WORK OF THE PINKERTONs.
Years Record in Projecting Banks From
F0rgers and Burglars.


The annual report OF the Pinkerton De-
tective Agency to the protective commit
tee OF the American Bankers Association
SHOWS that the agency arrested between
September l, 1905. and September 1, l9Oo,
ninety-three persons charged with for
gerry and swindIlng and sixty-six charged
with burglary. or the former hfty-nine
were convicted, twenty are awaiting trial
sIeVen we're released and three escaped
or forfeited bail. or the sixty-six ar
rested for burglary thirty-eight were con-
victed and eleven IRE awaiting trial.
Among the cases OF ~swindling which
the Pinkertons report is one in which an
arrest was made only a few days ago. This
caae concerns one Clarence Hughes, who
operated under numerous aliases in diff
fsrent sections OF the United States with
worthless sight drafts and checks.
Hughes, says the report, was originally
a native Of Georgia and was familiar with
the names Of bank officials, 10 whom he
pretended to be related, and from different
banks obtained small amounts on this ruse,
claiming that AZ he was absent from his
native town on account Of travelling he
wa without funds
on August 30. The Pinkertons say there
are possibly fifty complaints Of minor
crimes against him.
The report contains this warning:
During the month OF August, by special
bulletin. we again warned members Of youH
association in New York city and vicinity
OF the operations OF a forger who presents
checks drawn upon some bank other than
the one visited by him, representing that
he was sent by the depositor, whose nams
he mentioned. Although We vigorously
investigated these forgeries we have thus
far been unable to determine who was CON-
cerned in them, but are in hopes, through
the circulation Of this special bulletin, tc
eventually apprehend the forgers.'

Special Cabs DsSpatehss 10 THE SUN.
ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 1.-THE evolu
tionists have determined TO counter on
the Government's proclamation Of Its pro-
grapme by q more energetic prosecution
Of the terrorist campaign. II is reported
that the terrorists have. been more COM
pletely organized, and that they are o
governed by the COUNCILS Of four unknown
men, one Of whom holds a position akin to
that Of the Head Centre Of the Irish In
vincibles of the last century.
Il Ii expected that the new efforts OF the
Terrorists will be directed against the most
prominent signers Of the nepressive pro-
gramme.
The first favorable impressions caused
by the Governments declaration OF It's
policy have been considerably modified.
The institution Of drumhead courts-martial
Ia particularly condemned. Yesterdays
buoyancy at the Bourse disappeared to-day
and predictions Of increased trouble, In
addition to a semi-oflcial intimation that
there would be a deficit OF nearly twenty
millions in the years revenues, caused al
most complete ~staEnation at the bourse'
Four per cent. bonds dropped o~ne-fourth.
LONDON, Sept. s.-The Standard learns
that the report Of the beating Of its corre-
spondent, j. F. Fraser, and his secretary
by the Circassian Guards at Warsaw was
exaggerated. Mr.. Fraser was not NAL
treated. His Russian v was roughly
handled by soldiers as the result Of an alter
cation he had with them while he was at
tempting to cross a cordoned bridge.

Head OF q Francisco Trolley Roads Re-
fuses to Discriminate.

SAN Francisco, Sept. lin the strongest
terms President Calhoun OF the United
Railroads has declared for the open shop.
When the union men returned to work
they supposed that all would get their old
positions, but Mr.. Calhoun said to-day:
Il will make no discrimination between
union and non-union men II ia the right
Of every America citizen to earn his living
regardless OF membership in a union.
Il will not discharge any man except
for cause.
THAT has beer my position right along.
There should be no question about il.
THE men ought TO have understood this.
When they went out on a strike the United
Railroads hired others to replace them,
not because we wanted to replace them, but
because we had to in order to run our cars.

STENSLAND GIVEN UP.
Wrecker Turned Over to Americans Com

WASHINGTON, Sept. THE State De-
partment was advised to-day by Minister
Gummere at Tangier, Morocco. that Paul
o. Stensland, the ~defaulting Chicago bank
president, has been turned over to Editor
Kelley Of the Chicago Tribune and Assistant
District Attorney Olsen, who have been
commissioned by this Government to bring
the fugitive home.
State Department officials do not place
confidence in Stensland's alleged willing
meas to return to Chicago, and have directed
Mr.. Kelley and Mr.. Olsen to take no chances
with him. Il ia probable, therefore, that
his departure from Tangier will be deferred
until the arrival nearly three weeks hence
OF the United States naval refrigerator ship
Glacier at Gibraltar, and probably he will
be placed aboard that vessel.
