Chicago, Oct. 26. The disposition of
the estimated $60,000,000 left by the lato
George M. Pullman will not be known
with certainty for at least another day.
Mr. Lincoln said there were a great
number of public bequests, but refused
to give them out. Neither ot the ex

deny the statement that Mr. Pullman
had disinherited his two sons. The

Mr. Lincoln said: "Mr. Pullman's

many large bequests to public and
charitable Institutions. It will be filed
In the probate court at the earliest pos

Hobbed or Over $00,000 by Frandu
iilnir creek Nation Warrants.
Washington, Oct. 16. Over 190,000 of
alleged fraudulent warrants on the
fnlted State treasury on ihe account
of the Creek Indian nation, In Indian
Territory, have been discovered by gov
ernment authorities. The alleged fraud
was perpetrated in connection with the
payment ot the Creek Indian nation
debts, and only the barest details have
reached here. Congress, by a recent
enactment, authorized the liquidation
of Indebtedness of the Creeks, amount
ing to $$S3,000, Incurred by the Indians
for various purposes. The amount ap
propriated was to bo paid out of the
United States treasury and deducted
from the large funds of that tribe now
In the treasury for their benefit. The
work of paying off was begun months
ago, but when the last warrants were
presented It was found that the amount
paid, Instead ot $853,000, as authorized,
had reached $362,000. Special Agents
W. II. Zeverly and Itoss have discov
ered that over $90,000 worth of the war
rants were fraudulent. Supplementing
this Is the fact that one of those Impli
cated made a confession yesterday. The
matter promises to prove a great sen
satlbn In the territory. It Is said an
old chief of the Creeks and an official
In the employ of that tribe are among
those Involved In the affair.

From the Allentown Chronicle.
Some of the superservicenble friends
of Dr. Swallow, the Prohibition candi
date for state treasurer, would have It
appear that he monopolizes about all
the virtues, while those not of his po
litical views are people of doubtful
standing in the community. Dr. Swal
low mny mean well; some people doubt
It, and tho nature of some of his har
angues give them ample warrants for
doubts. But the purpose of this ortlcle
Is not to deal with Dr. Swallow. Thr
people of this state will attend to that
In due season.
It Is regarding another gentleman
that this article treats, and the corre
spondence below explains Itself. Tho
first letter was written by a well known
citizen of Allentown, who la a member

My Dear Brother: Yours received,
making inquiry concerning Hon. James
S. Beacom, candidate for state treas
urer In Pennsylvania. In answer to
your question, "Is he a straight, hon
est, true Christian man," would say
most emphatically, "Yes!" Further,
you desire to know of his antecedents
and church connection. Would say he
Is the son of an honored minister of the
Pittsburg conference; is a member of
the M. E. church In Greensburg, Pa.,
and also an ofllclal member of that
church. I meet him at every session of
the quarterly conference. He Is liberal
and foremost In all the enterprises ot
that church. He Is trusted and honored
and beloved In this section of the
country, and his character Is above re
proach. .Yours, W. P. TURNER,

WHO MR. BEACOM IS.
James S. Beacom, ot Greensburg, the
nominee for state treasurer, was born
In Westmoreland county, Dec. 9, 1853.
He Is a son of Rev. Dr. H. C. Beacom,
a Methodist Episcopal minister. Mr.
Beacom was graduated from Washing
ton and Jefferson college In 1880. After
leaving college he was principal of the
Blalrsvllle academy, and while there
waB the editor and proprietor of the
Blalrsvllle Enterprise, a Republican
Journal. He continued In his position
until 1884. While acting as student and
editor he pursued a course of study in
law and was admitted to the bar of
Westmoreland county In January, 1884.
Since his admission to the bar he has
given his whole .lime and attention to
his profession, and Is now one of the
leading and most active members of
a bar which ranks among the very best
in the state.
He was elected a member of the
house of representatives in November,
18S6. He was a candidate for con
gressmnn-at-large at the state conven
tion of 1806, but In the Interest of party
harmony retired and allowed the noml
nation of Samuel A. Davenport, of
Erie, to be unanimous. He was dele
gate-at-large to the national Republi
can convention, which met In St. Louis
in June, 1896. He Is a good lawyer and
has a large and lucrative practice.
The bugbear which was used to elect
Grover Cleveland, and give us the
sweating tariff under which we have
groaned and travelled for four year.t,

hanced In price by the duty on tin

argument years ago In the manufac
ture of steel rails. In which our expert

SUING FPU A FORTUNE.
A Cnso InvolvlJifr 3,000,000 Worth
flritftilway Stock. , ;
New Yofjc, Oct. !. According td a
sdfnmtfns And complaint filed In the
county clerk's office, Charles Aufftln
IKttes claims he has been defrauded of
$1009,000 worth of stock of the General
Electric Hallway company, of Chicago,
and he names the members of the firm
of J. Piarpont Morgan & Co. ns de
fendants In the suit to recover It, the
other defendants being Lucius Clark,
A. G. Wheeler and Perry A. Hull, of
Chicago.
Bates alleges that the General Elec
tric Railway company organized with
a capital of $6,000,000 In shares valued
at $100 each for the purpose of oper
ating an electric railway In Chicago,
and that In November, 1895. he pur
chased 20,000 shares of the stock of the
road, which he says was not then in
progress of construction, but Its stock,
he declares, was and Is Very valuable.
Bates says that Clark represented to
him (Bates) that in order to success
fully oarry out the objects for Which
the corporation was created It was
necessary to have n controlling Inter
est In the stock placed temporarily In
the hands of one person.
Bates says he turned over to Clark
his 20,000 shares on Clark's promise to
return them as soon as the objects he
represented were accomplished, but
that he had repeatedly tried In vain to
get Clark to return the stock.
Bates says 'he then discovered that
Clark transferred the stock to Hull,
that the latter transfened It to a man
named Stinson, who In turn transferred
It either to J. Plerpont Morgan or to
J. Plerpont Morgan & Co., who. Bates
says, now have It In their possession.
