lads a Confession.
81'. PAUL, Minn, Aug. &—"Bend me to the
penitentiaryl No mercy to due me. i do not
ask for any. I've been weak and foolish, and
I can only say that i deserve my fate. No
one can ever know how I regret that I have
violated the confidence placed in me by Mr.
Blaisdell."
Thus spoke J. Frank Collom, the young
and prominent Minneapolis attorney, while
tears rolled down his cheeks and he shook
likes leaf, after having made a confemlon
that will clamfy him among the kings of
forgers of the century. He is the perpetrator
of the meet remarkable swindle in the history
of crime in lianeeota. He huforged the
signature of John '1‘, Blaiedell, one of the
wealthiest and best known capitalists of Min-
neapolis, to check», drafts and notes to the
stupendous amount of $294,“
new the Crime Came to Light.
For a long time Collom has been Mr. Blair:-
deli’s attorney, and although his forgeriee
have been going on for about a year they
were discovered only Tuesday by the merest
accident. A short time ago a cashier in one
of the banks asked a relative of Mr. lllnis—
dell how much paper he had indoraed for
(Jollom. On being told that the amount was
815,000 the cashier said that there must be
aomething wrong, as there was something
like 82%,“)0 of It afloat. An investigation
followed and the developments were most
astounding. (.‘ollom was confronted with
the proofs of his rascality and at once ad-
mitted all. He was called into the ofliee of
Attorney 1“. F. Davin, where in the presence
of detectives he told the whole story.
The Amount ls Nearly 3300.000.
Afr. Blaiedell positively refused to make
public any of the facts in connection with
the case, but from other parties it is leanicd
that the money which Collom secured on the
forged notes came mainly from the banks,
and that he has raked in in this manner near-
ly $300,000. This money he issaid to have
invested in real estate, although it ismore
thanprobahle that the major portion of It
has gone into the palatial residence on Blain-
dell avenue, where the young forger lives in
fine style (employing several servants) with
his charming wife and two children.
Trying to Save the Forger.
At 11 a. m. Collom, his father,
Thompson, his father-in-law, and Josiah
Josiah
Thompson, Jr., his brother-in-law, held a
consultation with a view to making good the
amount and saving the young sconndrel from
state prison. A meeting of the directors of i
the BeCurity bank, where Collom obtained
some of the money, was also held in the fore- I
noon to discuss the situation. After the
meeting it was reported that the bank holds
but $23,000 of the paper. W. D. Clark, A.
E. Merrill and Eustis Bros. are said to hold
large amounts, and much has gone to note
brokers in New York and Boston.
Mr. Blaisdell, the victim, has examined the ,
notes for $23,000 held by the Security bank ,
and has assumed the sole responsibility of the
entire amount, so that the bank will lose
nothing.
The Cause of the Crime.
Collom, in an interview, said he had in~
vested all the money in what he considered
good real estate speculations, and that he
would have pulled out all right if the forger-
ies had not been discovered. The exact date
on which the forgcries began is not known,
but they grew out of business relations be-
tween the principal and Mr. Blaisdell. They
were very friendly, and in order to help his
friend out of certain business transactions
Mr. Blaisdeil over a year ago readily ad-
vanced Collom $15,000. The largest notes
were forged while Mr. Blaisdell was out of
the city. The latter knew nothing about the
forgeries until he ran across a note for 894,-
Oil). looking into the matter he made the
astounding discoveries related above. The
affair has created a most profound sensation.
There Will Be No Compromise.
Collom's lawyer has made a proposition to
settle with the creditors at .50 cents on the
dollar. This the creditors refused. They
will to the criminal to the full extent
of the law, and will demand his arrest at
once. C. J. Rockwood, Coilom’s law partr
partner: “I would have intrusted Mr. Col-
lom, so far as honor goes, with all I have or
hope to have. I received my first intimation
of the trouble last night. He has lived here
twenty years, and during my business con-
nection with him I have always found him
reliable. He was a hard worker, He neither
drank nor used tobacco in any form. I
know nothing of his business matters except
that he has owned a good deal of real estate."

