PRESIDENTS DOUBLE
FOUND IN PITTSBURG.
Smoky City Police Sergeant
Looks and Weighs Like TAFT.

PITTSBURG, April 25.-President
Taft himself admits that he has a per-
feet double in the person of Thomas J.
Moreley, desk sergeant at Contra police
station here. contrary TO an eminent
New York artists assertion. and has in
vited Mr.. Moreley to dine with him at
the Hotel Schenley on May 1 and sit be-
side him and watch the baseball game
at Forbes Field on the day following.
Sergeant Moreley has gratefully &C
cepted the invitation. A Pittsburg
friend of the President several days g
mailed Mr.. Taft a picture of the police
sergeant dressed in his Prince Albert
coat and wearing his silk hat. h
President was so amazed with the re-
markable likeness of himself that he
Immediately wrote back:
"I want to meet Mr.. Merely when 1
come to Pittsburg, and be sure that
there is a seat reserved alongside Of
the one I am to occupy at the ball game
on May @"
At the same time Mr.. Taft authorized
his friend to invite Mr.. Moreley to have
luncheon with him at Hotel Schenley on
May l, as he says:
I'VE may be able to solve the mystery
and yet make that New York artist
a prevaricator afterward."
Mr.. Moreley bears all the good looks
and that stately and dignihed appear
ance that the New York critic says are
exclusively Mr.. Taft's, and their re-
markable likeness is accumulated by the
fact tina they hit the scale at the same
figure and are OF the same height.

FREED OF
SEVEN COUNTS IN
LAST INDICTMENT
Court Holds That Only Part of
Last True Bill of Grand
Jury Is Good.

NEW YORK, April 25.-Seven of the
fourteen counts in the Indictment
found against f. Augustus Heinze last
month in connection with his handling
of the Mercantile National Banks
funds while he was its president were
dismissed by Judge Hough in the Uni
ted States Circuit Court here today.
Judge Hough sustained the remaining
seven counts.
The Indictment was included in a
consolidated Indictment on which
heinze's case was called to trial to-
day. A number of counts in various
indictments against him have been
previously dismissed, but two other
indictments still held good. One was
found in January, 1908, containing hf-
teen count for overcertifcation and
fifteen for interpolation; and another
in May. 1909, containing one count for
misapplication.
The last, or 1910 indictment, was at
once attacked by Heinze when his
case was called today. The panel of
jurymen which had been summoned
was excused and the court heard argu-
ments on the motion to dismiss. 1t
was urged that the indictment was
bare Of statements Of fact showing
the allegations of criminality In con
nection with pans to Otte Heinz Il
Co. and to himself, as charged in the
last Indictment.
Judge Hough in dismissing seven
counts in the 1910 indictment, said the
ground that they covered was essen
TALLY the same as that covered by the
seven Others which he sustained.
