CHARGES AGAINST BEWICK MULTIPLY Blind Man Declared to Have Been Among Victims of Man Held in Portland. SOME OF EFFORTS FAIL Colorado Deputy Sheriff Who Made Arrest Says He Came Xear Ixjs Ing 960,000 In Trade for Property In Iowa. DENVER, Sept. 27. (Special.) W. H. Rewick. arrested at Portland. Or will be brought back to Denver to answer charges of attempting to fleece residents of this city out of upwards of $100,000 In cash and prop erty. He is charged with having se cured approximately $10,000, Including $7000 from W. H. Elle, a blind man. living at the Tourist Hotel. E. P. Dunlap, a Deputy Sheriff of Adams County, one of tbe officers who ' arrested Rewick, says he traded to Rewick property worth $60,000 In Colo rado for land la Cedar County, Iowa. Had not Dunlap gone back to Iowa and looked over the land and talked to the real owner he would have lost his all. Dunlap asserts the deeds were forged, as well as the notary's signature. Home and Restanrant Lout. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Eastgate, who had a restaurant, lost their home and restaurant at the same time. They traded it to Rewick for land In Dent County, Missouri, which he did not own, but they did not discover the fraud until Rewick had taken posses sion of the restaurant. He sold It for $110 to M. Poise the same day he bought it from Eastgate. The lowest estimate of tbe value of the restaurant was $1000. Miss Clara Houston was about to trade land In Colorado to Rewick for & stock of drugs at Omaha. Before delivering the deed she decided to in vestigate and says she found that Re wick did not own land in any pari of the country. She had the deeds In her possession, just as did the others who made complaint. Mine Swindles Charared. Rewick. who is charged with having ODerated mine swindles in Colorado in 1906. when he was first arreBted under the name of C Burnham, appeared in Denver last July. He had with him a woman he said was his wife. He was negotiating with his landlady, Mrs. Traeger, for a trade of her rooming house for land in Pennsylvania. The deal fell through. Rewick brought A. Hunsrerford here from Crawford, Neb., for the purpose of trading to him the Cedar County, Iowa, land, when Hun perford telegraphed to Iowa and word came back that Rewick must be a bunco steerer. He remarked: "Some body will go to the penitentiary for this." .Application for requisition papers was drawn up by District Attorney Rush today and Rewick will be brought back as soon as possible. Dunlap saved his land by having a stay of transfer filed by his attorney after the deeds had been turned over to Rewick. - s IRISH BOYS AMBITIOUS Xew Danger Threatening EmeraloW Isle, Professions Overcrowded. DUBLIN. Sept. 2". (Special.) A new danger now threatens Ireland. It is a tendency towards too much educa tion. If such condition of things can .be possible. With the facilities follow ing the establishment of a national university every Irish father now de sires to send his children along to Dublin to graduate, with the result that shortly there will be no "hewers of wood or drawers or water in tfte country at alL Already the professions are over crowded, but there Is a scarcity of per sons who will tackle laborious work. This Is one of the reasons why agricul ture is not making the headway that was anticipated a year or two back. Those who are not going In for law, medicine or teaching are joining the artisan class through the aid of the technical schools, which are now flour ishing up and down the land. Every Irish boy wants to be a doctor, a lawyer or a government clerk, with the result that these professions are no longer the monopoly of the sons of the wealthy classes.
