Buchanan was able to command fabulous advances from business concerns by misrepresentations.

He was always careful 'enough to preserve a good reputation in his local vicinity and with that standing obtained excellent letters of recommendation, from Congressmen, Senators and public men in Virginia. West Virginia, North Carolina and Tennessee, which heusedto a great advantage In defrauding numerous concerns that were jlooklng for agents to handle their goods in this particular section of the country. When a position was obtained by Buchanan, it was his practice to secure as much advance money and as large a line of samples as possible and usually gave his employer a promissory note or indemnity bond signed by himself and wife. He then sold the samples, spent the money and wrote letters to his employer claiming either that he had not received the goods, that he had been robbed, or that he would call personally In a short time and make reimbursement. Neither Buchanan nor his wife owned any property and in no known instance has an employer been able to recover on the promissory note or bond.

The Inspector in his investigation found that forty-four concerns located in various parts of the country had been defrauded by Buchanan in the above manner. Practically every concern which had secured Buchanan's services were of the opinion that they had secured the services of a most valuable man as their traveling salesman when as a matter of fact he traveled for none of them, but spent their money, disposed of all the samples that he could get by sale or by pawn with brokers In Richmond and Roanoke, Virginia. It was developed In the Investigation that Buchanan has been obtaining goods under false pretenses through the mails and otherwise for a period of about fifteen years. He has been convicted only once; at that time he was sentenced at Norfolk, Virginia. May, 1906, to three months In jail and fined $100 for defrauding 8.

In discussing the tin deposits of this area Mr. Graton sketches briefly the general geology, gives a short history of tin mining In the Carollnas, and describes the occurrence and character of the ore. The tin mineral Is cassiterlte, or tin dioxide, which Is found In pegmatite, a granitic rock that occurs in dikes in a belt extending northeastward from Cherokee county across Cleveland and Gaston counties to Lincoln county. The report Includes a description of the tin mines and of the methods of mining and extraction. When the early Spanish explorers came to America the Indians showed them rich nuggets and ornaments of gold which came from the southern Appalachian region.

At the close of the eighteenth century gold was discovered In South Carolina and thirty years later it was found In North Carolina. In the year 1829 gold to the value of $3,500 was mined In South Carolina and from that time until the Civil War gold mining was carried on In the Carollnas with profit. The total gold production of the region has probably been about The gold deposits of the Carollnas re of many types, all of which are described by Mr. Graton: The distribution of the gold, the genesis of the deposits, and the mining developments are fully discussed.

When the offi cers arrived Young was lying on the floor with a bullet hole in his breast, but the would-be assassin was no where to be found, nor has he yet been located. The wounded man was at once taken to Leonard Hospital for treatment, bdt the authorities there last night stated that they did not think he could possibly recover.
