A CLAIM AND BOUNTY RING.

Tli eft oyMllltin Uf-

(From the New York Bun, April 2's.J
Frodoriclc W. Smith, a Government
claim ugont, wus recently arretted on
chargo of fraudulently attempting to ob
tain pay and bounty monev nl leered to bo
duo tho father of Kmll Ling, n deceased
Union Soldier. An investigation by De
tective Nowcomb showed that T.lng had
no fathdr living, ond that n proper claim
hud been filed by his mother.. Smith at
tho timo gave $s000 bail, but tilling to ap
pear for examination before commissioner
Davenport was rearrested nnd his bail
raised to $10,000. Smith then mado a full
confession to Col. Whitley, implicating
over twenty porsonr, whom ho said hud,
formed themselves Into a ring to cheat tho
Governmont by preparing and printing
forged claims purporting to cmnnuto
from relatives ot dead soldiers for bounty
money and back pay duo tho heirs of said
eoldiors.
Unon this confession Henry M. Karplcs,
formorly Ho ut. colonel of the Fifty-second
xt -v-. i- i . :,!.t 1
iiuw loriw vouinicurc, was um-inin uuu
taken boforo Commisslotior Davenport on
charge of being ono or tho principal oper
ators in theso frauds. Ono tpecitled chargo
against Karplos was that ho signed tlio
namo of Jacob Schrclbor to n claim for
bounty money nliogod to bo duo to Paul
Schrclbor, formerly second lieiltonntit, of
company A, Fifty-second Now Vork vol
unteers. In this claim Jacob was de
scribed as tho father of Paul, and tho
rightful heir to his claim. From tho in
vestigation mado it docs not appear that
Karplcs over suw Mich it person its Jacob
Schrelbcr, or know of his. existence. Tho
Commissioner held ICnrples for examina
tion in default ofsflO.000.
Tho noxt man nrrostcd was a notary
