ALLEGED CHIEF OF BILL OF LADING FoRGERS CAUGHT IN
 NEW YORK.
FROM POVERTY TO INFLUENCE
U. s. Department of Justice Operatives Bare Huge Fraud on Greek Banks Netting S250,oo0
 Month.

New York-George D. PterioSis, g, who is said by agents of the Depart ment of Justice to have been the mas- ter mind in bill of lading forgery scheme that netted at least $250,000 in month. was arrested on the White Star line pier shortly after the liner Adratic docked.
 The warrant on which agents ar- rested him was under a secret indict- ment handed down by a federal grand fury September 8 It charged that he had "willfully, fraudulently and unlaw- fully" forged and raised bills of lading.
 As soon as he was in custody Special Agents Kennedy, Gogarty and Weiss man arrested three other men on simi- lar charges. The three were George Brouzos, 34. of Brooklyn, and A. J.. Dritsas, 20, and Thomas Thomas, 2S, of New York City.
 Detective Tells Story.
 Acting Division Superintendent R. NJ Reedy of the local Bureau of In- vestigation of the Department of Jus tice. who made public the amazing tale of how. as is charged, youthful Pteriotis rose from poverty to afflu- ence within q few days, and of the equally interesting method by which he was induced to return to the United States, said that agents were looking for three other men, for whom war rants also have been issued upon se- cret indictments. Banking institutions that advanced cash to Pterietis, ac- cOrding to the agents, are the Guaran- ty Trust Company. the Irving National Bank. the Mechanics and Metals Ma. tonal Bank. the American Express Company and the National City Bank.
 Loaned Money on Forgeries.
 He took to them the forged bills of lading. according 10 the charge, and they loaned him money on them, as is customary in bona tide commercial transactions of the sort. on the strength of letters of credit from banks in Greece.
 Agents of the Department of Justice and representatives of the New York banking institutions said the banks here would lose nothing by the trans- actions. They said the loss would be upon the Greek banks that sent the letters of credit.
 Assistant United States Attorney Kelly, however, who is in charge of the prosecution of the defendants for the government, said that he believed law suits between the banks might ensue. He was not so sure that the institu- tions in Greece would take the whole loss without murmur.

ALBANY, Sept 12.-Political inter

is centered mainly in the primary issue
between Judge William f. Wollard,
Independent Republican candidate for
the Congress ional nomination from
the Goth District, and Judge Ed
ward J. Halter, the organization candi-

prove the case it may mean the Albany

Of the Republican party at the primary
election Tuesday with virtually no OPP
position. The loea: organization, how
ever, has been so busy with q stiff fight
within Its own ranks that little at
tcntion has been paid to the state
candidates. Judge Miller and the men
named with him meet the approval of
the rank and file of the party and are
certain of big vote.
The Democratic slate will go througl
without a hitch. While Mayor Lunn
has friends, they are not, as rule, of
the enrolled kind eud he will get few
votes in the r~ire~ie@. The organiza-
ton here is saf,S f'.r Walker, and up
to date there has seen no talk or sign
of any work to defeat him.
The local Republican fight involves
State Senator, District Attorney and
Sheriff, and is being bitterly fought.
The party has been split wide open,
with former Senator Georgo i. Well
ington leading the Independents and
State Committeeman c. Y. Collins COM
manding the organizat:Or forces. The
result will be close. The odds favor
the Organization, with the possibility
that one or two breaks may be made
in its ticket.

Chenaung " omen to Fight
WQds1uOrth in Primaries
Republican Organization Is for
the Regular Candidates, but
Mem Voters OppOse Senator

Especial Dispatch to Inc Irloune.)
EIMIRA, N. Y, Sept. 1.-THE Re-
publican organization in Chemung
County. headed by State Senator Sey-
mour Lowman, will support United
States Senator Wadsworth, Nathan l..
Miller and the other regular candidates
on Primary Day. But this does not
mean that Wadsworth, in particular,
will be assured of the majority vote,
due to an active campaign against the
Senator by the women who are promi-
nent in local politics.
Immediately after the Saratoga
Eanizcd an active campaign against the
denomination of Senator Wadsworth
and formed flying squadron of
speakers who have addressed the
women of the towns and villages, urg-
ing them to 60 to the polls and vote
against the denomination of Wads-
worth and supporting the candidacy of
Mrs. Ella Boole. The chief argument
against Senator Wadsworth is that he
is not representative of the sentiment
of this section, especially in his
stand against the prohibition and
suffrage amendments.
yin primary day the women Of
Chemung promise to show the mon
voters how determined they are by
getting out big vote against Wads-
worth, which means that the regular
organization will have to be more &C.
tive than it usually is on primary day.
A certain percentage of the women
who are active against WadswoTth, es-
reclally those of the temperance elc-
ment' Will also vote for Thompson
against Miller.
Notwithstanding the determined op-
position, Senator Lowman said to-day
that he believed Senator Wadsworth
would carry the primaries in Chemunr
County, but that it would mean hard
work on the part Of the organization.
senator Lowman expressed the opinion
that Judge Miller would also be the
local favorite.
