Especial to The Gate City.]
HAMILTON. ILL.,, Feb. S.-The fake
naval officer who passed worthless
checks on MP. L. T. Wetzel Of this
city, and in Keokuk, some months ago,
has been arrested in Chattanooga. and
held there to await disposition of the
federal authorities, which have been
tracing him all over the country.
Davidsons real name is said to
be Ralph Blackburn and he has rel
attves in Quincy. In carrying on his
fraudulent check passing. he assumes
aliases. At the time of his arrest In
Chattanooga some weeks ago, he was
travelling under the name Of G. A.
Brown. His game was to impersonate
an officer OF the United States navy
and pass bogus check. Some weeks
ago Davidson victimized Mr.. Wetzel
of this city, and the Schenk dry goods
store OF Keokuk. Leaving here, it Is
thought he went south and was nab
bed in the Tennessee city. On hearing
that the Chattanooga police held /
man for operating as did Davidson,
Mr.. Wetzel addressed the chief Of po-
lice of that city and received the fol-
lowing reply:
Chattanooga, Tenn, Feb. 4, 1916.
L.. F. WetZel,
Hamilton, ILL.,
Dear Sir: Complying with your
request Of the End inst. I am giving
you a description of C. A. Brown,
alias Fred Leslie, alias captain Sell
lers, U. s. A. .'
Fred Leslie, alias Brown, ETC., SO
years old, feet, 91s inches; weight,
1877 pounds; fair complexion; hair,
light chestnut; eyes, azure; clean
shaver; we'll built; nose has been
broken" 49,.
This man Is being held here by the
federal authorities awaiting trial.
He was only arrested by officers OF
this department at the instance of the
federal authorities. He Is wanted all
over the country and no doubt he is
the man you are looking for. He gave
his home as Quincy, H., and is wanted
in several different points In your
state as we'll as many other places in
ether states.
Very respectfully,
P. P. BASS,
Chief of Detectives.
From the above it looks as If David
son, who swindled Wetzel and the
Schenk people, is the man now under
arrest at Chattanooga.

Evening Post.l
NEW YORK, Feb. S.-After a day
of apathetic movements with prices
gravitating to a lower level in the
more active stock, a slight demon.
stration of recovery occurred in the
closing hour. 1t accompanied news
from Washington that the cabinet
had in principle accepted the German
governments disayowal of the Lusi'
tania affair and without insisting that
Berlin explicitly admit that the sink.
ing of the vessel and the drowning
of it's passengers illegal
To what extent the people of either
country will be satisfied by this con-
ditional apology Wall street itself did
not pretend to say. The recovery of
the stock exchange was certainly not
and it affected only a few
of the highly speculative shares
Taken all together, the days mar
ket was dull and meaningless, and
on a scale Of activity reduced to the
smallest thus far in the year.
There was little routine news. A
further sharp advance in Berlin ex-
change bringing the rate to the high
est figure since January IA was again
ascribed by Wall street to the regu-
latory provisions of the German move
ment and reichs bank.

NEW YORK. May 5-Art in gar
ret except at meal times, is not such
hardship, but art on the roof Of the
FlatirOn building is something else.
Those who were in that altItudinous
part OF Manhattan last week saw
Miss Ruth Young pose for the upllft.
The wind whipped its cruel lashes
across the lower tip OF the isle, but
Miss Young was not piker. She
appeared on the roof of the F1atirOn
in a costume that would have made
the average window draperies look
like the side OF the Rock OF Glbral-
ter. 1t was Just filmy lace and that
was all.
The OCCASION for all these untoward
incindents was the first open air
sketchlng lesson OF the season given
to tho pupils OF the Associated Art
Studios. Also It is breezed about
that Miss Young Is seeking a stage
engagement.
About twenty pupils climbed the
fire escape to their lofty sketching
location and the motion picture men
were on hand also while the young
lady assumed all sorts OF poses. She
has been n model in the studios Of
such artists as Coles Phillips. Henry
HUT and Charles Dana Gibson.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox asks in the
Evening Journal: What Is your an

about two hundred pounds and six

Broadway is the place to four

outdoor sport. Along the Times
Square district the other afternoon,
the chronicler OF these attempted
pleasantries saw man wearing a
sombrero hat, Norfolk coat, pair
OF riding breeches, white putties and
a monocle.
When he saw the writer he flicked
the monocle out OF his eye and
showed curious interest in nothing Mt
all in the clouds. He knew that he
was recognized. He came from Gin
