INSPECTOR DICKSON SUSPENDED.
Said to Have Let Get.Rich. Quick Men
PrOsper by His Delay.

PHILADELPHIA June l2.-Warren W..
Dickson chief post Office inspector in this
city. has been suspended pending an in
vestigation into his conduct Of the Office.
For several weeks Inspectors Ryan and
Cortelyou have been looking into Dick
sons management. Advices from Wash
ington tonight said that he would prob
ably be dismissed, but that there would
be no criminal charges, as all such were
outlawed by lapse Of time.
Chief Dicksen's suspension ia directly
due to the recent investigation by the
inspectors into the get-rich quick schemes
in this city. The Department at Washing
ton Is said to have become convinced that
Dickson did not report his former investi-
cations into these concerns to Washington
In as prompt manner as the regulations
required. This irregularity Is said to have
permitted the get-rich quick concerns
to prosper here.
Chief Dickson was also responsible for
the action of his subordinate, George W..
Holden who was suspended recently be-
cause of his acceptance OF loan OF SLIGO
from the head OF the Storey Cotton Com
pany when he was investigating that
concern.
Inspector Albert E. Furness is in tenn
porary charge Of the local office. Should
Dickson be permanently removed, he will
probably be succeeded by Inspector Cor
telyou, who is Postmaster General Cortel-
yous brother.

THEIR KILKENNY CASTLE.
Some Reasons why Architect Haydel Didn't
build II for the Howard GOul6is.

MINRoLA l.. l., June 12.-Tha CASE Of
Architect Abner j. Haydel against Howard
Gould was called to-day for trial in the
Supreme Court of Nassau County before
Justice Keogh Haydel is suing to recover
ST., 742 which he declares Ia for commissions
due him for plans which he drew UP for the
castle, facsimile OF Kilkenny, that Mr..
Gould Was to erect on his estate at Sands
Point. Mrs. Gould was in court with her
husband, both coming over from Sands
Point in their automobile. Mr. Ha ydel con-
tends that he received the order to begin
the plans for the castle in january, 1901,
and that nearly six months was consumed
in completing the nineteen different sets.
Haydel declares that he employed ak men
to make large dra wings for a number Of
weeks and that late in June the plans for
Castlegou d were completed and accepted.
There was a conference bet ween the
at the Waldorf Mrs. Gould, the archit ect
said, wished some changes made. Haydel
says disagreement arose. nd Mrs. Gould
threat ened to have the architect removed
from the hotel. Then he left. Later the
Goulds sent for Haydel to again come to
the hotel. This he refusedto do, but offered
to meet the Goulds at his office, 100 Fifth
avenue.
Haydel said that when he took his plans
to the Waldorf to Mrs. Cold she insiet ed
that he must make three separate sets.
This he refused to do, saying that they
were too expensive.
4Mrs. Gould then got in fearful rage, !"
said Haydel and, pointing to the door
OF her room, said You damned architect
do you see that door Well, If you don't
get out. ! will have you put out, and with
this she rang bell for tellboy. then
stepped out Of tho room and asked what
You be here next Tuesday morning at 8
O'clock
The afternoon session Of the trial was
taken up with reading letters that had been
exchanged between the Goulds and Archi-
tect Haydel. Many drawings and rapers
we're also submitted
The case Will lie continued.

STANDARD OIL CHECKS FORGED.
The Indiana OIL Field Flooded With Thcm
--FOrEertes May Reach 500 900.

MARION Ind. June IA check swinde
has developed in the local oil field which
may assume large proportions. F. S.
Davis, treasurer of the Standard Oil Com
pany, arrived here yesterday from Oil City.
Pa, and with President Reasoner of the
First National Bank examined several
checks cashed by the First National Bank
for local merchants. who had first cashcd
and then Endorsed them. Checks amounting
to 81 900. and ranging in amount from S80up-
ward. we're found. and checks in other tanks
and tho se in transit will no doubt bring
the total up to several thousand dollars.
The blank checks are said to ha We been pro-
cured from the American Safety Paper
Company and are exact REPRODUCED ons Of
the Standard Oil checks. 1t Is thought
that the forgeries will amount to 100000
or more.
The forgery was not discovered until
the checks began arriving in the New York
offics. and Mr.. Davis was sent to the differ..
emit oil fields to protect the bankers and
merchants. 1t ia said that checks are
coming into New York from the Pennsyl-
vania, Ohio. Indiana and Kentucky oil
fields, and 1t Ia impossible to estimate at
this time the total amount. Local mer-
chants have always cashed the checks
without hesitation. and several Of them
will be losers.
The checks passed through the National
CITY Bank Of New York and therefore
were not discovered until the May payroll
was checked up at Oil City, Pa. The checks
were printed on peculiar paper, OF which
only three firms have the secret, and bea 7
the signature OF F. c. Bates treasurer OF
the oil company.
