BIG swlNDLE ALLEGED.
We'll Known Stock Brokers Are Ar
rested in Chicago for Fraudu-
lent Use of Mails.

Chicago, Jan. Frank jaeger and JOIN.
JAEGER, well known throughout the United
States as mining stock brokers and pro-
meters, were arrested on the complaint OF
Postoffice Inspector VIM. ketcham on the
charge of using the mails in a scheme to
defraud.
The arrests were ordered by the govern
ment officials after an inquiry had been
made into the business methods of the
Model Gold Mining company and the JAEGER
Oil company, of which concerns Frank
JAEGER is president and treasurer and John
jaeger secretary. Upwards of sS0O,0O0 is in
volved in the case and the federal author
tiles declare hat sensational revelations
will be made when the prisoners are ar
raigned in court
The brothers were taken before United
states Commissioner Foote. where their
bonds were fixed at $1,000 each and they
were released on bail until January Is. =
According to the federal officers the fol-
lowing mines and oil wells are included in
the list of those fraudulently misrepre-
sented in advertising matter sent through.
the mails: McCabe, Model, Wolf Tone,
American Gold and Copper. Jessie Helen

Inspector Ketcham said that he did not
make the claim that the properties are of
no value, but that the representations as
to the earnings of the companies are
Fraudulent. The inspector said:
nThese men nave been using the mails,
to make representations about all the
properties. The only one of which our
Investigation showed which had made
money was the McCabe mine, near Pres
colt, Ar.z. The government claims that
the resources and profits have been ficti-
tiously Increased and that the general eX-
pense account, which should have been
charged against profits. has been errone-
ously set forth In alluring advertising
matter sent through the mails for the
purpose of making a good showing for
the company.
President Frank jaeger said:
1.-THE arrest of myself and my brother
is purely spite work. A couple of dissat-
isfied stockholders wished to disrupt the.
company. We have made no misrepre-
sensations and we will bring heavy dam
ages against somebody"

Mining company lists the officers and d.

AFTER DISPUTED ESTATE.
Lake City Man Claim. to Be a Brother
Of a Deceased California Man.

of a Deceased California Man.
Lake City, Ia. Jan. 5.-Moses Sher-
mar will soon leave for Los Angeles,
Cal, called there to prosecute his
claims on a certain estate left by. an
alleged brother Of Mr.. Sherman's. A
few years g a man by the name OF
Charles Hill. a pioneer in California,
died, as was supposed. comparatively
poor. But later investigation developed
the fact that he had property to the
value OF $4,000. Almost Immediately
several claimants came forward and
urged their respective rights to the
coveted property. At present there are
three principal ones, Moses Sherman,
Mrs. Marietta Varney, who claims to lie
a daughter OF Hills, and Salem
Charles, a New York lawyer. Little
was known In Los Angeles OF the ante
cedents of Hill, but Sherman claims
that he was his brother, who took his
flight from h old home in Cayuga
county. N. Y, because he was wanted
by the United States treasury detect
ives for counterfeiting. It seems that
Hill, whose real name 1t Is claimed,
vas Lorenzo Dow Sherman, bore a
shady reputation in this regard and
concluded that he would disappear be-
fore the officers could capture him. He
abandoned a wife and the daughter
who is now claiming a share of the
estate. Moses states that the evening
previous to his brothers departure he
told him that he would change his name
to Charles Hill when he reached his
destination. On this and the identif1-
cation of certain marks on the body of
the brother and certain photographs in
his possession Mr.. Sherman bases his
claim. The alleged daughter is assist
ing Sherman in his case and opposing
Salem Charles. 1t is known that Hill
was a member of the notorious briggs
gang of counterfeiters which operated
for a number Of years, but which was
broken up nea Dayton, o. The hear
ing of the cases is called for January
9 at Los Angeles.

FURTHER INQUIRY.
Department of Commerce Asked to.
Make Investigation.

Chicago, Jan. 1.-THE Illinois Manu-
facturers' association, at a meeting
held here, decided to ask the depart
ment of commerce at Washington to.
make an investigation into the loss of
life and property by fire in the United
States and to recommend to congress
what measures should be carried out
by the national government in this con-
nection. Should the department. com
ply with the request, which would
necessitate the collection of complete
statistics. it is believed the result Will
be the reorganization of the insurance
business of this country as well as the
establishment of rules that will pre-
vent disasters such as the Iroquois the
