First Aspost of Ne Ascsiver,
y. y. Cock.
smsnsnse Frauds disclosed.

y =
The Chicago Tribune, Of Dec. lst.,
contains the report in full of the Re-
ceiver In the case of Chicago's last
grand insurance swindle Of western
people. We have not space for the
full report and give only an epitome
of II.
It seems that by tho laws Of the
state that $l0O, 900 Of paid up capital
II required to start = company, and
which must always be kept good
The result Of the investigation show.
cd that this capital was never paid in.
In order however to make showing
Of having It up ct each examination
made by the proper State officers, the
ring running the bogus concern, bor-
rowsd money for . short time and
whom the examination was over the
loan was lifted. Notwithstanding
this sham showing, the officers swore
to their returns regularly as having
paid up capital.
s The names Of these Swindlers are
John Reid, +. r. billiard, Sylvester
Lind, =. s. Skinner, Al. Haines, w.
w. Pancoast, w. b. Sherard, N. s.
Cheesborough, L. r. billiard, "A. w.
Edwards and one Ryan. Four of
these chaps have been indicted for
perjury.
The report further discloses that$l96,-
600 Of the receipts have disappeared and
no account where this large fund has
gone to, can DO found. The re-
port discloses ! long dark story or
rascality. First our people were
swindled with the Republic ms. Co.,
next the Lamar, and now this Protec-
ton Life. The agent of the latter Co.
was inclined to get angry with M
when we expressed to him years ago,
that we feared II was . swindle, and
we now give : general and standing
warning to our readers that they give
. wide berth to al new insurance
companies promising such big things,
which have IN abiding place in
Chicago.

ness all through the central and vest
ern Btates, and wherever best known

Mr.. Buchanan the agsnt for their

been with the house for several years,
is thoroughly acquainted with the
business and will be pleased to swap
stories and smoke a cigar with any
person in the trade who may find it

cigars manufactured by this firm,
which Mr.. B. will sell TO You in any
quantity from one box TO 100000

man who hangs oni to the coat-tails

which there Ia much to receive and In
which there Is nothing to do; who
cares nothing for the interest of the
