A WOULD-BE ROGUE CAUGHT.OTTAWA, Oct, 16.\u2014Thomas McCormick, a farmer's son, aged 20, hailing from Canuan, Russell county, drove into Ottawa with a light heart today.He came here expecting to meet an American from whom he fondly imagined he would secure a big sum of counterfeit money for a small consideration.He met instead Inspector Dan O'Leary, of the Dominion police, and is now in custody charged with feloniously offering to purchase counterfeit tokens of value.The penalty under the act passed two years ago is five years\u2019 imprisonment.Commissioner Sherwood, of the Dominion police, worked up the cuse and for some time past has been determined to make au example of one of the numerous offenders who bite at the seductive buits held out by the New York green goods men.He showed your correspondent today a list of 300 Canadians who have responded to the carefully worded circulars with which the New York crooks are flooding the country.This information reached him from Anthony Comstock, in New York.The victims include several prominent business men.Young Me- (Cormick bit at the bait like so many others; but instead of getting the counterfeit money now finds himself in a compromising position.The letter he wrote the New York green goods men was intercepted by Mr Comstock.It reads as follows: \u2014 My Dear Friend,~1 greatly regret having to send for the medicine, as I would fur rather have a personal interview; but I find that I am not uble to rnise money enough to meet you face to fuce, so I nm sending you all T can raise.I thought when I telegraphed for instructions that I would be able to raise $300, so I hope you will excuse this one error, for, believe me, I would rather invest in a large amount if I could.You will find enclosed five 10's for which you will kindly send me two 50s, five 20\u2019, twenty 10's aud twenty 5's.1 would like to have them look old; also let me know if I will follow the instructions you sent me.Will I telegraph for more instructions?Trusting you will forward without delay, 1 remain, in honor and gratitude, Tuomag Mcl'orMick, Canaan, P.O., Russell Co, Ont.Canada.Chief Sherwood thereupon wrote McCormick the following type-written letter, dating it and mailing it from New York:\u2014 New York, Oct 1, 1890.\u2014Dear Friend,\u2014You will no doubt be surprised at receiving nu acknowledgment from me of your letter and remittance of some time back; but my rensons for not sending the medicine or replying in any way were good.I got a hint that was being watched and also my mail, and I found it necessary to make myself scarce for a little while and to change my address, which for the future will be \u201cJ.G, Graham, P.O.box 65, New York,\u201d 1 huve mude up my mind to take a t-ip to Montreal and Toronto, Cunan da, leaving here on the 13th, and will mail your goods at the former place, as the risk is too great in mailing on this side.But there is no WAY 50 safe us face to face, and hand to hand, and if you can manage to meet me in Ottawa on the 14th, 1 will stop over.I have made enquiries and find that you cannot live very far from that city, and if you make a point of coming I will throw in something extra to cover your expenses.Answer this to above address as soon as possible, and il you decide to meet me you will meet me at the Windsor hotel (which I am told is n firat-cluss one) on Thursday, the 16th, where I will register us J.J.Grant, Philadelphia.Awaiting an early answer, yours in strictest confidence, To this McCormick replied as follows: \u2014 CANAAN, Oct 7.\u2014Dear Friend.~I will meet you as desired at the Windsor hotel, Ottawa, on the afternoon of the 16th.Yours in honor and friendship, THoMA8 McCoRMICK, Canaan, Ont.When McCormick went to room 72, in the Windsor, this afternoon, he told his business to Mr Grant, who was none other than Inspector O'Leary.The young farmer od- mitted the danger was great, but producing a wad snid he wanted the big counterfeit rolls instead.The inspector showed him n parcel containing counterfeitannd legal tenders, and after further parleying and after securing complete prool McCormick wns taken into custody.He completely broke down, though à few minutes before he boasted that he had travelled and could not becaught, The commissioner states that hundreds of Canadians ave daily sending money to New York green men expecting counterfeit bills of large denomination in return.RAILWAY TIMETABLE.Moutreal.leave 19Yy StConstant.23 Bt IsidoreJunct, 27 Kt liidore.a 27% St Philomene.33% Ste Martine 43% Brysou's.47) Ormstown.524 Dewittville.50% Huntingdon.84% White's .ucnees 73% Fort Covington 9 80 BombayJunct.10.0l ST Helena.10 96 MassenaSprings 10.50.HEMMINGFORD BRANCH, 23 St Isidoredc.leave 8.00.4.45 \u2026\u2026.8.84.5.05 38 Nt Michel.\u201c 87 Sherrington.40 Barrington.44 Hemmingford.\u2026 47 Province Line.50 Mooer'sJunction Arr BEAUHARNOIS BRANCH.== 34 Ste Martine .leave 8.05.40 Beauharnois.47 8t Timothé.53 Valleyfield.En bu en Bennbay Tunetion \u2026 Fort Covington.Montreal.Arrive 8.50,.HEMMINGFORD BR.Hemmingford Sherrington.St Isidore Junetion VALLEYFIELD BRANCH, Beauharnois.Rome and Watertown trains arrive at Musseun from the west at 1.05 am.12.15 p.n, and 8.35 p.m., and leave 6.55 and 11.10 a.m, und 3.20 p.m.Central Vermont train leaves Bombay Junction at 9,50 a.m,, and arrives 5,45 GET THE BEST Pt PEE SE tte FINE QUALITY AND VARIETY JEWELERY SILVERWARL Ht PLP rt SOMETHING NEW IN TABLE WARE Tea, Dessert and Table Spoons, Dinner and Dessert Forks, guaranteed to wear whiter than any other goods of the kind and at less than half the price of Silverplated ware.Art BEAUTIFUL STOCK OF PLUSH FANCY GOODS Suitable Presents for Ladies EPS rt af PHOTO FRAMES, FANCY HAIRPIN EEE Et tr Perfect fitting 8 in Gold, Silver, enuine pebble and ordinary sights and at all prices.tacles and Eyeglasses ickle and Steel frames, Spectacles und Eyeglasses neatly re- Watches and Clocks repaired promptly and warranted.W.B.SAUNDERS Opposite Post-Office, Huntingdon.ETROPELN Dnoqualled for Rlskosss sad Dosaty of Soloreg They are the ONLT DYRs that WILL NOT WASH OUT | WILL NOT FADE OUT There is aothing Like them for Btrength, Coloring ot Featoesa OU Paskage BADALE TWO efany other Dye ta the marked, try it!
