroughly studied.
An exhaustive study of Venezuela.
with short side trip to the isthmus
of Panama, has been completed by
Capt. Chauncey B. Humphrey, of the
Third infantry, and First Lieutenant
Ernest V. D. Murphy, of the Twenty
seventh infantry. They were sent to
Venezuela in June before the general
staff was formally organized. Their
assignment to this detail was one of
the first acts of the provisional general
staff and the promptness and secrecy
with which they were sent indicates
that some of the staff officers believe
that the possibility of war is not re-
mote.
To give them an official status these
two officers were appointed military
attaches at Caracas, but the appoint
ment was not announced, nor was the
state department informed of 1t.
The officers spent only enough time
In Caracas to disarm suspicion as to
their real purpose. Then they in

NEW YORK, Oct. 15.-United States
Senator Arthur P. German, of Mary

LEXINGTON JURY
AcQU|TS T|LLMAN
Slayer of Gonzales Is Found
Not Guilty of Murder
Charge.

LEXINGTON, S. C., Oct. 15-The
trial of James H. Tillman, who was
charged with the murder of N. G. Con
zales. editor of the State, in Columbia,
on Jan. Is last, ended today in an ac-
quittal.
The jury before which Tillman has
been on trial since Sept. % brought in
verdict of not guilty, thus ending a
judicial hearing which has engrossed
the attention Of the public of South
Carolina as none other has in the last
quarter of century. The jury was
out for twenty hours before arriving at
a verdict.
Never was case in South Carolina
courts more vigorously contested than
this. The solicitor was assisted in the
prosecution by four other lawyers,
while the accused was defended by
seven lawyers, an exceptional array Of
counsel. More than hundred wit.
nesses gave testimony, about as many
on one side as the other, and nine law
yers argued before the jury.
There was a general exodus today
from Lexington, the population of
which has been materially increased
during the trial. Practically everyone
attending had come from other parts
of the state. Mr.. Tillman left on an
afternoon train for his home in Edge
field, accompanied by his wife and
friends from his home county.
Not a sound had emanated from the
jury room when Judge Gary convened
court at $50 o'clock today to indicate
that an agreement had been reached.
Civil business was taken up, and more
than an hour elapsed before knock
was heard on the door leading into the
jury room. Judge Gary directed the
bailiff to ascertain If an agreement had
been reached and word came that the
jury had determined upon a verdict

DISCUSS OPEN SHOP
John Mitchell Denounces Pro-
fessiOnal Strike Breakers.

CHICAGO, Oct. 15.-Discussion of
the question of the open" shop by rep-
resentatives of labor and of capitaI
took up the greater part of the first
session today of the National Civic
Federation conference, which is en-
deavoring to establish more rightful
relations between employers and en-
ployes and to end strife, Various
phases of the matter of the freedom
or employment, which is now agitatfng
the industrial world, were presented bv
interested persons. The discussion will
pe continued tomorrow, when it will
become general.
During his talk on "open" shop to-
day, John Mitchell, president of the
United Mine Workers, strongly de-
nounced the nOn-unionist and the
strike breaker, whom he likened to a
criminal.
Henry c.. Hunter, of New York. It
was announced, would be among the
speakers on the open" shop tomorrow,
and Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor is ex-
pected to preside. Senator Hanna, it
was said, would be in charge of Sat-
urday's meeting.
Mr.. Mitchell, in opposing the "open"
shop, said:
by a refusal to work with nom
union men labor organizations occa-
sionally excite acute irritation among
employers and invite grave criticisms
from press and public.
ITO refuse to work with non-union
men is to no greater and to no less ex-
tent compulsion than for a life or fire
insurance company to refuse certain
classes of people, or for any associa-
ton whatsoever to set conditions un-
der which it will have dealings with
certain persons. The compulsion ex-
erted by unions, whether toward nom
unionists or employers, must be judg-
ed upon it's merits and must not be
decried merely because of it's compul-
sion.
"The majority of non-unionists are
not malicious; only at the worst, stu
pid and apathetic. However, there is
one group of non-unionists, the pro-
fessional strike breakers, but little re-
