S. Morgan & Co. is- sued from their ¢ity office late last night the following official state- ment: “Two bills for 11,500 pounds ($57,500) each purporting to be drawn by M. DeBosdari and to have been accepted by J. Pierpont Mor- gan, were presented last week by a bank to J. S. Morgan & Co. for pay- ment which has been refused as the acceptances were forgeries. It is feared that other documents pur- porting to be signed by Mr. Morgan are being, or have been, negotiated or dealt with in London or elsewhere which are also forgeries.” The circulation of this forged paper accounts for the strange reports widely circulated in the city some months ago concerning J. Pierpont Morgan's credit. It is surprising that these stories never reached the ears of his partners here, as they were matter of common pihoncclindnemchs gossip on the Stock Exchange and in Jefferson City Tribune: The agita-| financial circles, but owing to the fact tion of capital removal by the legis-|that Mr. Morgan’s London house lature has a side which to the people] was ignorant of the rumors, the for of Jefferson City is not wholly hu-|ger was enabled to greatly extend Tons of Material Were Brought Into This Country at New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore. Henry L. Dawes of Maseachusette. This choice is due to the insistence of Chester I. Long, the newly elected - senator from Kaneas. There was a senatorial deadlock in Kansas, with Messrs. Long, Stanley and Kepresentative Curtis as the leading candidates. Mr. Stanley withdrew and all of his supporters went to Mr. Long, giving him his nomination. The Massachusetts senators want- ed the president to appoint a man from their state, but he permitted Mr. Long to fill the office. Mr. Long was conspicuous as a member of the ways and means committeein urging Cuban reciprocity, and the appoint- ment indicates that the President rewarded him for his loyalty. The position on the commission pays $5,000. It isexpected the com- mission, as now constituted, will wind up the affairs of the Indian Territory and prepare it for statehood. Reighter. The Statue part of the monument represents Mr. Reighter as he was attired when stricken dead by heart disease sbmé time ago. Mr: Reighter Was a ditch contrac- tor, and very prominent in his local- ity. It- was on a rainy day that death came, and he was well prepar- ed for the weather. He was wearing a broad brimmed hat, a mackintosh over his suit of clothes, and his’ trouser legs were in his rubber boots. . The members of the family, wishing to remember him ae he looked when last he bade them good-by, employ- eda man about the same elze and build as Mr. Reighter to have his photograph taken in the clothes last worn by the deceased, and when he had carried out this idea they replac- ed the head on the photograph with the head of a likeness of Mr. Reighter, A Wise Man taken several. weeks before he died This picture was sent to a sculptor K shows his superiority over the in Italy, with a request that a life man who is not wise, by what he sized statue be made from itin Italian says an d what he leaves unsai d. marble.

During last De- cember alone nearly 100,000 tons of iron and steel material were brought in through the ports of New York, Baltimore and Philadelphia. Balti- more headed the list with an importa- tion of 43,112 tons, while Philadelphia followed closely with 31,215 tons, New York received 23,446 tons. The cargoes were made up principal- ly of pig iron, structural iron, plate . bars, steel rails, billets and beams, scrap iron and steel, railroad construc- tion material, wire rods and iron rails, From British ports 55,430 tons of pig iron were brought here, while con- tinental Europe shipped 4,875 tons and Nova Scotia 11,336 tons, The steel billets came chiefly from Sydney and Cape Breton, and the bulk of the old iron and steel shipments were from Hamburg, Bahia, Stettin and Constantinople. The structural steel and rails were mainly from Rot- terdam, Antwerp and Hamburg. During the month nearly 126,000 tons of iron ore, iron pyrites and man- ganese ores were imported here, This y i everal seri i erations.. is an increase of more than 100 per is } noe ¥ } pais ; pear enalichegon oath Le i egsy ~~ cent over the shar importation dur-| this “ ha ge : superiority over common soda pens es Prej ng November, jienna, February 13.—Die Volke- * < be understood and acted upon A Prejudice Against Women. sciae Seeeatn hee the Seok ahaeincnh crackers in a paper bag, by what promptly, or there may be trouble Washington, Feb, 13.—‘Unele SKELETON IS UNEARTHED, sure enough.

The site of the hall of records and of the county court house was occu- Pied from 1810 to 1859 by a pleasure resort known as the Military Garden, and the large beer hall was probably built on the grave, AIM WAS TOO GOOD.
