DILLON F0RCER IS
ON HIS WAY HERE
TAKES IN BUSINESS MEN OF THE
BEAVERHEAD TOWN WITH
BAD CHECKS.

Dillon, Sept. aI.--The merchants of this
city have been taken in by clever
forgery, in each case to the amount of
1880. Frank Williams and Trovolt &
Ripley are the sufferers. Two checks
for this amount were drawn upon the
First National bank of Dillon, alleged to
have been signed by Elijah Ames, a
prominent racher in the southern part of
the county, and were cashed without
question.
A Fan named "Jim Brown is the party
accused with having uttered the forgery.
Brown is we'll known here, having worked
in this section for some time and having
on previous occasions been found with
only good paper to be cashed. He has
been working all the summer for Mr..
Ames, cutting hay.
When the checks were deposited by the
above named business men this morning
the bank threw them out in both cases
as worthless forgeries. Brown meanwhile
had quietly left the city and is nowhere
to be found. He is believed to have left
for Butte and the officers there have been
instructed to keep sharp lookout for him.
He is tall, above the average, with a
very prominent nose, which is also
crooked When last seen he wore black
coat and vest and oyeralls.
