(From a 78taff, Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, July S. (Special.) George
6hereophemopotous'and;twenty-nlne other
Greeks living In Omaha," have filed a com.-,
plaint before Labor Commissioner. Guye
alleging that one of their fellow country
men, '.Louis Cokos, has - deceived them
basely and that lie has fraudulently ex
torted money from , them in - return for
certain employment. .They-. oharge that
Cokes Js an employment ' agent and also
an employe of the Union Paclflo railroad.
Inasmuch as the bill giving the labor com
missioner jurisdiction in such cases was
not passed at the late session of the state
legislature. Commissioner Guye has no
authority in the matter.
The petition sent to Mr. Guye recites that
Cokos receives from tt to 8 each for ob
taining employment for Greek workmen
and that they have to pay that amount
themselves. The petitioners say that the
nature of the employment offered them Is
grossly misrepresented, , that oftentimes
they do not get the Jobs for which they
pay over their fees, and that oftentimes
they have been "fired" after only a few
days' employment and frequently the
money earned is Insufficient to meet the
expenditure to Cokos. Further, the Greeks
say, that Cokos holds them up tor . other
contributions, telling them that they cannot
retain their positions unless they dig up
to mm instanter. They allege that large
sums Of money have been paid to their
fellow countryman in this way and they
claim that it haa all been obtained through
rraua and misrepresentation.
Many of the petitioners could not sign
their hemes in English, but made their
crosses or Greek letters to show where they
aaa attached their signatures.
Greek bootblacks who petitioned Mayor
Dahlman to olose shoe-shining emporiums
en the Sabbath, have sent a copy of their
request to Labor Commissioner Guye. The
question of Sunday labor came up In the
supreme court some time ago from Douglas
county, but the decision given did not give
an opinion on other than common labor
on that day.

covered.
COREY, Mich., July 4. A romance of the
days when muoh of Michigan waa a wil
derness was brought to' light today when
boys ot the South Bend. Ind., Y. M. C. A.
summer camp, while digging a hole for a
flag staff, brought up. a rusty Iron blx
containing pistols, books and several docu
ments. ' '
The lock could not be opened so the bot
tom ot.the chest was broken. First the
discoverers found two -rusty pistols of an
ancient pattern, resting In d bed of flax.
Then followed a motley .collection. Includ
ing a plain gold ring, apparently the wed
ding pledge of - some pioneer bride; a
liver cased watch of Swiss manufacture;
a small dagger and a rust stained hunting
knife; ' leather bound books dating from
1767 to 1819, among them a Bible, "Chil
dren of the Abbey" and "Book ot Pas
sion." There were several school books and a
number of pennies bearing dates from 1781
to 1854, samples of silver, lead and copper
ores, arrow heads and a collection ot
pebbles. Deeds ' dating back as tar as
1739 related to property t Plymouth, Conn.
Text of tlareir Letter.
A letter found In the chest read in part
as follows:
"This chest is the. property of Heslkla
Thomas, formerly of ' New .England, later
of the Michigan wilderness, . a apl ritualist
of God, believing my spirit still roams,
over the lakes in the full moon seasons,
guarding all -my valuable deposited pos
sessions, for they are many and varied.
God gave me many wonderful secrets, but
because of the great sin Hs took them
all away but one ths least of them the
turning of sable stones Into gold.
i "I have buried this secret by - the body
of old Duckwlng in the big swamp, God
rest my soul. God' has' filled the earth
with gold." Devil, do not believe it but
has He not promised 'seek and flndr The
blue hiron la wise and the night owl, but
man Is an ass, for he walketh not in' the
ways of the Most High." .
A little of, the story of the peculiar old
hermit, Thomas, Is known here.. Oeorge
Knevels, who lives In a, portion of a
house built by .Thomas, says that aa a
boy he recollects finding carefully ac
creted collections of pebbles in the house.
It Is said that Thomas' wife deserted him
and that his queerness became: noticeable
about the same time. He- roamed the
woods "conversing" with trees and anl-
-mal. and believed he could transmute cer
tain stones' Into gold. - After selling his
home here Thomas moved to an island In
the lake; to which in one part of his letter,
he refers to as the "abode ot the seven
devils."" ' ' . ,
Hunt for Other Chests.
According to another letter found In the
box, there is another chest buried on the
Island. A map . gives Instructions or di
rections for finding a third chest the key
to which is said jo be hidden in a tree.
The whole neighborhood Is excited oVer a
search,' ' immediately - begun, for the re
maining cheati. ',.'.
Other parts , of the ' letter in which
Thomas revealed his secrets read:
"The Island la doomed forever aa It is
the abiding place of the seven . devils.
Beware; fish die, birds drop as they pass
and! man disappears W ' the ce,vern6la
depths ot Ttho- cave." t
Another excerpt ' ot the letter possibly
refers to his recent spouse:
' "The lucky atones arrived from the evil
one. The knife la that. which drunk his
life's blood and is oarsed forever. The
books were her possession from the older
days before the great shadow fell. The
man may claim hia papers; Duokwing