DESPERATE COKERB.
Ten Thousand of Them lleet—A Deputy
Shot at Braddock.
floor-I'm“, Pa. Aug. flu-The cokers at the
”date!” works of J. M. Bchoonmaker have
joined the strike. This, together with the
information that the operators at (iallitaeu
had granted the advance asked for filled the
strikers with joy and renewed confidence.
At noon k‘r'tck & (to. were in secret confer-
ence with the leaders of the strike. It is re-
ported that Frick & Co. have offered an ad-
vance of 10 per cent. over former wages, but
that the strikers will not accept the terms.
The last otTer, however, is 33% per cent. of
anadvauce over that made previously. It
is also reported that McClure do (:0. have
asked for a compromise on a 10 per cent. ad-
vance, but this, it issaid, will also be refused.
The mass meeting new in session is the
largest ever held in the coke region. About
10,1ll0 strikers are present. A resolution was
adopted demanding uniform prices for all
grades of labor; that one cent per bushel
shall hereafter be the minimum rate, with
a proportionate advance for all day labor
and coke drawing. There is not a car of
coke to be had in the entire region, and can
from western iron and steel mills are stand-
ing on the side tracks of all the works. it is
stated here that some of the works in Ohio
and Illi‘bl are badly crippled on account of
the strike.
A Deputy Shot at Braddock.
Bummer, l’a., Aug. a—An attempt was

nace by bringing in new men. Several had

at 12:30 o'clock others got 0“ the train at
Konting station and were met by deputies.
The strikers followed and opened fire with a
volley of stones These not having the de-
sired effect, pistols were used and one of the
deputies was shot, The injured man was
carried to the furnace oillco. The extent of
his in juries could not be ascertaintxl

O'rrawa, Aug. 8.——Tlie Dominion cabinet
was in semen for four hours. The Black
Diamond case came up, but it was decided to
take no further action until the official re-
port reached Ottawa. The members of the
cabinet are not dispmod to talk freely about
the socailed higlihanded policy of the Uni-
tcd States in Behring sea. One of them,
however, went so far as to admit that Eng-
land Will interfere without delay. Repre
mutations in regard toreceut events were
made to Lord Salisbury, but it is only natu—

before the imperial government had fully
considered the situation. Intelligence of

train on the Duluth and iron Range railroad
had attained the frightful speed of fill miles
an hour before being wrecked. An interest
ing account of the wild ride is given in a prl~
vate letter by Superintendent Sidney '1‘. Pope,
of the road, formerly a Iloehm man. He
wrote to a friend as follows:
"I had been up the road the day before,
and coining back had my car hitched on to
the rear of the ore train. All the cars had
been newly equipped with air brakes, which
worked all right until we reached the big bill
which extends back from here (Two Harbors,
Mich.) about twelve miles. When we were
about three miles from the summit the air
gave out and the train ran away. Iwns
asleep at the time it started, and when we
had gone about three miles the conductor
woke me up. We were going then faster than
I over rode before, and, knowing that the
train was sure to ham. 1.. . tww-l: w a... on cut

train was out of sight like a flash.
“We followed up slowly, and in about one
and a half miles found them in a ditch. The
fireman and head brakoman, both of whom
were on the engine, were not scratched even;
the engineer had one leg broken, but it indo-
iug nicely. It is a wonder that the engineer
was not killed,” the rods on the engine
broke and smahed the cab almost to plans
He thinks he fell through the lmttnm of the
rub just as the engine left the truck. The
machinery of the enginois most of it liter-
ally bumed up owing to the friction of the
great speed, and the engineer any» that the
last part of the way the lower part of his cu

fire. Of course it was only a guest, but i
don’t think the statement made that the
train was running lit) miles was much of an
exaggeration. ’l‘wothirds of the cars weroa
total wreck. If the speed was 110 miles an
hour and the train went but one Inilo and a
half after the car wascut off it may be called
a close call for tho occupants of the car."—-

A Clever English Rascal.

before the French exposition opened he

Unlucky Tourists.
Mount Etna has been ascended by a party
of Americans under very unpleasant circum-
stances. They insisted on taking the ascent
during a wind storm, when dust and clouds
covered the mountain, but took the precau~
tioa of carrying some brandy in case any of
the party required support. Unfortunately,
they gave the bottle to the guides to carry,
and the Italians indulged in repeated nips on
the road until they became perfectly drunk,
and lost their way. So the unlucky Ameri-
cans spent three days and nights wandering
amongst the lava beds till they were rescued
by a march party—European better.
