How hojicrubbcd and washed $43.
(mki In bills and dreamed of ntiilll
plying It many times In. a muglc
money press, only to awake and
find his money and "alchemist"
friend both gone,' was told to the
nroHeciiting attorney here today by
1'. I-', lioherty, Butte, Montana.
While Doherty was telling the
Htory of how h,o was swindled, ex
tradition papers were Issued In
(Hympla today asking return from
lntr.lt of C If. Baxter, alias "The
f'ount." charged with the theft of
lioherty'n money here last Decem
ber. 1'ollco hero declare Baxter is
an International confidence man.
"Work Idists J 2 Hour ,
Doherty told how he scrubbed
and washed his $1000 bills, rubbed
them botween his knuckles, wrung
them dry. only to e told to go
through the process again, lie de-
scrlljod 12 long hours of this hard
work to prepare tile money for a
magic money press, which, u
rtrangpr ho had met In Butte had
told him would multiply his bills.
Doherty said that whllo ho
worked tlic stranger looked en nnd
g.'ivn him a drink to "brace "him
up." .Instead ho fell asleep and
when he awoke all but $100 of his
$43,000 was gone. Doherty said
oven then he- thought for a time
the rest of his money was In the
magic press under the $100 bill on
top. .
He called in rutto business
partner and after waiting for some
time they decided to open the press.
i no iono iuo bill was all that wa
found and a search for the stranger
was fruitless.
Magic Formula Rcnealod
The swindle started In Butte.
Doherty told Prosecuting Attorney
Charles I-eavy, He waj consulted
on a business deal by a stranger,
nnd a third man, also a stranger,
was Introduced, and revealed tht
"formula" for multiplying cur
rency. Doherty said that after
demonstrations on smaller bills they
v.nmm io npoKane lor tno final
"miracle."
Oovornor Hartley Issued the ex

Jones Gives Thought
Mr. Jonos, who was in Portland
today working on a atate income
tax. is giving his gubernatorial as
pirations a second thought. When
Charles Hall and Secretary of State
Kozer were probablo candidates.
Mr. . Jones had figured out his
course of action and planned being
a caiullda to on a state income tax
platform. The decision of Mr. Hall
and Mr. Kozer not to mix up In the
contest has given a different at
mosphere. Mr. Jones still feels that
he would cut a wide swath among
tho Grangers but he also realties
that with Mr. Kozer out of the run
ning, Mr. Patterson is stronger than
before.
In the camp of Senator Stanfield
all is not serene. The principal
worry his advisers are now exper
iencing is the kick back over sen
ator Stanfleld's sponsoring Wallace
McCamant's confirmation as a fed
eral Judge.
From the day that Judge Mc-
Camant on the witness stand in
Washington, D. C, declared that
Roosovelt was "not a good Ameri
can. ' the titan no id camp nns noon
on nervous edge.' From all parts
of the state have como protests
against tho confirmation oC Judge
McCamnnt. The field men of the
Stanfield forces have brought in
the . news that farmers, business
men and others are objecting and
that this objection is including the
senator.
