LAWSON ACCUSES ROGERS.
Says Public Bought Tzco-thirds of
AmaIgamated and Got One.

The fotation of the Arnalgamated Copper Com
pany is described in great detail by Thomas W
Lawson in his instalment of THE Crime OF Anal
aamated" in the June 'Everybody's Magazine
He makes direct charges of fraud against II H
Rogers and the National City Bank. After telling
Of the rush OF the public to subscribe for Amalga-
mated stock, he quotes Mr.. Rogers as saying 10
him:
Lawson Stlllmans tally is so far completed that
that the subscription runs between s4OoGo0O00
$40 900 OD0 from spectators $62 900 as
deIeGve, ana areer shTstng 9u5 $SGWOo more
be allotted Is to 20 per cent Of his subscription
cali Il IS per cent
Commenting these instructions Mr.. Lawson
says. in part:
To effect this they DECIDED to sll9t each sub
necessary to render the amount Of money accom-
Der cent payment on his whole subscription This
would constitute such large margin as to assure
instanSe man Who applied for 100 shares accom-
nanind his subscrptIon with a check Tor 500 He
was allotted twenty shares value $1,000 which
his $500 check represented payment of % per
vert It's had been compiled with, he was
absolutely entitled TO three shares OF every five
proportion which Mr.. Rogers wanted a bogus
baaGcd 0 put in BY him and this is
the fraud was committed The National City Bank
was in duty bound to protect the public from any
such bogus subscription and to see that fair treat
TO the trust permitted this bogus subscription
be put in. eleven hours after the bids had been
opened. 1t utterly failed 10 comply with the con-
dtions OF its advertisement. and was thus direct
party the fraud perpetrated by its president and
Mr.. Rogers. The exact amount Of the bogus sub
scription could not be decided until the exact
figures of the subscriptions had been compiled.
50 the figures I gave out that night were only
estimates Within the next few days il was ascer-
tanned the genuine subscriptions totaled
$1@2 O57.50O upon which allotment OF one share
in five, S6,41350o Of stock altogether. was made
to the public.
In this way the conspirators secured from the
public $50 43 800 the original cost, 900, and
yet retained $S5Oo0o0 Of the authorized stock
Of $76oO0Ogo. In other words the public paid two
thirds Of the purchase price and the conspiratOrS
retained nearly. two-thirds of the property.

The Richest of Advertising Agents.

From Printers INK
Mr. l.. F. Shattuck had published paper
in the Buckeye state, and through that
means 1t had come about that he had at
one time been of service to an Ohio poll
tician Salmon p Chase by name. At the
beginning of the civil war, in 1861, the gov
eminent was unprepared and found itself
sadly in need of money. Interest was paid
at rate as high I $40 per cent per
annum Finally, when bonds were put on
the mar ket by the hundred millions, an en-
terprsing young banker, one from Ohio
but then of Philadelphia-Jay Cooke & Co.
was the firm name-came prominently to
the front as a government agent for placing
the securities. The bonds had to be adver-
tised. MIR. Chase, Secretary of the Treas
ury, sent for Mr.. Cooke and said to him
that Mr.. Shattuck was his friend and that
he (Chase) particularly desired that such
advertising had to be done should be
sent out through Mr.. Shattucks agency in
New York.
Prices did not cut much of figure In
placing 1t. Mr.. Cooke said to Mr.. Shat
tuck: IF publisher has enterprise enough
to ask for the advertisement give it to
him." AS the question of high or q low
price did not enter very much into the call
culation, long as the figures on the rate
card were not exceeded, there was little
real difficulty about any papers eventually
securing the order, Shattuck getting his
commission. and the public being favored
with a sight of the announcement.
1t was big order. II was relied upon to
produce quick results, 1T did all that was
expected of 1t. repeat orders came quickly
and often, and when the war was ended
everybody was satisded-more than satisfied
with Mr. Chase. Mr.. Cooke and Mr. Shat
tuck; and so great had grown Mr. Shat
tucks reputation that little later he had
in hand the enormous contract of placing
the securities of the Union Pacific railroad
The result of these two orders were that he
came in possession of million or two of
savings. bought place at Lenox lived the
life of a country gentleman, sought and OBJ
tanned entrance for himself and family into
the exclusive society of New York that
maintains connection with the Berkshires
and Newport The good man died many
years ago. the most successful of all the
advertising agents that have had an ex-
istence in America, and the one who more
tnan any other escaped unkndly criticism.

The Value of a Heart.

