Arrest of Ex-Representative Wim. B. Stokes, The Government Defranded of 868,100 How It Was Done. William B. Stokes, formerly a representative in Congress from Tennessee, and at present a Sa- pervitor of Internal Revenue in that State, is the Ex-M. C. who was referred to in Tax Stax of yesterday as being suspected of complicity in the bounty frauds on the government, of which We published the first account. Mr. Stokes ar- rived in this city yesterday afternoon, by the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, and was met by ty Marshal Phillips, with a warrant for his arrest, and immediately escorted to the office of Johnson, United States Com- missior hom the warrant was issued. Mr. the Cc two since to re immediately tu his office, and answered that he expected to arrive at 10 o'clock a. m. yesterday. Mr. Phillips anxiously awaited that irain; but was disappointed in not finding his manon board. The other trains were, however, watched, and the train due about 34 o'clock brought the unsuspecting Stokes to the city, he having been delayed by missing a con- necti He was the first man to leave the train, and Mr. Phillips immediately walked upto hi and after pagging the usual salutations informed him that be was under arrest. Mr. Stokes seemed greatly surprised, but accompanied Mr. Phillips to the office of Commissioner Johnson and in- formed that official that he would waive an examination, and inquired the amount of bail. Mr. Johnson stated that the sum of © would be required, and Mr. Phillips went with his prisoner to the office of Mr. e. J. Mei Clerk of the Court. In a short time that gentie- man returned with them, and entered on the bend in the amount named, and Mr. Stokes was released. The charge in the warrant is, defrauding the government of the sum of $64,400, and, It is alleged, through claims of Capt: Beatty's com. pany of mounted infantry, which served or pre tended to serve in Tennessee during the war. [t appears that under a resolution of Congress, pated in July, 1570, an appropriation was made to pas these soldiers. It is alleged that this res. Glution was engineered trough the House and Senate by Mz. Stokes, and mitted to him, and that notwithstanding the fact that claim agents here were emploved, the cer- | tificates were issued to Mr. Stokes—those for the privates for $1,060.40 cach, and those for the offi- cers for from 52,40 to $3,000 each—the sum total being somewhere in the neighborhood of | 120 000. It isnow asserted that, although certificates were issued to a full company of mounted in- famry, there never was in the company the number of men claimed to be in it—1%3—and | that officers of the government who have been to Tennessee have ascertained that the full num- ber of men, including officers, was 35, and con- sequently there were over 65 names Improperly on the roils, and fraudulent claims were thus allowed for $68,400. Mr. Stokes appeared somewhat excited while under arrest, having been taken y by sur- Prise, and,stated that it had he been apprized that there wat anything wrong in the ms he would bave been here since. Victor G. Powell, a clerk in the Second Audi- tor’s office, was arrested last Tuesday evening for bis alleged complicity in these frauds, as stated in Tux Star of last evening. It is’ as- serted that there are several other persons fm- plicated in the frauds, and that there are other elaims undergoing investigation which may lead to the discovery of additional frauds in other cases.
