ASK PROOF OF
BUYING GOODS
BEFORE MAR, |

Washington. April 9.-American mer-
chants and importers have been invited
by the state department in circular
letter made public tonight to send in
formation for submission to the British
embassy proofs that goods purchased in
Germany and now in transit or awaiting
shipment We're paid for before March

ances that on prediction of such proof
goods will not be interfered with by the
allied warships. Robert F. Rose and
William Il. Flemminy, foreign trade ad-
visers of the department are handling
this business. There are acting unoffi-
cially since they cannot commit the
government to any recognition of the
legality Of the blockade order-in- council.

merchandise including The dyestuffs for
lack of which American textile factories
arc on the point of shutting down will
be released for shipment as the proofs
of their purpose before March are

BOGUS CHECK MAN
STILL OPERATING
VISITS AUGUSTA
Passes a Check Wednesday on
PurintOn Bros Co. and Makes
SIP by Transaction-Calls on
Stone & Cooper Coal Co.

Although three weeks have now
elapsed since the elusive John E. Muir
ray" as he signs himself, began pass
ing worthless checks in kennebec coun-
ty and also in other counties in this Sec
ton of the State, it would seem that,
from the fact that he is still conducting
a successful campaign along that par
ticular line of crookedness, that there is
general laxity of effort on the part of
those interested to stop his career.
That he is still doing business is
proven by the fact that no later than
Wednesday of this week he was operat-
ing In Augusta and succeeded in adding
at least So to his cash capital. This
was done by the same simple and easy
method which he is alleged to have EN-.
ployed in other places in this vicinity;
namely, Hallowell and Gardiner, only
the purchases made in those places were
of different nature.
wednesday he was out to purchase
coal and visited two places-the Purinton
Bros. Co. and the Stone & Cooper Coal
Co. On his visit to the former office
he ordered ton of coal sent an address
on Mt. Vernon avenue. in payment fo-
Pies National Bank of Waterville drawn
in favor of John L. Murray and signed
by the Keyes Fibre Co. OF Fairfield. The
check was for $50 and the price Of the
coal IS. and after being handed sl2 in
cash, the amount due him, he left the
office. The coal was delivered as per or
der. but as no place was found to answer
the description given by the buyer the
coal was hauled back to the sheds. The
sequel of the transaction came when on
Friday the Purinton Bros. Co. was notl-
fed that the check was a poor one
