UNEARTH BIG FRAUD
Stock Certificates Said to Have Been
Raised by a Philadelphia Firm and
Large Sums of Money Borrowed On
Them-one Bank Loaned $225,oo0

Philadelphia, June 20.-The Phila-
delphia Stock Exchange sent notice to
it's members today warning them
against negotiating stock certificates
bearing the signature of Benjamin H.
Gaskill of Benjamin II. Gaskill & Co.
Back of this is said to be a sensational
story of forgery and raising of certifi-
Gates, involving hundreds of thou
sands of dollars. The discovery of the
Irregularities was made by Miller &
Co., bankers and brokers. Benjamin
H. Gaskill, senior member of the first
named firm died three weeks ago. One
of his customers transferred his ac-
count to Miller & Co. and in the ac-
count was a certificate Of 100 shares
of Philadelphia traction, worth about
$4,000. 1t subsequently developed the
certificates had been raised one share.
The discovery created a sensation IN
financial circles as it is reported many
spurious transactions of the same sort
have been made. One bank is said TO
have loaned s225,00O on raised certifi-
Gates.

Point, in Lee county. The ear of corn
which cost the fair association $50 is
now on exhibition in the rooms of the
agricultural department. in the state
house. 1t is expected that the prize
will attract as much attention this
year as last and will do much to help
to stimulate the corn raising educa-
tional propaganda. Along with this
prize others will be offered. One is a
prize of $50 for the best ten ears, and
second prize of s25 for second best
ten ears. For artistic display of corn
in an exhibit, prizes to the amount Of
$3.50 are given again this year and for
the display of grains ano grasses
prizes up to $780, Altogether prizes
amounting to s735 are being given for
corn in some shape or other.
Considerable interest is being arous-
ed in the mich COW test for which a
800 prize is being offered by the fair.
1t is the first time it has been offered.

The fair is but a couple uf months
distant now and the employees of Sec
retary Simpsons office are busy send
ing out the advertising matter. The
hangers are somewhat different than
in former years. They are prettier and
more attractive.
Some misguided friends of Miss Ber-
tha Schultze, of Gearing. have sent to
Superintendent John F. Riggs a $5 bill.
though just what he is to do with it is
not plain. The letter bears evidence
that Miss Schultze had no knowledge
that the letter was being written. 1t
bears no signature and merely urges
the SUPERIOR teaching ability of Miss
Schultze. Inclosed was the S. bill, and
a paper with numerous signatures to
that statement that Miss Schultze was
a teacher of superior ability. 1t is not
often that bribes are sent to state Off
cials. However, now and then letter
brings a greenback. The last which
was received at the office Of the super
intendent of public instruction was S25
from young lady who failed twice to
pass the state examination. AS Mr..
Riggs could not send the money back
to the sender as there was no sigma
ture to the letter, he has sent the bill
and the letter both to Miss Schultze.
Charles Aldrich's greatest pride in
the new historical building, the walls
Of which are now up to the second
floor, is in the fact that the stone Is
Iowa stone ALI the stone in the build
ing is Marshalltown stone. The other
building material also so far as possl-
BILE is from this state. Mr.. Aldrich
believes that the building material in
the state will some day be one of its
chief assets. The stone quarries have
hardly been touched and there are nu-
merous auarries over the state or nu-
merous beds of stone where quarries
are possible.

SAYS WALLACE WILL RESIGN.
Report Declares He Will Not Return
to the lsthmus.

Colon, June 20.-It was publicly an
nounced that John +. Wallace, chief
engineer of the canal zone, VINO sailed
for the United States June 16, was go
ing home by order of Secretary Taft
for the purpose of consultation on
important matters prior to the sailing
of the secretary for the Philippines,
and that he was not likely to return
TO the isthmus until his annual report
had been written and he had secured
a. short rest, which he was unable to
take on his last trip, owing to pressure
of business.
Since the departure of Mr.. Wallace,
however, it has been said in inf1uen-
tial circles that he does not intend to
return to the isthmus to resume his
position of engineer. but that he has
gone home to confer with Secretary
Taft on the subject of his resigna-
ton.
Shortly before he sailed Mr.. Wallace
was the recipient of memorial from
the heads of the departments on te-
half of the canal employees expressing
deep appreciation of the benefits re-
cutting from the new schedule of hours
and wages, and from the betterment
in the general welfare of all connect
ed with the work on the canal.
The fact that Mr. Wallace went
home accompanied by his wife and his
two secretaries seems in some quarters
to lend credence to the rumor that he
does not intend to return.

terruption of other powers. In case
there should be an irrecopcilable point
of difference calling for outside as
sistance the plenipotentiaries will APP
peal to the president for help.
The renewed activity of the war
party in Russia does not cause alarm
here, because of the general realiza- :
ton that the president in his initial
representations to the emperor and in
subsequent communications has dealt
directly with the emperor and Count
Lamsdorff has served only as a means
of communications. No doubt is felt
here the emperor will stand firm in his
decision to discuss peace with Japan
in good faith and in an earnest effort
to bring 1t about.

Controversy Between Minister

TAFT FINDS AGAINST MINISTER
His Report to the President Today
Says There Was Not Sufficient
Foundation For Charges Made
Against the Acting Secretary Bowen
to be Dismissed From Service.

Washington, June 20.-1t can be
stated on official authority that the
Loomis-Bowen case has not only been
settled finally, so far as the admins
tration is concerned, but settled in
favor of Loomis. The charges against
Loomis, for which Minister Bowen
practically stood, are declared to be
without sufficient foundation in fact to
be worthy of future consideration. Sec
retary Taft's report to the president.
which probably will be made public
later in the day, will show this. Some
criticism of Loomis was made at the
meeting of the cabinet today, but it
was not of nature to reflect in any
way upon his integrity. The charges
against Loomis are discussed fully in
Secretary Taft's report, but the report
contains no recommendation as to
Bowen. The understanding between
the president and Taft was the latter

King Oscar and the riksdag, adopted
by the stortning yesterday, and the
Swedish people generally in reply to
the long letter which the king sent
June 13 to the president of the storth-

It is understood if the plenipoten-

of the diplomats representing neutral

been formal exchanges between the

is their unanimous opinion it would
be in bad taste for any diplomat not
directly interested in the conference to

mats conimends itself to the belliger-

Exactinq.

ST. Petersburg, June ,2O.-Japanese
terms of peace, according to an inter-
view had by a correspondent Of the
Novoe Vrenlya, with member of the
japanese embassy at Vienna, will
prove to be more moderate than had
been expected, and will be based on
the representations made in the Japan
ese note on the eve of hostilities with
the addition of an indemnity covering
the cost of the war.
Japan will not insist on humiliating
terms, such as the cession of the
island Of Sahaklin, the disarmament
of Vladivostok or the restriction of the
Russian naval rights in the Pacafic,
but will insist on guarantees against
the renewal of the war for half a CEN
tury at least.
The diplomat is quoted as saying
that Japan wishes to live on terms
of friendship with Russia in the fu-
ture and is not disposed to take over
harsh stipulations.
