SEARCH ON FOR FORGERs
OF ARMY PAY VOUCHERS

Investigations are being made by
the Treasury and War departments of
the theft, forgery and fraudulent CASH
ing Of Army pay vouchers That
thirty-seven of these vouchers had
been stolen from Camp Lee, Peters
burg. Va. and forged, was discovered
when several of them came through a
Washington bank for collection from
the United States Treasury, and were
declared forgeries by the Treasury, on
which they were drawn.
The fact that one check came from
bank in Petersburg and another from
a bank in South Carolina shows that
the person who took the pay vouch-
ers is making a tour of the Army
camp communities 1t is said that in
proof of his identity he showed
watch carrying a monogram CORE
spending to the name of the soldier to
whom the voucher had been made out
The Treasury Department through it's
own secret service is making an investi-
cation. The Quartermaster Corps of the
Army also has started search. Col T.
l.. Smith, in charge of the finance office
of the depot quartermaster here, said
also that they would look carefully into
the theft. All of these vouchers are
supposed to be kept under lock and key
and carefully guarded, said Col. Smith
1t was said by officials of the War and
Treasury Departments and by bank Off
GERS that people should exercise due pre-
as the fact that they are drawn on the

WALL STREET MARKET
VERY SLOW AND RAGGED

NEW YORK, November 13.-Extreme
du1lness and more or less unsteadiness
in values featured today's session OF
the exchange.
The news over night was not DIS
couraging, but there were features In
the foreign situation that caused un-
easiness.
At the immediate opening the list
showed more or less positive weakness
and lower prices were scored. but before
the end of the first hour there was a
fairly good rally, evidently better sus-
tanned in the rails, than in the indus
trials. although both Canadian Pacific
and st. Paul made new lows in the ini-
tial trading, the former going OH to
1915 and the latter to 36, low marks.
Steel common opened at 93h and then
started on the down grade. stopping at
go, where it remained during the great
er part of the session, with 4 to u OF
a point fluctuations.
Marines, especially Atlantic, Gulf and
West Indies, were strong, and the lat
ter stock held part of its gain.
Industrial List Slow.
After the first hour the entire in
dustrial list became extremely slow and
the rails were not much better, al
though St. Paul and Union Pacific re-
gained their losses and Baltimore and
Ohio moved back from So to 5aA.
1t was one of the slowest sessions
the market has witnessed for weeks
past.
Aho,,+ NAM Comedian Pacific made
new low at 1909 and the list weakened
a little, and in the second hour Of the
afternoon a dull, dragging. practically
unchanged market prevailed.
