Sale of Beloit Gas, Water and
Electric Plant Reveals
swindle
CINCINNATI BROKER FLEEs
CINCINNATI BROKER FLEEs
A. L. Rich Said to Have Been Prime
Mover in a Deal Involving Sale of
Fraudulent Bonds to Amounts As-
gregating Nearly Million Dollars.

Beloit, Wis, April 3O.-The local
sale Of the Beloit gas, water and cleo
trio plants to a Cincinnati man has
been followed by the sudden flight of
A. L. Rich, prominent Cincinnati
broker, and the discovery that loans
for large amounts had been obtained
by him ON fraudulent bonds.
Rich is believed to be hiding in Mil
waukee with his wife. 1t seems that
Rich adopted the scheme of Prior, the
Cleveland broker, who recently dupli-
Gated bogus bonds from the genuine
plates and then forged all the sigma
lures, obtaining on them many thou
sands of dollars. The only feature
Rich did not follow is to commit sui
eide as Prior did.
Last February Rich and two other
Cincinnati brokers got into deal to
take over the gas, water and electric
plants in Beloit, a transaction aggre-
eating $1,000,0OO. On Feb. ~ the three
brokers were at Beloit. Mrs. Rich
went to Milwaukee Feb. IA. She car
ried a satchel which contained $4,000
worth of forged Wood county (Ohio)
bonds wrapped in a towel.
These bonds were put UP as optional
security on the deal. These forged
bonds were placed in banks in James
vile, Wis, by the brokers, but $4,000
of the lot were later taken up by the
three brokers before their genuineness
had been doubted P. S. Briggs took
up $4,000 worth in the GAINESVILLE
banks several weeks later, when he
learned that they we're forged. Briggs
is Rich's partner and was one of the
three in the Beloit deal.
In financing the Beloit deal the
Queen City bank of this city loaned
them $4,000, a representative of the
bank going to Milwaukee and handing
over that amount of money in return
for the equivalent in the forged bonds
brought on by Mrs. Rich. 1t was nee
essary to secure more, and that was
secured from the GAINESVILLE bank with
the remainder of the forged bonds.
AS far as can be learned there still
remains in the neighborhood of $4,000
worth of these bogus bonds, and it is
believed that some CT them are in Mil
waukee and other Wisconsin banks
Briggs discovered early last week that
the bonds. were forgeries and the same
day Rich took flight.

and For Lighting Towns on Route.
Spevta, IN Times Republican.
Fairfield, April 30.-After five
months silence, it is now proposed to
use the Des Moines river to furnish
power not only for interurban railway
purposes between this city and Keo-
sauqua, but also for lighting and
power in the towns along the right of
way, it being claimed that electricity
can be furnished in this way at a cost
much lower than at present. The pro-
ject is being investigated by four In
diana men-Henry Buser, Frank Drag
goo, A. w. Carpenter, and j. T. Carpen-
ter-whose plan is to organize a COM
pany with a capital of $1,000,000, of
which amount s150,00O is to be in pre-
ferred stock with a guaranteed divi-
dend of per cent, and to have tax
voted by the towns and townships
thru which the proposed road will
pass. If this is successfully accom-
plished it is proposed to bond the
road for 100000, and with the money
already on hand to build and equip
the road.

snowslides in Colorado.

'The snowslides in my country seem
unusually severe this year," said Mr..
B. w Ritter, one of the leading citi-
zens of Durango, Colo, at the New
Willard. "They have blocked the rail-
way from my town to Silverton, SO as
to make travel impossible. The ordi-
nary snowstorm can be easily nulli
fed by use Of the rotary ,plows, but
these big slides hurl upon the track
vast masses of rock and u,prooted trees
to an extent that makes the plows of
no avail.
Generally speaking the slides take
pretty much the same course year af-
ter year, until the people in the noun
tains come to know their habits, so to
speak, and by using caution manage to
escape with little loss of life or prop
erty. But there is no ironclad rule
about them, and an unexpected one may
dash down mountain side bearing
ruin in its course, as was the case the
other day at the Camp Birdwine, near
Ouray. The velocity with which they
travel down the steep decleyities and
the noise they make has a terrifying
influence on the beholder."

TELLS BY
THEIR SLEEP

81 can tell by my little
ones sleep when a cold is
coming on" said a mother
when speaking of the advance
symptoms Of colds in children.
I" They toss about, are rest
less, their breathing is heavy
and there are symptoms of
night sweats. The next morn
ing / start with SCOTS Emul-
sion. The chances are that
in a day or two they are all
over it.. Their rest is again
peaceful and the breathing
normal"
Here's a suggestion for
all mothers. SCOTS Emul-
sion always has been almost
magical in its action when
used as the ounce of preven-
ton. Nothing seems to over
come child weakness quite so
effectively and quickly as
SCOTS Emulsion.

Chicago, April 30.-Wheat, at the

weak, because of profit taking by local
bulls. Wet weather in the northwest
and a run of bearish statistics were
the chief causes of selling. World

JURY FINDS COLL GUILTY.
BiqeIow's Aid in Lootins Milwaukee
Bank Must Join Him in Prison.

BiqeIow's Aid in Looting Milwaukee
Bank Must Join Him in Prison.
Milwaukee, April 30.-Henry G. Coll,
former assistant cashier of the First
National bank of this city, was yes
terday morning found guilty by jury
in the United States district court on
nineteen counts out Of thirty-four. The
counts in the indictments on which he
was found guilty relate to false entries
and the misapplication Of funds of the
bank those relating to embezzlement
and kilograms being thrown out.
The verdict was reached by the jury
after session lasting eight hours. The
amount of money Coll is alleged to
have rnisapplied was about $3.50, 900. He
was unmoved by the verdict, and re-
.ferred all interviewers to his attorneys.
He was remanded to the custody of the
United States marshal.
Attorney William E. Rubin, for the
defendant, at once made motion for
a new trial. Judge Quarles announced
he would hear arguments on the mo-
ton this forenoon.
Coils trial lasted three weeks. The
most interesting testimony was that
of the former president of the bank,
Frank G. Bigelow, who is now serving
a ten years sentence at the Fort Leav-
enworth prison, he having pleaded
guiltysto footing the bank without un-
dergoing trial
Bigelow testified that many of the
acts with which Coll was charged were
committed under his direction, but
stated that he had no knowledge of
some of them.
Justice has not moved with leaden
feet in the cases of the men responsible
for the looting of the First National
Bank of Milwaukee. 1t is but little
more than year since the news of
Bigelow's defalcation of $1,500,0OO of
the banks funds and the embezzlement
of 100000 trust funds was first pub
lished. In two months Bigelow had
pleaded guilty in the federal court at
Milwaukee, been sentenced by Judge
Quarles to serve ten years in the Fort
Leavenworth prison, and begun to
serve his term Now Coll has been
convicted for aiding Bigelow in his
crimes, and doubtless in no long time
will be sent to join his former chief.
