The Washington herald., 1913-10-23

Baseball men are wondering who the
joke will be on il Dode Criss, the big
pitcher who was with the Browns sew
eral years ago, and who was with Hous-
ton this season in the Texas League,
turned out TO be a wonder for the New
York Yankees. There are many who
think that it is likely to happen. We
know one thing about Crisss and that Is
he can hit.

Tossing Coins 50, 500.

New York, March 13.-In the SIM
pie game of coin tossing for ''heads
or tails" Dr.. Matthew S. Borden, a
New York physician, son of the late
NJ. c.. d. Borden, former owner Of
the large Borden cotton factories at
Fall River, Mass, ran up a debt Of
$4,000, it is alleged in a suit which
has been begun here for payment OF
a promissory note for that amount.
DR.. Borden's answer to the suit al
leges that two casual acquaintance
induced him to toss coins for money
after they had given him something
to drink, which so influenced him
that he did not know what he was
doing. He was told he had lost $2,-
$50 and induced to sign a paper,
which he alleges he did not know
was a promissory note, and he asserts
that the whole affair was a conspir-
acy. The note fell into the hands OF
a nan who brought suit. Dr.. Borden
contends that as 1t was for a gam
bling debt the note has no value.

PASSENGERS LYNCH HAoKMAN ?
Police Think Negro Drove His Stay
ers TO Scene of Killing.

Albany, Ga, March ga coro-
ner's jury which worked late into the
night was unable to solve the mys-
terry surrounding the death of Will
Washington, a well-known negro
hackman, whose body was found be-
side the Blue Spring road about 8
O'Clock. There were W bullet
rope was tightly twisted about his
neck. The bullets, were of 32 and
3S calibre.
1T is believed hat Washington rode
to his death in his own hack. 1t is
the theory of the officers that some
act of his caused several white men
to determine that he should be put
to death, and that they entered his
hack and were driven across the
river without letting him suspect
their intentions.
The Negroes body was found by
the roadside only a few hundred
yards from the river bridge. 1t is
believed that he was strangled and
shot to death in the hack, his body
then being pitched out and the horse
left to return to the city alone. Some
unidentified white men we're seen to
enter the hack a little earlier in the
evening, and they were driven in the
direction Of the river.
The officers appear to be of the
opinion that it was a caSe Of lynch
ing, in which two, or possibly three,
men took part, The coroner's jury
verdict stated that the slayers were
unknown.

BIGGEST COUNT IN rusToRY
To Begin April 4, When Burke Takes
U. S. Treasurer's Oath.

Washington, March %. The
greatest count of money and securi-
ties in the history of the world will
begin at the treasury department on
| April l, when John Burke, former
Governor of North Dakota, takes the
oath Of Office as Treasurer OF the Uni
ted States, succeeding Carmi a.
Thompson.
To safeguard the nations wcnlth
Uncle Sam requires that the retiring
t~reasurer's ro"ord of the transfer Of
funds be verified by a count of the
notes, coin and securities in the
treasury. Secretary McAdOo VIII op-
point a committee to take charge of
the vaults and each vault and safe
will be sealed or April l i'm prepara-
ton for the count. Only enough
money to keep the wheels OF govern
ment revolving will be laid aside for
daily use while the counting is in
progress.
1t generally requires from two 10
five months to make tn count. A
government mathematical has lig-
ured out that it would take one per-
Sol 800 years to verify Mr.. Thump-
sons records. Ordinaril. every uufd,
bond and other security IS counted.
Unless a shortage or error Is disCoV+
cred the gold and silver, stored IN
bags containing $1,000 each, usually
is weighed, a test bag being BALANCED
against all others for yeTificarion.
Armed guards stand owe che count
ers and workmen to protect them
from interference.
Losses seldom have been found IN
these counts. When the TREASURED
was changed some years ago $500
was stolen during the Official count.
A laborer engaged to LIT the heavy
bags Of coin substituted leadep disks
for silver dollars in several bags,
necessitating a five months count OF
every dollar Of the Sill, 100000 in
the big silver vault. Tho laborer
IA convicted of the thctt and the
retiring treasurer relieved by COu-
loss.
When Carmi ThomDsou succeeded
Lea McClung as treasure ne rcceiyt
ed over $1,4O0, 900 900 He mast
account for every cent Of that
amount, plus the MILL nAs he has
since received, minus eXDcDditUTeS.
While the treasurer o. the United
States handles no money personality
he is the only bonded Official IN hib
office. His $150,00O bond coY,rb

years ~treasurers have urged Congress-
to order the bonding o. the emf
ployees who actually handle the SOL
