Reported That New York Grand Jury
Will Tndict Former Mutual
Life Officials.

New York, June 1.-THE Evening
Post publishes the following: In
stead of resulting in the indictment of
only one or at most two of the moder-
ately prominent former officers of the
Mutual Life Insurance company, the
special grand jury's work, according
to an excellent authority, will include
the indictment of four, or possibly five,
of the most prominent officers of the
old order. The jury will complete it's
work next week, probably on June
Is. The notion raat the indictments
were to be few in number has been
quietly spread abroad, and there is
reason to believe that the report of
those granted immunity bath" was
exaggerated. The net result will be
to insu,e genuine surprise when the
jury actually does finish up it's work
and make public it's findings

DEVELOPMENT in Alaska.

Alaska is still great lone land,
but with considerable railroad build.
ing in progress, it may be on the eve
of great change. People prefer to
travel to gold fields by rail to track
ing over mountains and wastes, and
we may yet see considerable towns de-
velop there, for those now in existence
are in many instances little more than
hamlets. Any place in Alaska having
300 inhabitants can become an incor.
porated town. Even these cannot be
numerous in this vast region. Con-
gress has neglected Alaska. The
schools are small and struggling and
their condition deters many transients
from becoming homeseekers. AS a
commercial proposition Alaska has
made a good showing, but the visions
Of the great arctic commonwealth which
were entertained at the time of it's &C.
QUESTION have not materialized.

Forgerv bv Phonograph

Forgery by photograph is a new
crime discovered in Hungary. The
son of wealthy peasant proved an
oral will of his father by testimony Of
servants who heard voice from the
dying parents bed saying: 81 leave
all my property to my eldest son,
Alois, and my other children are to get
nothing" Such statement is valid
in Hungary. Subsequently, however,
the police were informed that the voice
the servants heard was not that of his
father, but that Alois had spoken the
words into phonograph. He had
placed the instrument under his ia
theirs bed, and when the old man had
lost consciousness called the servants
in and set the it going. The police
searched the house and found the pho
nograph record as described. Alois is
now to be charged with fraud.

CHINESE AS SLOW AS EVER
Agricultural Machinery Is Rarity
in the Fields of Their
Country.

In the agricultural sections of the
entire Yangtse valley there is prac-
tically no use whatever for foreign
agricultural implements. The Chi.
nese laborers in the rice and cotton
fields, in the mulberry groves and in
the gardens find the Chinese imple-
ments of greater utility than any OF
the foreign and adhere to them. The
Chinese hoe, which contains a much
greater weight of metal than the for
eign one, being practically a mattock,
is, according to their ideas, more
serviceaDle in this heavy soil than
the foreign Implement.
All the ordinary hand implements
of agriculture are shaped and con-
structed according to Chinese taste.
Agricultural machinery is not used
in this section, even the plow being
great rarity. The Chinese turn over
the ground usually with their mat
tocks. 1t is narrowed in a primitive
way and when the crop is gathered
hand labor does all the work.
Under, these conditions it is not
strange that the importing firms of
Shanghai do not consider it worth
while to carry line of agricultural
implements. 1t is difficult even to OBJ
tain a foreign implement for use in
the garden of a foreigner in Shanghai.
This is the present condition and to
all appearances it bids fair to con
tinue for an indefinite period. In the
north, and especially in Manchuria,
some agricultural implements are be-
ing used, but these are rather the re-
suit Of Russian introduction than OF
Chinese desire. The statement was
made recently in one of the northern
papers that the introduction of mod.
ern agricultural implements seemed
practically as far Off as ever.

PROMOTER is FOUND GUILTY
F. E. BoRGEs CONVICTED OF
SWINDLING AT BOSTON.
Was Head of Ubero Plantation Com
pany Of Mexico-Ex-Congress-
man Also in Scheme,

Boston, June 11.-Guilty on one
count OF conspiracy and 70 counts OF
larceny was the jury's verdict in the
case Of Ferdinand E. Borges, whose
trial mas been in progress for the pas:
three weeks in the superior court
Borges had been indicted in company
with former Congressman William D.
Owen, OF Indiana, on 1926 counts OF lar
ceny and two of conspiracy in connec-
ton with promoting the Ubero Plan
tation company, of Boston and Mexico.
Owen has not been arrested. Sentence
was deferred.
Upo1 the two counts of conspiracy
the jury disagreed upon the first and
found the defendant guilty upon 1he
second. On the first IS counts OF lar
ceny disagreement was reported, and
upon the 70 remaining counts of lar
ceny the verdict was guilty. Judge
White complimented the jurymen upon
the result OF their work. He said
their decision was just and that any
other finding would have been a mis-
carriage of justice. He scored Borges,
as having come east 'sfor the delib-
crate purpose Of stealing the money
of unsuspecting people," During the
proceedings Borges was apparently I'M
concerned. Borges was charged with
selling stock in the Ubero Plantation
company, by holding out false induce
ments as to the character of the COM
pany, which owned several hundred
acres OF land in Mexico. The advertis-
ing literature described profitable
growths of coffee, rubber, pineapple,
and other tropical fruits. An inves-
tigation by stockholders resulted in
the appointment of a receiver and sub
sequently the arrest of Borges. Dur
ing the trial it was brought out that
the plantation lands were generally
unculti1ated, and that the samples OF
fruit which, the company alleged were
grown on the plantation were bought
at city fruit stores. Former Congress-
man Owen was alleged to be the bust
ness partner Of Borges. He is under
indictment in the same number OF
counts as was Borges.
