Riddleherger 31 were for sale in northern markets During the past two days telegrams ware received here by basking and brokersge firms from Boeton and New York asking for prices of Virginia 3s of 1882 dos 1982 mterest January July The number' of bonds being asked for it was found that there were no coupons outstanding of the bonds named which gave rise to a suspicion that something was wrong A Boston firm then shipped $14000 of Virginia 34 as described These were received here this morning and were taken to the state offices for hives tigation They were at once prononced fraudulent bonds with forged names attached A New York firm offered a similar amount to that of the Boston firm and a $1090 bond of the same description was received by another firm of brokers here making in all $N000 in bonds with all the coupons attached The explanation arrived at is that during the legislative session of 1882 the Kendall Bank Note Company of New York engraved bonds for the entire issue of Riddlebergers under the authority of the legislature and they were well executed and wets accepted by the state but they were atibeequently rejected and a contract for executing the bonds was given to the American Bank Note Crmpany of New York The Kendall Company however shipped the bonds in three boxes one of which the state refused to receive The other two they took and paid the charges on them 'file first box containing bonds of tbe denomination of $1000 each from the number 1 to 433 were returned to New York The Kendall Company refused to take them beck It is cow believed that this box of bonds was sold by the exprem company afterwards as an unclaimed packsge It evidently fell into the hands of sharper who forged the name of Rively treasurer" and A Smith second auditor" and proceeded to diepoee of them It is not known what amount of the spurious bonds are on the market Rively was the treasurer but I A Smith is a fiction Commonwealth Attorney Witt of this-city at the instance of the sinking fund commissioners of the state has taken stops to prevent the $1500Z) of forged Ridd'eherger bonds of Virginia sent here by Blake Bros Ca of Boston and a firm in BsItimore from being returned It its the intention of the suthorit es to trace op the author of these forgeries and-the law officers of the city desire that the bonds shall be re tamped evidence in any proceeding' that may be instituted agaiast the perpetrators of the bungling attempt at forgery It is believed that these worthless bonds have been placed in other markets of the country Mr Edgar Allen the cnuesel here for the Kendall Bank Note Company of New York last evening received a telegram from Mr George Kendall of the concern in which be said that he had that day heard of the sale of large blocks of these bonds printed by their establishment for the state of Virginia fhis information may enable the authorities to trace up these forgeries Portection of the age in the medical line is the liquid fruit
