Washington, Aug. 23.-Charles R.
Mckinney Of, St. Paul, former member
of4.the legislature. and now enrolling
clerk Of the national house of repre-
sentatives, is absolved from all blame
in connection with the delay in enroll

of the last session Of congress.
A. H. Howe, clerk Of the. senate COM
mittee on printing, was authorized to
make an investigation to determine
where the fault lay. He finds that Nc
Kenney cannot be blamed because he
was not provided with enough help to
do the great mass Of work which accu-
INFLATED at the close of the session.
Howe also gives the government
printing office clean bill Of health,
and reaches the general conclusion that
the fault lay with congress in not pro-
viding sufficient force in rush times.

brokerage Offices in the east and
south, comprising the Gal" Adams
chain of bucketshops, which have been
operating under the name of M. j.
Sage & Co., will close up, wiped out
by the great rise in stocks.
1t was decided to make an assign
ment to Chief Clerk William Beverly

notice was then taken down.
The bull market of last week and
the tremendous advance of Union
and Southern Pacific hit Adams, the
former policy king, so hard that he
notified his bucketshop representatives
that no further advances could be ex-
pected from him. His losses on fthc
street, last week were nearly 100000.
What NJ. J. Sage & Co. lost will only
be known when the extent Of their
liabilities to their $4,000 customers
comes out. 1t is estimated that the
losses to bucketshops and customers

the cause Of suspension.
A member of the firm today estimat

New York, Aug. 23.-If the plans of
Captain George B. Boynton, soldier of
fortune: and promoter of revolutions,
had only counted on steering clear of
the United States secret service, two
months would have seen Venezuela
again in the throes Of a civil war. But
no thought of Uncle Sam detective bu-
reau entered the captain IS mind, and
the consequence was that he, Lewis M.
Thompson a book agent, and Joseph A.
and Sidney Keller, die and money; press
makers, have been remanded by
United States Commissioner Ridgeway
on charges of counterfeiting a foreign
government s mintage.
Boynton figured on departing from
New York with dies and presses and all
the necessary machinery with which to
manufacture Venezuelan dollars Of
weight and excellence equal to
the genuine Bolivars. With $4,000
worth of silver bullion he intended to
make $4,000 Of Venezuelan legal ten
der and with that amount purchase
more bullion and make $4,000 and with
the. 100000 make $4,000 and so 20 on
coming until the endless chain had
wound itself into revolution.

not take up the individual cases which
may be presented to the department..
One of the things he will press upon
the department as soon as he is recog-
nized officially is an allowance of more
help for the agency so, that the allot-
ments already made by. Agent Michelet
may be scheduled and submitted to the
department for action. Some OF these
allotments were made more than a year
ago, but have not reached Washington
because of lack of force to prepare the
schedules.

been buying enormous quantities Of
Milwaukee. This stock has been re-
ported very scarce in the loan crowd
of late. Moreover, Hartman has
added somewhat to his reputation by
his recent performance, and the street
is quite willing to believe that he is
capable of most anything, that is, of
course. in the stock market line.
However, nothing was disclosed yes
terday to account for the advance of

Chicago. Aug. 23-Charging nearly
million dollar swindle thru the opera
ton Of fake Mexican plantation
scheme, Chicago postal authorities have
raided the offices of the Tobasco CHA
pas Trading and Transportation COM
pany, and the Lu-Me-Ha Mills company.
Henry D. Bushnell, president, and l..
H. Miller, secretary and treasurer, were
arrested and held in bonds of $4,000
each. ;.--.'
The government officials, who have
been working on the case for several
weeks, charge that the only asset of the
company is a tract of land in Mexico,
and that glowing accounts Of the steam
ship lines and coffee plantations are
myths and designed to separate "gold-
bricked' investors from their money.
The only dividends that have been
paid thus far, they charge: have come
out Of the money paid in by investors.
This swindle, assert the inspectors,
has already Melted the operators $780,
900 in FIVE years, and the amount may
be larger when all the evidence is un-
covered.
