city. place the bill of lading in the bank
and secure a loan of cash upon 1t. hen
he would forge a duplicate bill of a
ing. which he would send to the con-
signee, with which the release of the
car would be gained. In some IN
stances. it was found, that each bank
had loaned money on a carload OF grain
which had been released by a third
forged bill of lading, rendered by the
actual purchaser. He operated Tor
ouite a while before he was detected,
and then, by some means, got wind of
the discovery of his wrongdolng and
left the city.
He was indicted for forgery on ten
counts, and circulars bearing his photo
graph were sent broadcast over the
country by the local detective bureau.
The National Newark Banking Com
pany. which held approximately $4,000
of original bills of lading, brought suit
gains the Lackawanna railroad,
which had released the cars on counter
feits. and won a verdict for the amount
of Archer's thefts there. The present
complaint against Archer is signed by
Joseph w. Plume, president of the
Manufacturers National Bank.
An officer from the detective bureau
or the county prosecutors staff, pre-
sumably the latter, will be sent on TO
Seattle at once to bring Archer to this
city.

DID NOT PROTEST
AGAINST EXCISE
BOARD CHANGES
Commission Denies that 1t Petit
toned Against Permanent
Body Plan.

PLAINFIELD, Nov. 21.-The State
Excise investigating Commission had
another session today at the office of
Mayor Charles j. Fisk, the second this
week. The object was to hasten the
work Of drafting the report of the COM
mission.
1t was recently reported that Mayor
Fisk, who is chairman of the COM
mission, had asked the members of the
board to sign a paper stating that they
would not accept places on a perma-
nent State Excise Board If the COM
mission recommended one, and the
Legislature should create it. The pur-
pose was to show that the members
of the commission were not selfish in
their report.
The statement was made by a MEM
Der of the commission that this is not
true and that no request was made
by Mr.. Fisk, nor was any paper pre-
pared. The member would not say
that the matter was talked about. He
did say no member had signed such a
paper.
Two members of the commission,
who rave been absent from the State
for several months, Mayor r. Frank
Appleby, of Asbury Park, who is in
Europe. and J. Kearny Rice, of New
Brunswick. who is in Arizona, are
expected back within the next couple
of weeks. They will probably sign
such a report as is favored by the ma
jority, as they have no actual personal
knowledge of the discussions that have
taken place among the commissioners
over the matter of drafting the re-
port.
There are seven members, the others
whose names are not mentioned above
being John Howe, of Newark; Peter
Backes, of Trenton; Caleb ". II. Whit
beck. of Hackensack, and George G.
Smith, OF Lakewood.

TO ESCAPE AGED LOVER

Hoboken Girl Spurns Man
Father Picked for Her.

TRENTON, Nov. 21.-Miss Mamie
Beffano, of Hoboken, arrived al the
State Home for Girls today to escape
marriage with an old man selected as
her future husband by her father.
Beffano recently caused the arrest of
his daughter as an incorrigible. She
told Judge Blair that her fathers ale
cations hat she kept late hours and
bad company were untrue. Mrs. Caro-
line Alexander, of Hoboken, and Miss
Frances Day, of Jersey City, proba-
ton officers, investigated and reported
in her favor.
Miss Beffano went to the county
court house and asked Judge Blai to
send her to a home. Her father, she
said, had turned her out of doors be-
cause she refused to marry a man
older than himself. Judge Blair said
he would send her to the trenton
Home
1t is likely that charges will be
made against Beffano.
