What could be the meaning of this meek acceptance of a theft so flagrant that the whole town was talking about it ? What was Victor Dorn 's `` game '' ? He discovered the next day . The executive committee of the League worked all night ; the League 's printers and presses worked from six o'clock in the morning until ten . At half-past ten Remsen City was flooded with a special edition of the New Day , given away by Leaguers and their wives and sons and daughters -- a monster special edition paid for with the last money in the League 's small campaign chest . This special was a full account of the frauds that had been committed . No indictment could have been more complete , could have carried within itself more convincing proofs of the truth of its charges .
