sized check made out TO Mrs. Duncan
on United Fruit company's blank. anu
would mall In care of the cold storage
people. Several days afterwards MrS.
Duncan would appear Her manner anu
appearance being that Of the 10Th cen
fury business woman. she would pin 'ne
cold storage people down to the lowest
figure and then sign the contract.
With the contract signed. the storage
people would either cash her check OF
get some influential business man or
bank to do so. Once the money was
secured that would be the last seen Oh
her. The next thing the storage peop'e
knew was that the check was VOID anu
would hear In day or two that .ne
same game was being worked In other
towns or cities.
The Marmon Motor Car people from
whom were secured. in some as yet UNI
known manner. blank checks. were also
MIXED. 1t is alleged. by the Duncans.
How much they have secured from THIS
concern there is no way of ascertaining
at present.
Before striking the South the couple
worked from Oakland, Cal, down into
Phoenix, Ariz, did an excellent business
there and passed from that state into
Texas, where they again operated They
then came to Syracuse, N. Y, froni there
shot back to the cotton belt. and mace
their record cleanup of over $4,000.
Seeming danger from energetic detec-
tives and having plenty Of money to
enable them to travel extensively, the
duo took a limited to quiet Manchester.
N. H., only to there feel SO insecure that
safe haven was sought In this city.
1t was in the southern city that a
postofice inspector co-operated with the
p.s.I. H-A- ftr
valuable evidence and traceable clues that
finally brought the pair to their present
predicament. The inspector was brought
into the case as the scheme which the
Duncans operated was in direct violation
of the laws regarding the use Of malls
for fraudulent purposes. 1t was on the
charge of this postoffice inspector In
Georgia that the warrant for the ar
rest was issued. The postofiice inspector
also assisted the Pinkerton men by
securing a photograph of the woman In
the case. This was forwarded from
place to place. 1t was by means OF this
photograph that the pair were identified
by a detective shortly after their arrival
at the Hotel Vermont.
The detectives who were in this city.
two at the New Sherwood and one at
the Hotel Vermont for the past three
days. were under the personal direction
of Harry Murray. assistant superintend.
ent of the Pinkerton National Detective
association. who made hfs headquarters
at the New Sherwood. The unerring
instinct and exceeding clever methods
Of deduction and sleuthing of this ASSOC
citation Is to be highly commended for
the service rendered.
The couple have made deposits of
money at the Merchants National bank
while in this city and Duncan was pos
sessed Of perhaps SIS when arrested. The
next move in their case will not be
known until the arrival in this city of
the sheriff from Atlanta, bearing requsi-
ton papers for the return of the couple
| to that city for trial. The sheriff
papers will charge forgery and felony
| against the couple.

Richold and Mrs. II. c. Humphrey. worked
diligently yesterday morning and filled
more than 30 baskets. In the basket which
was going to the home OF some large fam
lily instead Of a fowl large piece of beef,
lamb or pork was substituted, making
more than chicken would. To the aged.
sick or inhrm, Jellies, apples, oranges
and grapes were generously distributed
and as far as the committee knew every
family was supplied. the greater number
Of their baskets going to persons outside
the congregation.

100000 FIRE.
Immense Gymnasium at PIattsbursh
Training Camp Entirely Destroyed.

Training Camp Entirely DESTROYED.
Damage amounting to approximately
100000 was done Wednesday morning
when fire RACED the immense gymnasium,
the largest connected with any of the
army posts Of the country. at the United
States training camp reservation at Platts-
burgh. N. Y.
Just how the fire occurred could not be
asccrtained. but 1t was discovered shortly
before noon. Lieutenant Fulcher Of the
Second cavalry with a detail of several
Of the men was working In the building
at the time checking up accounts which
came under his Jurisdiction.
They had been at work but few
minutes when the entire west end of the
main floor of the building burst into
flames. and they were forced to flee for
their lives, leaving behind them reguia-
ton army overcoats which they had DOTTED
when they had started their work.
The flames spread with great rapidity.
The Post fire dedepartfhent responded to
bugle calls and shortly after their ar
rival the Plattsburgh city department
came on the scene. The combined efforts
OF both departments were futile to stay
the progress of the wnd-fanned flames.
In less than 10 minutes after the fire
was discovered the entire slate roof fell
In. with crash that was heard for a
considerable distance. An hour later the
north and south walls toppled over. Late
in the afternoon, Colonel Wolf ordered the
east and west walls Of the gymnasium
RACED.
During the period Of the last camp the
main floor Of the gymnasium had been
used as theatre. and several New York
companies had given entertainments there
The seating capacity was $500 persons. The
building also contained bowling alleys
! and inside target range as we'll as the post
exchange.
An investigation has been ordered by
the authorities.