FROM the Cnlcaeo tribune.
Civilization and progress are ever pre-
senting new questions for man to solve.
The advancement of humanity constantly
begets complicated problems. One Of the
latest of these problems which mere man
must take 1t upon himself to answer is:
What is the value of womans heart?
What should man pay who wins the love
OF woman and in the end neglects to mar
ry her? This Is a question that has never
been adjusted. despite the obvious desirable
fty OF such adjustment Recourse to the
law and a trial is the course which a woman
must pursue when she wishes to secure
balm for a wounded heart. The divergence
OF opinion as to the market value of a
shattered love Is great that a trial by
jury is necessary for the settlement of most
breach-of-promse cases. Even the women
who suffer the broken hearts differ as to
the amount necessary to heal such wounds.
Undoubtedly, the man who induces a wom-
an to become engaged to him and later re-
fuses to marry her commits a grevious
wrong. He places her In disagreeable po-
sitiOn before the world. He may ruin her
happiness for life. The longer the engage
ment the greater the wrong, for the girl
who swears allegiance to a man for three
or four years on his promise to marry may
have lost all her chances for a successful
matrimonial career If he prove false to his
promise. Punishment should be also heaped
upon his head in proportion to the ardor
of his declarations. OF lukewarm love a
girl may have her suspicious. but the love
that prompts burning avowals of undying
passion she has a good and proper right to
regard one that will not fail. The age
OF the woman In the question may influence
the amount to which the heart breaker is
liable. A woman whose better years Of
eligibility in the matrimonial arena have
been devoted to a man who falls to fulfill
his promises can justly be considered as
more injured than the maiden Of eighteen
summers. who has many years of eligibility
before her. All these things should be we'll
considered by jurors who, are to fix the
amount that a sued heart-breaker should
pay.

SEARCH FOR BURIED TREASURE.
How Mexican Gold Concealed in Okla
homa is to Be Recovered.

uOuld is 10 De n0COV6reQ.
From the Cheyenne Star.
There has been a generally circulated
tradition among the old-tmers that a
large sum of gold was buried somewhere
in this part of the territory.
Some people claim the treasure Is To-
Gated in the Wichita mountains and 9TH
ers say in this county. The story goes
that a party of prospectors. mostly Mexi-
cans, were on their way home, about
forty-six years ago, carrying a large
amount of wealth, when they We're at
tackled by Indians and all but two or
three of the party were killed. The gold
was buried before the survivors made
their escape, and various maps and plats
have been claimed to be in the possession
of different parties showing where the
treasure was buried, and several attempts
have been made to locate the spot
1t now appears that the Rev. Mr.. Davis.
well-known and respected citizen of
our county, has been in possession of a
map given by Mexican who claimed to
have been one of the survivors. showing
the lay of the ground where the battle
took place, trees with branches and holes
certain distances from the ground the
spot. designated where the slain were
buried, the place where the gold was
buried and a general outline of the coun-
try and immediate vicinity of the much
sought-for spot. Mr.. Davis has been on
still hunt for several years and finally
located what he believes to be the place
on the Sandstone southeast of Cheyenne.
He began investigation, found the de-
scribed tree dug and found skeletons.
located the spot where the gold was bur-
led, dug and found indications Of the dirt
having been disturbed in the past and
what was believed to have been a portion
of the canvas containing the gold. On ac-
count of the water filling the hole opera
tons were discontinued until a pump
could be secured. Last Saturday a trac-
left ELK Citv for the
of operating a big pump, and digging
will be resumed.
Disinterested parties who have been let
on the inside and have seen the map say
1t Is a sure thing" and the oft-told ira
dition of buried treasure will prove to be
fact.

SENSATIONAL VIEWS OF RUS

State Matters Declared to Be Going
From Bad to Worse Whites
Opinions

ST. PETERSBURG. June 1.-THE Slovo
this morning published a remarkably SEN
sational interview, filed with the gloomiest
forebodings. with NJ. White, president of
the committee of ministers. The Russian
statesman's name is not mentioned, but the
veil of his identity can be pierced by the
veriest tyro. He evidently spoke with the
profound conviction that the affairs of state
are going from bad to worse and under
personal Irritation produced by the in
trigues which compel him to sit idle during
the present crisis Every word was black
with pessimfsm. The statesman made 1t
clear that Foreign Minister Lamsdorff for
one opposes his having anything to do with
the peace negotiations.
= Asked concerning the report that he Is
going abroad charged with a mission in re-
gard to the negotiations for peace, M.
Witte replied his words being given liter
ally they contain much hidden meaning:
mo. l certainly will not go on such
mission for three reasons. The last of
them is that ] shall do everything to avoid
1t. Even if the rumor of Lamsdorff's resig-
nation is true, which l insist is not the
case, the main situation would not be
changed and the first and third reasons
would hold for me.
Nothing Surprising.
Nothing that Russia has gone through
is surprising. I gave warning in due time
that only the matchwood of Rojestvensky' 8
squadron would reach Vladivostok. In a

MYSTERIOUS DEATHS.
One Dead and Another Dying Found in

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CHICAGO, June 1.-two men, one dead
and one dying, were found on the floor OF
a gas-filled room at the Lennox Hotel early
today amid circumstances that mystify the
police. They are declared to be Thomas
Levean and John Levean.
The mysterious feature that puzzles the
police is the fact that although the men
registered at the hotel under the same
name and took a room together, they do
not look like brothers and carried no slips
of writing in their pockets that could be
used for Identification
