KEENAN, DENIES IT
He Says There is No Deficit in Work-
 men Treasury

New Haven. July s.-Grand Master Hugh A. keenan. Of the Ancient Or der of United Workermen. last night denied the statements printed in To- cal paper yesterday afternoon with re- gard to an alleged deficit in the grand treasury and the statement that 3n death claims were unpaid at the pres ent time. MT keenan said Of the story:
 That allegation is deliberate lie. There are not 30 unpaid death claims in the order. as shown by my report. nor are there any unpaid claims dat ing from March or April. There are only nine unpaid death claims and these cannot be settled. according to the charter of the order, till the finance committee. composed of Messrs Bis sell, Mix and Curtiss. has approved Of them. When the records of the deaths are received and approved. every cent of the claims will be paid.
 The statement in the paper yester- day says that death claims unpaid are one in March. nine in April. sixteen in May and four in June. The actual facts are that there are only five un- paid claims for May and four in June and these are held up awaiting re- ports

DISMISSED FOR COTTON LEAKS.
E. z. Holmes Leaves Service at In-
 stance of Secretary Wilson.


 WASHINGTON. July s.-Secretary of Agriculture Wilson. acting on the report of the secret service officers who investigated the cotton report scandal, has summarily dismissed Edwin S. Holmes. associate statistician, from the government service.
 Holmes is dismissed for having sold advance reports of the cotton crop to falsifed the figures in such a way as to aid persons who had bought or sold cotton and carried a large number of bales on his account.
 Holmes has amassed a comfortable fortune. When questioned as to how he got his money he said he made it through a friend who met him on 8 train and importuned him to buy gold mine stock. To get rid of him he in- vested and to his astonishment dis covered that he had made sf0.000 in a short time.
 There does not seem to he the slight. est probability that the cotton crop re- port and other scandals in the depart ment of agriculture will end with the report of the secret service agents. The matter will probably be carried to President Roosevelt. who will be asked to order an investigation of the department which shall not be under the control of the secretary of agri- culture

PRESIDENTS POWER
Used This Week in Pafdoning High
 Toned Counterfsiters.

A most remarkable exhibition of the pardoning power of the president Of the United States was made this week when William L. kendig and William NJ. Jacobs, two prominent citizens of Lancaster. Pa. convicted of being inn plicated in the most gigantic counter feiting scheme in the history of the country. were pardoned. There has been much criticism as result of. this exercise of executive clemency.
 The arrest of these men in 1899 caused a profound sensation and was
 made in connection with the arrest of Arthur Taylor and Baldwin Bredeil at Philadelphia. These two men were the authors of the cleyerest counter felt ever produced, S1Oo Monroe head silver certificate. The engraving on this note was so excellent that the abil- ity of the secret service men was taxed to the utmost to discover the one or two slightest flaws that had aroused the suspicious of Philadelphia bank CT. Within few weeks many of these notes were put into circulation ana the situation became so serious that the secretary of the treasury called ill the whole issue. amounting to millions of dollars. and warned the public against accepting any notes of that de nomination whatever. Jacobs and kendig were large cigar manufactur- CTS While the evidence did not con meet them with the issuance of the counterfeit silver certificates it was shown that they had arranged with the counterfeiters to furnish them counterfeit internal revenue stamps for use on their cigars. These stamps actually used amounted to thousands of dollars. The men were sentenced in June. 1900. 10 twelve years in the penl- tentiary besides a fine of S5.00o each. The trials cost the government large sum of money, and the law officers and secret service men thought they had administered the counterfeiters a lesson that would not soon be forgot ten. The president issued the pardon on the ground that the sentence was 1 excessive.
