Probably Used Acids.

A,barently the man who did the work,
whether the one who passed It or some
other, used acids of some sort and did
his work so cleanly and smoothly that
tho orders bore no appearance OF having
been tempered with. He showed his
Sharpness still further BY using orders
payable at other offices than this city,
one of them being payable In North
Carolina town. one OF the orders is said
10 have been issued originally for fifty
cents and then changed so as to read
"lifty dollars" instead. The amount OF
tho other order Is not known. In any
event. the orders when sent on for COL
lection proved 10 have been raised. and
then for the first time the merchants In
eterrsted learned that they had been clev-
crly swindcd
Az COON as the fraud became known,
the Federal officials and the police detec-
lives were notified and went to work to
try to apprehend the negro from the de-
scription given of him by the merchants
II Il, believed that the negro did not use
his real name. He is said to be tail,
black man, wearing suit OF blue over
nils a search was Instituted Tor me
man. but up 10 a late hour last night
the man had not been located.
The merchants will lose the amount OF
the purchases In both cases or at least
the value of the goods. Possibly inc ar
rest OF the negro might result IN Inc re-
covery OF the goods.
The crime is a very bold one, for sell
dom does any one dare TO tamper with
q postal money order. The danger OF
detection Is great, and the punishment Is
heavy and almost sure. In this case the
man may be held for forgery, uttering a
forgery. obtaining goods under false pre-
lenses and for violating the postal laws.
