Berlin. Feb. 2T.--J. Pierpont Nor
gan. according 10 dispatch from
Cairo published here today, has been
cleyerly swindled out OF $4,000 on
a purchase OF Coptic manuscripts. The
manuscripts have long been ON the
market at less than a tenth OF the
price received without finding a pur-
chaser They we're then acquired
very cheap by an astute dealer, who
laid q scheme Tor a profitable deal.
With the aid Of an Egyptian official
a document was forged purporting TO
show that the Egyptian government
had offered $4,000 for the collection.
Then the owner went 20 Paris and
procured a similar document Armed
with these weapons the man APP
preached Morgan's agent and made
tho deal
When the Egyptian government re-
ceived information regarding tho
forgery the official implicated was dis
missed.
DiTector Maspere OF the Egyptian
museums says that although the col
lection bought by Morgan Is genuine
Il Is really OF little value and the
price paid was preposterously high.

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER n. 1872,
The Convicted Gunmen.

The result of the trial of the four
New York "gunmen" convicted of first
degree murder or the charge of killing
the gambler, Rosenthal, following the
conviction of Police Lieutenant Beck
er for instigating the crime, is an ex-
traordinary outcome of one of the
most important criminal cases of mod
ern times. 1t was almost too much to
hope that after the frequent miscar-
riageS, of justice in sensational murder
cases, a jury and court, after a
speedy, dignifed trial, would reach a
conclusion so entirely satisfying to pub
lie order and safety.
The crime is too horrifying. also still
too fresh in our memories, to need a
detailed repetition Becker, peace
officer employed these gunmen to shoot
Rosenthal down. because he feared that
the latter would make important dis
closures to the district attorney rela-
tive to an alleged partnership between
part of the police-headcd by Becker
and the criminal element of New
York in order to levy blackmail from
the gamblers. The trial disclosed in
fanny and menace to life in the chief
city of the land and all utter disregard
of the safeguards of the law.
The feeling will be general among
the public that the cause of law and
order has triumphed and that a strict
administration of the statutes is to be
rehabilitated. The opinion had been
expressed-and was gaining ground
that the courts of New York were
feeble and inefficient. That, as has been
proven, fortunately for the citizens OF
that great center. i, not true A
courageous district attorney and a
firm. intelligent, strong judge have
weathered the crisis. We congratulate
them and New York.
